The unlikely friendship between Khabib and Ronaldo has blossomed over time, with the two sporting icons forging a bond that transcends their respective fields. Despite their vastly different skill sets, the two have found common ground in their mutual admiration for each other’s athletic prowess.

Their friendship has been well-documented on social media, with both sharing snapshots of their time together, much to the delight of their legions of fans. Check out the pictures below.
Whenever Ronaldo finds the back of the net, he punctuates his achievement with a signature celebration, “Suiii”. It’s not just fans around the world who appreciate this gesture; Khabib is also a fervent admirer of Ronaldo’s unique celebration. But Khabib’s admiration for the football superstar goes beyond mere goal-scoring prowess. He’s a true devotee of Ronaldo’s former club team, Real Madrid, and wears his support for the team on his sleeve.
Khabib has been spotted attending Real Madrid matches on several occasions when his schedule allows. His love for the Spanish giants runs so deep that he once refused to take a photo with a fan because he was wearing a Barcelona shirt!
While Khabib’s dominant reign over the UFC lightweight division will define his sporting legacy, his passion for football provides an interesting glimpse into his life outside the cage. His friendship with Cristiano Ronaldo and devoted support of Real Madrid shows that even the most intense of athletes have aspects of their lives that allow them to be fans themselves. For Khabib, that place is on the pitch at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, cheering on his friend Ronaldo and their beloved Los Blancos.
