Unlike y'all I wasn't in my mid 20's or a teenager 30 years ago watching the wide world of sports If tyson was more popular in 86 then I stand corrected.He wasn't more popular than prime MJ that's what the t/s asked.I know foreigners who said their parents woke them up at 3-5 am to watch bulls games.nikkas from nigeria and sudan watching the 93 finals.Basketball became global cuz of Jordan

I'm 49 years old and have lived on all 7 continents at various times in my life. I've been to the seven major hotspots of Africa: Angola, Soweto, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique and Botswana. I've traveled from Phucket to Nantucket. No athlete....I repeat.....NO athlete is as popular as Michael Jeffrey Jordan.

I've seen the Jordan logo carved out in the Antarctic snow and will upload the photo upon request.

I've seen parents in Zanzibar demand that their newborn, on his exit from his mother's vagina, be welcomed into this world wrapped in a Jordan jersey in hopes that his greatness rubs off on the newborn.

I've seen a Chilean man, with no money left to bet in a heated game of poker, bet his father's life instead, purely because he read on internet message boards that Jordan pulled a similar stunt.

Jordan's influence and popularity is long, both globally and temporally.

@YoungMoneyCashMoneyBoy great post! Who do you think was more popular between Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson?
