Fury brands Ronaldo as the GOAT
When the two met in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Fury made it clear to Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo who he believes to be the greatest football player of all time.
Before his clash with Francis Ngannou this weekend, Fury was seen on camera conversing with former Real Madrid and Manchester United captain Cristiano Ronaldo.
)
In the video on social media tape, Fury made it clear what he thought of the long-running controversy surrounding Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
He said, "Cristiano, you're the greatest footballer that's ever lived and I mean that," Fury told Ronaldo as they sat next to each other in Riyadh.
As he leaned in to give the WBC heavyweight champion a pat, Ronaldo said, "Thank you very much,"
"I'm a big fan, I watch all the football," Fury added. "I watched you when you was at United the first time, the second time, all of Real Madrid."
)
Fury kept praising the 38-year-old attacker from Portugal.
Fury is a fan of Manchester United, so it makes logical that the "Gypsy King" would think highly of Ronaldo given all of the success the player enjoyed while he was at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo currently plays for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, with the club's home games being in Riyadh, where Fury's next bout against Francis Ngannou is scheduled to take place.
