Paul was joined by his brother, Logan, and his mother, Pam Stepnick, on their way to the ceremony.
The trio shared a snap with Jake’s 4.7 million followers on X – and fans were amazed to see McGregor sitting behind the brothers with Pam.
“The opening is going great,” Jake captioned the photo.
“I can’t believe what I’m seeing,” one fan gasped in response.
Another said: “Never thought I’d ever see a photo like this, with all the beef over the years.”
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul McGregor and MMA star Paul McGregor have exchanged barbs online on a regular basis over the past few years.
Reports emerged last month that The Notorious had agreed to fight Paul after he started a bout with Logan, 29.
But Jake called The Notorious out last month for trying to back out of the confrontation, branding McGregor a “washed-up”.

The battle between the pair has been brewing for the better part of four years.
Jake began his quest for what could be a huge payday with the former UFC champion in late 2020.
He mocked McGregor in a series of online videos, which included a sick jibe at the Irishman’s fiancée Dee Devlin.
The pair have exchanged several other blows over the years, with McGregor criticizing Jake’s messy bout with boxing legend Mike Tyson last year.
MacGregor attended Donald Trump’s victory rally on Sunday and met UK reform leader Nigel Farage.
“Honored to be in Washington, D.C. to support @realDonaldTrump the newly elected leader of the free world, and to stand with the 13 families who lost loved ones at Abbey Gate,” the UFC star wrote on social media.
Inside McGregor’s infamous lifestyle
With more sides to his character than the octagon, Conor McGregor’s rise was an enthralling watch.
McGregor’s trip to the US comes after he lost a civil court case over the claims He assaulted a woman in a hotel room in Dublin.
Irish mixed martial arts fighter Nikita Hand has been accused of “raping and brutally beating” her after Christmas Eve in December 2018.
McGregor claims he had consensual sex with Hand.
A jury in the civil case ordered McGregor to pay her nearly £207,000 in November.

After the decision, The Notorious wrote on X: “I will appeal today’s decision.
“The judge’s instructions and the modest sentence that was imposed were due to assault, not due to serious or exemplary damages.
“I am disappointed that the jury did not hear all the evidence reviewed by the Director of Public Prosecutions.
“I am now with my family and focused on my future. Thank you for all your support around the world.”
