Cristiano Ronaldo stole the show as he led a star-studded lineup of VIPs and celebrities on the red carpet before Tyson Fury's highly anticipated crossover fight with Francis Ngannou. The event, held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, drew stars from around the world.

A Night of Glamour

The Gala dinner at the luxurious St Regis Hotel was attended by many of the A-listers, who turned heads with their fashionable attire. Ronaldo, who currently plays for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, opted for a casual look, sporting jeans and a hooded jacket. Former Brazilian international Ronaldo, on the other hand, donned a smart suit with an open-collar white shirt.

Tyson Fury and his wife Paris also made a stunning appearance on the red carpet, with Paris looking gorgeous in a pink dress and Fury rocking a unique suit. The couple posed for photographs, capturing the attention of the paparazzi.

A Surprise Encounter

During the event, Fury had an unexpected meeting with his upcoming opponent, Oleksandr Usyk. Despite their upcoming bout in December, the two fighters shared an embrace, with Usyk lifting Fury off the ground.

Football Stars in Attendance

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand also graced the red carpet, sporting a stylish oversized black shirt. Ferdinand, now retired from football, took the opportunity to speak with members of the press.

A Lavish Affair

The St Regis Hotel, a five-star establishment, offered rooms starting at £670. However, prices skyrocketed for the night of the Gala, with a single night's stay costing a minimum of £2,500.
