Picked MMA because there was no wrestling choice.
Wrestlers and Gymnasts are the best athletes over all. LO-phucken-L at the idea that american football produces the best overall athletes. They are literally just big explosive steroid cows.

Definitely rugby. Lol at American potatoes that vote for hand egg. Rugby requires insane strength, agility and stamina. Not just run for 5 seconds lol. That's why you get this in American football
'superior athlete'
and this physique on all rugby players.

Most of you are retards
Each sport produces different types of athletes and bodies that can do different things
A cyclist can cycle extreme distances however couldn't run even half of that and the same goes for marathon runners
And you also need an exact criteria for "overall athlete" before you make this stupid thread

The fact that linesmen are fat doesn't mean they're bad athletes.
BRB Clowney ... 120kg, 4.53 40 yards, 21 reps on bench, a ridiculous 38 inch vertical. To put that into perspective cristiano ronaldo has a 30 inch vert. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/03/cris...do-jump-heightThe other half of Sydney crew* (Not Chestbrah's half)
Its not a gambling addiction if you win crew*
Addicted to gambling crew*
Piss right in the middle of the bowl to make as much noise as possible and assert my dominance crew*

1. power
2. absolute strength
3. relative strength
4. developed oxidative system, lactic, and ATP-CP
5. coordination
6. agility
7. mobility
8. speed
9. mental strength
decathlon has the greatest combined total of all these demands. proper sprinting mechanics requires more coordination than most sports, and pole vault, high jump, long jump, hurdles, javelin, discus, shotput all have great technique requirements. these events are all power events so the greater the power, the better decathlon score you will get. running a decent time in the 1500m and 400m requires developed oxidative and anaerobic systems, and 100m is a good test for speed. all of the events require much greater mobility than is required in sports like football - just think about hurdling over 42" hurdles with very good form, and then the javelin requires a great amount of shoulder external rotation.

I'm a boxer and voted MMA.
Depends on what you mean athlete, if you mean athleticism as in how explosive, fast twitch fibre muscles someone has, then maybe its American Football. However if you mean overall athlete, that means qualities required to be successful in all sports, it's probably MMA, its the closest thing to crossfits 10 points of fitness. Endurance, strength, power, stamina, mental strength, speed, balance, agility, explosiveness, reflexes, flexibility, skill are all required. It doesn't lack in any department for what is required in the sport.
