There’s a full slate of pre-fight events this week, and fans are invited to many of the usual activities.

UFC 170 takes place Saturday and airs on pay-per-view, FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass from Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Events Center. The championship main event is between women’s bantamweight titleholder Ronda Rousey (8-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and fellow Olympic medalist Sara McMann (7-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC).
