The UFC travels to Florida this week for the promotion’s latest pay-per-view event, which means the “Embedded” fight-week video series is back to document what’s happening behind the scenes.

UFC 273 takes place at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla. The main card streams on ESPN+ pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.

UFC 273 features a pair of championship matchups, including reigning featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski (23-1 MMA, 10-0 UFC) facing perennial contender “The Korean Zombie,” Chan Sung Jung (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC), as well as a heated rematch and title unifier between reigning bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling (20-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC) and interim titleholder Petr Yan (16-2 MMA, 8-1 UFC).

Additionally, the latest episode takes a look at a key welterweight matchup between former title contender Gilbert Burns (20-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) and undefeated superstar in the making Khamzat Chimaev (10-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC).
