Ahead of his boxing brawl with Tyson Fury, Francis Ngannou has received a gorgeous gift from Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo loves combat sports and has also been captured with Conor McGregor.

Ngannou recently looked back upon his journey throughout the years, and indeed, getting an expensive gift from someone like Cristiano Ronaldo is something everyone could only dream of. The watch costs around $250k, a hefty amount to express a gesture.

The watch is from JacobandCO, and Ngannou took to Instagram to thank Ronaldo for his kindness and brotherly love. The Cameroonion-French descent UFC fighter is set to fight Tyson Fury in one of the biggest boxing matches of his career.

A gift from Ronaldo certainly showcases his support for the fighter, who will be motivated to win over the undefeated Fury. Ronaldo had earlier said on DAZN that UFC or Boxing are amongst his favorite sports to watch, apart from football. This justifies his gesture for Francis, further motivating him to give his best shot for the fight on October 28.
