The UFC 321 broadcast team is set with Joe Rogan sitting out the event with the card taking place in Abu Dhabi on Oct. 25.
Rogan doesn’t travel to international events so he’ll be absent for the second pay-per-view card of the month. In his place steps Laura Sanko, who is set to provide color commentary for the show headlined by Tom Aspinall defending his heavyweight title against Ciryl Gane.
UFC 321 serves as Sanko’s second appearance on a pay-per-view broadcast after she became a regular color commentator for the promotion back in 2023. She previously worked the broadcast for UFC 293 in Australia.
Sanko is joined by Jon Anik doing play-by-play and UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier also doing color commentary for the card.
Veteran broadcaster John Gooden is set to serve as the in-house reporter for the event.
UFC officials confirmed the broadcast plans to MMA Fighting on Wednesday.
In addition to Aspinall vs. Gane, the vacant strawweight title is also going up for grabs in the co-main event as Virna Jandiroba takes on Mackenzie Dern to crown a new champion in the wake of Zhang Weili relinquishing her belt to move to flyweight.
With the card in Abu Dhabi, UFC 321 has an earlier start time with the pay-per-view main card kicking off at 2 p.m. ET and the prelims starting at 10 a.m. ET on Oct. 25.
