I did at Yankee Stadium when he played against the Giants...I also saw play Lacrosse at Syracuse against Johns Hopkins and Dartmouth... I'm old. But, not that old. Brown never won Olympic gold in both the pentathlon & decathlon. Nor did Brown play minor league baseball and basketball. Both are pro football hall of famers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiteshoes Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Muhammad Ali. Once lost a 15 round split decision fighting with a broken jaw for fourteen rounds. If you don't think boxing is tough, pound a body bag for three minutes. Your arms will fell like they are ready to fall off and then think about someone punching your during that three minute workout. My pick for second on this list is Secretariat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that you considered a horse. Most people dont consider a horse an athlete(not me as I love horse racing) but his win at belmont at 27 1/2 lengths is incredible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
