Highest-Paid Actresses 2011

With the 52nd fight of his career coming up (against Shane Mosley), Pacquiao has chiseled his name alongside all-time pound-for-pound greats like Willie Pep, Henry Armstrong and Sugar Ray Robinson. There are have been many moments that have defined the career of arguably the world's current best pound-for-pound fighter.

Let’s take a look at his 10 best moments in the ring.

10 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Joshua Clottey
The fight turned out to be quite a letdown, but one of the highlights of the night was Manny’s "Pompyang" punch. The Pompyang move is a double open-palm strike to the ears, resembling the clapping of cymbals. It's a trademark move popularized by the late Filipino actor, Fernando Poe, Jr., who used it in most of his action-movie fight scenes.

This illegal move may make Pacquiao seem arrogant by not taking his opponent seriously, but it demonstrates how easily the Filipino fighter can dominate in the ring.

Manny Pacquiao (145¾ lbs) beat Joshua Clottey (147 lbs) by unanimous decision in round 12 of 12.

9 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Lehlohonolo Ledwaba
Pacquiao arrived in America in 2001 at 21 years old, weighing 112 pounds. On the second of three stops, he entered the gym of the trainer Freddie Roach. There, he formed an odd-yet-formidable combination with Roach, and one month later, Pacquiao entered the ring and defeated Lehlohonolo Ledwaba of South Africa.

The fight arguably put him on the radar, and from that moment, he went on to defend the title four times. He’s lost only one match since his American debut.

Manny Pacquiao (121 lbs) beat Lehlohonolo Ledwaba (122 lbs) by TKO at 0:59 in round 6 of 12.

8 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Antonio Margarito
His recent destruction of Margarito, a fighter 17 pounds heavier than him, was extraordinary in many ways. Anyone who needs convincing now that Pacquiao has solidified his place among boxing's all-time elite (including Floyd Mayweather Jr.) is as blind as Margarito was on the night he was destroyed by the Filipino fighter.

Not since Erik Morales beat the Filipino superstar in 2005 has a Mexican boxer solved the Pac-Man riddle. But is Pacquiao’s nickname as the "Mexican Killer" justified? The answer seems to be a resounding yes.

Manny Pacquiao (144½ lbs) beat Antonio Margarito (150 lbs) by unanimous decision in round 12 of 12.

7 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Erik Morales (3rd Meeting)
With the series split 1-1, Pacquiao and Morales locked fists for the third and last time.

It was this fight that marked a change in Pacquiao’s fighting style. As if he wasn’t already dangerous enough, Pacquiao began to use his right hand as a key element of his arsenal. Manny now applied tremendous power in both hands, helping to amplify an already stellar swarming style.

Manny Pacquiao (129 lbs) beat Erik Morales (129 lbs) by KO at 2:57 in round 3 of 12.

6 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Marco Antonio Barrera (1st Meeting)
It was the first time Pacquiao went up to the Featherweight division. With this win, Pacquiao began to establish his legacy as the newest boxing superstar and the new "King of the Featherweight" division.

For Pacquiao to defeat Barrera was an achievement, but to demolish him in such conclusive fashion showed that he was to be taken seriously by his peers. As for Barrera, he managed to secure a rematch with Pacquiao (which he duly lost).

Manny Pacquiao (125 lbs) beat Marco Antonio Barrera (126 lbs) by TKO at 2:56 in round 11 of 12.

5 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Erik Morales (2nd Meeting)
Pacquiao put his WBC International Super Featherweight title on the line in the rematch against Morales. Pacquiao had lost the first encounter with a 12th-round majority decision.

Morales escaped being knocked down twice early in the fight, once by holding on to the ropes and once by falling on the referee's body. But his resilience wasn't to last. It was the first time in his hall-of-fame career that Morales was knocked out.

Manny Pacquiao (128½ lbs) beat Erik Morales (130 lbs) by TKO at 2:33 in round 10 of 12.

4 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Oscar De La Hoya
Can you imagine beating someone so conclusively that you actually cause them to retire? Well, that's exactly what Pacquiao did to Oscar de la Hoya. Pacquiao pummeled De la Hoya for eight rounds straight, and the fight had to be stopped because the Golden Boy was taking such a hard beating.

No title was exchanged when Pacquiao defeated de la Hoya via an 8th round technical knockout. But there was plenty of symbolism. Though very much in the twilight of his career, the much-decorated De La Hoya retired after the match and completed the passing of the torch to Pacquiao.

