Greatest Athletes of All Time

“Beyond merely changing the game of hockey, Bobby Orr could keep control of the puck and make the other 9 players on the ice look like idiotic little kids. Noone had seen that before, or since, not even in Gretzky. His +/- record of +124 wont be broken in the next 50 years, possibly ever. He simply dominated every game, end to end, that he ever played, and often on only one good knee. Noone could touch him. The maradona of hockey in my opinion.”

“The only defenseman to ever lead the NHL in scoring, he was perhaps the best team sport athlete ever.”

“Anyone who’s ever swam on a real team knows that it is the hardest sport in the world. That’s why Phelps is the greatest athlete ever.”

“Best Olympian, most gold medals”

TrinityTrojan

“best olympian ever. from U. S. A.”

jwileson

“All-time soccer leading scorer in history with over 1,000 goals in his career, and champion in two world cups with his native country Brazil making him the best soccer player in history over Argentinian astro player Diego Armando Maradona.”

“being the best player all time for the best team of all time in the best sport of all time is something”

fimbulwinter

“Complete player with both legs.
Mid Field player, not forward, and still best scorer of all time.
-Voted IOC Athelete of the Century.
-Voted FIFA Footballer of the Century.
-MOST AWARDED ATHELETE OF ALL TIME

Received by Kings and Presidents all over the world.
First athlete featured in a videogame.
Etc...etc..etc..”

“Tennis is the most competitive of all international sports. It sometime feel that when it comes to the greatest athletes list they are always biased against even though its a proven fact that tennis players are the greatest all round athletes in the world. Roger federer and Pete sampras are the greatest athletes of all time.”

“The greatest athlete of all time. Period”

“To me among all athletes all time Roger Federer’s physical balance and accuracy is the closest to perfection ever. Not one move is awkward or off balance. This along with his dominance of his sport that is unprecedented, especially given the fact that the number 50 player in the world now is a lot better than 50 years ago. And also while the game has become so physical, having a guy that wins seemlingly effortless dancing ballet on the court is even more impressive.”

“the pacquaio rules boxing today!

others say mayweather is the best but to us filipinos pacquaio is truly the greatest pound per pound boxer in the world!”

“yeah.. maybe the greatest boxer today”

“The Mexicutioner”

“Its simply put no one has broken his record of 1,000+yrd consecutive seasons and he has the most yards per carry for a carrier(5.4). He held the NCAA single season rush record with only one year starting, he never even started ’till his senior season. He’s run one of the fastest 40yrd dashes in NFL History (4.2") plus he his only 5,9 and his team sucked for every single season he played.”

“one of the best”

blackman161

“Theres one difference between Barry n the other guys on this team, n that is he never had a good team to prove his skills. His O-Line SUCKED but he still managed to get great runs. The fact that there were defenders in the backfield as soon as the ball was snaped, but he put up 5 yards a carry is amazing. THE BEST EVER!”

“he has all the records a superbowl ring, he’s just plainly the greatest.”

jwileson

“now he holds the record for most tds and yards in one year”

“he is the best qb there will ever be i mean 60000 yards come on
”

“He was fat as can be but he was an amazing baserunner and without Babe Ruth baseball would never be the sport it is today.”

Crazydudewithabeard

“He built baseball into what it is, or should be, today. He was an incredible man who broke records and accomplished things that no man ever could have dreamed of during his time. He was an incredible man that many look up to as the Great Bambino, the greatest athlete to ever live.”

“made baseball america’s national pastime did more for his sport than any other athlete.. this is evident when he hit more homeruns, than entire teams, he and ali are the most recognized athletes in the world, yes he’s better than them all he’s the best”

“Not as accomplished as others, but it is amazing to watch the man play. Even when surrounded by the best athletes in all of sports, Vick still seems to be in a different class from his competitors. Inhuman speed, quickness and acceleration with a cannon of an arm; Vick has the physical potential to be the greatest player to ever step on the field.”

“great, great football player. too bad he ruined it for himself.”

pauler94

“Vick has the physical potential to be the greatest player to ever step on the field. If he didnt act like an ******* and went dogfighting”

“Sir Donald Bradman the greatest cricketer of all time in the toughest sport of all time in one of the toughest periods on earth of all time. Batting Average of 99.94 .06 from being perfect thats why he is the greatest to be that close to being perfect is an amazing feat.”

