A hulking Jake Gyllenhaal entered the UFC 285 octagon to shoot a fight scene for his new film.
On Saturday (4 March), those gathered in the Las Vegas arena to see the Jon Jones vs Ciryl Gane became movie extras as the Nightcrawler actor engaged in a “fight” with former UFC fighter Jay Hieron.
The showdown will be shown in the forthcoming Road House remake, which Gyllenhaal is starring in alongside Hieron.
Gyllenhaal won the staged fight. After, he could also be seen pushing away the ref, played by Mma’s Chris Tognoni, to repeatedly hit his opponent as he lay on the floor.
The scene comes a day after Gyllenhaal displayed his bulked-up physique at the weigh-in ahead of the fight. He shouted at the crowd while standing on the scales and got into a fictionalised altercation with Hieron’s character.
