UFC 333 Embedded, Episode 1: 'I just take their zeros'

The UFC’s early-morning previews for *UFC 333* have spotlighted the two marquee title clashes set for Abu Dhabi, with the featherweight and bantamweight divisions taking center stage. Reigning featherweight champion **Alexander Volkanovski** enters his title defense against **Movsar Evloev**, a fighter known for his relentless takedown-heavy approach and a UFC record of 10 wins—all by decision.

Volkanovski, meanwhile, has signaled confidence in a decisive finish, framing Evloev’s lack of explosive offense as a key advantage. The event also features a third chapter in the bantamweight trilogy between **Petr Yan** and **Merab Dvalishvili**, adding another high-stakes bout to the card.

*UFC 333* kicks off on Saturday, October 24, with the main card beginning at 2 p.m. ET on Paramount+, offering fans a packed lineup of championship action from the Etihad Arena on Fight Island.
