In this week's issue of SportsPro Magazine, the London-based sports business outlet names Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt the most marketable athlete in the world.The three-time World and Olympic gold medalist sprinted past LeBron James, who held the spot in 2010 and fell to No. 2 in the magazine's Top 50.
International soccer stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi rank No. 3 and 4 and Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton rounds out the top 5.
The top 10 looks like: Sebastian Vettel (7), the Knicks' Carmelo Anthony (6), Olympic swimming champ Michael Phelps (8), tennis' world No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki (9) and Indian cricket star Mahendra Singh Dhoni (10).
18 sports are represented, including seven NBA players, three MLB players, two NHL stars and four NFL players. Interesting to note that Colts QB Peyton Manning didn't make the list but Jets QB Mark Sanchez, Broncos QB Tim Tebow and Rams QB Sam Bradford joined Patriots QB Tom Brady on the list.
