‘UFC 228 Embedded,’ No. 4: ‘It’s all about making weight; I like watching Food Network’

The UFC is on back in Texas this week for a pay-per-view featuring two title fights. Once again, the promotion has rolled out its “Embedded” treatment to preview UFC 228.

The event takes place Saturday at American Airlines Arena in Dallas and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and UFC Fight Pass.

In the main event, welterweight champion Tyron Woodley (18-3-1 MMA, 8-2-1 UFC) looks for his fourth title defense against Darren Till (17-0-1 MMA, 5-0-1 UFC). And in the co-main event, women’s flyweight champion Nicco Montano (4-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) returns for her first title defense against Valentina Shevchenko (15-3 MMA, 4-2 UFC).

Here’s the UFC’s description of the fourth “Embedded” episode:

On Episode 4 of UFC 228 Embedded, welterweight champion Tyron Woodley embraces a fight with another feared striker – this time, undefeated Darren Till. Featherweight Brandon Davis zones out with video games, while former strawweight champion Carla Esparza unplugs for fight week. Strawweight Karolina Kowalkiewicz shows off her dogs’ new Halloween costumes and plans to show off her ground game on Saturday against Jessica Andrade. Flyweight champion Nicco Montano and challenger Valentina Shevchenko join Woodley and Till at open workouts. And strawweight Tatiana Suarez pushes through her last tough training session before fight night. UFC 228 Embedded is an all-access, behind-the-scenes video blog leading up to the two world title bouts taking place Saturday, September 8th on Pay-Per-View.
