Two titles will be on the line on Saturday when UFC 330 comes to Philadelphia. In the night's main event, Islam Makhachev will make the first defense of his welterweight championship when he faces Ian Machado Garry .
After conquering the lightweight division and making several defenses of the 155-pound championship, Makhachev jumped to the welterweight division, where he immediately won the championship with a dominant performance against Jack Della Maddalena .
Makhachev sits atop the UFC pound-for-pound rankings and is building a legacy that could rival Khabib Nurmagomedov's by the time Makhachev decides to hang up his gloves.
In the co-main event, Mackenzie Dern will put the women's strawweight championship on the line against Gillian Robertson . Dern won the vacant championship by defeating Virna Jandiroba at UFC 321. That win ran Dern's current winning streak to three.
Robertson has earned her shot at the belt by winning five fights in a row and now has her first opportunity to grab championship gold. Both fighters have promised the fight will have plenty of fireworks to get fans fired up.
Other familiar faces litter the card, which should provide plenty of action in front of some of the wildest sports fans in the world.
Here's how you can catch all the action on Saturday night from Philadelphia.
Date: Saturday, Aug. 15 | Location: Xfinity Mobile Arena -- Philadelphia Start times: Early prelims at 5:30 p.m. | Prelims at 7 p.m. | Main card at 9 p.m.
