UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov and football megastar Cristiano Ronaldo partnered up to make the wishes of a specially abled child come true. Both of them took time out during the holiday season to surprise the 12-year old Ali Turganbekov.

The Dagestani born fighter met Turganbekov during a trip to Kazakhastan. Ali was born with no legs but had an innate love for the game of football. His resilient attitude has led to him sharing the football with modern days marvels such as Lionel Messi, Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, and Gerard Pique.

When Khabib got the opportunity to share the stage with his fan, he didn’t disappoint him either. The two had a few kicks around which would have surely brought a smile to Ali’s face. He shared an image of him along with Khabib on Instagram.
