Stephen A. was SHOCKED to hear this about Messi 😂  

Bro thought America made Messi famous 🤣

SAS really thought he had more followers than arguably the best soccer player of all time? C’mon mannnnn 😂😂😭😭😭

SaS got humbled quick when he thought Messi had 5.3 million to his 4.4 million followers. When molly dropped the 469 million, SaS look like he was about to cry 😁

Stephen A's ego really allowed himself to believe he was even close to the same level of fame as Messi LMFAO

SAS was humbled oso fast 🤣🤣🤣

A wise man once said that humans weren’t made to be humble but were made to be humbled.

The audacity to say "just to correct you".😂😂😂😂😂

This is worse than SAS tryna talk about the UFC and Boxing lmao

America is starting to realise how big football is.

Messi has more Instagram followers than there are NFL and NBA fans combined

Dude tried to compare himself to the Goat of the most popular sport in the world 😂😂😂😂

Bro really thought he had more followers than Messi. He has nearly half a BILLION. XD That's a good portion of the planet.

Ain't no way SAS thought he could hang with the GOAT

Bro took it personal at the end 😂😂

Since the day this was aired, Messy got 4 mill followers, Now he is 473 mill. All those SAS followers went to follow Messi, LOL

Lmao I hate that feeling when you can’t even say anything back, just gotta hold your hands up

5.3 I not that much than 4.4 that I have 😂😂 My man ego got busted when hear 469 million 😂

he learned that day that there are places outside america🤣

"Just to correct you" - priceless. LOL.

SAS's "Oh" was from his soul. 😂😂

Bruh the way they thought messi's followers jumped from 1M to 5M after signing to mls... Lord have mercy I'm howlinggg 🤣🤣

Please Steven A do the homework before talking about the goat 🐐 😂😂😂

I can’t wait to see Stephen A. talking about Messi quite regularly after his first games - because We all know it: this will happen!

I’m an American and a soccer coach and i NEVER watch MLS. I watch La liga, premier and even the Mexican league is more interesting than MLS. However! Now that Messi is here I’m finally going to start watching every Miami game from start to finish! Because of Messi. I’m telling you him coming to our country is the biggest blessing to our culture and he will definitely inspire more people to join the beautiful game

Bro thought he was bigger than Messi 😂

Bro Messi and CR7 got more followers than the whole NBA league + all the news reporters combined 😂

Messi fanbase is more than the population of America

Stephen A. is a legend in his own mind.

Messi is world famous not like some of the athletes who are only famous in the USA

LOL DUDE REALLY COMPARING HIMSELF TO THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME

Never ever compare messi to ur hairline stephen A smith

In terms of reality check... that was brutal.

Messi has more follower than whole population of USA

Messi 460 million followers Cristiano : 571 million instagram followere Michael Jordan: 27 million followers. Perspective.

500 Million now❤

4.4 mil x 106.5 😂😂😂😂😂

Football is real , Messi is worldwide super star

They just don't how big of a star Lionel Messi is worldwide !! same goes for the others, such as CR7, Ney, Kylian etc...

SAS Talking about soccer 😂😂😂

Molly needs to STAY OFF THE WEEEEEEEEEED

Bro got a inner shock on his brain

American speaking loudly and confidently about something he had zero idea about. Yes that fits the bill

Americans finding out the vastness of football XD

It’s crazy to think that since messi signed for Inter Miami that they now have more instagram followers than any NFL, MLB or NHL team. Goes to show how global a game football is whereas those sports only have interest in USA. Also how absolutely gorgeous is Molly Qerim here

EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 😂

I love how he seems embarrassed after realizing he is a fool

SAS thought he was even near that level😭😂 there’s levels to fame. People like Messi & Cr7 are as close to how gods were worshipped by greek

This man’s ego is growing to the size of Dallas 😂

Messi when he was asked about Steven's comments: *_"Who the fook is that guy?!"_*

European superstar he is global star

Lmao he really thought😂

Stephen a was like i almost have him there 😂

Enough evidence that espn needs to let these folks go.

SAS is not just ignorant about Messi. Ignorance is his trademark.

you compare The God of football to a mortal? you all need to stop smoking whatever you smoking

I'm shocked by Molly's beauty 😍

I've never heard of this stephen guy😂, but I've known messi since I was a kid and I'm now 27.

In other news, he also thinks Elon Musk has just a tiny bit more money than him

Humbled him real quick lol

Bro got humbled real quick 😂😂😂

This man actually thought he could ever be in the same sentence as Messi. That ego is out of control.

In terms of popularity, Messi and Ronaldo will humble any other athlete easily even in America they are very well known.

