(Daily Point) — Cristiano Ronaldo and Conor McGregor were seen side by side at the Joshua vs Wallin boxing match on the night of December 23. However, fans noted that the football legend seemed less than thrilled about their seating arrangement.
Ronaldo, facing away from the UFC fighter, did not engage when McGregor enthusiastically tried to discuss the match in Riyadh.
Despite this initial impression, the 38-year-old later shared a photo on Instagram featuring both of them laughing together, challenging followers to come up with the “best caption.”
As two of the most globally recognized athletes, Ronaldo and McGregor are often considered the “faces” of their respective sports due to their remarkable success.
Known for his close connections with athletes across various sports, the former Real Madrid footballer has previously met with notable figures such as Michael Jordan, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and UFC’s Khabib Nurmagomedov.
