Check out the first episode of Embedded for UFC 264.

UFC 264 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 the MMA hotbed of Simpson, South Carolina with Wonderboy. He needs to get a win over Gilbert Burns to get a title shot. He talks about his fight against Vicente Luque, Burns’ best friend, and won. He’s happy to be on the same card as Conor McGregor again.

We head over to Burns’ camp. He’s worked with the same guys for a long time. They do their best to simulate the conditions of an actual fight on the last day of camp. They focused a lot on movement due to Wonderboy’s unique style.

Dustin Poirier arrives in Vegas and signs some autographs. Back to Burns, who is on a family outing. They’re all very bad at golfing. Back to Vegas, where Poirier is playing ping pong with some teammates and coaches. He tells Mike Brown a dad joke. They go for a run in the suburbs.

And that’s it! UFC 264 goes down this Saturday night in Vegas.
