From Eminem to Mike Tyson, fans loved spotting numerous celebrities in the crowd throughout the build up to the fight.
But one of the best interactions of the night had to be the one between UFC icon McGregor, Cristiano Ronaldo and his partner, Georgina Rodriguez.
Former Manchester United and England defender Rio Ferdinand vlogged the occasion on his YouTube channel FIVE.
After documenting his interaction with heavyweight star Oleksandr Usyk, Ferdinand’s video then cut to him capturing McGregor linking up with Ronaldo and Rodriguez.
McGregor is seen laughing and joking with the former Man United star, hugging him. He then grabs Ronaldo’s hand and shakes it.
But whatever was said, the couple thought he was hilarious.
After posing for a photo with Ronaldo and Ferdinand, the camera cuts to a clip of the Al Nassr captain and the Irishman pretending to square up to each other.
Ronaldo starts laughing at first, but then composes himself well, giving the UFC star a steely look.

The pair then burst out laughing and grin and each other before embracing again.
Before his bout with Ngannou, Fury sat down for a conversation with Ronaldo, giving him his take on the Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi debate.
Fury’s fight against boxing novice Ngannou didn’t go as planned, with the Gypsy King being challenged for 10 rounds and was even dropped in round three.
Fury won a controversial split decision, but whilst he remains unbeaten, his reputation ahead of his bout with Usyk has certainly been shaken.
