I put him in my top 10 most popular but my top 3? Hell no. Somebody in another thread was 100% sure Jordan is the most popular athlete :mjlol:. Knock it off, nikkas outside the u.s.a don't care about cheese eyes /basketball ike that.

My nikka Mike Tyson more popular worldwide then him too :smugdraper:

He is definitely more popular than Ali.

The Jumpman logo is internationally recognized. Kids in China and Japan camp out overnight to cop his shoes.

Outside of America, who cares about Ali like that?

People who don't even watch basketball overseas know what the Jumpman/23/Bulls are. And it's strictly because of MJ. NBA is as big and global as it is because of MJ.

Boxing is still boxing without Ali.

And Sugar Ray Robinson >>>

Ali was so famous, brehs. :wow:

I'm not old enough to live it, but a good story that made me realize his fame and impact all over was when I met this young Muslim girl from some arab country. It was her first time traveling to USA and she said she couldn't wait to go to Kentucky.

I was like Kentucky:usure:

Don't you wanna see NEW YORK or CALIFORNIA :manny:

She was like, "not really" :whoa: THEN she asks me to guess why she wanted to go to Kentucky cause there's someone famous from there.

I was like:patrice:

JOHN WALL :manny:



She looked at me like :beli: and asked why don't I know my own people.

then said she wanted to visit the ALI Center in Louisville and that he was her hero.:mindblown:


That's when I realized Ali was/is the most famous athlete in the world:banderas:


She should've said Louisville from the beginning though :umad:
