Watch Jake Gyllenhaal score a vicious knockout filming ‘Road House’ fight scene at UFC 285
LAS VEGAS – Fourteen fights were scheduled for the UFC 285 bill, but fans in attendance were treated to a bonus Saturday when actor Jake Gyllenhaal entered the cage to film a scene for the upcoming film “Road House.”
Gyllenhaal, who showed off a ripped physique as he also filmed a scene at Friday’s UFC 285 ceremonial weigh-ins, won the faux fight with a flying knee. His opponent was former UFC fighter Jay Hieron. The scene also featured UFC cage announcer Bruce Buffer and MMA referee Chris Tognoni.
“Road House” is a remake of the 1989 action film that starred Patrick Swayze. UFC star Conor McGregor, who will make his acting debut, also is featured. The film does not have an official release date.
Although the scene was not shown on the broadcast, check out MMA Junkie’s video from inside T-Mobile Arena above.
