    I doubt very seriously he reaches Reggie Miller level of fame...

    Well I like lots of sports and have never heard of Reggie Miller. But people chucking a ball through a hoop just doesn't do it for me so not surprising really, but clearly gets lots of other people going.

    "Lots" of people is an understatement.

    Nearly three BILLION people in China watched last year's NBA playoffs.

    I think the only people not watching are in the UK.

    Basketball is not popular here in UK, but there are many people who follows nba, and when nba teams comes to london it always sells out. Tickets prices are huge and it very very hard to get a ticket

    Lol you are narrow minded brit who lives on a rainy island. Basketball is a worlds second most popular sport , but then again brits don’t play basketball, hockey , wrestling while the rest of the world does.
    But you love watching feminine looking men floping on a soccer field , right?

    yes you're right. every single person in every single country just loves netball (sorry basketball) apart from UK . UK prefers boxing. And believe it or not this is a boxing forum.

    Wow you seem to know alot about me. Probably you're stalking me as you stalk many other men.

    Nope i don't like soccer (or football as the rest of the world knows it), i find it dull. You need to improve your stalking.

    I love boxing and i thought this was a boxing site. Not a netball/basketball appreciation society.

    You're the one who posted this nonsense about doubting anyone would know who Miller was and that myself and others know little of the outside world.

    Yet you seem to have basically little to zero knowledge of one of the most popular sports on the planet or why Tony Johnson getting snubbed by one of the most well-known NBA players ever - when Tony went there SPECIFICALLY to promote himself and boxing to an audience that boxing wants to reach - is such a BURN.

    Clearly, you don't have your finger on the world's pulse like you ASSUME you do.

    Joshua's such the GLOBAL star he turned down $50 million to fight in the U.S. so he could stay home and make less, by his own admission.

    Brilliant.

    That really moves the sport forward. I'm sure the sport of boxing would be the global sport it is today if Ali decided never to leave Kentucky.

    He meant ice hockey. Nobody plays hockey in the world. It's the same thing to be proud that you are good in cricket when only few countries plays it

    This is like debating Donald Trump.

    I said i don't know who Reggie Miller is. I still don't and don't care. You seem to care that i don't know who he is for some reason.
