This is it. I’ve documented the time that monster0ultra finally committed hubris. Sorry pal, but Matt London is objectively the best athlete of all time, and the hottest.


I don’t know enough about international athletes to make a top 5 all time list. It’s gonna be heavily America based.

1. Wilt
2. Bo Jackson
3. Rocky Marciano
4. Wayne Gretzky
5. Lebron James

Greatest Athlete is an individual accomplishment, NOT a team accomplishment and this is why Wilt and Pele are the only true team sports athletes on my list.

Muhammad Ali

Jim Thorpe

Usain Bolt

Pele

Wilt Chamberlain

Jones is a joke, UFC is too niche and he only has one fight at the top level.

LeBron is a douchebag but that's an easy argument to make. He's the leading scorer all time at the highest level of his sport.

I'm kind of biased as a Titans fan, but I would throw Steve McNair, Eddie George and Derrick Henry in there.

Pretty clear most of you don't know what an athlete is.

LOL at mentioning Tiger, when it's a game of skill.

Yep, Golf is about as athletic as Snooker & as much as I love Snooker & my avatar was extremely skilled at it, along with playing Chess to a high level in his spare time & being a decent Poker player, he wasn't an athlete.

Same goes for Brady, he plays entirely with skill. He is a pathetic athlete and one of the reasons he was never drafted high / backup.

Brady would have won every superbowl in the 70s and 80s. You should watch some of his hits from the first quarter of his career before they changed the rules. Dude is an Ironman
