He's retired. No one is more famous than Michael Jordan. He would be number 1 otherwise.
Not really.
Football (the real one where people use their foot to move the ball) is the most popular sport in the world. A football player will be the most popular.
FYI. I dont play football. I believe MJ is the GOAT.

Wonder how much Arum paid them?
:Thinkingo
Ahh here we go, right on the methodology page
Retired athletes are not included. Therefore, popular stars such as Tony Romo (No. 70 in 2016) and Floyd Mayweather (No. 26 in 2016) are absent.

It says how they determined it, I doubt Arum paid them off there are athletes I never even heard of on that list but are famous in their part of the country and other countries
Also it says there that its only for active athletes, Floyd was on the list last year at the 26 spot. I think they go off internet search and social media popularity.
Who are the most famous athletes on the planet? Ben Alamar, ESPN's director of analytics, devised a formula that combines endorsements with social media following and internet search popularity to create the ESPN World Fame 100 rankings. (Note: NA means either an athlete doesn't have an official account for a social media site or an accurate endorsement figure could not be confirmed.)
I guess we know why Pac is the fighter of the decade. Even to this day he is still much loved all over the world while FLoyd needs to wish his cars and blings will give him the respect to get in that lucrative 100 lmao
PAC THE TRUE FACE OF BOXING :boxing:
This list doesn't make sense. How is Anderson Silva so high on the list? Odell Beckham and JJ Watt are two of the biggest stars in the NFL yet they're last out of NFL athletes. Thiago Silva???? Phil Mickelson in the top 10??? I think a couple of dudes sat around and listed a bunch of people they liked.
I hope jeff horn pull the greatest upset in boxing history, and knock him out. You ugly looking midget. I am going to the Phililippines and power bomb you in your parents basement. Get a job instead of trolling in this forum.
Sorry, you aren't 12, just retarded. Put your helmet back on before you hurt yourself.

I live in Australia and we really don't like cheats here, Floyd was refused a visa to come here, he's not well liked
Not to defend Mayweather because list like these mean absolutely NOTHING but Mayweather is considered "Retired" just saying :dunno: I don't see Kobe Bryant on the List Either because he is RETIRED!
