Major stars set to attend Conor McGregor’s fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov in Las Vegas

The fight has a star-studded VIP guestlist

Major stars are set to attend Conor McGregor’s fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov in Las Vegas this weekend.

On Saturday, the Crumlin native will return to the Octagon for the first time since he beat Eddie Alvarez in 2016.

As expected, there’s an impressive VIP guestlist for UFC 229, including former Tesla CEO Elon Musk, and actors Mel Gibson, Chris Pratt, and Matt Damon.

According to TMZ, golfer Rory McIlroy will also be there to support his fellow Irish man, as well as boxing legend Mike Tyson, Red Hot Chilli Peppers lead singer Anthony Kiedis, actress Megan Fox, and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft.

Elon Musk’s appearance at the fight is bound to raise some eyebrows, as it will mark his first public appearance since he agreed to step down as chairman of Tesla, after reaching a deal with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

Conor and Khabib will finally come face-to-face in UFC 229 on Saturday, October 6th, and the fight is due to kick off at around 4am Irish time.
