Former footballer Ronaldo and ex-boxer Mike Tyson recently met, showcasing their impressive weight transformations.
Ronaldo, 47, a former Brazilian football star, and Tyson, 57, a former heavyweight champion, crossed paths and displayed their physical changes.
Ronaldo, a two-time Ballon d’Or winner, had gained significant weight after retiring from football in 2011 due to injuries. At one point, he weighed almost 300 pounds but has since lost a considerable amount, appearing in much better shape.

Ronaldo, known for his World Cup wins with Brazil in 1994 and 2002, has likely lost over 70 pounds. The emergence of Cristiano Ronaldo led to the nickname “Fat Ronaldo,” but his recent weight loss may prompt fans to find a new moniker.
Tyson, approaching his 58th birthday this month, also appears to have slimmed down. He was initially set to face YouTuber Jake Paul, 27, in a controversial fight due to their significant age gap. However, Tyson withdrew due to a health scare on a flight, experiencing nausea and dizziness from an ulcer flare-up.

The former heavyweight champion has participated in exhibition matches since retiring, including a bout against fellow legend Roy Jones Jr. in 2020.
