I find the list of ESPN's top 32 athletes a bit lame. There's no MMA fighter or a boxer atleast on the list. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=whosnow/070611 , I think ufc's champ and legend Randy Couture should be on the list together with Mayweather from boxing. These guys are great in their fields. They deserve to be on the list too.

They have too many athletes up there for reasons other than what they can do in their sport; (Michelle Wie? Danica Patrick?) or unproven players. (Greg Oden? Kevin Durant? Vince Young? Reggie Bush?)

Other than that it's an okay list...I guess.

Ya but I just hope ESPN should include some top mma fighters like ufc's Randy Couture, GSP, Kos etc. I think MMArtists deserve of such credit too...same with boxing.

Sharapova at #10? what a joke

Roger Federer at #5? he should be at least 2.

and what the hell are race car drivers doing up there?

is that Japanese guy who eats all the hot dogs on the list? If not, he should be. It takes one hell of an athlete to eat 57 hot dogs (with bun) in 2 minutes.
