UFC Fight Night 208 media day faceoffs: Blaydes-Aspinall, Hermansson-Curtis, Pimblett-Leavitt

LONDON – UFC Fight Night 208 fight week is officially underway, with media day and a handful of faceoffs going down Wednesday.

After notable athletes from the card spoke with reporters, the top three matchups for Saturday’s event, which streams on ESPN+ at The O2, locked eyes for the first time in front of cameras.

Everyone stayed professional, from heavyweight headliners Curtis Blaydes (16-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) and Tom Aspinall (12-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC), to middleweight co-headliners Jack Hermansson (22-7 MMA, 9-5 UFC) and Chris Curtis (29-8 MMA, 3-0 UFC), and finally the lightweight featured bout between Paddy Pimblett (18-3 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and Jordan Leavitt (10-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC).

Check out the video above to see the faceoffs from all three bouts at UFC Fight Night 208 media day.
