Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo was filmed reacting to Tommy Fury’s victory over Jake Paul on February 26. Ronaldo was in attendance in the Diriyah Arena during the much-anticipated fight between Paul and Fury. However, Ronaldo did not look pleased after the match, as Tommy Fury was declared the winner after split decision. The reaction video of Cristiano Ronaldo recently emerged, which clearly showed his displeased reaction, as he remained seated, crossing his hands and looking unimpressed by Fury’s victory.
British Journalist Piers Morgan previously confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo would be attending the fight earlier last week. The footage initially emerged of Ronaldo along with his son Ronaldo Jr in the stands during the fight. Later on, another video emerged capturing Ronaldo’s instant reaction to the scorecards of the judges being announced, declaring Tommy Fury the winner.
As soon as the winner was announced, celebrations erupted as the majority of the fans cheered on Fury’s victory. However, Cristiano Ronaldo’s lack of response went viral as fans mocked Ronaldo for his attendance in Riyadh. The 38-year-old Al- Nassr star had a slightly happier reaction as he posed for a photo with Boxing legend Mike Tyson.
