WildStar Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'm not an American Football expert but I just watched an OJ Simpson doc and he looked special. I also watched Spurs V Arsenal 1991 semi final and Gazza was amazing. He wasn't the greatest but he could have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh he's special alright Nah he was good. I'd put him behind the other running backs mentioned in this thread, Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Bo Jackson, Herschel Walker, but he was really good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bono Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Anyone who doesn't have Wayne Gretzky in their top 5 is insane. The guy statistically dominated hockey more than any other athlete dominated any other sport ever. He is so beyond any other player stats wise it's mind blowing. He has more assists than any other player has total points. The guy scored 92 fucking goals in one season had 214 points in one season. His stats are unreal.

Bono Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Also people have to seriously consider Tom Brady in the discussion of greatest athlete of all time. Look at all the other greats at his age. They were all done or way past their prime. That includes Ali, Jordan, Tiger, Gretzky, whoever you name it. Tom Brady is 39 and is arguably as good now as he's ever been with no signs of slowing down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant really apply the same criteria with boxers as with other sports though because of the nature of the damage inflicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His points per game match up and he could hit. Pound for Pound Tie Domi was the best fist n knuckles. He was 5'11 and most his opponents were 6'6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you ever see the documentary about the enforcers in hockey? I can't remember the name of it now, but it was good. Sad and disheartening, but good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildStar Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Messi is the best Football player I've seen live. Saw him in Barcelona for 20 mins (he was freeking dropped) Don't forget Stoke can claim Slash but they can also claim the greatest Darts player off all time... Phil 'The Power' Taylor.

I've seen Domi What It Takes. The other doc I saw was 'Tough Guys'... Mainly featured lower league enforcers. I think WCL or ECHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the best footballer I've ever seen play is Cantona, or Bergkamp. I can never decide between the two. Both we're having a blinder of a game when I saw them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
