Jake Gyllenhaal looked absolutely shredded for his upcoming film “Road House”, and he showed off his chiseled body during Friday’s UFC 285 weigh-ins.
In video taken by Mma Junkie, the 42-year-old actor can be seen strutting to the stage before he’s introduced as the UFC middleweight challenger Edward Dalton. After getting to the stage, Gyllenhaal pumps up the crowd before taking off his hoodie to reveal the stunning body transformation.
UFC veteran Jay Hieron then headed to the stage for his weigh-in. Hieron, who is playing the fighter Jack Harris, faced off against Gyllenhaal, who later slaps Hieron. After all hell breaks loose, Gyllenhaal called out his opponent.