“for an aussie cricketer to make the list among all these others from diff countries and sports shows how great he is.”

“Athlete Sport Statistic Standard deviations
Bradman Cricket Batting average 4.4
Pele Soccer Goals per game 3.7
Ty Cobb Baseball Batting average 3.6
Jack Nicklaus Golf Major titles 3.5
Michael Jordan Basketball Points per game 3.4
Bjorn Borg Tennis Grand slam titles 3.2
”

“obivously a top ten all time caliber running back (may have been best ever except he stopped playing at age 30), but was also offered to pitch for the yankees, one of the greatest lacrosse players ever (in hall of fame), good track athlete (5th in national decathalon), and could have won a national championship for syracuse if there had been no rule for not allowing 3 african american players to start for a team (Brown didn’t go out his senior year because he may not have started over 2 other players)”

danajs24

“Not only was he one of the greatest football players of all-time, but he was perhaps the greatest lacrosse player of all-time too. And he could play basketball and baseball well enough to attract the pro scouts.”

“Not only the greatest runningback of all-time in the NFL, but the man was the greatest lacrosse player to. And he was excellent in basketball and baseball and could have made the pros in those sports.”

“Fastest man ever, without even trying too much. He is athletically better than any other runner, ever. for example, he holds world record for 100 meters and its not even his favoured event”

dan161993

“He should be in the top ten!”

ACDCRocks

“oh come on! Michael Johnson was good but usain bolt won the 100 and set a world record without trying. Then he beat Michael Johnson’s time in the 200m setting another world record. Usain Bolt or bolt of lightning all the way.”

“The greatest motocrosser of all time. The toughest man in one of the worlds most demanding sports.”

“He is the greatest because he handles pressure from more than a billion people still performs......l”

“he is the best batsmen of all time .withot doubt.he ha s 15000 odi runs the highest,the 2nd highest has 11500 runs”

“Genius!”

“The NBA was a different game at the time, but Wilt’s numbers are still staggering. You know most of them but you may not be aware of his endurance as evidenced by his record career average of 45.8 minutes per game (and you thought I was going to use the number 20,000). Also, don’t forget that Chamberlain ran track and recorded a sub 11 second 100-yard dash in high school.”

“Take the 5 best years of all these folks careers and then tell me Chamberlain wasn’t the greatest ever. No one, no one ever dominated their sport like he did, with the possible exception of Ruth.”

“the coldest bball player of all time..all he needs is a team!!”

“lord of the rings”

“Guys lets be serious he should be a lot higher on this list. He is like the greatest regular season quarterback ever. He understands his surroundings and has amazing leadership. The dude was a prodigy since he was like 5. He has a superbowl ring and like a billion accolades. The guy racks up stats at record breaking pace and if you had to average all the greatest quarterbacks stats PER YEAR they don’t come close to Manning’s. Makes everyone around him better and with a sucky or good defense manages to win. Sure the lack of more postseason success hurts his chances at being deemed better but seriously he has achieved everything a pro QB can. He will break or come seriously close to every QB record in a lot shorter time than it took the original record holders to get there. Brady broke his record of 49 TDs by 1 but look at it like this. Manning got 49 TDs in 496 attempts while it took Brady 578 attempts for that 50. Plus Manning spread the ball around and as athletic Wayne and Harrison are they don’t compare to Moss. Brady just had to chuck the ball up no matter how bad and Moss came down with it. Manning threw the ball on the spot hooking up with his receivers. Plus Dungy didn’t play with a "bury them alive" run up the score mentality so Manning didn’t have as many opportunities as Brady. Brady also had a much better defense so he got the ball back more often than Manning. And as finally as far as greatest QB season is concerned in Manning’s record breaking season he had been taken off the field at the end of the games and his backup Jim Sorgi threw 2 scores. Think about it thats 51 passing TD’s for the colts and 50 for the pats. You don’t think Manning could have put up those two. In my mind Manning is the second best NFL player ever to Jerry Rice and top 50 athlete.”

“Greatest Player of ALL time nuff said”

athilos

“There is not an athlete in history who was in better physical shape or in more control of his body than Walter. He took a beating in the most brutal sport on earth for over a decade and NEVER missed a game. He once held nearly every rushing record, could play any position, won it all, and received every accolade possible. He was the best football player of all time and the greatest athlete.”

