WATCH ‘Craziest crossover’ as Cristiano Ronaldo-Salman Khan get together in Saudi

Salman Khan as ever was by himself and was seated close to Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez

Arguably, the greatest football player to have ever played is Cristiano Ronaldo. In addition to all the accolades he has received over his remarkable career, Ronaldo has a sizable fan base, and people will do anything to catch a glimpse of him. Fans were infuriated when they saw Bollywood actor Salman Khan and Cristiano Ronaldo seated next to each other at Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou boxing match in Riyadh today.

Salman Khan as ever was by himself and was seated close to Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez. On social media, Salman and Ronaldo’s images and videos are going viral. Fans are claiming this as the ‘craziest crossover’ ever.

Cristiano Ronaldo booed?

Prior to Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou’s crossover fight, Cristiano Ronaldo appeared to be subjected to loud jeers from the crowd in Riyadh.

After moving to the Saudi Pro League in December 2022, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner has been a consistent starter and captain for Al-Nassr ever since.

However, as Ronaldo made his way to his seat, it seemed as though many of the spectators might be fans of the other Riyadh teams, such Al-Hilal, where Neymar Jr. plays when healthy.

To the dispersed sound of jeers, Ronaldo had to make his way to his ringside seat with Georgina Rodriguez, his girlfriend.

The forward met his reception with a hard expression, and when the camera panned back to him when he was seated, he did not grin.

But it might have just been a case of mishearing the sounds, since a “boo” could have sounded much like the raucous “siu” celebration that the Portugal international made popular when playing for Los Blancos.

Not only Salman Khan but many other legends from different industries were present in Riyadh for Fury vs Ngannou.

The highly sought-after invitation was sent to football players Aymeric Laporte and Roberto Firmino, as well as by Ronaldo’s former teammate Rio Ferdinand.

Legends in retirement like Luis Figo and Ronaldo Nazario traveled to Saudi Arabia as well.

Amir Khan, Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield, Manny Pacquiao, and other boxing greats from the past and present were among the boxing talent present, while Eminem and Ye (previously Kanye West) represented music.
