A final fan joked: "Opening ceremony is going to end up being about 10 times longer than the fight."
The ceremony finished with the ring rising up from the ground. The undercard at the event took place in a different room in the venue.
The list of stars who were in attendance for the tear-up was nothing short of stacked, with the likes of Conor McGregor, Cristiano Ronaldo, Eminem, Kanye West, Rio Ferdinand, Aymeric Laporte, Chuck Liddell, Allan Saint-Maximin and Oleksandr Usyk all turning out.
