Cristiano Ronaldo gets in the ring with Conor McGregor

Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo paid a very special visit to Conor McGregor this weekend.

The Portuguese soccer star is clearly a big fan of the UFC champ and popped into for a quick spot of MMA.

Ronaldo shared a photo of the special meeting on his Instagram account, after turning up at Conor’s gym in Vegas.

“Great to see you bro,” Ronaldo captioned the topless photo to his nearly 70 million followers on Instagram.

Of course Conor wrote his own post, in which he hinted that the race is on for the Forbes richest sports star next year.

 

My brother Ronaldo dropped by the gym today! He is an animal. Thank you @cristiano, much respect! I will see you for that Forbes number 1 spot next year. #ThisIsTheMacLife

Conor’s coach John Kavanagh also got a snap with the sports star, writing: “Nice to have @cristiano drop in to the gym to support us.”

It comes just one day after the football star partied the night away with Jennifer Lopez at her birthday party.

Ronaldo joined the likes of Kim Kardashian and Calvin Harris at the Vegas bash.
