The freaks of nature. LBJ, Dwight, kryptoNate...you get the idea. ‘Best at his sport’ might be more suitable… when I think of best athlete, I think of the best physical specimen.

I can tell you what makes him so special...... 1. His hand eye coordination is out of this world..... 2. How he handles pressure is amazing...... 3. Shot making is just crazy 4. Accuracy is just sick...... One argument I always here is that Tiger plays the field and Federer has to only play 7 guys. Well, it it's that easy than why is Tiger's match play not so dominating? Tiger can have a bad day at a major and still win. Rodger had one bad day and lost to Del Potro. By the way, imagine this..... Fed only got in 50% of his serves and still almost won. His forehand was suspect and he really did have a bad day and almost won. My only criticism with Federer is he shanks a lot more balls than other great players. I think this has to do with the racquet he uses being so small. Imagine this, A Kobe Bryant would be finished if he were a Tennis player. Fed has about 3 maybe more years of winning. Tennis is probably the hardest individual sport besides maybe boxing. Tiger dominates a sport that doesnt' require stamina and running and defense so it's hard to pick him as a dominating athlete when it's in a sport that's really a competition and not a sport.

'Bron would've been hitting 200 mph serves and whacking the ball with his dick. LOL @ ‘LeBron would have been weeping’

LBJ is the best physical specimen you or I will probably ever see in this lifetime. ‘Bron would’ve been hitting 200 mph serves and whacking the ball with his dick.

There's probably some guy in Vermont that has never lost a beer pong match in his life. But as this site has debated before, do you mean specifically athlete as in athletic ability, or athlete as in their respective sport. Because he's clearly not as athletic as Lebron James.
