The action will unfold in less than 24 hours as UFC 251 goes down tomorrow night (Sat., July 11, 2020) live on ESPN+ PPV from Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. It will mark the official launch of UFC’s “Fight Island,” which has been thrust into existence to combat ongoing COVID-19 travel/event restrictions.
In advance to one of the biggest cards of the year, which will be headlined by three title fights, the promotion has released the latest and greatest episode of UFC 251 “Embedded,” which can be seen in the above player. This time around the behind-the-scenes action features UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski racing some pretty sweet cars, Jorge Masvidal playing spikeball, and Paige VanZant rolling with UFC bantamweight Ricky Simon to prepare for her main card bout.
From the official YouTube description:
Champ Alex Volkanovski tests his speed and his nerves at Yas Marina Circuit. As weigh-ins near, Jose Aldo watches sports; Paige Vanzant jumps rope; Rose Namajunas gets her pec adjusted; and Jorge Masvidal plays spikeball.
