Cristiano Ronaldo: World’s #1 Athlete…in social media


27-year-old international soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo has to deal with constant debates whether he is the best player in the world or not.  Though there is no question that the 2008 FIFA World Player of the Year is number one when it comes to his social media exposure off the field.  Cristiano has over 42 million “likes” on Facebook.  Which are a whooping 8 million more “likes” than any other athlete worldwide.  By comparison, other massive branded athletes such as Michael Jordan and David Beckham have only 17.3 million “likes” apiece.
