Athletes Who Have Done Something Bad

Trial of the Century says everything

The most infamous trial in history, for the murder of his wife, and had the worlds slowest police chase that kept people watching - germshep24

It's pretty obvious he committed the murder. There's way more evidence for it than against it. - Solacress

He killed he dies

Benoit is kinda overrated in Wrestling Entertainment, he was just a legend for what he do not in Wrestling, you know what I mean. - CedreticFomento

Infamous for killing his wife and his 7 year old son, and then committing suicide on June 24, 2007. - MrCoolC

Just saying, I like the basis behind this list, but the title is too vague. "Athletes Who've Committed Horrible Crimes" or something like that seems more fitting.

Stuck a bullet in his head - lilrocketman

He actually killed a guy. He should be #1. - Y2K

I expected him to be higher on the list. - B1ueNew

Should be lil bit higher - dripallways

He's still a good boxer, people looked at him negatively for alleged sexual abuse. - BorisRule

What he has done is not as bad as most of the other people on this list. He's just the most famous. And it was just an allegation - venomouskillingmachine

He was a really good boxer until that sexual assault charge. - DarkBoi-X

He was still a good boxer but wasn't looked at the same way. - ParasN2000

Allegedly killed his wife

I don't understand what this list is doing in the featured section. This is not an HQ list by any stretch of the imagination, maybe because it's popular, but that doesn't make it a Quality list. Quality lists should be about great content and effort, not because it's voted on by millions of creatures. Look at the other lists in that section, those are the epitome of a Quality list except lame Best Songs and best Video games list. - Vip3r

Child abuse probably deserves to be higher than #9 (his 4-year-old son's legs were with slash-like wounds). Peterson admitted he still uses some forms of punishment to "discipline" his son. - Metal_Treasure

How could someone do this to there child like for real I would do anything for my family I would never do anything like that! - RylinB

I honestly hope he rots. What he did to his child is unforgivable. - TwilightKitsune

He recklessly injured his 4 year old son. - DarkBoi-X

Shot and murdered his wife through a door and will deny it until the cows come home. - ParasN2000

We all know what he did. But was it intentional?

He should also be higher. - B1ueNew

His last name "Rice" lolol

He assaulted his fiance in an elevator and dragged her to where the security cameras captured it. - DarkBoi-X

The video of him doing it is hard to watch - BreakFastBeast2005

Knocking his girlfriend out is the worst

This is the person, who bites opponents, as if he was a vampire or a dog. - BorisRule

The biting is bad but funny.

Human vampire

He was known for that incident in which he racially abused Patrice Evra - DarkBoi-X

Another racism incident in which he mocked a baseball player of asian descent and called him "little chinese boy" in spanish. - DarkBoi-X

Racist guy got that ugly ass batting stance - dripallways

Every batter has a different stance you knucklehead. Plus, he made a dumb mistake. He owned up. Time to forgive and move on. Let him learn from his mistake. - BUETBU91

Wait do people go to jail for cheating on their wife. I don't think it is that bad. - Luckys

Is that guy sent to jail for "speaking against" his wife? - BorisRule

This is one of the biggest stories of an athlete. Came out very emotional speaking up about cheating on his wife. He was never again the great golfer he had been prior. - ParasN2000

He should be higher on that list!

Give the woman a break. She is a respectable Tennis player. There are murderers on this list.. - ParasN2000

Give her a break she was probably stress and she has a baby she was probably a lot tired

She was a respected tennis player until she did a really embarrassing temper tantrum after she lost a game. - DarkBoi-X

My mom watches tennis and is a fan of Serena. - PhoenixAura81

Once thought to be a wonderful athlete, now is a has-been, a literal dope who used performance enhancing steroids, cheating when he won the Tour de France seven times. Now he's stripped of his world records and has to live the rest of his pathetic life with the consequences and important fact: CHEATERS NEVER WIN. - SailorSedna

What a total scumbag. To do what he did but more importantly to go after people so viciously who accused him of something he was guilty for; this guys moral compass is completely out the window

Yeah, Armstrong doped, and the story blew up like a bomb. But performance enhancing drugs aren't anything new in sports.

Taking steriods isn't a good reason to to put them on do something bad otherwise this list would be bombarded with athletes because most do it - germshep24

If you said that he was bad then your trash

Will do anything to win super bowls and is the biggest sore loser in nfl history - princepretty

What did he do? - B1ueNew

Though he was never convicted, there was an incident in the early 2000's where a woman claimed he sexually assaulted her somewhere. I don't remember the details, but that's why - MasonOcker

Dude he the BLACK MAMBA he didn't do anything wrong! and by the way he better than you

wait what

I actually met Patrick Kane before (I'm from Chicago) and was really nice. I never heard of the thing he did with the taxi cab driver before though. - venomouskillingmachine

A hockey player who was arrested after he beat up a cab driver. - DarkBoi-X

He had not given income tax

I think some people put him on here because he threw a chair at his teacher in the 7th grade - princepretty

What did he do? - DarkBoi-X

Yeah I agree with you what did Cristiano do what is he doing on this list - Lpsgirl

He existed

He had two altercations in which were unreported in the midst of the 2018 season, and got released from the team for not saying (lying) it sooner than later. One of the brightest stars may just be another Ray Rice nobody saw coming. - htoutlaws2012

And here’s Ray Rice 2.0...
(Why did you have to be an idiot!?) - Randomator

What did he do get on this list - princepretty

@princepretty
Hulk was disgusted that his daughter was with a black man, and went into an anti-black rant, repeatedly using the n-word (and he even used homophobic slurs once too), causing a huge scandal to where WWE even removed him from their website temporarily. - SailorSedna

A convicted murderer, of his then pregnant girlfriend, who left his own son mentally challenged and he’s not In the top 5. Lower ranked then Tome Brady this list is a joke.

Yeah, he killed his girlfriend, right? - Camaro6

Even though I like Barkley, he once spat on a little girl aiming for a heckling fan. He also threw a man through a plate glass window in a bar fight. - THC13

No he is a good player.WHat did he do that was wrong? - DarkBoi-X

Probably referring to him ditching his team in 2010. Douche move but not as bad as the criminals on this list. - Cesium

During an Euro 2012 game, he flashed his Paddy Power pants as a goal celebration when playing for Denmark and got fined. He’s now been sent to prison until just before Christmas

Yup, I bet! Because calling mean names is just infuriating. Being killed is an overdose of pointless pain in a nutshell.

Other than that, while it's debatable that Zac Efron is now the boyfriend of Zendaya, Jennette McCurdy would be a MUCH better boyfriend than her because not only does Zac Efron have a LOT of skills, but he is lso down-to-earth, mellow and easy to talk to inr real life too! In fact, I, The Ultimate Daredevil would love to make a sports-based cartoon series known as Basebrawl starring Zac Efron and Jennette McCurdy as stylized husband-and-wife/teammate characters with humanoid bodies modelled after themselves! You can go on my Wordpress account to learn about Frigid Fire!

P. S. Yeah, maybe there ARE worst athletes than Serena Williams, but she would still be high on this list because she had an ABUSIVE temper tantrum and did VERY dumb things like claim sexism for losing to Naomi Osaka, who is an ideal athlete for being both completely fair as a winner ...more

He broke up with girls by calling them "Ratchet hoe". Enough said?

Well there's difference between killing people than making offensive slangs right? - htoutlaws2012

He beat up his own mother. The one who gave birth and fed him, he beat her up.

Should be higher - BreakFastBeast2005

He's going on DWTS this year what - Cesium
