in professional sports athletes
typically give everything they have so
sometimes they may need to blow off a
little steam you want to race let’s race
I didn’t know we’re supposed to pull
over when it came down to five to go man
I raced him hard
raised him smart raced him clean and he
wants to come over here about it so
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
hot-headed athletes for this list we’re
focusing on professional athletes that
have been known to lose their tempers in
the spirit of competition I understand
putting your tough guys on the ice they
gotta know that they don’t start
something it’s Showtime here at the
Pepsi Center so long season number ten
Terrell Owens known for his exceptional
receiving skills and larger-than-life
personality this six-time Pro Bowler was
sometimes emotional to a fault it’s my
team
it’s McCord bit perhaps Terrell Owens
most intense on-field moment came in
2000 when he disrespected the Dallas
Cowboys midfield logo in a touchdown
celebration at first it looked like just
another classic tl moment but things
escalated quickly
when cowboy safety George Teague charged
at Owens while he celebrated his second
touchdown
over the course of his career however
Owens was known to consistently butt
heads with teammates and often
transferred his energy on the field to
media interviews as well with this guy
you just never knew are you serious
I’m can judge by pencil-pushers by in
the negating I’d like that pretty good
job over the years are you serious
Carl’s Haley yeah are you serious number
nine Metta World Peace Wow here we go oh
he went right over the plant seven years
before his name change this NBA star was
all about in your face defense in fact
the man formerly known as Ron Artest
even won Defensive Player of the Year in
2004 ironically that was the same season
he took center stage in arguably the
most epic brawl in NBA history before
the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers
fought each other and fans world peace
was already a five-year veteran known
for his combative personality but when a
fan threw a coke atom he infamously lost
his cool and the rest is history though
he’s broken TV cameras and traded verbal
jabs with coaches the Coca Cola inspired
meltdown will go down as Mehta’s most
bizarre moment I’m done hey he said I’m
done Oh j’leeta
come to the bookies number eight Kurt
Busch it was the camera guy who had the
camera in my face and he’s on me without
the camera rolling and that’s what
pissed me off can you get in the world
of stock car racing drivers don’t always
have time to physically Duke it out with
competitors but someone like Kurt Busch
is a master in the art of mid race
taunting and post race scuffles then
again such hot-headed antics have
occasionally backfired
most notably in Bush’s feud with Jimmy
Spencer what do you got you have the run
of your life and you think you got
nothing the guy even beefed with his
younger brother in 2007 as well as just
about anybody that gets in his way
Bush had to be restrained from
nascar.com reporter Joe Menzer on pit
road whether it’s the long-standing feud
with Tony Stewart or even Kevin Harvick
looks like Kyle our Kurt Busch lost the
car and then hit the right front of
Kevin’s car Bush seems to thrive on
drama and retaliation which has led to a
turbulent career and a controversial
public persona I messed up I should have
been able to handle the pressures that’s
what the responsibilities of a driver of
my caliper should be number seven
Andy Roddick here do you have yours
he’s a fun-loving guy off the court and
the husband of supermodel Brooklyn
Decker Andy had a temper that he lets
show on the court occasionally but in
the heat of competition Andy Roddick
could get nasty his talent alone made
him one of the more entertaining tennis
stars of his day but this a-rod’s temper
tantrums would crank the entertainment
level up to 11 as long as you weren’t a
line judge on the receiving end of his
cutting insults next time go ahead and
watch it instead of being so concerned
with making your voice heard okay Andy’s
meltdown resume is extensive and he’d
speak with such clarity that everyone
could fully understand him to be fair
Roddick usually kept his language clean
even if it seemed like he was about to
drop a few expletives but that didn’t
take anything away from the hothead
quotient
number six luis suarez a native of
uruguay and striker for FC Barcelona
this footballer will happily nutmeg his
opponents and sometimes assault them as
well while playing for IX in the Dutch
League in 2010 Luis Suarez actually bit
Oatman bacall which preceded subsequent
bites on Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic in
2013 and poor Giorgio Chiellini at the
World Cup the following year such
behavior is led to countless apologies
from Suarez but his temper seems to
reach a boiling point when the stakes
