Michael Jordan is certainly one of the most iconic basketball players to have ever stepped foot inside a basketball court. He is also no stranger to setting records. Now it seems Michael Jordan even has one particular athlete that he has always feared.

Jordan is still the king when it comes to being the richest NBA star in the history of the sport. He earned more in his business ventures than he did during his time as an active NBA player. His net worth is said to be is $1.6 billion.

While speaking with Steph Curry on his YouTube channel, Michael Jordan was asked about who he feared the most in the world of sports. Michael Jordan’s answer was certainly a surprising one as he revealed it to be golfer Ian Poulter.

“I’m not scared of anybody…but Ian Poulter.I used to go and watch him all the time. If I’m in any of his matches or walking down, he finds me after he makes a good putt, and it’s like, ‘Man, I didn’t do anything. I like you. I support you.’ I stay away from him when I’m walking. I won’t go watch him.”
