Ronaldo arrives in style

Sporting a stylish green Gucci jacket paired with black attire, the 38-year-old captain of Al-Nassr donned dark brown sunglasses and a white pair of shoes as he made a grand entrance, holding a small black purse.

As he entered the venue, flanked by security and companions, a fan queried if boxing ranked as his second favourite sport.

However, the former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus ace placed the sport described by many as the "Noble Art of Self defence" as his third choice. Obviously, football sits at the top of Ronaldo's picks while, presumably, MMA is his second favourite.

What's next for Ronaldo?