Manny Pacquiao (142 lbs) beat Oscar De La Hoya (145 lbs) by RTD at 3:00 in round 8 of 12.

3 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Juan Manuel Marquez (2nd Meeting)
Four years in the making, this fight was dubbed "Unfinished Business" because of the controversial draw that ended their first encounter in 2004. This time, however, Pacquiao managed to edge out Marquez, but the result was not without controversy.

Their match was devastatingly hard-fought on both sides. Pacquiao escaped with a narrow split decision.

Manny Pacquiao (129 lbs) beat Juan Manuel Marquez (130 lbs) by split decision in round 12 of 12.

2 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Ricky Hatton
The fighter from England went down to the canvas twice in the first round before he was knocked out for good in the second round. In the spirit of Muhammad Ali, Pacquiao looked like he was just biding his time. He then unleashed a left hook that sent Ricky Hatton to the canvas with less than 10 seconds left in the round.

I feel for Hatton, who will have to see this knockout time and again as it gets replayed on KO reels. It was one of those moments that takes your breath away.

Manny Pacquiao (138 lbs) beat Ricky Hatton (140 lbs) by KO at 2:59 in round 2 of 12.

1 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. Miguel Cotto
The most impressive Paquiao moment ever inside the ring has to be the night when he faced off against the lion-hearted Miguel Cotto.

In a legacy-cementing win, Pacquiao defeated Cotto to capture the WBO Welterweight title and WBC Diamond Belt. The win made him the first boxer ever to win seven different titles in seven different weight classes. His performance that night fixed the Filipino's reputation as one of the finest boxers of this -- and possibly other -- generations.

Pacquiao simply destroyed Cotto. Viewers could catch glimpses of Cotto’s wife wincing has he took shot after destructive shot.

Manny Pacquiao (144 lbs) beat Miguel Angel Cotto (145 lbs) by TKO at 0:55 in round 12 of 12.

Humor me? LOL!

Will Mayweather Ever Fight Pacquiao? Probably not after reading this list. To be fair, though, it's possible neither of them could compete with these Top 10: Pound-For-Pound Fighters in their prime.

The 2010 Winter Olympics, officially the XXI Olympic Winter Games or the 21st Winter Olympics, were a major international multi-sport event held from February 12–28, 2010 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with some events held in the suburbs of Richmond, West Vancouver and the University Endowment Lands, and in the resort town of Whistler. Approximately 2,600 athletes from 82 nations participated in 86 events in fifteen disciplines. Both the Olympic and Paralympic Games were being organized by the Vancouver Organizing Committee (VANOC). The 2010 Winter Olympics were the third Olympics hosted by Canada and the first by the province of British Columbia. Previously, Canada hosted the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, Quebec and the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta.
Following Olympic tradition, then-Vancouver mayor Sam Sullivan received the Olympic flag during the closing ceremony of the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy. The flag was raised on February 28, 2006 in a special ceremony and was on display at Vancouver City Hall until the Olympic opening ceremony. The event was officially opened by Governor General Michaëlle Jean.
For the first time, Canada won gold in an "official" sport at an Olympic Games hosted at home, having failed to do so at both the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal and the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary (although Canada won a gold medal in the "demonstration-sport" of curling in Calgary).
Canada clinched first overall in gold medal wins on the second to last day of competition and became the first host nation since Norway in 1952 to lead the gold medal count. With 14, Canada broke the record for the most gold medals won at a single Winter Olympics, which was 13, set by the former Soviet Union in 1976 and Norway in 2002. The United States won the most medals in total, their second time doing so at the Winter Olympics, and broke the record for the most medals won at a single Winter Olympics, with 37, which was previously held by Germany in 2002 at 36 medals. Athletes from Slovakia and Belarus won the first Winter Olympic gold medals for their nations.

Which players have been the best buys and top movers?

Each European transfer window, Goal.com International decides on the best acquisitions, in order from 1 to 10, and we encourage you to let us know your thoughts.

We judge based on:

* The player's overall ability (this being the most important factor)
* How the player will fit into his new line-up
* How the player will adapt to his new surroundings, and vice-versa
* The transfer fee payable, if any, and any other financial details known. (Transfer fees unconfirmed by either club or otherwise unknown are given as approximations and are marked in italics.)

For the reason that players arriving on permanent deals tend to be more adaptable and often more important, there is preference given to full transfers over loans. That is not to say that loans, co-ownerships etc. cannot be included, but players must be extra special to justify a space on such a move.

With all of that explained, it's time to see the list! This was last updated at 02:50 CET on Tuesday January 11th.

