Superstar football player, Cristiano Ronaldo, will be present next Saturday for the second event of the UFC in Saudi Arabia.
Last June the UFC finally landed in the Kingdom of Saudi Aarabia for his inaugural event when Robert Whittaker scored a huge victory over Ikram Aliskerov.
After he brought excitement back into boxing, Turki Alshikh decided to baptize his toes in the MMA waters and worked with the UFC to bring a number of exciting events to the kingdom.
He also worked with the promotion to set up their blockbuster UFC 306 event from the atmosphere in Las Vegas.
The next Saturday the promotion in the ANB-Arena lands while Israel Adesanya takes on Nassourdine Imavov in the main event and Shara 'Bullet' Magomedov at Michael Page takes in a huge Co-Main event.

Cristiano Ronaldo supports Shara Magomedov to become UFC Middleweight Champion
The undefeated Russian competition has only been able to fight in the middle since he signed at the UFC due to the fact that he has only one eye.
In anticipation of his enormous middleweight collision against the 'Venom' page, Shara 'Bullet' has already decided what he will spend on his fighting breasts, while looking forward to claiming his fourth execution bonus.
With the fight that takes place in Saudi Aarabia, there will probably be several present celebrity figures, because there are usually for the boxing events.
One of them will be a superstar football player, Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Saudi -Arabian football club, already Nassr. In anticipation of Shara's fight on Saturday, he and 'CR7' met and talked about the opportunities of Magomedov to become UFC Middle Weight Champion.
“I met the whole team, but specifically with Ronaldo I spoke to him for about half an hour. He knows a whole group about the UFC, he is a big fan, he said he will be at the fight and he said I have potential to become the champion, “Magomedov told Michael Bisping during an interview.
Ronaldo has previously spoken about the UFC and interviewed the UFC -Fedweight champion Ilia Topuria's Championship references prior to his title defense against Max Holloway.
Does Shara Magomedov have the chance to become a middleweight champion?
Shara 'Bullet' is currently only arranged number 14 in the 185LB division and hopes to crack the top 10 in the not so distant future.
Nevertheless, Page goes up of good weight for this fight and so a victory for the Russian will probably not move that far to the ranking.
Given his 15-0 record, with a victory on Saturday evening, he is probably offered a fight in the top 10 of the division and will bring himself closer to the title conflict.
Middleweight King, Dricus du Plessis will defend his title in a rematch against Sean Strickland on UFC 312 and the next competition that follows that fight, will be Khamzat Chimaev.
Because there is a lack of new contenders at the top of the division, Shara 'Bullet' was able to find himself in the title entry after a few more victories.
