Conor McGregor’s title fight with Jose Aldo is going to be huge, and boy, do the UFC know it.
If you were a fan of UFC 189 World Tour Embedded, you’re going to enjoy this.
UFC president Dana White revealed a specific detail about the upcoming UFC 189 Embedded series during a Twitter conversation with a fan on Tuesday.
White confirmed that a three-part Primetime series for the main event, such as the one they made for Georges St-Pierre vs Johny Hendricks at UFC 167 is not in the works. However, in lieu of this, he let slip the number of episodes in the Embedded series for the event.
@PBZMusic it won't happen for that fight but there will be 10 EPS of Embedded.

This is perhaps unsurprising considering there were 10 episodes of the World Tour series, but it’s a pretty big deal when you compare it to their promotion of other cards. For example, only three episodes of the fly on the wall documentary series were made for the “cursed” UFC 186 card.
In fact, UFC Embedded is set to have the most episodes of any Embedded series since its inception in 2014. It promises be one of, if not, the most watched Embedded ever.