1 Last week: 2	Antonio CASSANO	AC Milan - Sampdoria - Undisc. Antonio Cassano is an enigma to say the least, but there is no doubt at his best he can give a massive push to Milan's Scudetto bid. Capable of creating goals and scoring them in abundance, his talent alongside the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic will have attacking football enthusiasts' mouths watering. His superb start so far moves him to the top.
2 New entry	Edin DZEKO	Manchester City - Wolfsburg - €32m Dzeko's mammoth transfer fee is right now the only thing separating him from top spot. If he can hit the ground running, though, he could turn out to be one of the best success stories in Premier League transfer history. City are in the running for the league title, remember, and a(nother) top-class name up front is hardly going to hurt.
3 Last week: 1	Ibrahim AFELLAY	Barcelona - PSV - €3m The versatile Afellay will provide Barcelona's squad depth with a huge boost. He has plenty of experience despite his young age, and he should fit in easily into Barca's football philosophy. For a reported €3m fee, he comes very cheap, but how much he will play in the first team at the start remains to be seen. When he does, expect fireworks.
4 Last week: 3	LUIZ GUSTAVO	Bayern Munich - Hoffenheim - €15m Luiz Gustavo arrived in Germany from Brazil in 2007 and quickly established himself as a success wherever he went. As a left-back in the 2. Bundesliga, he was great. As a centre-back and defensive midfielder in the top flight, he was even better. He's just 23 and is set to shine for Bayern for years.
5 Last week: 4	SIMAO Sabrosa	Besiktas - Atletico Madrid - €900k The ambitious Turkish side will glady welcome an experienced, flamboyant winger who will give the team more attacking width and dimension. Eventhough he's already 31, the Portuguese still has great pace and dribbling skills and his set-piece deliveries are as sharp and potent as ever.
6 Last week: 5	JULIO BAPTISTA	Malaga - Roma - €2m Over 4,000 Malaga fans descended to welcome Brazilian attacker Julio Baptista back to La Liga. Here, in the Spanish league, Julio is a proven success: his final days at Real Madrid were actually quite good. The Andalucian side can call on his big-game experience when it counts.
7 Last week: 6	Federico MACHEDA	Sampdoria - Manchester United - Free (loan) We saw what 'Kiko' could do in his Manchester United debut. Now it's time to see what he's capable of in Serie A. Antonio Cassano is a tough act to follow but the 19-year-old seems to have everything it takes to succeed.
8 Last week: 7	ELIAS	Atletico Madrid - Corinthians - €7m A left-sided central midfielder with true attacking flair, Elias cost Atleti big bucks from Corinthians. The 25-year-old has been on the Brazilian circuit for years and counts national team coach Mano Menezes as his biggest fan. Voted best player in his position in Brazil in 2010 - a class act well worth following.
9 Last week: 8	Andrea RANOCCHIA	Inter - Genoa - €12.5m Something of a gamble for Inter, Ranocchia's signing could go either way. The Italian international will solidify what has been a weak position for the Nerazzurri over the last two years, provided that he adapts quickly. If he does he will be a very useful starter.
10Last week: 9	Raffaelle PALLADINO	Parma - Genoa - Undisc. (co-ownership) A very talented winger who is at his best playing on the right or left of a 4-3-3, on his day Palladino can be truly sublime but he is very inconsistent and can sometime disappear during matches. But his ability and potential is without question and he could shine at Parma.

Snow Boarding

Source: nationalgeographic.com | As March Madness kicks off this week, talk around ye old office water-cooler will likely revolve around NCAA basketball. But that doesn’t mean college hoops fans should have all the fun. So we decided to give you ADVENTURE crowd your own bracket-like list to debate: a run-down of the best modern rivalries in outdoor sports. And when we say rivalries, we don’t mean to imply that these athletes snipe and bicker like Rock of Love contestants. We mean, simply, that they’re vying for their sport’s top spot—and pushing each to be better in the process.
Here, then, are our picks for today's Top 10 Outdoor-Sports Rivalries in climbing, cycling, ski racing, and more:

10. Sailing

Any rivalry pitting the French against the English is sure to be a good one. And the competition between sailing’s Francis Joyon and Ellen MacArthur doesn’t disappoint. Last year, after the Frenchman annihilated the English MacArthur’s around-the-world solo record by a full two weeks, he told her: “I had a hard time beating your record. I hope that you won't be in a hurry to beat mine.” Sorry, buddy. We’d bet she’s already working on it. Here’s a blow-by-blow of Joyon’s arrival last January—and oui, it’s in français, but it’s easy to follow the action:

