Las Vegas, February 27, 2026 – The UFC and Paramount+ have announced exciting news for fight fans: long-term contract extensions with key broadcast team members Megan Olivi, Paul Felder, and Michael Bisping. This ensures continued, high-quality coverage of the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization on Paramount+, the official home for UFC broadcasts in the U.S. and Latin America.

Megan Olivi: A Decade-Plus of Dedication to the Sport

At the heart of this announcement is Megan Olivi, a veteran reporter who has been a fixture in the UFC world since 2013. Olivi will continue her crucial role providing insightful fighter interviews, compelling features, and dynamic live reporting during events. Her professionalism and dedication have made her a fan favorite, and she also hosts several popular UFC-related shows, including the acclaimed ‘Becoming A Fighter’ podcast.

“I am proud to have re-signed with the UFC, an organization I have been honored to represent for the past 13 years,” said Olivi. “During that time, I have had the privilege of witnessing and contributing to some of the most groundbreaking moments in the sport’s history. From a front-row seat, I’ve watched the UFC evolve into the global powerhouse it is today. The roster is filled with exceptional athletes, and telling their stories has been one of the greatest privileges of my career. I look forward to working alongside our incredibly talented production team as we help usher in this next era of the UFC. Both personally and professionally, this organization, and everyone connected to it, holds a truly special place in my heart.”

Felder and Bisping: Continuing Their Commentary Expertise

Joining Olivi in the extension are seasoned commentators Paul Felder and Michael Bisping. Felder, a UFC veteran, will return as a color commentator and desk analyst, bringing his high-level experience and sharp insights to UFC events. He began his commentary journey in 2017 during the first season of Dana White’s Contender Series while still an active fighter.

“I couldn’t be more excited to continue my commentary journey with UFC for years to come,” said Felder. “What began as an opportunity has grown into my life’s work and my true passion. I feel incredibly blessed to tell the stories of these athletes and call the action from the best seat in the house.”

UFC Hall of Famer and former middleweight champion Michael Bisping also returns as a color commentator and desk analyst. Bisping has been a vital part of the broadcast team since 2012 and will continue to contribute to Dana White’s Contender Series and Power Slap.

“I’m beyond proud and excited to say that I’ve resigned with the UFC to continue my work as a color commentator for the best combat sports promotion on the planet,” said Bisping. “This is a role I cherish and take very seriously, but it also allows me to still be involved with the sport that has given me so much.”
