The UFC is back in its home stomping ground in Las Vegas on Saturday for UFC 248, and the promotion’s popular “Embedded” series returns to get you ready.
UFC 248 takes place Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.
In the main event, middleweight champion Israel Adesanya (18-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) puts his title on the line for the first time against challenger Yoel Romero (13-4 MMA, 9-3 UFC). In the co-feature, women’s strawweight champ Zhang Weili (20-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) defends her title against former champ Joanna Jedrzejczyk (16-3 MMA, 10-3 UFC).
The second episode of “Embedded” follows the big-name stars at the top of the card. Here’s the UFC’s description:
Champ Israel Adesanya chooses a car for each day of the week; challenger Yoel Romero does LA media and demos moves on Paige VanZant. UFC PI is a hub for UFC 248 fighters including champion Zhang Weili, Li Jingliang, Sean O’Malley and Drakkar Klose.
