Ali was a lot of hot air. Not even the greatest ever boxer.
Armstrong is f'kin joke. Beats cancer and chooses to spend the rest of the time he has been gifted cheating at cycling.

Why is number of comebacks a good thing? Sure they take all the things you mentioned and are impressive. What makes it more impressive than simply staying at the top and not going away though?

Of all the possible criteria of what constitutes the greatest sportsperson of all time, I think that the ability to do what Turny and Tank can't, is quite far down the list.

He's the most tested athlete on the planet and has never failed a single test. Armstrong would never have won the Tour if it wasnt for cancer, he fully acknowledges that, but if you'd read his books you may have a different opinion on the man.

dont agee mate, ali was a legend and the greatest boxer ever imo to come back 3 times takes some talent and some balls! Ali certainly wasn't the best boxer ever. I'd place Julio Cesar Chavez above him for one. I think he was the 'greatest' sportsman ever in the way he transcended the sport - but there have been a lot of more talented boxers, and there have been other sportsmen who have dominated their sports far more than Ali did.
