Of the many celebrities in attendance at the Day of Reckoning boxing event, Conor McGregor and Cristiano Ronaldo gained the most attention.
However, though the two superstar celebrities sat next to each other ringside, many ridiculed the interactions between the athletes. A clearly excited McGregor approached the football star with enthusiasm that was not returned for much of the night.
McGregor would later take part in a conversation with Turki Alalshikh, who was seated on the other side of Ronaldo. Though the conversation appeared to interest the two parties involved, Ronaldo remained seated between the two with an emotionless expression.

Fans did not hold back their reactions on social media, chuckling at the bored response Ronaldo displayed. Many claimed that the Portuguese football player was 'tired' of McGregor and uninterested.
One fan commented that Ronaldo had 'enough' of the Irish martial artist, saying:
"Bro has had enough 😭"
Other fans reacted with similar comments, writing:
"Yeah his face says it all"
"I'll gladly take his seat"
"McGregor yapping like always"
"He was like bro its hella seats in here why did you sit by me"
"Ronaldo prob has no idea what he saying"
Though the 38-year-old footballer was portrayed on X as unenthusiastic for most of the night, the two did share a few happy moments, including comparing watches.
