Sun: Boxing coach supports Rooney and Ronaldo in a boxing match, and says it will be a global event

September 29th According to the Sun, former coach of the world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder proposed the idea of ​​letting Rooney and Ronaldo compete in the boxing ring, and said that this kind of game will become a "global event."

Scott, 44, said in an interview with CanadaCasino: "Royce's match against Rooney will make more people pay attention to boxing, and I fully support it. As long as boxing can get more attention, that's a good thing. I hope everyone enjoys this grand occasion, not just criticizes it. Enjoy this carnival. It will be a global event because they are top superstars and can attract a huge audience."

Scott is no stranger to the world of football. He married Kate Abdo, a well-known female anchor of CBS Sports in September last year.

Rooney and Ronaldo played side by side with Manchester United, where Ferguson coached, and the two made more than 200 appearances together. The relationship between the two was once thought to have deteriorated because in the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals, Ronaldo protested to the referee and then blinked at the bench, resulting in Rooney being sent off. In that game, Portugal finally eliminated England through a penalty shootout.

Previously, Rooney also made headlines for publicly supporting Messi in the dispute between Messi and Ronaldo.

However, earlier this week, Rooney denied the two of them had a rift on the RioFerdinandPresents podcast.

39-year-old Rooney said: "Many people think I hate Ronaldo, but in fact I love him. I think he is an absolute genius. What he is doing is incredible. I like Ronaldo and I also like to fight side by side with him. I don't think people know how close we are."

Although Rooney and Rooney are unlikely to "cut off their grudges" with boxing, this is not the only boxing opponent Rooney has been named recently. Earlier this week, former Leeds United and Irish international goalkeeper Paddy Kenny also challenged Rooney. Kenny himself will face former Premier League player Curtis Davis in a charity match next month, hoping to continue his new adventure in the ring.
