His injury was a result of him being "too muscular" (I shit you not) and he never took performance enhancing drugs, so what's your game here?
>>
>>66435067
so?
That just means there's a point where too much muscle becomes a hindrance for athletic ability

If he can't perform at the highest level consistently then I'm sorry but he's not the greatest athlete
>>
It's obviously Tim Duncan from the Spurs... 5 rings Duncan>Kobe

It took an "impossible" injury to sideline Bo Jackson, and he STILL came back to play in MLB again with an artificial hip.

Pretty sure that makes him the GOAT, amigo.
>>
every light middleweight/middleweight/super-middleweight from the 80's and 90's tbq
>>
Best at playing multiple sports well? Bo.


Best pure athlete? Prime Mike Tyson

>>66435298
It took a sports injury to permanently sideline the "greatest athlete" from the only sport he was actually great at
but whatever you say man
>>
>>66435403
If the training staff and team doctors weren't fucking retarded it wouldn't have been nearly as bad as it ended up being.

When your first response is "No that can't happen its impossible" and it turns out thats exactly what happened, you need to find a new field to work in.

and it's not even close

Was he even good at football or baseball?
>>
>>66435388
Tyson had nil stamina
>>
>>66435764
He made the pro bowl and all star game in the same year
>>
>>66436380

What? He never lost a decision in his life.
>>
>>66435764
He was a pretty good baseball player. But he had the ability to become one of the greatest RB of all time before the injury.

>t. Bo Cuckson's agent in his fucking 30 for 30 episode

Fuck off dude. I don't know why this meme still lasts. I remember when the Dr. J episode came out and everyone had him in their top 5 for 2 weeks and then he once again disappeared. Yet Bo Cuckson faggots still insist.
>>
>>66436447
yes but he always looked like shit and was pretty sloppy once a fight went past 6 and had to tough the rounds out
