There are times when celebrities from different fields like modeling, movies, and music come to watch the fights of their favourite fighters. From past UFC events, it can be easily understood that a great number of celebrities are huge fight fans. Moreover, their presence always adds to the excitement of fans. The most recent event in the promotion was UFC 288. The main event was between the bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling, and the former UFC two-division champion, Henry Cejudo. The co-main event was between welterweight stars Belal Muhammad and Gilbert Burns.

Apart from them, the fight card of UFC 288 was not filled with big names. However, the factor did not affect the amount of attention the event received from the stars. The audience at the Prudential Center in Newark included celebrities like Sydney Sweeney and Action Bronson. Both stars were highly excited to watch the fights. Sweeney, who grabbed the attention of the crowd mainly through her performance in Euphoria, seemed to be enjoying her time watching the bouts.
