Video: Watch Johny Hendricks UFC 171 'Fight Journal' ahead of Robbie Lawler title bout

Johny Hendricks will face Robbie Lawler for the vacant Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight title later tonight (March 15, 2014) in the main event of UFC 171 in Dallas, Texas.

But, before "Bigg Rigg" and "Ruthless" trade punches in "Big-D," MMA Fighting shows you a behind-the-scenes look at a day in the life of Hendricks in the lead up to their much-anticipated title fight.

In the video embedded above, see Hendricks conduct interview after interview while chowing down on a healthy breakfast courtesy of nutrition guru, Mike Dolce. Also, Team Hendricks shows you how chilling in the hot tub with a few of your closest buddies is a much less excruciating way to cut weight as opposed to working out in a sauna.

UFC 171 goes down this Saturday night from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, and also features a co-headlining fight between Carlos Condit and Tyron Woodley, as well as an intriguing lightweight scrap between Diego Sanchez and Myles Jury.
