The UFC did not disappoint with its first-ever sporting event at The Sphere in Vegas… and Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez was there capturing the entire incredible night.
Many celebrities attended UFC 306, including Chris Brown, Taylor Lewan, Andrew Shulz, Bob Iger and Shannon Sharpe.
Of course, Jeff and Lauren sat next to the cage — the seats were SUPER expensive, but they had saved up a lot of money — while she pulled out her phone and showed off the space with videos for her followers.

It’s an incredible feat to pull off… UFC boss Dana White hatched the plan when he went to the U-2 show for the big opener, but there were huge obstacles… not the least of which was keeping the fighters from getting distracted by all the lights. He explained his plan Friday on “TMZ Live.”
The event — “Noche UFC” — was what Dana called his “love letter to Mexico.” It was supposed to cost the UFC $8 million to produce, but ended up costing $20 million. The typical cost when the event is held at the MGM Grand is just over $2 million.
Big and surprising finish on the main card — Merab Dvalishvili defeated Sean O’Malley by decision on the main card. It was Sean’s first loss.
