Jake Gyllenhaal made his UFC octagon debut! Of course, as a part of a movie scene.
The famous actor previously surprised fans by showing up at the UFC 285 weigh-ins and facing off with the veteran UFC fighter Jay Hieron – slapping him in the process.
It was all a part of a movie scene; for a remake of the Patrick Swayze’s “Roadhouse”, which also features Conor McGregor.
However, the Hollywood actor then surprised the audience yet again, by walking out to the octagon during the UFC 285 broadcast:

And then… Gyllenhaal faced Hieron – landing a flying knee and then battering him with a barrage of punches.
He didn’t even allow the referee to stop the fight!

The details about the “Roadhouse” remake are still scarce, but it’s been confirmed that Gyllenhaal will be the movie’s protagonist – starring as a former UFC fighter who becomes a bouncer in a Florida Keys bar.
McGregor’s role, on the other hand, is still unclear. According to reports, he’ll play an original character.
