#2 Professionalism
It is well known that Cristiano Ronaldo has extremely high performance levels, but what is not so well known is the amount of work and dedication put into reaching such heights.
Not only does he put in a lot of work on the training ground, but also off it, with Rio Ferdinand admitting that Ronaldo was the first player he saw who hired a personal trainer, nutritionist as well as personal chef in a bid to always keep in utmost shape to perform at the highest levels.
He is always the first to arrive at the training ground, as well as the last to leave, while his attention to detail when it comes to maintaining his fitness level is second to none, with reports emanating that his body fat is almost surreal, while he has the body and fitness of a 20-year-old (despite being 14 years older).
Ronaldo not only talks the talk as to being the best player in the world, but he also walks the walk and for this reason, he should be high up there as the greatest athlete in history.
