You kinda need the same for football too... Suddenly not everyone can play it anywhere...For soccer, assuming you're going to enforce your own rules, all you need is a ball, goal boundries (which can be two rocks) and people to play. Football, you have gear/equipment so you don't die and field goal posts which are much harder to simulate than a soccer goal. The bottom line is cost. Soccer costs nothing beyond the ball.horgen123
Can we all agree..

[QUOTE="Parandrus"]lol at including strongman and not American football.rawsavon...and a strongman that got dq'ed for roids Oh please.. Don't bother. EVERY STRONGMAN and EVERY POWERLIFTER and EVERY BODYBUILDER takes steroids. The only difference is, Mariusz took one pill too much, enough to get caught on the test. Doesn't change the fact that Mariusz Pudzianowski holds a dozen world records in strength and won the Met-rx World's Strongest Man competetion five times, while having served time in jail, having a damaged calf, and retiring and a very early age. Pudzian could've easily won 7 times, no idea why he quit something he was #1 at, to something he is a "regular professional" at. He also has the highest performance metric of any Strongman, only Savickas Zydrunas comes close, and he's "only" won WSM twice. Jon Pall Sigmarsson and Magnus Ver Magnusson are the only ones that come close to Pudzians WSM titles (with 4 each, compared to his 5) but have no where near the amount of records, performance metric etc...
Oh and did I forget to tell you Pudzian did all that while still having a sixpack and looking ripped?
All of the aforementioned strongmen are fat and look horrible, but are some of the strongest men in the world... Just not quite as strong as the guy above ;)

Pff, he probably doesn't even know what roids are. :P...and a strongman that got dq'ed for roids Oh please.. Don't bother. EVERY STRONGMAN and EVERY POWERLIFTER and EVERY BODYBUILDER takes steroids.

Okay not EVERY BODYBUILDER/POWERLIFTER/STRONGMAN takes roids. Jesus that assumption pisses me off.
Boxing = Mike TysonAh, what? Mike Tyson. He doesn't even deserve to be included on top ten list. Sure, he was good, had a heavy and precise punch but he fought mostly bums and washed up boxers. He lost when it counted, to Lewis and Holyfield. His trainer dying had a lot to do with it, things went downhill from there. I think that people say he's the greatest because of aggresive fighting **** he's one of the recent good boxers and one of the most memorable. But that doesn't make him the greatest, not by a long shot.Mozelleple112
Ali on the other hand, he fought in the golden era of boxing. Foreman, Frazier, Shavers, Norton, Cooper... These were all great boxers defeated by Ali (some more than once). He also never lost by KO and has won the heavyweight title three times, and that was a lot harder back then so Holyfield's four aren't exactly a match. He took part in several historic bouts, like The Thrilla in Manilla, The Fight of the Century and The Rumble in the Jungle.
If there was to be a discussion about who's the greatest boxer of all times, it should be about Ali, Sugar Ray and Louis. Tyson doesn't belong here.
