UFC 330: Makhachev vs. Machado Garry adds top middleweight prospect to lineup

The UFC has announced a growing lineup for UFC 330 on August 15 in Philadelphia, headlined by welterweight champion Islam Makhachev's title defense against Ian Machado Garry. Four new matchups were officially confirmed on Friday, expanding an undercard that already features strawweight champion Mackenzie Dern facing top contender Gillian Robertson in the co-main event.

Makhachev seeks to extend his UFC-record 17-fight winning streak in his first title defense at 170 pounds against the rising Garry. The undercard additions include several intriguing bouts across multiple weight classes. Middleweight prospect Mansur Abdul-Malik (9-1-1), looking to bounce back from his first professional loss, faces veteran Dustin Stoltzfus (16-8). Longtime welterweight contender Vicente Luque (24-12-1) continues his middleweight experiment against Tresean Gore (6-4), seeking his second consecutive win at 185 pounds. Veteran welterweights Geoff Neal (16-8) and Chidi Njokuani (25-12, 1 NC) are set to clash, while welterweights Myktybek Orolbai (16-2-1) and Jeremiah Wells (13-4-1) round out the newly announced bouts.