9. High-Altitude Parachute Jumping

Speaking of French versus English rivalries… Ever heard of Michael Fournier and Steve Truglia? If you haven’t yet, you’re likely to soon. Over the past few years, the two high-altitude parachute jumpers have been neck-and-neck in a heated race to make a world-record busting jump from 120,000 feet (more than 23 miles) up—literally from the edge of space. Just to give you an idea of how crazy that is: A typical skydive lasts about one minute before the canopy is deployed; jumping from 120,000 feet up means Fournier and Truglia would freefall for more than seven minutes. From that high, the sky will be pitch black, and they’ll easily be able to make out the curvature of the Earth. Englishman Truglia’s “Space Jump” program is said to be on track for a jump any day now, while Fournier’s French team is aiming for a May ’09 jump. Stay tuned.

8. Skateboarding

So who’s primed to take the reigns from Tony Hawk as the country’s next top skateboarder? Well, after the Battle at the Berrics competition last week, we’d say it might be a toss-up between Mike Mo Capaldi and Benny Fairfax. The two went head-to-head in the final round of the battle—a trick-for-trick tournament of skating that plays out something like a game of HORSE in basketball.

7. Sport Climbing

Quick: Who’s the best sport climber in the world? Well, duh—Chris Sharma, right? For well over a decade, the 27-year-old Sharma has been the sport’s main man. But now a young upstart has some saying his reign could be nearing an end. So who’s scrambling for the title as the world’s best? Chris Sharma and Adam Ondra, who at only 16-years-old is already sending just about every hard line in the world. But is the young Czech good enough to be as good—or better—than you know who? Time will tell. In the meantime, you can judge for yourself here, in this footage of Ondra climbing one of the world’s hardest, “La Rambla,” in Siurana, Spain.

6. Ultrarunning

For the past few years, ultrarunning’s biggest prize purse—the $10,00 first place reward at The North Face Endurance Challenge’s 50-mile race—has been split between Matt Carpetner and Uli Steidl. Steidl, 36, took the 10 G’s back in 2007—but last year, the 44-year-old Carpenter beat him out by more than five minutes. So who reigns supreme at the 50-mile distance? Well, as Steidl says of his rival, that might depend on where the race takes place: “Whenever we race,” Steidl says, “I know it’s going to be a good competition—unless it’s at high altitude, and then I don’t stand a chance.”

5. Ski Racing

With Bode Miller’s decision to opt out of the rest of the ski racing season earlier this month—and now possibly eyeing retirement—we thought it was high-time for us to adopt a new face of American skiing. So here now, very officially, we pass the mantle on to Lindsey Vonn. Just last week, the 24-year-old became the first American woman to ever win two overall World Cup crowns (watch a video). The one thing Vonn hasn’t won is Olympic gold—she was a favorite for the downhill at the Torino Games in ’06 but got injured and finished eighth. So who stands in her way of total domination at the Vancouver Games next winter? We think the ones to watch will be Linsday Vonn and Maria Reisch, Vonn’s closest friend—and rival. The two spent Christmas this year together with Reisch’s family in Germany and often share the podium together, as well. Vancouver should be interesting.

4. Surfing

Andy Irons and Kelly Slater have been carrying the torch as surfing’s big rivalry since 2003, when the 31-year-old Slater was making a comeback, threatening the 25-year-old Iron’s post as the reigning world champ. And even after Iron’s slump last season, we still say surfing’s big rivalry is… Andy Irons and Kelly Slater. Yep, the boys still got it. Their much-hyped dislike for each other is one for the record books. Add to that the fact that a happy ending may be on the horizon: Just yesterday (March 15, 2009) Iron Brothers Productions released a new documentary called A Fly in the Champagne, capturing a two-week big-wave trip to Indonesia that Irons and Slater took—together! Willingly! Doubtful they actually kiss and make up, but this, we’ll need to see for ourselves.

3. and 2. LanceLanceLanceLance!

At least 99.8 percent of Tour coverage this July is going to revolve around seven-time champ Armstrong’s return. (That’s an in-house ADVENTURE estimate, mind you.) And rightly so: No one’s done more to popularize the sport in the states. Still, after a three-and-a-half-year break from professional competition, is he still the rider to beat? We think so. Our eyes will be trained on: Lance Armstrong, Alberto Contador, and Levi Leipheimer. Okay, so we fudged and made this one a three-way tie. But after the 26-year-old Contador’s 2007 Tour de France win and Leipheimer’s first-place finish at last month’s Tour of California—where Armstrong finished 7th—it’s too close to call. The trio will be riding as teammates on the Astana ticket, but all three will be bidding for the yellow jersey.

