Who is YOUR Greatest of All Time in any sport.

1. Bobby Orr Hockey.... Although the best player I've ever seen play the game was Wayne Gretzky, Orr was the one for me to watch as a kid.

2. Michael Jordan...Basketball...smooth and unstoppable, just wished he was on the Celts.

3. Tiger Woods.... don't really care about his home life...if we're talking golf...he's the one! I have seen plenty, including Jack and Arnie, and I don't think either could take him.

4. Walter Payton...RB Football....If you haven't seen him, it's tough to describe....he was just so light on his feet and fast as lightning...was a pleasure to watch.

I have more...😀
 
Mike Schmidt for Baseball
Juluis Irving for Basketball

as u can tell im a philadelphia fan!! old school!!
 
Michael Schumacher - in F-1


Garry Kimovich Kasparov - in chess game
 
Jordan (honorable mention to Oscar Robinson who is very VERY underrated)
Orr
Federer
Lou Gehrig
Jerry Rice/Lawrence Taylor (offense and defense are so different in American FB)
Messi (assuming 5 more yrs like the last 5)
Sugar Ray Robinson (not close really)
Jack Nicklaus (Tiger CAN catch him, but he needs to win a major soon)
 
I'm not much of a mainstream sports guy, but here goes.

For Muay Thai/Kickboxing/K-1 I would have to say Buakaw. Although Cro Cop is close. That high kick, oh boy!

As for MMA (although in his prime I would happily pit him against any fighter ever to have competed in any sport and put my money on him) it would have to be "The Last Emperor". Man fought like The Terminator back in Pride. I just wished I could have seen him fight live.
