After his move to Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr club, Ronaldo continued to enhance his sports presence by participating in several combat events organized in Saudi Arabia.
Recently, Ronaldo caught the spotlight by appearing in some of the biggest boxing matches, organized by Turki Al-Sheikh. He was also part of major sports events like the clash between Conor McGregor and Francis Ngannou, as well as the bout between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk. These participations highlight that “CR7” is not just a football legend, but also an influential figure in the combat sports arena.
Moreover, Ronaldo has strengthened his online presence by launching a new video series on YouTube titled “UR.Cristiano,” which garnered millions of views in a short time.
In these videos, Ronaldo discusses various topics, including his preference between mixed martial arts and boxing, clearly showing his inclination towards the UFC.
In one of the videos, Ronaldo states that he prefers the UFC over boxing, which caught the attention of his fans, who are not used to seeing this side of his sports interests. This emphasis on his diverse passion for sports presents Ronaldo as a multifaceted sports personality, not limited to football alone.
Cristiano Ronaldo continues to dominate headlines, not only as a footballer but as a sports figure with broad interests extending into the world of combat, making him a model of a well-rounded athlete in the modern era.
