Conor McGregor made a surprise appearance at the UFC 285 weigh-ins as he greeted Jon Jones before his heavyweight title fight.
Jones, 35, faces Ciryl Gane in the main event of UFC 285 in Las Vegas on Saturday night after spending three years away from the octagon. The consensus greatest MMA fighter of all-time has been preparing for his heavyweight debut since making the last defence of his light-heavyweight title against Dominick Reyes in February 2020, a controversial fight that many fans felt Jones lost.
After facing off against Gane for the final time, Jones greeted McGregor onstage as the Irishman unexpectedly came out following the weigh-ins. The pair shared a brief exchange as McGregor said to the heavyweight title challenger "Go on the boy" with Jones replying: "What's up Conor? Good to see you baby."
