Nervous new mum Molly-Mae Hague couldn't watch boyfriend Tommy Fury's big bout - but plenty of other big names could.

As the British boxer won his fight against Jake Paul last night, the YouTuber was left seeing stars inside as well as outside the ring.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who now plays in the Middle East for Saudi side Al Nassr, couldn't miss the big moment.

The scoring sensation, who is earning an astonishing £173m-per-year in the country, watched on with his son from a plush private box.

Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson was also there as a guest of the event, as was boxing superstars Derek Chisora and Deontay Wilder.

Kevin Hart, who is in Saudi Arabia for a gig of his own, was also spotted ring-side.

Sporting great Tyson Fury was also there for his younger brother and certainly got into the spirit, backing his man just yards from the ring as Tommy tore into the American fighter.

The former Love Island star won on points against his rival after a two-year long feud between the pair.

Molly-Mae had baby Bambi to tend to back in the UK of course so missed Tommy's big moment.

But his week away was worth it, it's fair to say.

Tommy is said to have bagged around £4million from the fight including Pay Per View fees, which would be his biggest ever earnings in boxing by a long way.

Molly-Mae stayed at home in Manchester with their one-month-old baby girl but that didn't stop her getting involved.

Maura Higgins and Stephanie Lam joined her, but she just couldn't watch.

She screamed and broke down when she heard the result and although her pals came over to watch the fight with her, she nervously stayed upstairs with Bambi.

The star, who Tommy got together with in Love Island 2019, took to Instagram to sing his praises after the bout.

Sharing a snap of Tommy with his winning belt, she said: "Never a doubt in my mind."

And in the next Instagram Story, she shared a snap of her kissing Tommy whilst she was holding their daughter Bambi and wrote: "The pressure that was in this boys shoulders...I will never ever know how he dealt with it. Never been more proud of anyone in my life. GET HOME TO US OUR CHAMP."

And Tommy entered the ring on Sunday night, he wore a black and white robe which had Bambi's name embroidered in gold lettering.

The top also had an adorable blue butterfly next to her name.

Tommy wore matching white shorts with gold tassels and was accompanied by his trainers, brother Tyson and father John Fury, as he headed out to the ring.

Tommy said after: "This is my first main event, I am going to get bigger and better and if he wants a rematch, bring it on.

"For the past two years this is all that has consumed my life.

"Everybody thought I was running scared but tonight I made my own legacy."

Jake said he was unlucky but wasn't bitter following the defeat.

"All respect to Tommy, he won. Don't judge me by my wins, judge me by my losses," he said moments after.

"I don't know if I agree with the judges, it is what it is but that is the boxing world."
