The upcoming
Ultimate Fighting Championship event has undergone a late
change, with Eduardo
Henrique stepping in to replace Jose Ochoa
at UFC
330.

Ochoa was reportedly forced out due to an injury, leaving Charles
Johnson without an opponent days before their bout at Xfinity
Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. However, the promotion quickly found
a replacement in Henrique, who will now make his UFC debut against
Johnson.

Jose Ochoa injury

Henrique (15-2) will return to action after nearly nine months
away. The former
Legacy Fighting Alliance flyweight champion last competed in
September 2025, earning a decision over An Tuan Ho
on
Dana White's Contender Series. However, the victory wasn't
enough for a UFC contract.

The fighter also appeared on Season 33 of “The Ultimate Fighterâ€
last year. Now, Henrique has the chance to make his UFC debut as a
late replacement in UFC 330.

Johnson (19-9) lost to Asu
Almabayev in his last Octagon appearance in June. His upcoming
bout will be his fourth UFC fight of 2026, making him the
promotion’s most active fighter this year. He is currently
averaging one bout every 98 days.

Despite the unexpected shakeup, UFC 330 remains a 12-fight card
capped off by two title fights.

While Mackenzie
Dern is a strong, independent woman, she prefers her man
running the show.

Dern puts her
Ultimate Fighting Championship strawweight title on the line
against Gillian
Robertson in the co-main event of UFC
330 on Aug. 15 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. Ahead
of the event, Dern addressed headliner Ian Garry's
recent comments about women running the world.

Mackenzie Dern discusses traditional relationships before her
UFC 330 title defense

Garry recently drew a variety of reactions from fans and fellow
fighters for saying that the world would be a better place if women
ran everything. However, the UFC women's strawweight champion
disagrees with Garry. Dern says that while women in her family are
strong, she comes from a traditional background. Dern likes being
protected and cared for by her man, though she wouldn't hesitate to
go to war alongside him if needed.

“I come from a little bit more traditional upbringing,†Dern said
at UFC 330 media day. “Obviously, the women in my family are super
strong and independent. And they taught me how to be a strong
woman. But I like the guy protecting, leading and doing that stuff.
And I like to just relax. If I need to go to war with him, I will.
But I'm a mommy. I think it's very good that we're strong women and
we don't depend on guys. But I like the man taking the lead.â€

Dern looks to defend her title for the first time since winning it
last year, while Garry challenges Islam
Makhachev for the welterweight championship, looking to snap
the Dagestani's historic win streak.
