This dedication is part of why he remains active in Saudi Arabia at 40 years old, showing no signs of retiring anytime soon.

However, Scott—who married the well-known CBS Sports presenter last September—believes he could offer valuable insights if he were part of Ronaldo’s circle.

The 44-year-old enjoyed a successful boxing career and later coached a former heavyweight champion after retiring from the sport.

He shared with Canada Casino : “I would relish the opportunity to sit down with Cristiano Ronaldo and discuss competition, contributing to his mental attributes.

“It could simply involve talking about our shared experiences in competition.

“These athletes understand what it feels like to compete in front of thousands of spectators. They know the pressure that accompanies that experience.

“I’m someone who recognizes that regardless of their poker face or how composed they appear, we could delve into the challenges they face.”

Scott was also asked which football pundit might hold their own in a boxing ring.

He expressed admiration for one of his wife Kate’s CBS Sports colleagues—Micah Richards—during a training session.

He stated: “Micah Richards certainly has potential for something like the Misfits. The main question is who his opponent would be.

“Micah is strong and has effective punching mechanics. When I had him on the pads, it felt like I was coaching someone very coordinated.

“He understands what it takes to compete because he has performed at the highest level in his sport.

“Boxing is fundamentally about maintaining composure under the pressure of someone trying to knock you out. If you can achieve that, you've conquered more than half the battle, and I believe he could do it.”
