Perthonalities sat alongside international megastars to take part in the buzzing atmosphere at RAC Arena for UFC 284.
Big-name celebrities travelled to Perth from around the world — sending the world’s most isolated city into the spotlight as it hosted one of the most anticipated sporting events in history.
Ahead of the bouts, social media sensation and WWE superstar Logan Paul arrived, with the star sharing a kiss with girlfriend Nina Agdul prior to entering.
Joined by his entourage including podcaster and YouTuber Mike Majlak, Paul made sure to display his Prime drink — a new sponsor of the UFC — while he watched the event.
Sitting alongside rapper, YouTuber and boxer KSI — partial owner and promoter of the Prime drink — Logan Paul sported a pair of rose sunglasses whilst inside the area, topping it off with a backward cap.
Following the cancellation of his Midvale Woolworths Prime drink launch, thousands booed Logan Paul as the camera panned to him.
West Coast Eagles players Nic Naitanui, Liam Ryan, Tim Kelly and Callum Jamieson arrived looking excited for the day as they all dressed in casual attire.
Fremantle Docker Michael Walters — who rocked a chain in a white t-shirt — was also in the crowd, alongside teammate Liam Henry.
The iconic Tony ‘spud king’ Galati — the owner of the supermarket chain Spudshed — even managed to make an appearance.
In his trademark casual look, the spud legend sported a red t-shirt as he made his way into the arena prior to the main event.
Best known for his role in TV series Vikings, Australian actor Travis Fimmel shined for the camera as let down his hair to watch the fights.
Boxer and former rugby union player Sonny Bill Williams also gave a smile to the camera as it panned in his direction.
Joining forces for the ultimate alcohol-fuelled crossover, Jack Steele and Matt Ford of The Inspired Unemployed relished the opportunity to perform a shoey (drinking a beer out of a shoe) in front of millions worldwide alongside UFC heavyweight Tai Tuivasa.
Tuivasa — who is holding a UFC 284 afterparty at The Lookout in Scarborough — appeared multiple times on the camera where he shined a smile in his bucket hat.
Ahead of Sunday night’s concert at RAC Arena, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith was seen wearing a white t-covered in holes as he held a bottle of water in the stands.
Notable UFC athletes Robert Whittaker, Charles Olivera and Kai Kara-France were also in attendance as they watched the spectacle unfold.
Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya was buzzing during Volkanovski’s bout, clearly showing his appreciation for his featherweight pal as he headlined the main event.
Alexander Volkanovski — who lost the main card fight via decision — went the five-round distance against Russian lightweight Islam Makhachev.
Following his decision loss to Makhachev, Volkanovski still made the most of Perth’s crowd, kicking off a final “Aussie-Aussie-Aussie-oi-oi-oi” chant in his closing remarks.
“Maybe we’ll settle pound for pound number one again,” said Volkanovski.
On Friday, WA Police confirmed it will have a significant presence as large crowds spilled into the streets following the event.
“The WA Police Force are aware of this event and will have a significant and highly visible presence in Perth,” a spokesperson said.
“Ultimately, this presence is in place to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the West Australian community.
The police presence will include Perth officers and various specialist divisions.
In addition to the mass crowds dispersing over Perth following the event’s end, large groups of men were seen urinating on a nearby fence to relieve themselves.
The vacant block across the road from RAC Arena turned into a public urinal at UFC 284, as 15,000 fans crammed into the venue.
