‘UFC 237 Embedded,’ No. 1: Rose Namajunas prepares for hostile territory

The UFC’s fourth pay-per-view of the year takes place this weekend with UFC 237, and the promotion’s popular “Embedded” series returns to get you ready.

UFC 237 takes place Saturday at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and UFC Fight Pass.

In the night’s main event, strawweight champ Rose Namajunas (8-3 MMA, 6-2 UFC) returns from a career-long layoff to face dangerous Brazilian challenger Jessica Andrade (19-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC). The co-headliner featured Jared Cannonier (11-4 MMA, 4-4 UFC) taking on former longtime UFC champ Anderson Silva (34-9 MMA, 17-5 UFC) at middleweight. Also, former UFC featherweight titleholder Jose Aldo (28-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC) goes for his third straight win when he takes on Alex Volkanovski (19-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC), who is unbeaten in the UFC.

The first episode of “UFC 237 Embedded” previews those three contests. Here’s the UFC’s description:

On Episode 1 of UFC 237 Embedded, strawweight champion Rose Namajunas gardens, packs and practices piano at home before a wild week begins. Challenger Jessica Andrade draws strength from nature; elsewhere in Rio, former featherweight champion Jose Aldo shows off a local artistic tribute to him. Middleweight Jared Cannonier stays on track in the gym for his upcoming bout against legend Anderson Silva. UFC 237 Embedded is an all-access, behind-the-scenes video blog leading up to the world strawweight title fight taking place Saturday, May 11th on Pay-Per-View.
