UFC 304 ‘Embedded,’ No. 4: Paddy Pimblett peels back curtain on fatherhood
The UFC is across the pond for UFC 304, and the popular âEmbeddedâ fight week video series is here to document whatâs happening behind the scenes.
UFC 304Â (pay-per-view/ESPN/ESPN+) takes place Saturday at Co-op Live in Manchester, England.
In the main event, welterweight champion Leon Edwards (22-3 MMA, 14-2 UFC) puts his belt on the line in a rematch with Belal Muhammad (23-3 MMA, 14-3 UFC) three years after their first encounter ended in a no contest. And in the co-headliner, Tom Aspinall (14-3 MMA, 7-1 UFC) defends the interim heavyweight championship in a rematch with Curtis Blaydes (18-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) two years after a freak knee injury to Aspinall ended their first fight.
The fourth episode of âEmbeddedâ follows the featured fighters while they get ready for fight week. Here is the UFCâs description of the episode from YouTube:
Athlete check-ins wrap up for UFC 304; Champ Leon Edwards gets in a late night striking session; King Green goes for a swim; Belal Muhammad trains in the early morning; Curtis Blaydes hits pads in an alley; Media Day kicks off.
