UFC 256 ‘Embedded,’ No. 6: ‘Probably the best Tony Ferguson that you’re going to see out there’

The UFC returns Saturday night with its final pay-per-view of the year, UFC 256, which features a quick turnaround flyweight title fight as top billing.

UFC 256 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and streams on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.

In the main event, Deiveson Figueiredo will defend his 125-pound championship against Brandon Moreno just 21 days since both men last fought. And in the co-main event, Tony Ferguson looks to get back to his winning ways when he meets rising contender Charles Oliveira in a pivotal lightweight clash.

The fifth episode of “Embedded” follows some of the big names. Here’s the UFC’s description from YouTube:

Tony Ferguson connects with Forrest Griffin at the UFC PI. Junior Dos Santos sings carols – and hits mitts – by the fire. Brandon Moreno has a relaxed weight cut. All the athletes make weight on Friday morning, then face off in front of Dana White.
