The Conor McGregor-Donald Cerrone UFC fight Saturday night had a ton of interest in the sports world, including Tom Brady.
Brady was in Vegas for the fight and got a big ovation from the crowd when he was shown on the video board among other sports stars.

January 19, 2020 This stirred up some speculation about Brady's future, as the Raiders, who are moving to Vegas next year, are one of the teams that potentially could be interested in the soon-to-be free agent. It got even more steam when UFC president Dana White said after the fight he believes if Brady does not return to New England, he could be headed to Vegas, adding that story "has legs."
Brady has gone to plenty of boxing and UFC matches in Vegas before, so this wasn't just a one-time thing.