1. Snowboarding

At the Burton U.S. Open this week (opensnowboarding.com), everyone knows Shaun White’s the dude to beat. But lately there’s been a crop of up-and-comers threatening his perennial place on the superpipe podium’s top spot. The ones to watch? We say it’s Shaun White and Kevin Pearce, another Burton shredder who beat White out at the 2008 X-Games superpipe.

Source: www.examiner.com | We rank the top five international athletes around the world. The criteria used include accomplishments, popularity and name recognition, impact, earnings, sport popularity, and long-term coverage in the media. The athletes on this list come from tennis, soccer, baseball, boxing, track and field, hockey, and MMA.
Note: U.S.-based athletes are excluded from this list (i.e., Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, etc.).

10.  Alexander Ovechkin (Hockey)
Country of Origin: Russia
The 2009 NHL MVP earns about $12 million a year. He is a two-time league MVP and holds a lot of promise being only 24 years old. Unfortunately, Alexander Evechkin's lack of English fluency makes it difficult for him to become more popular in the American mainstream.

9.  Fedor Emilianenko (MMA)
Country of Origin: Russia
Fedor Emilianenko is the World Alliance of MMA Heavyweight Champion.  The 33-year old is one of the most popular fighters in an increasingly visible sport that is gaining traction with major networks.  MMA is extremely appealing to the young demographic.  Many pay homage to the formidable Russian-born prize fighter.
8.  Alberto Pujols (Baseball)
Country of Origin: Dominican Republic
The 30-year old is the 2009 National League MVP.  Pujols along with Alex Rodriguez are chasing home run and slugging-related records.  He is excelling in a sport that is fairly popular, and thus earns about $18 million annually.  He is one of the three best hitters in baseball.  Additionally, Pujols is probably the best athlete to ever come out of the Dominican Republic.

7.  Usain Bolt (Track and Field)
Country of Origin: Jamaica
The sky is the limit for the 23 year old Jamaican considered by far the world's fastest human.  What Usain Bolt was able to accomplish at the 2008 Beijing Olympics was simply mind boggling.  He won three gold medals at the 2009 World Championships.  The fastest man in the planet shattered his Beijing world records at the 2009 world championships. The name Usain Bolt is familiar with most sports fans despite belonging to a sport that is covered by the press infrequently.  At just 23, Bolt is the best athlete to ever come out of Jamaica.

6.  Rafael Nadal (Tennis)
Country of Origin: Spain
The 23-year old won the 2009 Australian Open and earns over $31 million a year. He is largely known as an elite player second only to Switzerland's Roger Federer, Nadal displays tremendous energy on the court and lays everything on the line each and every game - a trait that resonates with millions of fans in a sport with hundreds of millions of followers.  Nadal, at just 23, is the best athlete to ever come out of Spain.

Manny Pacquiao | Boxing

5.  Manny Pacquiao (Boxing)
Country of Origin: Philippines
Philippine national hero Manny Pacquiao, 31, is regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time.  He sports a record of 50 wins, 3 losses, and 2 draws, and is the WBO welterweight champion of the world.  Pacquiao is universally regarded as the best athlete to ever come out of the Philippines.  Additionally, he is regarded as the best Asian boxer of all time.
The Filipino earned close to $40 million in 2009 and intends to run for congress in his native land in May 2010.  While boxing is gaining in popularity, the sport remains a niche activity in the minds of mainstream fans, having fallen out of the top 15 American sports.  A prospective fight with undefeated American Floyd Mayweather, Jr could become the biggest fight in boxing in over 30 years.  Pacquiao's mythos, it is said, is rivaling Muhammad Ali's.

4.  Dirk Nowitzki (Basketball)
Country of Origin: Germany
Germany's Dirk Nowitzki, 31, earned close to $30 million in 2009.  Nowitzki has been a fixture as one of the NBA's elite players, and is the franchise player for the Dallas Mavericks.  He is the best basketball player to come out of Germany, and one of the best German athletes ever.  Dirk Nowitzki is the NBA's top international player for most of the past decade, Nowitzki continues to pursue winning a NBA championship ring.  He starred in his eighth consecutive all-star game in 2009.
3.  Maria Sharapova (Tennis)
Country of Origin: Russia
The 22-year old Russian is the most popular Eastern European athlete in the world, and earned close to $24 million in 2009.  Maria Sharapova endorses for companies such as Nike, Tiffany, Canon, and Land Rover.  There are more accomplished athletes on this list - Sharapova won the 2008 Australian Open.  However, her beauty earns her high visibility among sports fans around the world.  Sharapova recently signed a $70 million deal with Nike.

