WATCH: Cristiano Ronaldo shadow box with Cristiano Jr at Jake Paul vs. Fury

When Tommy Fury and Jake Paul faced off in the ring, Cristiano Ronaldo was undoubtedly motivated by the action. The Portuguese star was also shadowboxing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.

On Sunday in Saudi Arabia, YouTube star Paul squared off against the brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. The event was attended by a number of famous people. Although he now plays club football for Al-Nassr in the Middle East, five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo was among those present.

The 38-year-old aimed to demonstrate to his son that he is knowledgeable about jabbing and hooking.

Jake Paul, a popular YouTuber, suffered his first loss in professional boxing on Sunday night when he was defeated by Tommy Fury by a split decision.

The younger half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury was knocked out by Paul (6-1) early in the final round of their cruiserweight fight, but he dominated for large portions of the eight-round contest at Diriyah Arena. Fury (9-0, 4 KOs) won the fight with a score of 76-73 from two judges, while Paul had a 75-74 advantage.

Jake Paul promises to make IShowSpeed meet Cristiano Ronaldo

One of the cameramen questioned the Problem Child about his response to having the legendary Portuguese footballer there for his match versus Tommy Fury during the pre-match press conferences.

The younger Paul brother was really happy to see the football player and even said IShowSpeed. Before declaring that he will speak with Ronaldo about a future meeting, he poked fun at him in a pleasant manner.

"That's nuts. That's crazy bruh, Speed is punching the air right now. Speed wishes he was me. Nah, that's... I'm sorry Speed. I'm gonna tell, for the internet, I'm gonna tell Cristiano to meet Speed and see what happens,” Paul noted h/t Sportskeeda.