are high in fact media personalities and
fans can usually predict his hot-headed
moment and despite his high level of
play the name Luis Suarez has become
synonymous with Perpetual yellow or red
cards I think it was just instinct any
player would have done the same not just
me
number 5 Nolan Ryan it was no contest as
Nolan Ryan rang up 17 strikeouts as the
all-time strikeout leader of Major
League Baseball
this Texan was a legendary force on the
mound amazing simply amazing and Nolan
Ryan wasn’t afraid to serve up some Chin
Music to make a point either emerging in
the late 60s he understood the unwritten
rules of baseball ethics and when
somebody crossed him they could fully
expect some retribution in August of
1993 about six weeks before Ryan tossed
his final pitch he put a thorough
beating on Robin Ventura who
inexplicably charged that the legend
like a Raging Bull unfortunately for
Ventura the elder statesman of the
diamond took care of business one last
time
number four Serena Williams arguably one
of the greatest tennis players ever
Serena Williams never fails to impress
with her focus and extreme passion she’s
a master of the forehand return and once
topped 128 miles per hour with a single
serve
but while such an aggressive style of
play has its perks
Serena’s temper can also be her downfall
you’re not making it super enjoyable
this is being honest because when Serena
gets heated well you can expect a racket
to be smashed and someone to receive a
proper tongue lashing this is all part
of the Serena Williams experience and
she usually manages to bounce back but
every so often she goes off the deep end
and fails to control her hot-headed
nature on the court number three Ron
Hextall pets dog goes barreling out at
one of the Canadians
truly a revolutionary goaltender thanks
to his active style of play this former
flyer and one time nordic and islander
went above and beyond the NHL norm here
he goes bidding for one here’s the care
there it is
heck scoffs chronically empty net not
only did Ron Hextall fiercely guard the
net and changed the way his position can
be played he wasn’t afraid to stand up
to his opponents either as a result many
a suspension came his way but with his
reputation established coaches and
players knew what to expect
here comes Hicks tall and putt Ben and
hex collar indigo I know Felix
a good idea playing the majority of his
career with the blue-collar Philadelphia
Flyers heck stalls most turbulent years
came in the late 80s when he would rack
up the most penalty minutes for a
goaltender in NHL history you don’t have
to be sweet
to be good number two John McEnroe you
can’t be serious man you cannot be
serious
over the course of his esteemed playing
career this legendary tennis hothead won
a grand total of seven Grand Slam
singles titles code violation record
abuse point the penalty mr. Manhattan
and while some modern tennis players
often seem like they’re performing
during a meltdown John McEnroe went
nuclear time and time again my question
the question jerk he’d hurl insults that
line judges he produced some of the more
creative racket smash has ever seen and
he’d even yell a few curse words when
the time felt right there was no
predicting what Johnny Mac would do and
given his facial expressions and body
behavior it seemed like even he didn’t
know what to expect the Johnny Mac put
the news too since you cannot be serious
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions
Boudreau comes over
was taking the house down it’s become
like a common thing in the NHL for guys
to fall in love with my sloppy seconds
how they sought to get my portion us
when he speak me squeezing the bolt
maybe really squeeze them toward I was I
honestly I thought I’d lost my family
allowance number one Mike Tyson there’s
no referee Danny’s third choice
front punch Istanbul in case this is man
in the sporting world some athletes try
to intimidate while others are naturally
terrifying in the mid-1980s Mike Tyson
struck fear into the hearts of opponents
through his size technique and monster
uppercuts
but as Tyson’s career progressed his
temperament utterly destroyed his
momentum looking back it’s easy to laugh
at some of iron Mikes more bizarre
moments but when he bit off a piece of
Evander Holyfield’s right ear in 1997
Tyson set a new standard for outlandish
behavior among hot-headed athletes who
fit his the ax that’s what Paulie fills
in a lot of pain from that
definitely a bite once known as the
baddest man on the planet
Tyson’s unpredictable behavior sold
tickets but ultimately tarnished his
legacy as well do you agree with our
list which athlete do you think is the
most hot-headed he did not just take
mom’s for more explosive top 10s
published every day be sure to subscribe
to watchmojo.com looks like he’s
actually sunk his Nashes in there what
on earth is he doing he’s being bought
