Worlds greatest athlete?

[Torn]

Just curious, who did you think was the worlds greatest athlete? I think it was Muhammad Ali, he could just stare at you and you would be right psyched out 8)

Michael Phelps.....definitly, hes also very sportsman like

Really depends on the sport. I noticed you two mentioned Lance Armstrong and Muhammed Ali...both boxing and cycling require strength in completely different areas of the body. Cardio vascular vs brute strenth...upper body vs lower body. Each sport is uniquely different that way. So it really depends on that.

But for me, I'd have to say Cal Ripkin. Most consecutive (baseball) games ever played without break, injury, or time off....talk about endurance.
