Jay Hieron stepped in the octagon earlier this month, 10 years after his last fight for the UFC.
Hieron, a former UFC welterweight contender who retired in 2014, got back in action but not in the way most MMA fans were used to seeing him. Hieron played a role in the remake of “Road House,” which was partly filmed live at UFC 285 inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
In the scene, Hieron fought Jake Gyllenhaal, who plays Elwood Dalton, the main character of the film. It was quite the experience for the former UFC fighter.
