UFC 285 weigh-ins: Jake Gyllenhall’s jacked physique for Road House has MMA Twitter scream ‘steroids’

MMA fans at UFC 285's ceremonial weigh-ins were handed a treat this weekend as Conor McGregor arrived on stage to close out the show. The Irishman revealed that he and the team behind the Road House remake would be filming a scene featuring Jake Gyllenhall.

The Hollywood star arrived on stage to a screaming crowd before removing his shirt and stepping onto the scales. The 42-year-old was sporting a seriously impressive physique for his role in the movie, which has left some fans questioning whether or not he's achieved his look naturally.

MMA journalist Chamatkar Sandhu shared a photo of Gyllenhaal from the weigh-ins and compared his physique to another one of his roles. The image on the right is from the 2015 movie Southpaw, which saw Jake Gyllenhaal take on the role of a boxer with an equally impressive frame.

MMA fans have been reacting to images of Gyllenhaal from the weigh-ins, with one fan questioning whether or not the 42-year-old has been using Paulo Costa's infamous 'secret juice':

"Jakes on Paulo Cosra's "Secret Juice"

Another fan believes the Hollywood star has used testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which UFC fighters are only able to use with a medical exemption.

"Jake's on super trt"

Twitter user @Allenownz joked that Gyllenhaal's figure was so impressive that he should have taken up Performance Enhancing Drugs (PED) years ago.

"Jake should've gotten on the sauce long ago dude looks amazing"

UFC star Jon Jones names Brock Lesnar as his dream opponent in MMA

Jon Jones is set to end his three-year hiatus this weekend as he steps into the octagon to face Ciryl Gane at UFC 285. The bout will 'Bones' debut at heavyweight and will also see him competing for the vacant 265lb strap.

Whilst Gane has been seriously impressive since making his MMA debut just five years ago, his relatively short career so far has meant that Jones doesn't see their fight as the biggest of his career.

In an interview with Karissa Maxwell for The Sporting News, the 35-year-old was asked about his dream MMA match-up. According to Jones, he is still holding out hope for a potential super fight with Brock Lesnar:

"I think fighting Brock Lesnar would have been really cool. Brock isn't the most technical guy but he has a massive fanbase. He's a lot bigger than me and it would have been one of those really cool David vs. Goliath situations... I think we both would have done great things for our family and for our team financially that would have been massive... Never say never. Brock, if you're out there."
