UFC 241 media day faceoffs video: No Nate Diaz, but it’s all good

ANAHEIM, Calif. – UFC 241 media day took place Thursday, and MMA Junkie was on the scene for the festivities, with 25 of 26 fighters (Nate Diaz was a no-show) taking part in faceoffs.

In the main event, heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier will look to defend his title against the man he took the belt from last year when he rematches Stipe Miocic. The co-main event pits former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis against Diaz in a highly anticipated welterweight match. And the featured bout matches middleweight contenders Yoel Romero and Paulo Costa against each other after a previous booking fell through.

You can watch those faceoffs in the video above, but for Pettis vs. Diaz you’ll have to settle for UFC president Dana White subbing in. Sorry.

UFC 241 takes place Saturday at Honda Center and streams on ESPN+ pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.
