Nike Presents The Conversation Feat Cristiano Ronaldo and Rio Ferdinand


Nike recently released the latest CR7 badged Mercurial boot dubbed "Cut to Brilliance." As part of plan around the release, Ronaldo's former Manchester United teammate - Rio Ferdinand - headed to Madrid to sit down with CR7 and chat about a variety of topics. They touched on his arrival in Madrid, his work ethic, and Ronaldo's love of Mercurial boots.

One thing that I really enjoyed about this interview was how open Ronaldo was with Rio. There is a difference in comfort levels for Ronaldo to be interviewed by a former teammate than by a journalist and it showed here. Rio did a good job with this and we see a different Ronaldo here than we normally do in interviews.
