    They can ignore it all they want, but boxing and boxers are powerhouses.

      And by global they obviously mean pacific ocean area. Frankly, here, barely anyone knows who pacman is, and these who do, dont exactly consider him influential.

        we didnt have any boxers on there in 07 and 08 i dont even know about 06 and below.

        and its funny how that filipino writer attached those 3 names like that, hes wording it to sound even more impressive because he knows those 3 names are much bigger. i mean you would never see any other unbiased writer headline on of their articles like this: "woods more influential than kobe, lebron, and pacquiao"

          Stop the nonsense. Both Lebron and Kobe are way bigger names than Pacman around the world and Tiger Woods is on another level. Most people around the world don't even know who Pacman is.

                    These that are based around the west coast, maybe. And even then it does not make in any way more influential(I am still at a loss how a celeb athlete is influential, and specifically projects his power, but that is another topic) then Tige Woods or Kobe. I mean, c'mon.