“He is 6’9, has the body of an NFL linebacker, runs like a track star, and jumps as high as anyone in the NBA. I wouldn’t be surprised if he could compete in any sport at a professional level.”

rmoore26

“best most awsome athletice ever
should be first and will win like 9 championships
”

“You guys always focus on US athletes, and recognizing yours. In reality The planet only recognizes those aathletes who move the masses world wide and of course the sport that is king of all, cause everything else is just none existing. And by the way football is play with the feet, the whole planet knows it, why don’t you?”

“awesome”

“Training regiment alone would kill most athletes. He was so determined, that he installed pull-up bars in the doorways of his house. When he walked through a door, 10 pull-ups.”

“this is ridiculous. wrestlers work the hardest out of all sports and dont get any respect. he is the best hands down.”

“Arguably the best wrestler of all time.”

“Brady is the best quarterback in football and he does it with nobodys and cast offs”

“one of the most clutch players in the history of football”

“I AGREE TOTALLY”

“I think Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, Lance Armstrong and Michael Schumacher should be in the top 10 because they are/were all in a league of their own against the strongest competition of their sports!!”

“Carl was the most exciting track athlete of all time. Track athletes are purest form of athleticism. His shear presence turned the competition into rubber and for 12 years he was basically the only player in the Long Jump (Minus 1 jump from Powell - who too turned to rubber at the Olympics). Speaking of Olympics. The Olympics are the biggest stage in the history of the world for athletic demonstration. Carl was the best of all times and proved it 4 straight times. His 1991 Tokyo world record win was spine chilling considering he was ‘over-the-hill’ by that time in sprinting. And did I mention that he was obviously a clean athlete when the rest of the sport was doping like mad. Carl, like Michael Jordan was just a step above all other greats in his sport. Remember too, the 100m sprint is the most competitive sporting event in the world. Carl was the best at this event for 8 years, and happed to make time to be even better at other events. Michael Jordan was the scoring leader for 10 years and happened to make time for golf and baseball. ï�Š Carl Lewis is the greatest athletic competitor of all times.”

“To measure the best athlete in the world the criteria must include speed and leap.

Lewis was the best in the world at both of these basic skills for over 10 years. No one is a better athlete.”

“Four golds in a row in long jump, where no one else has ever won two. Win streak over a decade long. Jumped over 29 feet three times in one meet(the same number of times the rest of the world has done it since the Creation). More jumps over 28 feet than all other humans combined. Had a jump over 30 feet(! ) in 1983 that, but for an official’s error, would have broken Beamon’s unbreakable record by a foot! Only person to repeat as 100m Olympic champion. Nine gold medals ( but for two relay blunders by others, it would be 11! ). Universally acknowledged as the fastest man EVER with a running start, even to this day. Instrumental in turning the Olympics from a money loser to the most sought after and desired event in world. Ability so far above all others in world that he was able to force IOC to allow its athletes to become professionals and so lengthen their careers and so aggrandizes the Olympics and all former amateur sports.”

“He would be higher if he was more known.”

“SHOULD DEFFINATLY BE HIGH. PLAYED 2 PROFESSIONAL SPORTS AND IN FOOTBALL CUT THE FIELD IN HALF FOR THE OFFENSE”

“Without question one of THE greatest athletes in our planet’s history. Although surfing doesn’t get the recongnition of other mainstream sports, it involves stength, balance, grace, style, endurance, creativity, and courage.”

“Coming out of college, Elway was the most sure thing first round draft pick in the NFL draft to date. Not bad for the best baseball pitcher to come out of college that year.”

“john elway is the best quarter back ever the only reason farve broke his record is because he played for way longer”

big-al

“The best bicycle racer of all-time. He won just about every big bike race in the world multiple times, some as many as five and seven times. He has over 400 professional career victories, before any of these fancy performance enhancing drugs.”

rmeadeee

“Even in a team game surrounded by world class athletes, Taylor was such a presence on the defensive side of the ball that offensive coordinators were forced to scheme their game plans to account for him.”

