‘UFC 241 Embedded,’ No. 4: Daniel Cormier shakes Stipe Miocic’s hand and realizes something

The UFC’s eighth pay-per-view of the year takes place Saturday with UFC 241, and the promotion’s popular “Embedded” series returns to get you ready.

UFC 241 takes place at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.

In the main event, heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier (22-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC) takes on former champ Stipe Miocic (18-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC) in a rematch of their UFC 226 bout. In the co-main event, fan-favorites Nate Diaz (19-11 MMA, 14-9 UFC and Anthony Pettis (22-8 MMA, 9-7 UFC) collide in a welterweight showdown.

The fourth episode of “UFC 241 Embedded” features the two main eventers, Pettis, and Diaz. Here’s the UFC’s description:

On Episode 4 of UFC 241 Embedded, heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier keeps his cool by surrounding himself with his team, even as he shakes the impressively strong hand of his opponent, Stipe Miocic. Former champion Anthony Pettis feels physically primed as he aims to take his emotions out of his upcoming welterweight bout with Nate Diaz. UFC 241 Embedded is an all-access, behind-the-scenes video blog leading up to the heavyweight title rematch taking place Saturday, August 17th on Pay-Per-View.
