The UFC 285 was special in a lot of ways. Firstly, it featured one of the most dominant returns from any fighter in the history of the UFC. Also, the event gave the UFC fans two new champions, which is an amazing fact itself. Lastly, it became the first-ever UFC event to host a film shoot. The noted UFC icon Conor McGregor had already publicized the news that he would be appearing in the movie ‘The Road House’ alongside the famed Hollywood star, Jake Gyllenhaal. The T-Mobile Arena hosting the UFC 285 became the location for the shooting of a few scenes of the movie featuring the Irishman.

The preliminary card of the UFC 285 was given about a 30-minute halt to complete the shoot for ‘The Road House’. It also involved Gyllenhaal shooting an entire fight scene right from his walkout to the end of his staged bout. Following the completion of his shoot, the Hollywood star was spotted alongside McGregor enjoying the main card of UFC 285. ‘The Notorious’ also put out one such video in his Instagram posts, which garnered a lot of reactions and comments from the fans.
