When Megan Olivi revealed her UFC broadcast preparation process

Megan Olivi, a key figure in UFC broadcasting since 2010, shared insights into her meticulous preparation process in April last year. Known for her on-camera poise, Olivi revealed that while she occasionally uses a teleprompter for special shows like UFC Connected, her usual approach involves writing, memorizing, or improvising her lines.

Responding to a fan’s query on Instagram, Olivi explained:

"@sovigor, thank you! For this show only there is a prompter. For everything else - all broadcasts and desk work it's all my writing and memorization. Or off the cuff."
