UFC 251 ‘Embedded,’ No. 3: Kamaru Usman arrives in Abu Dhabi

The UFC returns after a one-week break on Saturday with UFC 251, and the promotion’s popular “Embedded” series is back to help build the excitement ahead of the action.

UFC 251 takes place in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.

After the late addition of Kamaru Usman (16-1 MMA, 11-0 UFC) vs. Jorge Masvidal (35-13 MMA, 12-6 UFC) for the welterweight on late notice, three title fights are official with Alexander Volkanovski (21-1 MMA, 8-0 UFC) vs. Max Holloway (21-5 MMA, 17-5 UFC) set to rematch for the featherweight belt in the co-main event and Jose Aldo (28-6 MMA, 10-5 UFC) vs. Petr Yan (14-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) for the vacant bantamweight strap on the card, too.

Kamaru Usman shares sleep woes with UFC President Dana White on their flight to Abu Dhabi. Max Holloway unboxes his action figure; Alexander Volkanovski and Petr Yan do interviews. Yan adapts to the climate with an outdoor run before training inside.
