[Full List] Lionel Messi Drops Out Of Forbes Top 10 Most Valuable Athletes List, No.1 Will Shock You

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi is no longer among the top 10 most valuable athletes in the world, according to American finance publication Forbes. Messi previously occupied ninth position in 2014 with an estimated worth of $12 million – a drop of one million from the previous year – but does not feature at all in the athletes’ top 10 for 2015. Rory McIlroy and Floyd Mayweather Jr instead enter the top 10 with the undefeated boxing champion having signed several lucrative endorsements before his July fight with Manny Pacquiao. Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo, who was seventh a year ago, has also suffered a drop in the rankings and has now moved down to eighth despite releasing a new clothing range. Forbes’ Top 10 Most Valuable Athletes: 1. Tiger Woods – Worth $30m 2. Phil Mickelson – $28m 3. LeBron James – $27m 4. Roger Federer – $27m 5. MS Dhoni – $21m 6. Usain Bolt – $18m 7. Kevin Durant – $18m 8. Cristiano Ronaldo – $16m 9. Rory McIlroy – $12m 10. Floyd Mayweather Jr – $11.5m

OLAMIDE Vs DON JAZZY Feud: My View   The battle line between two record label bosses was drawn at the last HEADIES award in Lagos. Ironically the organizers tagged it Flip The Script and indeed the whole script was flipped because for the 1st time there was so much tension in the atmosphere especially around the NEXT Rated category which had Lil Kesh of “YBNL”, Kiss Daniel of “G Worldwide”, Reekado Banks and Korede Bello of “Mavins Record”.  This was undauntedly the most keenly contested Next Rated category  since its introduction. The car price attached to it has over the years made the category for promising talents in the industry. I read an article by a DJ saying Next Rated is a non-voting category. I guess he missed it.
