Check out the third episode of Embedded for UFC 245.

UFC 245 is almost here, and as usual, Embedded is here as well. The show that gives you an inside look at the marquee contestants on PPVs has issued the third episode for this weekend’s big show in Sin City, and it serves as a brief introduction to the fighters at the top of the card.

We start off with Kamaru Usman in New York, laughing at Colby Covington. He does some media with Hot 97. He says he’d be lying if he didn’t feel a bit of pressure. Back in the car, he says that many people want him to stomp Colby and he won’t be able to deal with the his output. Usman heads to the airport to fly to Vegas.

Covington goes shopping across the street from the Trump Hotel. He uses a foot massage machine. He says the fans don’t love Usman, they just hate him (Colby) so much that he (Usman) is getting some attention.

Over at the Red Rock, Alexander Volkanovski gets fitted for his gear and gets a necklace from the UFC. Max Holloway signs some posters. He runs into Punahele Soriano, and is really happy that there’s a fellow Hawaiian on the card. Usman screws up a promo. Volkanovski and Kai Kara France goof around and take a Christmas photo with the team.

Holloway walks away with a gift basket and runs into Mike Perry. Holloway is tripping out about all the food in the basket. Usman meets with a UFC nutrition person who explains some weight cut stuff. Amanda Nune and Nina Ansaroff show up for their Christmas photo shoot.

And that’s it! UFC 245 goes down this Saturday night in the T-Moble Arena.
