UFC has released its hour-long weblog series for UFC 194, which features Jose Aldo taking on Conor McGregor, and Chris Weidman facing Luke Rockhold.

The “UFC 194 Embedded: Aldo vs McGregor” was on primetime US television on Fox. The Embedded series gives a behind-the-scene videos inside the lives and training camps of UFC 194 main event match between Aldo and McGregor, as well as co-main event fight of Chris Weidman and Luke Rockhold.

Aldo and McGregor has been on war of words ever since their postponed clash in July at UFC 189. The Brazilian fighter, undefeated for ten years, sent a threat to McGregor just days before they meet in the Octagon, saying the Irishman “will go to sleep” come fight night.

"He’s just another one,” Aldo told MMA Fighting. “I’ve fought many top fighters before, and he’s just another opponent I have to go there and run through."

Meanwhile, McGregor took to Twitter to issue Aldo another threat. The Dubliner captioned his tweet with, “In 6 days I take the game to school,” followed by an exciting promo video for the fight. According to sports Psychologist James Barraclough, a lecturer at the Manchester College, said McGregor’s mind games could be the “one percent” difference when he meets Aldo at UFC 194.

“Self-confidence would be massive here. Any insecurity could cause trash talk to be more effective,” Barraclough told MMA Latest News. “This would probably need to be managed effectively by Aldo’s team.”

Aldo withdrew from the match due to a rib-injury suffered in training and was replaced by Chad Mendes. McGregor defeated Mendes via second round stoppage for the interim featherweight title and is now set for a unification title bout against “Scarface.”
