Flyweight Charles Johnson will face Jose Ochoa at UFC 330 on August 15 in Philadelphia, yardbarker.com reported. The matchup was announced by Johnson on Instagram and joins a card headlined by Islam Makhachev's welterweight title defense against Ian Garry at Xfinity Mobile Arena. Johnson, a 19-9 veteran, has already competed three times in 2026.
He has alternated wins and losses in his last six fights, securing stoppage victories over Lone'er Kavanagh and current champion Joshua Van while dropping decisions to Asu Almabayev, Alex Perez, and Ramazonbek Temirov. Ochoa enters the bout after a unanimous decision win over Clayton Carpenter in May. The 25-year-old Peruvian prospect holds a 2-2 record since joining the UFC.
A women's strawweight title fight between Mackenzie Dern and Gillian Robertson is scheduled as the co-main event. The full UFC 330 card in Philadelphia is set to air on August 15.
