- Ronaldo attends Fury vs Ngannou
- Pretends to punch Fury
- Boxer plays along during photo shoot
WHAT HAPPENED? The Portuguese superstar pretended to punch the boxing legend as they stood together at the Gala in a group photo. The boxer also played along with Ronaldo by pretending to stumble after the punch.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Many things make this Saturday night's "Battle Of The Baddest" in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, special: two distinct venues, a newly designed belt up for grabs, and an impressive guest list that includes some of the greatest names in sports. Given that Fury is the current unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion of the world and Ngannou is a former UFC star making his professional debut, the bout has been mocked by some in the boxing fraternity. However, Ronaldo was keen to show his support for the Briton.
WHAT NEXT? Ronaldo will be in action for Al-Nassr when they take on Al Feiha in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday, October 28.
