Warning: Story contains coarse language
Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler has named former NFL wide receiver Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson his favorite athlete of all time, in part because of the wideout's unapologetic attitude.
Butler explained his admiration for Johnson during a recent Instagram Live chat with Carmelo Anthony.
"He's easily my favorite athlete of all time just because he was unapologetically him," Butler said. "Like, he did not care. He's like, 'Yo, I ate McDonald's, but I'm the best ... I train like I'm supposed to train, so I can eat McDonald's.' He don't care. He's never apologized for it."
