The UFC returns to Atlanta this week for UFC 201, and the promotion is rolling out the “Embedded” treatment for a preview of Saturday’s pay-per-view event from Philips Arena. In the third episode, headliner and welterweight champ Robbie Lawler (27-10 MMA, 12-4 UFC) reflects on training camp and aims focus on relaxation in the final days before fight night. Opponent Tyron Woodley (15-3 MMA, 5-2), meanwhile, is still in the gym working through light training sessions. Also, co-headliner Rose Namajunas (5-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) heads to the barber for a trim ahead of her strawweight showdown with Karolina Kowalkiewicz (9-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC), who is already in Atlanta relaxing ahead of Saturday’s fight. Finally, Matt Brown (20-14 MMA, 13-9 UFC), who fights Jake Ellenberger (30-11 MMA, 9-7 UFC), in the featured main card bout, discusses his mentality centering around hard work and improvement after dropping three of his past four fights.
