We're that much closer to UFC 190, which takes place this Saturday night (Aug. 1, 2015) inside HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
That means the stars of the pay-per-view (PPV) show are starting to trickle into town and the "Embedded" camera crew was on the scene to give fight fans a glimpse into their fight week preparations.
Light Heavyweight legends Mauricio Rua and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira did some promotional work ahead of their co-main event match, as well as top-ranked Strawweight standouts Claudia Gadelha and Jessica Aguilar, who will kick-off the main card action.
Stefan Struve was also looking to settle in, but "Skyscraper" wanted to first hunt down some comfort food to feed his 7,' 271-pound Dutch frame ahead of his Heavyweight showdown against Antonio Rodrigo Noguiera.
It's not that simple.
Check out the full description for Episode 3 of "Embedded:"
On Episode 3 of UFC 190 Embedded, American-based fighters find home comforts abroad, as heavyweight Stefan Struve seeks familiar foods and women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey relaxes with a soothing scent. Northerner Bethe Correia arrives in Rio for her title shot and Los Angeles transplant Shogun Rua returns to his home country for a light heavyweight rematch. The locals then descend on the host hotel: legendary twins Minotauro Nogueira and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, as well as strawweight Claudia Gadelha.
With UFC 190's open workouts already in the rear-view mirror, it leaves the final pre-fight press conference tomorrow (Thursday) and the official weigh-in event on Friday as the last of the formalities before showtime.
Tick-tock!
