I just wonder how famous pbf is considering hes going on a 2 bit show. If david Beckham went on would he or pbf be the biggest name.
Worldwide theres no contest, theres only Tiger Woods whos as famous as Beckham
He is the most famous man alive today. By a long way. That's a very sad reflection on society when a just above average footballer is held in higher esteem than a nobel peace prize winner or the inventor of the internet etc
thats all part of the superfiacial world we live in. sad, i agree. its only getting worse, thats the scarier part.
Depends on who you talk to. When that world cup thing/team trade thing happen the media made a big deal about it. However, before this, very few people knew what a David beckham was. I couldn't pick out David Beckham in a line up if my life depended on it. The majority of people I associate with Mayweather>>>>Beckham.
I think this thread is turning into another World vs US conversation but I’ll try to answer the question. I don’t think anyone can honestly answer the question because beckham has not been here that long and it depends on what region of the country you’re from. Where I’m from its Floyd by far.
90 million watched the superbowl. 1 billion watched the world cup finals...
american football as a number 1 sport in how many countries?
football (soccer) is played but so many countries as the national sport.
we dont give a fuk about 100 ad breaks. we dont give a fuk about armour in a sport. being an athelete is about the body and if you need armour and helmet to protect yourself then its not about the body anymore. they are on steroids and can only run fast and are storng but need to be protected lol.
heard of rugby? try that and do it for 40 mins 10 min break and then 40 mins rather than all this bullshit swap team shit.
as for baseball world series? fuk that no one cares about it across the world apart form japan, and thats why its called the world series cuz theres like one legue in the world lol.
superbowl = super advert breaks
Latin America doesn't exist? I'm not really even a fan of Baseball, but its not just the US and Japan.
And if you really watched and gave American football a chance then you would know that the protection gives just as many injuries as it prevents. Helmets allow you to play with reckless abandon. That means run into your opponent with full speed and lay your head into him. That helmet turns into a weapon, so the protection excuse is really overblown.
The Super Bowl has turned into a bit of a joke. Every true football fan knows the best games of the season are usually the championship games before the Super Bowl. The Patriots/Colts game last year was a classic, and the Super Bowl was a dud.
All fair play; I don't know why my compatriots want to have their own sports, I guess it's easier to be world champ that way.
But basketball has caught on and is huge all over the world. We haven't even won a competition in seven years.
American football is a beautiful game, but too local and too complicated for foreigners to catch onto. I don't understand this "the best athletes are in the NFL" horseshit. It's guys doing very specialized tasks. The best athletes in the world are footballers, they're playing the sport that every race and nation in the world play, if you make it to the top of that you've done something.
i agree that basketball is a top sport. many countries play it across the world from rich to poor. you have to be very fit to play it because i have. although in the uk we dont fully understand the change over of players. well me anyway so im playing as long as the game is for and its very tough. i play football for 3 hours solid and its kept me very fit ^^ we dont have half tiems etc like professionals lol we just love the sport.

our version of american football. btw erm these guys range form 5 foot 10 to 6 foot 8 ish. all about 13 stones to 20 stones. range in wait due to some for speed and some for power and some to tackle. oh and they play for 40 mins and then 15 min break and then 40 mins. a player rarely gets substituted at all unless injured. tough fukers
the guys tackling are about 20 stones. 12 stones is about 168 pounds so erm work it out lol

Obviously worldwide Beckham is more famous, and he is probably more recognizable with all of the tabloid coverage he has gotten recently in America.
Soccer is still a joke in America. I have still never met a person who will openly admit to watching soccer.
Soccer is a kids sport in America. You stop playing when you are about 12.
US Football and Rounders is a complete joke all around the world.
The football world cup is truly global, yet your world series is not realy anythin to do with world
well each person would know one of the other more its 50 50..
but me personally had no fuckin idea who david beckham was until a few days ago,.., and still could care less for him
pretty boy by TKO
Beckham is a lot more popular especially with everything going on, but a lot of it is just celebrity bullshit, not really because he is an athlete. I wonder if it will all blow over soon...or maybe he will really help US soccer.
This Beckham character must only be popular in the white community because I've never heard of him. Then again, that's what counts so I guess he is more famous than Floyd.
Most popular British boxer pre-Hatton: Frank Bruno. Most popular English footballer pre-Beckham? Good question, Ian Wright has a good shout though.
If you're going to be my baby it don't matter if your black or white...
