What sport has the better athletes?

[daneblazer]

nascar drivers

[Rod1010]

I'd go with Tennis ..

[flyingillini]

I would say Soccer out of those two sports. Probably all around would have to be a Gymnast or a Marathon runner.

[BettingGeek]

ballers ...

Look at Lebron James ...

[pavyracer]

Steely Dan

[rsnnh12]

Just out of those 2? Soccer


Out of any sport? Decathletes

[The Bet Master]

Depends. If everyone was like Monfils in tennis it'd be no question but then you have the slackers.

[Rod1010]

Soccer and tennis players are the best athletes in the world ..

Unbelievable cardio

Bryan Clay would dominate any soccer or tennis player if you're just testing athleticism. Decathlon tests every aspect of athletes

Rod "Sexy Eyes" Flanigan

I'd say rugby... the game is like soccer in that it doesn't have much stoppage at all but there is also contact, kicking, handling, jumping, running, etc.

[Wrigley]

Swimmers are the best in shape athletes

[Optional]

No contest. Ironmen.

[8ArIvd5]

wrestling, boxing/kickboxing, mma, etc.

[Glitch]

going to second MMA and throw in gymnasts. most tennis players and soccer players cant do what they do.

If you don't say rugby, you've never played it.

We've all played baseball and basketball and they don't come close... Football is high impact and fast but lots of resting. Hockey is very fast but shifts are quick. Soccer is very tiresome but unless you're a midfielder, you get to rest a bit when the balls not in your end. Combat sports are grueling because most people can't deal with the adrenaline properly. Swimming is definitely at the top but I don't expect a swimmer to be good at anything else. Runners/decathletes/etc. all have stamina and athleticism but doubt they could take any contact.

Rugby basically never stops but it's not like soccer because everyone is in the play at all times and always active. The game is very physical and there's no protective equipment so toughness and technique are paramount. You have to have soft hands because dropping the ball is a penalty. You have to be good with your feet because punting happens quite frequently and you can also score points by drop kicking it through the uprights. Rugby players are huge but also have unreal cardio, excellent skills, and crazy heart.

[I/O]

wrestling, boxing/kickboxing, mma, etc.

it's not even close

[Saunders FTW]

Wrestling? lol.... NFL by far

[ttwarrior1]

soccer, lol lol lol lol lol

not even close, not soccer, lol

[Grits n' Gravy]

If tt's lard ass can be a self proclaimed tennis pro then of the 2 choices you gave the correct answer would be soccer.

In general though if it is a sport that is predominantly filled with non-blacks then it isn't a true indicator of best athlete. Blacks are superior in sports involving sheer athleticism.

put them in a grappling match against each other and you will find out what kind of cardio they truly have.

[crazyparlayking]

MMA fighters are the best conditioned athletes. They have to train all disciplines, wrestling, jui jitsu and standup. Overall athlete I would have to go with gymnasts.

[Muscles]

Some of the best athletes are football players...much more athletic than a soccer player. All a soccer player needs is to be able to run run run. If running judges who is the most athletic then 99% of the best athletes will be Kenyan.

[I/O]

no "team" sports should even be in the discussion

solo

Very debatable for MMA, maybe they SHOULD be well conditioned and there sport relies on it, but 80% of them get tired way to quickly for anything thats above normal from an average athlete.

[topgame85]

Crew

[k13]

Track & Field Decathletes

Everything else should not be mentioned.

[bureK]

Or look at LeBron


Even dancers and ice-skaters.. Not so many muscles and weigh but they sure are very endurant.

[tukkk]

is OP referring to physical development or the level of competition?

[slapshot]

soccer or basketball
they are strong have great stamina, they are fast + they have be able to use their brain to read the game and control the ball.

[patswin]

i'd say tennis
