After a month-long voting period that drew over 500,000 ballots, AskMen.com released its Top 49 Most Influential Men of 2009 list today, and it turns out that a shocking number of AskMen’s readers want to be Dana White when they grow up. Coming in at #10, the UFC president managed to beat out such heavy hitters as Jay-Z (#11), Jon Stewart (#13), Quentin Tarantino (#15), Conan O’Brien (#16), Brad Pitt (#21), Manny Pacquiao (#24), and Kanye West (#26). He also came in ahead of one of his star employees, welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre, who made the list at a very respectable #36, right between Andy Roddick and Coldplay’s Chris Martin. Said Dana of his impressively high placement on the Top 49:
Oddly enough, the list’s #1 spot was taken by a fictional character — Don Draper, the smooth-talking, scotch-drinking, stewardess-banging superhero of AMC’s Mad Men. (Sorry, Jon Hamm, you’ll get ‘em next year.) You can check out the rest of the list right here.

LOL @ Barack Obama being #3 after Don Draper and Usain Bolt. When Usain ran really fast at the Olympics, IT CHANGED EVERYTHING.

I can't make any sense of this list. Pretty hard to believe where everyone ended up.

Coming in at #50, Hermes Franca, who's really been having trouble making these cuts lately.

It DID change everything, Richard. Before Usain Bolt, who ever heard of a black guy running really fast?

What a stupid list. How the hell is that piece of shit Kanye West an influential person, and how the hell did he get #26?

All lists are pretty lame. And that includes every MMA site's power rankings.

Ask Men is a fucking retarded site. They must pay people a lot to talk about their asinine polls.

You think the MGM Grand could've wiped that gold emblem plate off before the press conference?
