And I'm guessing winning the World Cup would be the biggest prize in sports today since soccer is the number 1 sport in the world.

And while Ali is definitely very popular worldwide, I'm thinking Pele or Maradona may surpass him since soccer is far more popular, if you're factoring in the Latin American countries and Asian countries.
Well boxing is back upto 2nd in the most watched sports in the world again.

Now I really know nothing about your Football so I don't want you to think I'm being ignorant here, but is the Superbowl that took place in say 2002 better remembered than Lennox Lewis vs Mike Tyson? Like I say I really don't know so i'm not being in any way funny here.
