Im not sure if Armstrong can be, due to his drug cheating but I dont think anyone can argue with this list. If you can, please do.
 
Tennis is Djokovic, he has pulverised Federer in numerous finals.

Later in his career(Fed).

If you could produce the perfect tennis player via a computer, Roger would be that man. Sublime at his best.

Federer? Federer was a choker who beat weak opponents. Djokovic and Nadal exposed the fraud too many times to count. He is the Tendulkar of tennis, pretty game but big choker and weak opponents basher.
 
Michael Jordan had his records obliterated by LeBron James. Lots of nostalgia here among posters. This is not 2005 anymore.
 
Why in your opinion was Jahangir the better of the two Khans?
He had chronic issues with his legs or to rightly put from his birth but he still managed to dominate undisputedly for more than a decade in British open and World championship...Janshir was a rising star who catch him in his twilight.

Numbers are numbers bro. Jansher was GOAT in terms of numbers

Numbers are only part of determining the GOAT. The all round skills is a major part. Nobody can play a ball like Jordan.

But its all about opinions.
 
Pele , Jordan , Phelps, Bolt, Ali.

Fair to say if black people take any physical sport seriously they hardly ll have any competition.

Jahangir and Dhyan Chand notable mentions.

Different times, Also Jordan has 3 consecutive twice once after leaving basketball.

Jordan is unequal in sports ,also basketball rules changed during Lebron, used to be much more physical back then, scoring was way tougher.

It’s not recency bias but how tough it was, similar to how 90s pitches were tougher for batsmen.
 
Ali had a much bigger impact away from sports as well as long legacy in boxing, he sits alone at the top.
 
My opinion

Football : Messi
Basketball : MJ
Snooker : Stephen Hendry
Boxing : Iron Mike
Tennis: I preferred Nadal to Fed
 
Ali had a much bigger impact away from sports as well as long legacy in boxing, he sits alone at the top.

Agree Ali is the GOAT of all sports. Even if you ignore his outside legacy, in the ring, he was perfect in every facet.
 
Combat sports athletes cannot be compared to non combat sports athletes personality wise. Of course an Ali, a Tyson, a McGregor would always look more attractive personality wise.

You can’t compare that to Tiger Woods or Bradman
 
In terms of achievements. No one comes remotely close to Michael Phelps winning 23 Golds, 3 Silvers & 2 Bronze medals across 4 Olympics
