Who do you think was the greatest sports person of the last century ???

Was it Bruce Lee and his form of martial arts ?

Mohammed Ali and his form of boxing ?

Micheal Jordan(Abu Hamza) and his skills in Basketball ?

Joe Weider and his muscle building techinques ?

Linford Christie and his running ?

Pele and his football skills ?

Jane and Torvill Dean, ice skating (for the sisters) ?
etc etc .

Bro mujahid and his boxing ?

Sis Ummwafi for penjat silat ?

Bro Bhaloo for his weightlifting ?

Princess for her running time ?

Who do you think contributed most to the sport or brought many to the new form of sport. Sisters you can add your sports person as well.

You can can even have the Madinat sports person from the board...?

salaams

Pele, without doubt.

He made football the beautiful game with his sublime, magical touches.

After that, Bruce Lee. His martial arts was mysterious and mind-boggling at times. Even to this day man hasn't been able to bring together the mind, body and soul the way Bruce Lee did.

It is so hard to compare across sports!  I mean, how do you compare boxing with swimming?  There are a couple more names I would like to add, however.  Jesse Owens -- for running as an African-American from a very disadvantaged background (son of a sharecropper, grandson of a slave) in Nazi Germany and kicking some major bootie!  And Lance Armstrong -- for beating the worst odds to come back from testicular cancer (which had spread all the way to his brain) and win the Tour de France three times.  He is still racing, though, so he would he count for the last century?

Peace be on those who follow the GUIDANCE

If only BroHanif had asked us who the best sportsman of the sixth century was, I would have replied:

Muhammad ibn Abullah  [saw] who, as an excellent wrestler, beat Rukana, the master of wrestling during his time.

The fascinating consequence of this dual was that Rukana, after being outclassed, embraced Islam

babe didrikson zaharias.

went and checked on this, in case i might be mistaken.
nope - she "holds more records in more sports than any
other person in history".

Actually admin (not me) placed your post by mistake in the "NBA Playoffs" thread originally.  I saw it some time yesterday and realized it was misplaced, and so I placed it here.

Anyway, it's where it belongs now :)

Wassalam.
