Drake joined Conor McGregor on stage at UFC 229 weigh-ins
Conor McGregor was joined by music superstar Drake on stage during today’s UFC 229 weigh-ins.
When McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) walked out on-stage for his final staredown with Khabib Nurmagomedov (26-0 MMA, 10-0 UFC) ahead of Saturday’s lightweight title headliner in Las Vegas, and alongside him was one of the most famous celebrities in the world.
Drake is performing tonight and Saturday at MGM Grand Garden Arena, but before he had his own work, he took in the chaotic action on stage between McGregor and Nurmagomedov.
It was a surprise appearance, but Drake’s fandom for McGregor is no secret. He also gave “The Notorious” a major introduction during the Toronto lag of the world tour for Floyd Mayweather vs. McGregor in July 2017.
Afterward, photos of the meeting with Drake and McGregor showed up on social media.
