Check out the first episode of Embedded for UFC 263.

UFC 263 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 Arizona, and it serves as a brief introduction to the fighters at the top of the card.

We start off at a gym in Phoenix with middleweight champ Israel Adesanya. He’s getting used to the Phoenix air. Brad Riddell is getting ready for Drew Dober. Adesanya fought Marvin Vettori for the first time in the exact same arena that they’ll scrap in this weekend.

Vettori is happy he’s finally getting some recognition, and he’s repping the fighting spirit of Italy. He wants to become the first Italian UFC champion.

Brandon Moreno shows off his extensive lego collection. He says he’ll go back to Tijuana when he’s done his career, but he had to move to the states to benefit from all the facilities.

We move over to Leon Edwards. His coach respects Nate Diaz for taking the fight. Edwards is looking for his ninth win in a row and a title shot.

Back to Adesanya, who takes a pic with a fan and heads to the gym. His coach says Adesanya has a point to prove.

Nate Diaz and his team arrive at their rented house in Paradise Valley. Nate says it’s better this way than staying with everyone else in the fighter hotel. His teammate runs by and cannonballs into the pool.

And that’s it! UFC 263 goes down this weekend in Glendale.
