Who is the all time most famous athlete in the world?

[Bert.]

Probably a futbol player

This

It’s insane how many know about soccer yet when you mention a football or nba player they’re absolutely clueless

I would prob agree with CR being all time famous but idk much about soccer outside of him and Messi

Paul Pierce.

I feel like LeBron is more known known and recognizable worldwide than him.

You know soccer is the most popular sport in the world right?

Really not even close, CR7 got 161m followers to lebron's 48.5m

 

[beacon ave south]

MJ.. end of discussion

 

[numbah1grimey]

Messi

I would even say Kobe is more known than Lebron, everyone knows both in America even people who never watched a second of basketball

In China/Asia they used to treat Kobe like a damn god

In history, probably Ali, MJ, or Pelé. Now, it's Ronaldo.

Athlete? I’m gonna go with Forest Whittaker

Mike ain't played in damn near 20 years and is selling more shoes then LeBron.

MIKE >>>>

Lol how American of you.

I’m leaning towards Messi being more famous between he and Ronaldo

But neither is the most famous all time in their sport. It’s Pele no question.

I’m pretty sure that the most famous athlete of all time Is Michael Jordan though.

Ronaldo could have 500M followers on IG and that still wouldn’t mean he’s the most famous...

Thumbnail did it’s job because I watched 2 mins of that due to the girl in the hat

All-time most famous athlete would either have to be a soccer player or Jordan.
