Soccer star Sergio Ramos appearing at a recent UFC event made quite a few headlines. The ex-Real Madrid star showed up at UFC Jacksonville to support fellow Spaniard Ilia Topuria. Ramos took the time to meet Topuria after the event and posed for pictures with him.

Hence, those UFC fans who knew Ramos took the time to explain the magnitude of his visit.
