On Saturday, Nate Diaz fights in the octagon for potentially the final time in his career when he takes on Khamzat Chimaev in the main event of UFC 279. Diaz is a massive underdog to Chimaev, and so the No Bets Barred boys are back break down his chances, plus the rest of the MMA action this weekend.

In the fourth episode of UFC 279 Embedded, Khamzat Chimaev gets in some work with his buddy Darren Till, Tony Ferguson and his wife tour the UFC PI, Daniel Rodriguez and Kevin Holland fulfill their media duties, and Nate Diaz (and his jacked manager) do some pushups.
