Conor McGregor bets millions on Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in Euro 2024 and Copa America 2024.
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight and Lightweight champion Conor McGregor has once again made headlines, this time not with his fists but with his wallet.
Known for his boldness both inside and outside the ring, McGregor has placed substantial bets on two of football's biggest stars and their respective tournaments.
It all started with Euro 2024, where McGregor placed a hefty 9.8m bet on Cristiano Ronaldo to clinch the Golden Boot.
Ronaldo, known for his prolific goal-scoring abilities, was a natural choice for McGregor, who clearly saw potential in the Portuguese forward's ability to dominate the goal-scoring charts once again.
