Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will be holding its UFC 322 press conference today, streaming LIVE at 5 p.m. ET in the embedded video above. Hosted by UFC CEO Dana White, today’s UFC 322 media festivities
will feature event headliners Islam Makhachev and Jack Della Maddalena, who hook ’em up for the Aussie’s welterweight strap atop the UFC 322 pay-per-view (PPV) this Sat. night (Nov. 15, 2025) inside Madison Square Garden in New York City. In addition, reigning women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko takes the stage opposite former strawweight titleholder and fellow UFC 322 co-headliner Zhang Weili.
“Islam is moving up from 155 [after] absolutely tearing out the division, moving up to 170 chasing double champ status in Madison Square Garden where it’s been done so many times before,” former UFC bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley, said on YouTube. “GSP (Georges St-Pierre) did it. Conor [McGregor] did it. I don’t know if [Daniel] Cormier did it there or what, but that is a legendary place.”
“I don’t think Jack’s going to be that much bigger than Islam,” O’Malley continued. “I think they’re going to be probably pretty similar size. Height-wise, they seem very similar. Weight-wise, I don’t think it’s going to play that much of a role. This is a huge fight. I’m going to go with Islam. I think it’s going to be a close fight. I think he’s going to squeak out a close fight. God, I don’t know. I hate guessing fights, but I’m going to go with Islam.”
