Francis Ngannou opens up on his bond with Cristiano Ronaldo

After being appointed ambassador by Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority (GEA), Ronaldo wasted no time promoting the upcoming fight show in Riyadh. Additionally, he went the extra mile and even sent a designer watch from Jacob and Co. worth $117,000 to his friend, Francis Ngannou.

While Ngannou had already expressed his appreciation for Ronaldo’s generous gesture, the heavyweight fighter also reciprocated in kind. In a recent interview, when Ngannou was asked about the soccer veteran, he said, “Yeah, he is my boy.” To top it off, the 37-year-old even showed the watch to the interviewer, which Ronaldo had earlier sent him as a gift.

Indeed, it was quite a heartwarming and sincere take from Ngannou on his new star soccer friend. Likewise, the excitement surrounding ‘The Battle of the Baddest’ continues to captivate fans around the globe. Ngannou will take on Tyson Fury on October 28. Certainly, Ronaldo will be looking to back his buddy to win the fight.

CR7 leading from the front!

Ronaldo continues to impress his ardent fans by giving back-to-back man-of-the-match performances. Just days ago, he ended his free-kick drought against Damac in quite emphatic fashion. Again, yesterday, in the AFC Champions League group stage match against Al Duhail, the skipper again stole the spotlight with a remarkable brace.

After Anderson Talisca’s first-half strike and Sadio Mane’s second in the 50th minute, Ronaldo stepped up to overshadow Al Duhail’s three-goal comeback in the second half. Initially, he netted a breathtaking goal into the top-left corner with his left foot in the 61st minute. Subsequently, in the 81st minute, he once again found the net with a delicate volley from his weaker foot. Undoubtedly, age proves to be merely a number for the veteran. Any thoughts?
