UFC just released the fourth episode of their UFC Embedded: Vlog Series. The UFC fans can get a close-up look at the lives of the fighters as fight night approaches in this series. A customary Australian greeting was offered to Volkanovski, Randy Brown, Tai Tuivasa, Jack Della Maddalena, and Shane Young in the most recent episode. Where the fighters were educated about the Noongar Tribe’s culture which you can see below.
Noongar, one of the main Aboriginal cultural tribes in Australia, is defined as “a person of the southwest of Western Australia” or “the name for the indigenous people of the southwest of Western Australia.” Western Australia’s entire southwestern region is known as Noongar boodja (country).
In the recent episode of the UFC Embedded series the fighters were taught about the language, and the respect they have for the animals as they provide things like food and clothes, and in the end, the fighters performed Noongar traditional dance with the people gathered there.
It would have been wonderful and invigorating for the fighter to become familiar with the nation they are competing in before getting into the battle at the forthcoming UFC event, where we will see a stellar card packed with UFC superstars.
