The UFC is back in “Sin City” with UFC 306, and the popular “Embedded” fight week video series is here to document what’s happening behind the scenes.

UFC 306 (pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+), also known as Noche UFC in celebration of Mexican Independence Day, takes place Saturday at Sphere in Las Vegas.

In the main event, bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley (18-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) goes for his second title defense against No. 1 contender Merab Dvalishvili (17-4 MMA, 10-2 UFC). The co-headliner will see a trilogy bout between women’s flyweight champion Alexa Grasso (16-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) and Valentina Shevchenko (23-4-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC), who fought to a majority draw in their rematch one year ago. Also on the card is a key featherweight bout between Brian Ortega (16-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) and Diego Lopes (25-6 MMA, 4-1 UFC).

The first episode of “Embedded” follows the featured fighters while they get ready for fight week. Here is the UFC’s description of the episode from YouTube:

Champ Sean O’Malley gives a peek into his life as a girl dad, while Daniel Zellhuber embraces his Mexican heritage in the boxing gym, and Merab Dvalishvili has a late outdoor workout. Check-in day then begins with Raul Rosas, Jr. declaring, “Chiwiwi” and Brian Ortega and Ode Osborne making their rounds, before Valentina fits in a training session ahead of her Flyweight title fight.
