MMA and basketball make strange bedfellows

Episode two of the UFC’s captivating fly on the wall documentary series is out.

There’s no better way to psych yourself up for UFC 180 event than to watch the Embedded series. Today’s episode is unusual in that it features NBA quite heavily. Interim heavyweight title contenders Fabricio Werdum and Mark Hunt paid a visit to some fellow behemoth athletes, some NBA players who were readying for their own showdown in Mexico City.

Mark Hunt was strangely quiet in this episode. We’re hoping the Kiwi knockout artist comes out with more comedic gold in episode three.

UFC 180 goes down this Sunday November 16 from Mexico city with Werdum and Hunt slugging it out for interim heavyweight belt in the main event. The main card kicks off at 3 am Irish time.