2.  David Beckham (Soccer)
Country of Origin: England
David Beckham, 34, is not just one of the top international athletes of the world, he is a global cultural icon and celebrity.  Along with actor Brad Pitt, Beckham is one of the most followed cultural personalities in the world.  His official Facebook page attracts over two million followers.  In 2008, he was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame.  The name "David Beckham" is one of the most searched names on Google and Yahoo in the decade of the 2000s.  In 2009, he earned about $23 million.  He is one of the few athletes in which fans do not necessarily have to watch him in a game - they follow him wherever, whenever, regardless.

1.  Roger Federer (Tennis)
Country of Origin: Switzerland
The top-ranked international athlete in the world today is none other than tennis superpower Roger Federer.  There is ongoing debate whether Federer or Pete Sampras is the sport's greatest player ever.  A large percentage think that the Swiss is simply the greatest tennis player of all time.  At 28, Federer set the record for most career Grand Slam titles in 2009.  He earned close to $33 million in 2009.  He won at Wimbledon to clinch the record for all-time Grand Slam titles.  Federer endorses products of companies such as Nike, Mercedes-Benz, Rolex, and Gillette.

10. Anna Kournikova - No list of the top 10 sexiest female athletes would be complete without the inclusion of Anna Kournikova.  Nuff said plus she lives right here in SOBE.  Anna is my top 10 sexiest female athlete.  Now let me count the other numbers down.

9. Lokelani McMichael This little hottie triatholoner got Jenny all hot and bothered.  She models on the side and has appeared in Esquire and FHM among other publications.   A Hawaiian native, she says her name is really Lokelani Kuulei Make Mai which means "Heavenly rose my precious flower lei."  And I would love to get lei'd by you Sweetie - hubba hubba!

8. Michelle Wie Not only the sexiest female professional golfer, but also the biggest rack I've ever seen on an Asian - especially a Korean, outside of my own whoppers of course, which are real - real expensive. 

6.  Gabrielle Reece  I love volley ball.  So much bouncing, so much spiking, so much orgasmic shouting from the ladies!  Oh, and volley ball as we know it usually takes place on a beach with hot babes scantily clad in bikinis.  Oh yeah, Jenny love volley ball and I love Gabrielle Reece.
Ms. Reece has appeared on the covers of Shape, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Women's Sports and Fitness.  Co-wrote book called "Big Girl in the Middle." She's 5th in NCAA in career blocks and is a member if the FSU Athletics Hall of Fame. 


7. Marion Jones Arguably the best female athlete in the world.  First of all, have you seen those abs? There's no doubt Marion's not only one of the most dominant athletes on the planet, but she's also one of the most beautiful.

5.  Shannon Elizabeth The jury is still out as to whether poker can be considered a sport.  The jury is still out as to whether American Pie star Shannon Elizabeth is actually a good poker player.  I happen to believe she is but once I learn how to play I could probably kick her skinny white ass.  Shannon is now playing online poker exclusively for Bodog Poker.

And now for my top three sexiest female athletes:
3. Fabiola de Silva - Fabio-lous!  The Queen is one of the most exotic candidates on The List. Born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Fabby speaks English and Portuguese.  Fabby is widely regarded as the world's best and most recognizable female inline skater. Her explosion onto the scene led to what is known as the "Fabiola Rule," allowing women to participate in the men's vert competitions. The "Queen of the Halfpipe" moved from a novelty act to a legit competitor, consistently finishing with the top 10 men and winning several vert and street competitions.


4. Laila Ali - Nicknamed "She Bee Stingin," Muhamad Ali's sexy daughter can kick box me any time.  Jenny loves a girl who ain't afraid to pull punches.  Laila has a perfect 10-0-0 record with 8 KO's including a decision over Jackie Frazier. She's graced the covers of Heart and Soul, Jet and Muscular Development and made Vogue's "100 Best Dressed" list.  Hey, she's almost as pretty as Oscar Dela Hoya!!!


2. Danica Patrick Damn this girl got me watching NASCAR!  This attractive 5-foot-1, 100-pound woman, battles in a man's world with amazing success - sorta like Moi - and shows the determination to become one of the nation's brightest sports stars.
