Jose Mourinho was among the celebrities at the UFC London event held at The O2 Arena. The former soccer manager received a warm welcome as he watched the fights from cageside. Mourinho, currently managing Fenerbahce in Turkey, is known for his love of combat sports, having attended boxing matches in the past. Mourinho made a lighthearted remark regarding the main event fight between Leon Edwards and Sean Brady, saying, "I think if I speak, I’m in trouble!" His presence was noted amid a break in the Premier League schedule, allowing stars like Tottenham's Richarlison to enjoy the match. Richarlison did not play in Brazil's recent victory over Colombia. Comedian Shane Gillis was also in attendance, smiling from the crowd. He is currently touring in the UK and has a performance scheduled the day after the UFC fight. Wrestler Drew McIntyre, known for his past rivalry with boxer Tyson Fury, was spotted among other fans. Leon Edwards is returning to the octagon for the first time since losing his UFC welterweight title to Belal Muhammad last July. Edwards was originally set to fight Jack Della Maddalena, but Sean Brady stepped in as a replacement.
