The UFC returns to Las Vegas on Saturday for its third pay-per-view of the year with UFC 272, which means the “Embedded” fight-week video series is back to document what’s happening behind the scenes.
UFC 272 takes place at T-Mobile Arena. The main card streams on ESPN+ pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.
UFC 272 features a welterweight grudge match at the top of the bill as former best friends Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal square off in the night’s headliner. And in the new co-main event, former lightweight champion Rafael dos Ajos takes on Renato Moicano, who accepted the fight on four days’ notice after Rafael Fiziev was forced to withdraw.
The fifth episode of “Embedded” follows the featured fighters while they get ready for fight week. Here is the UFC’s description of the episode from YouTube:
“Rafael dos Anjos kicks off an unusual fight week. Renato Moicano and Edson Barboza train at the PI; Bryce Mitchell focuses on recovery and a pre-fight ritual. Jorge Masvidal and Colby Covington exchange unpleasantries at the press conference.”
