The friendship between the two GOAT (Greatest of All-time) athletes is no secret as the sports superstars are always in awe of each other and are often seen commenting on social media posts.
The UFC superstar was at Old Trafford for the Red Devils’ 1-1 draw with Everton on Saturday, before making another short trip the next day to watch Manchester City’s highly entertaining 2-2 draw with title rivals Liverpool at Anfield. For. However, Nurmagomedov got a chance to meet his good friend Ronaldo and Manchester United stars such as Paul Pogba, Rio Ferdinand. During that meeting, the two sporting icons also participated in a hilarious ‘face-off’ and the video soon went viral.
The Russian fighter shared some pictures and a video on Instagram, in which he is engaged in a friendly fight with the Portuguese star footballer. “He’s the best ever, keep up your work champion, you inspire millions around the world,” Nurmagomedov captioned his post.
In a video that has rocked the internet, the two goats can be seen face to face in MMA style. The two tried to show a serious face but failed to hide the smile on each other and the footage is just spectacular.
