Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will be holding its UFC 330 pre-fight press conference today (Thurs., Aug. 13, 2026), streaming LIVE at 6 p.m. ET in the embedded video above. Leading the charge will be UFC 330 headliners Islam Makhachev and Ian Machado Garry, who collide for Makhachev’s welterweight strap in the Paramount+ main event this Sat. night (Aug. 15, 2026) inside Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Co-headliners Mackenzie Dern and Gillian Robertson will also be on the
dais, alongside emcee and UFC CEO Dana White.
“This guy (doesn’t) have some something special,” Makhachev told UFC.com. “He’s not a hard puncher. He’s not a good wrestler. He’s good fighter who have all skills. He (has) good striking, good wrestling, some maybe blue belt of jujitsu, but nothing special. And for me, it’s just different opponent who want to take my belt, and I do everything. I (am) working so hard (the) last couple of months to defend my belt.”
