Jake Gyllenhaal made a cameo UFC appearance whilst filming a fight scene for his upcoming Road House film.
Hollywood star Gyllenhaal, who is playing Jay Dalton in the remake of the 1989 film, had a mock fight at UFC 285 in Las Vegas as he faced MMA veteran turned actor Jay Hieron, who is playing Jack Harris. Gyllenhaal walked out to huge cheers from the Las Vegas crowd, who were at the T-Mobile Arena to watch Jon Jones face Ciryl Gane for the vacant UFC heavyweight title.
Both Gyllenhaal and Hieron were given official introductions by Bruce Buffer and they shot an entertaining fight scene in between the actual UFC 285 fights. Gyllenhaal showed off his acting skills by taking some big punches from Hieron with his back against the fence, but returned fire with a huge three-punch combination that sent the MMA veteran stumbling backwards.
