The upcoming UFC 320 event is set to feature a familiar and highly anticipated broadcast team, including a prominent personality returning after an absence since June. Following a recent UFC Fight Night in Perth, Australia, the premier mixed martial arts organization returns to its home base at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for its next pay-per-view spectacle.
October 4 will see two championship bouts headline UFC 320. The main event features Alex Pereira challenging Magomed Ankalaev for the light heavyweight title, preceded by Merab Dvalishvili defending his bantamweight belt against Cory Sandhagen. These significant matchups, along with several other high-profile fights, will be called by a renowned trio.
Joe Rogan Returns to Commentary at UFC 320
Joe Rogan is back to lend his voice to UFC 320, joining the established commentary lineup. As UFC 320 marks the first pay-per-view event since August 16 – an occasion where Khamzat Chimaev dominated Dricus du Plessis in a middleweight clash – Rogan`s return is noteworthy. Known for exclusively commentating domestic numbered events, the popular podcaster was absent throughout September`s Fight Nights held in Paris, Las Vegas, and Perth.
For UFC 320, Rogan will resume his color commentary duties alongside Daniel Cormier. This event will be Rogan`s sole commitment for October, as the next pay-per-view is scheduled to take place overseas in Abu Dhabi. Completing the trio is lead play-by-play announcer Jon Anik, who will return to cageside after recently spearheading the broadcast for Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford on Netflix.
Megan Olivi Back as Roving Reporter for UFC 320
In addition to Rogan, Megan Olivi, the promotion`s widely recognized roving reporter and presenter, is also making her comeback to UFC 320 after an extended break of three months. Olivi`s last appearance was at UFC 317, where she was part of the team covering the event that saw Ilia Topuria defeat Charles Oliveira for the lightweight title. Her absence was due to maternity leave, with Heidi Androl and Charly Arnolt stepping in to cover UFC 318 and UFC 319, respectively.
