Tyson Fury insists age catches up with everyone, even if you’re Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo's sister says Portugal boss Santos 'humiliated' her benched brotherRice and Grealish 'were never going to play for Ireland' says former coach O'NeillGrealish jokes Bellingham's Birmingham roots is the one flaw he'd like to changeAnd he insists age gets the better of any athlete – including the world’s best – and, despite still looking in prime shape, Ronaldo is no exception.
“In this game it’s not about how much better somebody is than the other person, a lot of it has to do with natural stuff, like age, and at 38-years old you are on the decline, whether you want to admit it or not.“If you look at Cristiano Ronaldo, he’s 37 years old, he’s had the best doctors, the best physiotherapists, he’s lived like an egg in Mr Kipling’s cake.
“But even Ronaldo is on the slide now, so even someone who has looked after himself like that, it catches up to you… so imagine a boxer who has been punched to pieces for the last 20 years.“Whether you’ve never had a drink in your life, if you’ve never run on any hard surfaces, no matter who you are, age will get you eventually.”talkSPORT is bringing you wall-to-wall coverage of the 2022 World Cup.
