Worst/ most hated athletes in history

World Peace suspended for Pistons altercation



The NBA player formerly known as Ron Artest, now going by the ridiculous name of Metta World Peace, has to be one of the absolute dirtiest athletes on the face of the Earth. Back before he changed his name, he was involved in what is probably still the worst brawl involving the crowd in NBA history. The dude waded into the crowd and started punching fans. Then for some f*cking reason, he changes his name. He's constantly getting into trouble... and now punches an opposing player.

Metta World Peace is anything but.
I don't think even anger management can save this idiot.

Gotta be Roberto Clemente

I think A Rod is starting to make a run for this spot. With more steroid b.s coming out some people are going to despise him. Off the top of my head, I always think of Barry Bonds, not only for the steroids but because almost every teammate of his has nothing nice to say about him. I'm sure there are worse but they come to mind first for some reason.

Ty Cobb must have been reviled in his day.

Floyd Mayweather is pretty hated. But I'll lean towards Adolf hitler.

So this NBA guy did a Cantona?

So this NBA guy did a Cantona?

Um... yeah. (Had to read up on that one. But c'mon, the fan ran down 11 rows to confront the guy.)

On the positive side, Cantona did maintain proper football form by assaulting the fan with his feet.

Thinking back to Ron Artest and his ridiculous new moniker.... it does make for some amusing headlines.
The article on the original post could've cut the title short and just left it as:

"World Peace Suspended"

In history? Jack Johnson, Ty Cobb, Alex 'A-Roid' Rodriguez, Lance Armstrong, Kermit Washington, Bill Laimbeer, Pete Rose, Roger Clemens, Jose Canseco, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Bernard Hopkins, Marty McSorley, Todd Bertuzzi, Ulf Sammelson, Tie Domi, and although not in his lifetime Edwin Valero has become pretty hated

Good list.... and from different sports.
You could argue that John McEnroe belongs in there as well.

Nastasi as well more than likely

They hung an effegy of Beckham at a South London Pub after his Red Card at France 98 but after he scored the free Kick against Greece in 2002, that qualified England for the 2002 Japan/S.Korea World Cup, everyone was singing his name again
