Top Five Most Hated Sports Men




1.El Hadj Diouf

The Senegalese midfielder first became famous after outstanding performances for his country at the 2002 soccer World Cup. Then after moving to Liverpool for a fee of 10 million pounds, a year later he was fined 5,000 pounds and given a two match ban for spitting at a Celtic spectator during an eufa cup match. In 2004 in he was fine twice for two separate spitting incidents while playing for Bolton Wanders, in that same year he was given a four match ban by fifa for a verbal tirade with a referee during the African Nations Cup. While some players are followed by controversy Diouf on the other hand brings controversy where ever he goes. Currently a player for the Doncaster Rovers Diouf is booed and jeered at all away games and occasionally at home games as well.

Diouf has a habit for spitting at spectators
2.Tiger Woods

The former world #1 ranked golfer went from hero to zero in the space of months. With 14 major titles to his name Woods is without doubt one of the greatest golfer the world will ever see. However, in November 2009, Tiger bit off more than he could chew when over 15 women accused him of having affairs with all of them. Woods was immediately divorced by his wife Elin Nordegren and just like his wife, his sponsors left in a hurry. Currently ranked at no.18 Woods lost everything in his life that meant anything. While he now looks to be regaining his form, he has lost a majority of his fan base forever.



3.Micheal Vick

No.1 draft pick in 2001 by the Falcon, Vick has been a hated figure throughout his career. This hatred got even worst in 2007 when he pleaded guilty for his involvement in a dog fighting ring. The Quarterback served 21 months in prison and on his release he immediately became a target for animal rights activist and pet owners worldwide. While he has put his past behind him and continued to focus on his career, the anti Vick demonstrations still continues and it seems the animal lovers in America will never forgive him.

4.Kobe Bryant

One of the living legends of basketball Kobe Bryant is also one of the most hated, his teammates hate him for being a ball hog, his wife hates him for cheating on her and Shaquille O'neal hates him for ratting him out to the cop. Spectators hate him because everyone around him does. So while Kobe might be one of the most popular sports man of all time, it doesn’t mean we really like him.


 Kobe has no clue why he is hated!!!

5.Luis Suarez

The Uruguayan rose to stardom after scoring 111 goals in 153 appearances for dutch team Ajax, which was then boosted by his performance at the 2010 world Cup in Africa. This led to a high profile switch to English Premier League outfit Liverpool. While his brilliance in front of goal continued, he was to make the spotlight for something more detrimental, Racism. Suarez was accused of racially abusing Manchester united defender Patrice Evra and was banned on for 8 matches on his first game back the Uruguayan refused to shake the hands of Evra to spark worldwide suspicions. While Suarez is still one of the best forwards in the world, he is quickly becoming one of the most hated.
