That is yet to be seen or heard!


I have yet to sound in on this debate but will make this comment, hopefully without sounding too brash. I come from a boxing family; I have 2 uncles that are Golden Gloves National Champions, one that still holds the record for most National Golden Gloves Championships. I also boxed for a number of years and was nationally ranked and considered by some as being quite good. All of that said, wrestling due to the number of matches, the frequency of those matches, conditioning, diet, etc, involved, is a much tougher sport than boxing.

While boxing may be close it is not that close, while basketball or football may be ranked higher it is obviously voting by fans who never participated in, or are very knowledgeable about most of the sports that is doing the voting.

One last note, Lance Armstrong is the man! When you have personally seen those guys going up the side of a mountain at high rates of speed, on a bicycle after burning approximately 10,000 in a days time, in mile 112 of a multi stage race you will be impressed. To do that after going through what he has gone through is insperational. Of all of the sporting events I have ever seen the Tour Dupont was the most incredible thing to watch over a 3 or 4 day span, and I missed about 10 days or more of the event. The hardest things I have ever done, training for a triathlon one time and swimming over a mile. That was years ago and far from the present, but for the old bald headed men of America there are still memories.
