UFC 330 fight card expands with Turner, Magny and Neal added to Philadelphia card
The UFC has confirmed four new bouts for UFC 330 on August 15 in Philadelphia, headlined by Islam Makhachev's welterweight title defence against Ian Garry and Mackenzie Dern's strawweight title bout with Gillian Robertson.
The UFC has bolstered its August 15 card in Philadelphia with four additional bouts, bringing UFC 330’s fight card into sharper focus ahead of a title-heavy night anchored by Islam Makhachev and Mackenzie Dern.
Makhachev will defend his welterweight title against Ian Garry in the main event, while Dern puts her strawweight belt on the line against Gillian Robertson in the co-main event.
Among the newly confirmed additions, Jalin Turner makes his second appearance since a brief retirement when he faces Kaue Fernandes. Veteran welterweight Neil Magny is also back in action, set to meet Ramiz Brahimaj, while Geoff Neal takes on Chidi Njokuani in another welterweight contest. Mansur Abdul-Malik, looking to snap a losing run, will face Dustin Stoltzfus.
The card was already shaping up as one of the deeper events of the year. Ranked flyweights Erin Blanchfield and Jasmine Jasudavicius are scheduled to collide, Jeremiah Wells meets Myktybek Orolbai at welterweight, Vicente Luque faces Tresean Gore at middleweight, and veteran lightweight Edson Barboza is booked against Esteban Ribovics.
Prelims are scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. ET, with the main card getting underway at 9 p.m. ET.