“Should be a lot higher on the list. Higher than Ortiz. The Peyton Manning of baseball. Killer and record breaking regular season stats but postseason failure. On average he racks up stats and accolades faster than any player in history. If he only had a ring he would be considered one of the top 10 baseball players ever. Manning got his ring, who knows A-Rod might get his soon. It’s baseball, these guys could play into their late 30s maybe 40s. Plus what makes him amazing is the fact that he is clean, no roids or HGH or anyone of that. The guy lets his talent do all the work, bringing him success and failure. Hey at least if he messes up he’ll mess up honestly not cheat and still mess up (so sad, LoDuca seriously-worst roid user ever).”

yougnr1116

“mvp”

“A-Rod is the greatest baseball player of all-time! He is a combination of speed, power, and contact like no other player in history. He was the fastest player to hit 350, 400, and 450 career homeruns and by the end of 2007, he will be the fastest player to hit 500 career homeruns. At the end of his career he will probably be the alltime homerun king aswell.”

“Nobody but nobody possessed the tremendous strength and blazing speed that Mantle had. If it hadn’t had been for bad legs, injuries, and booze, he would have hit 800 home runs. He could have played pro football or basketball, exchanged punches with Marciano in the 50’s as a professional boxer, been a powerlifter, or an Olympic decathlete. He was that talented. Mantle is, in my opinion, the greatest athlete ever. And he did it without steroids. Probably more fans paid to see Mantle play than any other athlete. Many fans also showed up early at the ballpark just see Mantle take batting practice. He is without a doubt the greatest clutch hitter in late innings MLB history. Mantle may be the fastest player ever and his perfect game-saving catch in the 1956 World Series is one of the best catches ever(very few center fielders ever could’ve made that play). Also, two players on the same team chasing Babe Ruth’s homerun record (Mantle and Maris) is the second greatest athletic feat in history, only to be topped by Cal Ripken’s unbelievable streak.”

“I can’t believe they gave The Mick this rank. I believe that any knowledgeable person who saw Mickey at his best would tell you that Mickey Mantle is one of the ten greatest athletes who ever lived.”

“Mickey Mantle is one of the most incredible and well rounded ball players to ever step onto a baseball diamond. The records and things he was able to accomplish, no one in history compares to him.”

“The best wrestler of ALL TIME”

“First of all JERRY RICE IS THE GREATEST ATHLETE OF ALL TIME! Case closed. His records, someday may be eclipsed. No man showed more determination than Jerry, todays wide receivers catch the ball and fall down or try to get out of bounds(smart sometimes)Jerry would break free and score more touchdowns than any other player in the history of the game. 3 super bowl rings (super bowl MVP)more all purpose yards than any other man. A true SPORTS LEGEND JERRY RICE.”

“The best wide receiver to ever live. They took all of jerry rices records one time, and compared them to every person who has ever played in the nfl. And there was only 7 men in all of history, who even had half.”

“She was not only a stud in track and field, she was dominant in the LPGA. In high school she was the star of her AAU team. Babe is a hall of fame track star and a hall of fame golfer. She also was an All American Basketball player. If that isn’t an athelete then i don’t know what is.”

“THERE ARE ONLY TWO NFL QUARTERBACKS WHO HAVE WON 4 SUPER BOWLS JOE MONTANA IS ONE OF THEM”

“The best player to hit the court”

Grizleybear

“The best white player to hit the court!”

“The great Jackie Robinson what else can i say.He set the stand for american to be americans no matter if your black,white,green or purple.His number 42 is retire through out baseball.He was not only a great baseball player he was a great man”

wideup

“Jackie Robinson-hands down! He was a hall of fame baseball player, won the rookie-of-the-year award despite the unbelievable pressure of being the first black player. Amazingly, though, baseball was only his fourth-best sport. He was also an All-American track star who set the long jump record at UCLA and was national champ in that event, he led the PCC in scoring for the basketball team and won an MVP, and was an all-american halfback. He was also a junior tennis star and excelled at table tennis! Come on! No contest!”

“hicham is the best.”

“the mile king and holder of solid three world records. very difficult to replace this king”

“the best swimmer of all times, all over the world
he’s the champ”

“Powerful,fast,acceleration Greatest of all time he’s a legend”

“I couldn’t say who the greatest living athlete is. But I would put for contention that the greatest athlete was a runner.

He didn’t break any speed records.

He had one race; one challenge, and he couldn’t even finish that.

He did manage to run more consecutive marathons in consecutive days than anyone else-5, 373 km in 143 days.

That is an average of 23. 3 miles per day.

On one leg.

There is in any course of human endeavor--be it art, invention or sport where some times, on a very rare occassion, one person elevates something simple, beyond its simplicity and shows us not only what one person can achieve if motivated, but rather what all of us might if we harnassed the barest echo of that resolve.

