Russian featherweight Movsar Evloev told how amused he was by the footballer’s photos together Cristiano Ronaldo and former UFC fighter Conor McGregor .
Earlier, Evloev commented on a photo of McGregor and Ronaldo taken on December 23 during a boxing evening in Saudi Arabia, where the British Anthony Joshua and the Swede Otto Wallin met.
— Somewhere on social media, you left a comment on a photo of Conor McGregor and Cristiano Ronaldo, writing “more like harassment.” What made you laugh in this photo?
— There were several photos there, and I saw that some people made them demotivators, they signed something funny, in general, it all came down to the fact that Ronaldo is trying to enjoy the tournament, and Conor is distracting him all the time, apparently, it is swollen, as usual, it was no longer interesting to watch the tournament. And I decided to joke too. I didn’t mean to offend anyone.
—Did it make you laugh at Conor’s behavior when he saw Ronaldo?
“Yes, it seemed funny,” Evloev told .
Evloev competes in the UFC and is undefeated in 17 fights during his professional career. On January 20, the 29-year-old Russian will face Englishman Arnold Allen at the UFC 297 tournament in Toronto. In the main fight, American Sean Strickland will meet South African Dricus Du Plessis.
