Video: Get a closer look at the man known as 'T-City' with 'UFC Rising Stars: Brian Ortega'

Undefeated featherweight Brian Ortega is the newest face in the UFC’s 145-pound title picture, and the promotion is placing him in the spotlight.

Ortega (13-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) faces former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar (22-5-1 MMA, 16-5-1 UFC) in the co-main event of UFC 222, which takes place March 3 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event’s main card airs live on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.

Ahead of that clash, take a look behind the scenes with “T-City,” in a new edition of “UFC Rising Stars,” featured in the video above.

Here’s the show’s official description, straight from the UFC:

After watching Royce Gracie in the early days of the UFC, a young Brian Ortega tried out jiu-jitsu – and turned out to be a prodigy. Now that he’s added striking to his game, all while cultivating his unteachable resilience, Ortega may be the most exciting prospect in the UFC’s stacked featherweight division. Recount his undefeated rise through the UFC as told by Ortega, his trainers, UFC analysts and his opponents.
