Check out the first episode of Embedded for UFC 260.
UFC 260 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 first episode for this weekend’s huge show in Vegas, and it serves as a brief introduction to the fighters at the top of the card.
We start out with heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic at his fire station. He kept the job because it keeps him grounded and he loves the work. He sings while he sweeps. He gives the cameras a tour. His team makes fun of him, as expected.
Over at Xtreme Couture in Vegas, Francis Ngannou is getting in a workout. Dewey Cooper explains the process.
Back to Stipe, who is in the gym now on an exercise machine while his coach encourages him. As usual, Stipe is clowning around while lifting weights, making his team laugh.
We head to Ngannou’s house, where his nutrition consultant talks about his diet and how his body is very different than most heavyweights. He drinks something to help with a cough.
Back to Stipe yet again, who is at home with his family. There are a lot of people there for dinner. He eats the same meal every time before he leaves for a fight. Miocic always goes to the fight city a day earlier than most guys. His wife is pregnant again, just like the last time he fought Ngannou. Crazy. They’re showing them how to download the ESPN+ app and stream it.
And that’s it! UFC 260 goes down this weekend in UFC Apex.
