Mourinho is a huge fight fan and has been ringside for Anthony Joshua's boxing matches before.

He is currently in charge of Fenerbahce in Turkey but is believed to still own a house in London.

And Mourinho made a famous reference of his when asked for a prediction on Leon Edwards' main-event fight against Sean Brady.

He said: “I think if I speak, I’m in trouble!”;

Also in attendance at the UFC was Tottenham forward Richarlison.

There is a rare week off from Premier League football amid the international break.

And Richarlison was not in Brazil's side that beat Colombia 2-1 in a 2026 World Cup qualifier.

Elsewhere, comedian Shane Gillis was all smiles from the crowd.

The performer has been touring in the UK and has a gig booked for the O2 Indigo one day after the UFC card.

WWE star Drew McIntyre – who once rivalled ex-boxing champion Tyson Fury – was also spotted in the crowd.

Edwards, 33, returns for the first time since losing his UFC welterweight title to Belal Muhammad, 36, last July.

He was due to fight Jack Della Maddalena, 28, but Brady, 32, replaced him.
