UFC 256 ‘Embedded,’ No. 3: Brandon Moreno is having a joyous fight week

The UFC returns Saturday night with its final pay-per-view of the year, UFC 256, which features a quick turnaround flyweight title fight as top billing.

UFC 256 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and streams on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.

In the main event, Deiveson Figueiredo will defend his 125-pound championship against Brandon Moreno just 21 days since both men last fought. And in the co-main event, Tony Ferguson looks to get back to his winning ways when he meets rising contender Charles Oliveira in a pivotal lightweight clash.

The third episode of “Embedded” follows some of the big names. Here’s the UFC’s description from YouTube:

Junior Dos Santos arrives on a late-night flight. Champion Deiveson Figueiredo hits the sauna; opponent Brandon Moreno sings through training and PT. Jacare Souza starts his quarantine. Tony Ferguson checks in with his not-coach.
