UFC 330: Makhachev vs Machado Garry Set for Philadelphia
The UFC is returning to Philadelphia on Saturday for UFC 330: Makhachev vs Machado Garry, marking the first numbered event in the city in over 15 years. The event will be held at Xfinity Mobile Arena, the same venue where Justin Gaethje faced Edson Barboza in March 2019.
The main event features welterweight champion Islam Makhachev defending his title against Ian Machado Garry. Makhachev, who won the championship last November, is on a 16-fight winning streak, tying the record for the longest in UFC history. Garry, the No. 1 contender, has secured victories in his last five fights, showcasing his skills and marketability.
The co-main event pits Mackenzie Dern against Gillian Robertson for the strawweight title. Dern, a former champion in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, will defend her title for the first time after winning it last October. Robertson, on a five-fight winning streak, aims to leverage her grappling expertise in this matchup.
