As UFC begins their journey into what has to be considered one of the most fan-friendly weekends in the history of the promotion, they have started the "Embedded" rollout for their back-to-back-to-back sold out events in Las Vegas, Nevada next Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
On Saturday, UFC premiered their special hour-long "UFC 194 Embedded" show on FOX, which gave an in-depth look at the biggest of the three events this weekend. UFC 194 features two title fights, as in the co-main event of the lone pay-per-view event of the weekend, Chris Weidman will defend his UFC Middleweight Title against highly regarded contender Luke Rockhold, while linear UFC Featherweight Champion Jose Aldo and interim UFC Featherweight Champion Conor McGregor will finally meet inside the Octagon to determine the undisputed 145-pound champion of the UFC. The pay-per-view will take place inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Prior to UFC 194, UFC will present the second of their three events this coming weekend, as the top two Featherweights not named Aldo or McGregor, Chad Mendes and Frankie Edgar, will meet to determine the next challenger for the man who emerges as the lone 145-pound champion of the UFC. The Mendes-Edgar fight headlines The Ultimate Fighter 22 Finale event, which emanates from The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, December 11th.
Finally, featured above is episode one of UFC Fight Night 80 Embedded, which gives an all-access, behind-the-scenes look at Rose Namajunas and Paige VanZant as they head into their fight at the first of the three events this weekend -- UFC Fight Night 80. The Namajunas-VanZant bout will serve as the main event of the card, which will air live on UFC Fight Pass on Friday, December 10th from The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. Episodes two and three of UFN 80 Embedded can be seen below.
