Amir Khan Says He Would Pay to Watch Messi and Ronaldo Fight
Former boxing world champion Amir Khan has weighed in on the idea of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo stepping into the boxing ring.
Khan admitted he would gladly pay to watch the two football icons square off, even though he doubts the fight would ever actually happen. Messi and Ronaldo have ruled the football world for almost 20 years, racking up 13 Ballon d’Or awards between them.
Speaking with Instant Casino, Khan shared his excitement over the fantasy matchup, saying through GOAL, “That would be a great fight. I’d buy a ticket for that. We still don’t know who the true number one is. I like them both – Ronaldo is a great ambassador, and so is Messi. But with the kind of money they’re making, I don’t think either of them would ever risk it. They don’t need to.”
When asked what advice he would give Messi about handling pitch invaders in the MLS, Khan said, “Honestly, just run. He has too much at stake. It’s not worth fighting back. Fans just want to touch him or hug him – they’re not trying to hurt him. They love him. I understand why his bodyguard was moved away, but fans mean no harm.”
Since leaving Europe, the two football greats have gone their separate ways. Ronaldo now plays for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, while Messi is lighting up the MLS with Inter Miami.
Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on his son’s future and football career after watching his training sessions.
He spoke about his 16-year-old son “He’s a good kid. Honest, a good kid. The others are tougher. The ones I have at home, the younger ones. This one is no problem. The others…”
“When I was his age, he was a bit bigger and stronger. I was smaller. I believe he will be bigger than me in size. The hunger is the most challenging aspect.”
Footballers João Pedro and Moisés Caicedo have shared their thoughts on the recent transfer of former Brighton player Danny Welbeck.
It can be noted that Welbeck recently completed a move to Stamford Bridge. Pedro shared “This will mark the third occasion we have played together, and I believe, just as he did for me previously, he will extend his support to everyone in the squad. Danny embodies that spirit; he is incredibly helpful and genuinely wishes the best for everyone around him and for the team.
“It is well-known that he is an exceptional player. I am eager to play alongside him once more, and I believe he will be a tremendous asset to our group.”
Real Madrid player Vinícius Júnior has spoken about his contract and how things have been since discussions began.
He said “It’s gone very well, meeting the new coach and the new players and training very hard. Mourinho wants me to be as I’ve always been: happy, cheerful, and that I play my football.”
“We have to prepare physically so that during the season we have fewer injuries and we can count on everybody. Monday was a double session, Tuesday is one session. So let’s go. Today we did a bit of work in the gym and a short session to load our legs some more.”
