[ASFN Admin]

The UFC is back in the desert for UFC 329, its sixth numbered event of the calendar year, and the biggest draw in the promotion's history finally is back.

The popular "Embedded" fight week video series is here to document what's happening behind the scenes. UFC 329 (Paramount+) takes place Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

In the main event, former two-division champion Conor McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) returns after a five-year layoff to take on former featherweight and BMF titleholder Max Holloway (27-9 MMA, 23-9 UFC). In the co-feature, Paddy Pimblett (23-4 MMA, 7-1 UFC) meets Benoit Saint Denis (17-3 MMA, 9-3 UFC) in a crucial fight for the lightweight title picture.

The third episode of "Embedded" follows the featured fighters while they get ready for fight week. Here is the UFC's description of the episode from YouTube:

Max Holloway goes to the P.I. for hot and cold baths; King Green goes to the jewelry store; Terrance McKinney gets some training in; Cody Garbrandt celebrates his birthday week training at the P.I.; Zachary Reese is happy to have his dad with him as he gets his training session done; Paddy Pimblett feels good as he trains at the P.I.; Conor McGregor makes his check-in round at T-Mobile.
