UFC 265 ‘Embedded,’ No. 2: ‘Less Derrick Lewis and more of the Black Beast’

The UFC returns to pay-per-view this Saturday with UFC 265, which means the popular “Embedded” fight week series is back, as well.

UFC 265 takes place at Toyota Center in Houston. The main card streams live on ESPN + pay-per-view, with prelims on ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.

The main event features a bout that will decide a new interim UFC heavyweight champion as Derrick Lewis (25-7 MMA, 16-5 UFC) and Ciryl Gane (9-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) are set to clash to see who will unify with Francis Ngannou.

The UFC 264 co-main event featured a high-stakes bantamweight matchup with former champion Jose Aldo (29-7 MMA, 11-6 UFC) continuing his run in the weight class against the always tough Pedro Munhoz (19-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC).

The first episode of “Embedded” follows the featured competitors during fight week. Here’s the description from YouTube:

Ciryl Gane fights jet lag in the training room. Derrick Lewis game plans to earn respect. Pedro Munhoz prepares for a legendary KO. Michael Chiesa arrives, excited to compete in front of fans again.
