Francis Ngannou received some "huge" words of support from Cristiano Ronaldo during the pair's chance meeting in Saudi Arabia.
Ngannou is considered arguably the most dangerous heavyweight in the world of MMA, and held the UFC title until this month where he has decided to vacate his title and part ways with the promotion. The Cameroon star is now a free agent and is eyeing a stint in the boxing ring which could include a lucrative showdown with Tyson Fury.
Having dominated the heavyweight division in the UFC, Ngannou remains one of the most highly-coveted stars in MMA and is eyeing a continuation of his career with an alternative promotion. During a trip to Saudi Arabia, Ngannou bumped into football legend Ronaldo with the pair posing for some snaps.
