Most people worldwide just barely know Ali.
If you visit Europe, South America, Africa you’ll see fanatical/tribal football support. There is no sport in the world anywhere near as popular as football. It’s an absolute fact. The team I support in London are shit, not won a trophy for 39 years yet still pull in nearly 60000 fans every weekend. And there are 3 other clubs in London far bigger than us as well
No, just no. There's no comparison at all.
Being italian I know what I'm talking about, you have no idea how ingrained football is in popular and local culture, and that's the same way in many european countries trust me.
great picture in the OP, really pulls the whole thread together and gets you thinking about the questions posed
And Australia and America have historically never cared much for soccer. Boxing was way bigger in both countries than soccer ever dreamed of being.
I don't think a lot of you realise just how popular boxing was. The heavyweight champ has been the most important figure in sports since the 1920's. Also's the golden era of boxing was in the 20's and 30's not the 60's and 70's. Jack Dempsey was the most popular fighter that ever existed.
Never really took of in Australia. It was always viewed is a bit of a pussies sport.Pfft it’s because they’re both fckin shit at it!
