Check out the third episode of Embedded for UFC 247.
UFC 247 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 Houston, and it serves as a brief introduction to the fighters at the top of the card.
We start off at the Texas Gun Club with who else? Valentina ‘Bullet’ Shevchenko. She knows her weapons. The owner gives her and her sister Antonina props on their shooting prowess.
Katlyn Chookagian goes to the beach with her husband and dog. The little doggo is so cute! Down in Houston, Dominick Reyes is feeling “fantastic” on fight week. His coach talks him up. Reyes chirps at Jones to the camera.
Jon Jones says he’s 217 pounds already as he heads to Houston. He believes that the fight will be about speed, endurance, and agility. Not combine numbers. He talks to a fan and takes a pic. He’s at the hotel now with his brother Chandler Jones and a fellow Arizona Cardinal, Budda Baker.
We get our first look at the Black Beast, who is signing posters. He talks to Jeff Novitzky, and says that he doesn’t use any supplements. Lewis’ coach greets Shevchenko in Spanish. Reyes tries on his gloves. He compares himself to Chris Weidman when he took out Anderson Silva. Jones tries on his gloves. He says that despite all his degrees, Reyes doesn’t make much sense and doesn’t sound all that intelligent.
And that’s it! UFC 247 goes down Saturday night in Houston.
