UFC 305 ‘Embedded,’ No. 4: Dricus Du Plessis, Eugene Bareman reminisce about old times

The UFC is returning Down Under with UFC 305, and the popular “Embedded” fight week video series is here to document what’s happening behind the scenes.

UFC 305 (pay-per-view/ESPN/ESPN+) takes place Saturday at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia.

In the main event, bitter rivals will finally get their hands on each other as middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis (21-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC) makes his first title defense against former champ Israel Adesanya (24-3 MMA, 13-3 UFC). In the co-main event, former title challengers Steve Erceg (12-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) and Kai Kara-France (24-11 MMA, 7-4 UFC) meet in a critical flyweight bout.

The fourth 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:

Tai Tuivasa and Steve Erceg hang with rugby players; City Kicboxing trains with Australian Footballers; Champ Dricus Du Plessis continues his camp; Jairzinho Rozenstruik goes sightseeing; UFC 305 athletes get into media day and get their fight kits.
