Over B-lvl athlete Lebron James, Swedish pole vaulter Armand Duplantis, American golfer Dustin Johnson, French footballer Wendie Renard, and Irish boxer Katie Taylor.

Good for Khabib and MMA, but where THE FUCK is Lewandovski ???

GL winning that poll in the land of the free.

Pretty crazy tbh. I wonder if some good old vote spamming occurred.

MMA isn't really mainstream over here, so this is pretty big imo.

He won the world wide award but it's very much a British award, the winner of the main sports personality award has to be British.

No one gives a fuck about the BBC outside of England

I mean kind of? They're just barely in the top 10 at 9 with 144 million. Russia is massive in land mass, but it dosen't exactly have a massive population. It's less than half of the united states.

His price tag just went up and Dana out there somewhere just gulped.

According to wikipedia, BBC " has the largest audience of any channel, with an estimated 121 million viewers weekly in 2016/2017, part of the estimated 372 million weekly audience of the BBC's four main international news services "

I hope fury wins the main one.
Then sells the award and donates the money to the defund the BBC campaign.

144 million people is still a shitload, just because it's one of the bottom 10 doesn't mean it doesn't have a lot of people, just that there are other countries with insane populations as well

Conor McGregor has over 10 million followers more than the most famous Russian because he fights anyone at anytime at anyweight and always shows up.

Good for Khabib and MMA. I don't know if I think one fight stacks up well against a multiple world record season for Duplantis, but still.

Lebrons net worth is larger than Dagestans GDP. That includes Khabib and his entire village, including the sheep.

You are comparing a flashlight to the sun.

Still less than the true A-lvl athlete Kim kardashian

Probably helped that younger people are more likely to vote in this kind of thing and that MMA fans are often not massive fans of sport as a whole.

I like Khabib and believe him to be the GOAT but he fought once this whole year lol

He's not even in the running for MMA fighter of the year, let alone best athlete.
