The four headliners of UFC 330 gathered for a pre-fight press conference in Philadelphia on Thursday ahead of their bouts, with the fighters set to answer media questions and face off on stage.

Welterweight champion Islam Makhachev, widely regarded as the sport's No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter, headlines the card against Ian Machado Garry in a title defense. Makhachev recently moved up to 170 pounds and dominated Jack Della Maddalena to claim the belt, but faces a considerable challenge in Garry, who carries a 17-1 overall record and an unblemished 10-1 UFC resume.

The co-main event features strawweight champion Mackenzie Dern making her first title defense against fellow grappler Gillian Robertson. Dern captured the vacant 115-pound title with a victory over Virna Jandiroba and has won three consecutive fights. Robertson, meanwhile, arrives on a five-fight winning streak that includes impressive victories over Amanda Lemos, Marina Rodriguez, and Michelle Waterson-Gomez, though this marks her first opportunity to compete for UFC gold.

The press conference, held in Philadelphia, began at 6 p.m. ET and gave fans and media a chance to hear from the event's top competitors before Saturday's fights.
