Ngannou talks about his first meeting with Cristiano Ronaldo

Francis Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight champion, spoke about his first meeting with legendary football player Cristiano Ronaldo.

“We met one of his guys called Richie. He said: “Actually, Cristiano is a big fan of Francis.” Then he called Cristiano and called them, they were in the pool. Then we went up there and saw Cristiano, he was actually waiting for us and I was very surprised. “Cristiano, huh?” We shake hands, greet each other, like, “Hi, how are you?” and he was very cool and very friendly. He told me about me and how he and his family watch my fights at 4 in the morning. I was like, “Dude, you don’t know who’s actually watching your matches.” I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't even know me! But he knew me pretty well,” Ngannou said.

Let us remind you that yesterday it became known that Ronaldo gave Ngannou a watch worth 120 thousand euros.
