Best of the Best

Post by The Fox »

Who do you think out of all sports is the best at what they do and why?

My choice is: Roger Federer.

I don't like tennis but, he is amazing at it :evil: :(

I agree with most of those but i should have said in todays era! Also pick one who stands out above all the rest.

The best sportsman in the world today!

I would also say Phil Taylor in Darts is about the best sportsman in the world.

Good choice but as a cycling historian nut Eddy Mercyk is the greatest cyclist ever!

The Tour de France is my fave sporting event of the year 8) 

If anyone is into cycling read Mrco Pantini's biography he's a god!

Jim Thorpe - won the decathlon and pentathlon in the same Olympics.

Reinhold Messner - first person to summit all 14 - 8000 meter peaks without supplemental oxygen.
This is a story of courage.
