‘UFC 235 Embedded,’ No. 2: Kamaru Usman gets face time with Khabib Nurmagomedov

The UFC’s return to Las Vegas is set for Saturday with UFC 235, and the promotion’s popular “Embedded” series returns to get you ready.

UFC 235 takes place Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and UFC Fight Pass.

In the main event, light heavyweight champion Jon Jones (23-1 MMA, 17-1 UFC) takes on challenger Anthony Smith (31-13 MMA, 7-3 UFC), who is a massive underdog. The co-main event features welterweight champion Tyron Woodley (19-3-1 MMA, 9-2-1 UFC) with his title on the line against Kamaru Usman (14-1 MMA, 9-0 UFC). In addition, former Bellator and ONE champion Ben Askren (18-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) makes highly anticipated UFC debut against ex-welterweight champ Robbie Lawler (28-12 MMA, 13-6 UFC).

The first episode of “UFC 235 Embedded” previews the two title fights. Here’s the UFC’s description:

On the opposite coast, welterweight champion Tyron Woodley and debuting welterweight Ben Askren talk about their history as teammates and friends.