Bro imagine if Messi only had 1M IG followers 😅😅😅😅😅

I still find it absolutely hilarious how ignorant Americans are about the rest of the world. No offense btw to any Americans who might read my comment. Still, the US only has 329 million inhabitants, while the entire planet consists of 8 billion people. The world simply does NOT revolve around the US like Americans seem to assume. Messi is legit the most popular person alive right now (with Ronaldo), and every single celebrity you can think of isn't even in the same planet. SAS brought up how Messi is a superstar in "Europe". No, man. He's THE superstar (with Ronaldo) in the WORLD. Look at how the Chinese welcomed him recently in Beijing. The entire city was swarmed with millions of people dressed in Messi jerseys. Likewise, when he won the World Cup, dozens of cities around the world went nuts during public viewings (there is a nice video here on RU-vid that has a compilation of all the worldwide celebrations). Then there's his gigantic fanbase in India (and cricket is their #1 sport, mind you), Bangladesh, Indonesia, parts of Africa, all of South America... it simply isn't just Europe at all. Messi is so famous that you can literally ask who he is to an Arab camel herder, a Nepali farmer, a villager from Papua New Guinea or a Thai fisherman, and they WILL know (meanwhile, they won't know Kylie Jenner, Rhianna, Tom Brady and so on). Again, it's hilarious how unaware many Americans are. Football/soccer is the world sport and sits at 4 - 5 billion followers. It's almost as big as cricket (#2), basketball (#3) and hockey (#4) combined. Messi has ruled that sport for almost 20 years. It really is no wonder that he's as popular as he is (same with Ronaldo). It wouldn't be an exaggeration at all to call him the modern-day equivalent of the Beatles or Michael Jackson when it comes to popularity. Heck, he might be bigger than they ever were. I can't get over how SAS seriously thought that Messi has only 5 million followers on IG 😂...

MLS is not a G-league to european Football, It would be a Z-league

no way he actually thought he was more famous than Messi 😭😭😭😭

Americans really do believe that they are the center of the universe. There is life outside of these walls.

Dude I love how Molly let him say all that and then goes, oh no dude MESSI has 400+ million in talking about the Club account LOLOLOLOL😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣 SAS really thought he had more followers then Messi typical American arrogance 😅

SaS thinkin he on Messi’s level 🤣 the guy is arguably the most famous person on human earth.

You just had to tell the whole world you had 4.4 million followers .pride!! Now u got humbled

Bro! Got humbled!

Messi and Ronaldo is the biggest sports superstars in the world the past decade. Sad to say that American sports ain't that big outside US. Many of us Europeans hardly don't even know what MLS is

Lebron & Jordan are superstars but Ronaldo & Messi are megastars.

"Near the top of his game" Prime Messi would dribble past the whole team and score

loved your comment about NF using his music as a way to process his trauma. he actually has a whole album called therapy session. in the intro song to that album he says that he needs to do this and if he wasn’t making music he’d rather die. very dark but very relatable.

Molly is so fine bruh

Messi is bigger than america 🖤

Lmfao he thought his popularity was comparable to Messi 😂😂😂😂😂

Come on SAS....get it together

Im so glad Stephen a talked about Messi. I know he doesn’t like soccer, but it’s the biggest sport in the world and the greatest to ever play is coming to America

Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body.

Because of talking about Messi I got to know him😂

People just fail to understand how big the beautiful sport football, soccer, is outside of the states…

how stephen smith has a job is beyond me .

Bro really thought Messi had just 5 million followers lol💀

Bro got humbled real quick 🤣🤣🤡

and If instagram wasn't banned in china. He would easily have a Billion followers.

The fact he really thought he stood a chance. Smh 🌊🌊🌊🌊

This is a visualization of "shut up about what you don't understand"

Broh I’m a editor in messi fan pages, even our page got 10 million followers 😂😂😂

Never been a huge fan of Messi (nor Ronaldo but I did like him more) However, most Americans, ordinary people and sports journalists, arent even aware of the COLLOSAL impact and influence those 2 guys have worldwide everywhere except in America But they will learn pretty soon now that he is over there

😂😂😂 becareful when talking about the goat. US is just a small fraction of the world. Here in Ghana as in the case of most African countries, football as you call it soccer is on top of all the sports. I got to know about you after I started following the NBA for about some few years now. Messi is a global icon and also mostly considered the 🐐. MJ is the only NBA player who MIGHT come close to his fame.

Sometimes it's worth dreaming. it's ok to make our own happiness

He really thought he had close to messi🤣

To give SAS some credit on him getting humbled. He didn't hesitate to acknowledge the difference of talents from European league vs American league. (Also I'm out of the loop on most things so maybe most people already knew that) lol

Glad that Messi is showing the world that you come to America to make it big.

Football is King!

"ohh...ohhh"😂

Humbled real quick
