Las Vegas, February 27, 2026 – Paramount, a Skydance Corporation (NASDAQ: PSKY), and UFC, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, today announced long-term contract extensions with three cornerstone members of its broadcast team: Megan Olivi, Paul Felder, and Michael Bisping. The trio will continue delivering comprehensive fight coverage on Paramount+, the official home of UFC broadcasts in the United States and Latin America.
A mainstay of UFC programming since 2013, veteran reporter Megan Olivi will continue her role providing in-depth fighter interviews, feature storytelling, and live event reporting. Widely respected for her professionalism and connection to athletes, Olivi has become a fan favorite and also hosts several UFC-related programs, including the 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. “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.”
Former UFC lightweight contender Paul Felder will return as a color commentator and desk analyst, continuing to bring sharp technical insight and firsthand fight experience to broadcasts. Felder first joined the commentary team in 2017, calling his initial bouts while still competing as 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. This is the greatest sport in the world, and it’s an honor to help tell the stories of these athletes from the best seat in the house.”
UFC Hall of Famer and former middleweight champion Michael Bisping also re-upped his commitment as a color commentator and desk analyst. A key voice on UFC broadcasts since 2012, Bisping will continue providing elite fight IQ and analysis, while also contributing to Dana White’s Contender Series and Power Slap.
“I’m beyond proud and excited to say that I’ve re-signed with the UFC to continue my work as a color commentator,” said Bisping. “When I signed on The Ultimate Fighter back in 2005, I dreamed not only of being a champion, but also of remaining part of the sport after my career. This is a role I cherish deeply.”
With Olivi, Felder, and Bisping secured for the long term, UFC and Paramount+ reinforce their commitment to delivering expert analysis, compelling storytelling, and world-class coverage as the promotion continues its next chapter in the streaming era.
