Stephen R. Sylvanie-USA TODAY Sports

Check out the fourth episode of Embedded for UFC 241.

UFC 241 is almost here, and as usual, Embedded is here as well. The show that gives you an inside look at the marquee contestants on PPVs has issued the fourth episode for this weekend’s big show in Anaheim, and it serves as a brief introduction to the fighters at the top of the card.

We start off in Anaheim. Daniel Cormier is running on a treadmill in the hotel. His coach talks about the fight a bit and thinks history will repeat itself against Stipe Miocic. DC talks to Leonardo Vieira briefly.

Miocic does some media. He is very confident that he’ll win. Back in DC’s room. He says Miocic shook his hand harder than before. “His hand feels stronger”. Anthony Pettis says that he’s chill and he’s not going to let Nate Diaz get in his head. He’s just trying to control his emotions until the fight.

Cormier goes to his barber shop to get topped up before the fight. He says that he chases safe business decisions, and this is one of them. DC talks about how barber shops have always been the cornerstone of the black community. He plays the UFC video game with a kid.

Miocic is in Cali at the UFC gym in Huntington Beach, getting a workout in. He signs some gloves and poses for pics with kids.

And that’s it! UFC 241 goes down on Saturday in the home of Disneyland.
