A former UFC fighter has poked fun at Josh Emmett’s physique ahead of this weekend's UFC Vegas 105. The No.8-ranked UFC featherweight Emmett will lock horns with No.10-ranked Lerone Murphy in the event's headliner.
Emmett appears to be in tremendous shape. He turned 40 last month, and in his octagon return after more than a year, he successfully made weight for the bout.
Meanwhile, ex-UFC star Derek Brunson shared a recent picture of 'CC0' ahead of the event. Poking fun at Emmett, 'The One' captioned the post:
"Josh Emmett shaped like a frozen pizza 😂😂😂"

Josh Emmett sends chilling warning to Lerone Murphy
On media day for UFC Vegas 105, Josh Emmett had a chilling message for Lerone Murphy. Emmett, who thinks that his British foe has never faced anyone like him to date, said:
"I know he says he's still learning on the job. There's no learning on the job when you're in there with me. We will see. He is good but he's never fought anybody like me. I know he thinks he fought someone similar to me but no one that he's fought is even close to me. And he's gonna be in for a rude awakening on Saturday night."
'CC0' added:
"At the end of the day I just have to go out there and win. I have never been in a boring fight."
