UFC: Actor Jake Gyllenhaal the big star of UFC 285 with his incredible fictional knockout

Jthe weekend of UFC 285 was marked by two factors: the return of Jon Jones after three years and the subsequent victory over Ciryl Gane become world heavyweight champion, and the constant intervention of acting Jake Gyllenhaal.

With ‘Bones’, the Mexican Alexa Grasso also brought him his share of glory after his surprising victory over Valentin Shevchenko.

From Friday’s weigh-in, it was clear that the various UFC stages were going to turn into a movie set. Gyllenhaal will play the character named Elwood Dalton in Amazon Prime’s version of the 1980s classic “Road House,” a film that will also star Conor McGregor.

To shoot several scenes of the film, the UFC was asked to collaborate. From the start, we saw Gyllenhaal at the weigh-in like he was just another fighter.

Once introduced, the usual liturgy continued and the actor faced his adversary, veteran Jay Hieronwho plays his opponent, Jack Harris, in the movie. In the face-to-face, there was even a slap from the Hollywood star to his opponent.

The best part came during the night, and not because Gyllenhaal was in the front row next to McGregor. The 42-year-old starred in a fictional fight, which had all the makings of a real fight.

There was a stellar entry and presentation from the fighters, with a large audience, and a fight was filmed in which Dalton beats Harris with a well staged knee strike by

Gyllenhaal himself, followed by a series of knockouts, as seen in multiple videos.