I have noticed that frequently, your country loves the winner to the exclusion of all else.

Terry Fox could not complete his race. He was completing not just agaisnt the miles, but against his own body turned traitor. In the end that cancer stopped him from finishing his race.

It weakened him to the point that he couldn’t breathe.

It eventually killed him.

But it did not beat him.

And so I am always mystified why when the call goes out for the greatest athlete his name never seems to make the list.”

“he rocks baseball”

“He has changed baseball all the way. Yankees suck”

“he beat the nazis in Munich 8 yrs befor D-Day”

“most amazing ahtlete eva”

“Most cricket world records for batting”

“all around hero”

“Willie should be in the top ten. He could control a baseball game all by himself. Hit, field, throw, run, hit for power. A 5 tool player with no comparison.”

“Why in the heck are you guys not voting for this guy I mean come on he is greater than most of the athletes you guys all picked I mean he is the greatest soccer player ever! and he is way to low in votes you guys are full of it man! come on you don’t get the word greatest soccer player ever! He is as good as Jordan even better!”

“QUITE POSSIBLY THE MOST DYNAMIC ATHLETE AND CERTAINLY THE MOST DYNAMIC BOXER OF ALL TIME. HE MADE BOXING INTERESTING WHEN IT REALLY WASN’T. IT’S A TRAGEDY THAT HIS LIFE AND CAREER SPIRRALLED SO BADLY OUT OF CONTROL.”

“the only man ever to be drafted by 3 of the 4 big sports(mlb, nba, nfl)”

“Agreed. "Athlete" of the century. I’ll second that and toss in the name Dave Winfield as a close second. Don’t laugh or immediately think I’m nuts...look it up and you’ll see the resemblances I’m referring to. Dave just "chose" not to try to do all he was capable of and focused on baseball, which was arguably the weakest of his talents but the highest paying opportunity at the time. Tough choice given he was drafted into the NBA, NFL, MLB, the insanley popular at the time but now defunct ABA (the American Basketball Association), and also now defunct WHA (World Hockey Association), a narrow loser in terms of existence to the NHL (mostly poor marketing in a not so popular sport outside of the northern states for a black guy). Upon his graduation and shortly after the preeminent outfielder PITCHED the Minnesota Golden Gophers to a national collegiate world series championship and of course was named the MVP of the series as said pitcher he chose MLB. By the way, he was also the first athlete that was offered the opportunity to make the jump straight from high school to the NBA (ala Kobe, Lebron etc etc 30 years later). Much like our man Jim Thorpe (which although it seems I’m really pushing Winfield here as a god of sport) I still find as the athlete of the century, Winfield was drafted in more than one of these sports and offered large sums of money wihtout ever having played a down, play, or game at the collegiate level. And of course, he was the first man to go straight to the bigs, bypassing a single farm team game when he did finally choose baseball and the Padre’s chose him. I’ll stop here, but I could go on....check the guy out on google or wikapedia and then even ATTEMPT to put anyone in the same category as Jim Thorpe, him, or Jim Brown as a distant third when it comes to the uttely ridiculous but ultimately necessary conversations about who is the greatest athlete ever. Or take the easy way out and pick Secretariat and you’ll get no arguments from the other horses :)”

“Please see my previous comment added to the Jim Thorpe statements at I think #7. We’re not always focused on ACTUAL accomplishment here and the list isn’t titled "most popular athlete of all time". Barry Sanders chose to move back to Wichita and live the "good" life rather than continue losing, however that doesn’t erase his athleticism up to that point and definitely can’t abolish from the discussion the degree to which Emmit Smith would be an afterthought in the career rushing yards record discussion had the seeminly always healthy Sanders played another five to seven years if he so chose to. When Michael Jordan took some time off, that didn’t make him any less of an athlete. Just because Winfield "chose" baseball didn’t make him any less of a superb basketball or football talent and didn’t subtract that atheleticism in those areas from his being. If you need to enlighten yourself further in these reflections just keep in mind that Babe Ruth was likely the best pithcher in all of baseball prior to being ordered to hit only after his sixth or seventh season. Cheers!”

“he should be number one...no one else could even come close to his feats...he is a living siper hero”

“First man to climb all 14 of the world’s 8,000+ meter peaks. First man to both summit Everest solo, and without oxygen. Third person to climb the highest mountain on each of the seven continents.
