UFC on ESPN 1 media day face-offs: All love between Francis Ngannou, Cain Velasquez

PHOENIX – UFC on ESPN 1 media day took place Friday at the Sheraton Grand Phoenix, and MMAjunkie was on the scene for the event that featured face-offs with all 26 fighters on the card.

In the main event, former heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez returns from a two-and-a-half year layoff to meet former title challenger Francis Ngannou. And in the co-main event, lightweights Paul Felder and James Vick look to establish themselves as viable threats in a stacked division.

You can watch all the fighters face off in the video above.

UFC on ESPN 1 takes place Saturday at Talking Stick Resort Arena with a main card that airs on ESPN following prelims on ESPN+.
