Ronaldo was one of the famous names to attend the boxing match between Fury and Ngannou. However, CR7 had a not very happy evening.
This morning, a very notable boxing match took place between Tyson Fury and Ngannou. As a result, “Gypsy King” Fury won by points against the former UFC champion. This is a controversial result because for most of the match, Ngannou completely overwhelmed Fury, at one point Fury was even punched to the floor by his opponent in the third round.
The big fight Fury – Ngannou also attracted attention because there were many famous faces not only from the sports world but also many other entertainment industries present. Most significant is the presence of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, who is playing for Al Nassr in the Arab League.
CR7 and his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez went to the gym in Riyadh to watch the fight and cheer for their friend, boxer Ngannou. It was quite sad for Ronaldo when the audience here greeted him with boos and whistles in protest and ridicule. Ronaldo is Al Nassr’s biggest star, while most of the audience present at the stadium in Riyadh are fans of Al Hilal, Al Nassr’s rival and owns another superstar, Neymar.
When being booed, Ronaldo showed an unpleasant attitude and could not smile when the camera panned. Sadly for CR7, the boxer he supported, Ngannou, lost by points at the end of the match.
In addition to Ronaldo, there are a number of other notable football stars also attending, including Aymeric Laporte, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane. Some other soccer legends also present are Rio Ferdinand, “fat” Ronaldo or Luis Figo. In the music field, rappers Eminem and Kanye West attended.
In addition, a few other famous names in boxing such as Amir Khan, Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield, or Manny Pacquiao were all present to cheer for the two boxers. That clearly shows how great the attraction of the big fight between Fury and Ngannou is.
