What sport do you think it is? Do you agree with the panel of "experts"?
The Kicker are yall on drugs
Mayyybbbeeee
Robert King mad props for responding. But seriously whoever said boxing is like bar fighting hasn't fought lol
Haha, yeah we are definitely not experts.
How about rugby my sport
Lmao they’ve never played sports.
fr 💀
Yesss haha I feel that ice hockey is the most athletic
@@Caylee_Copeland exactly, they had no clue what they where talking about
Their lack of knowledge of wrestling bothers me.
Alec Nardone ikr i wished i wrestled someon with a 5 endurance that would be cake
THANK U😂Jesus Christ 5 endurance? Clearly none of them have stepped on a mat, going against 2-3 time state champions. That takes nerve, and the 5 endurance is just BS
yeah i don’t know much about wrestling but i do all star cheer and no one knows anything about it so i completely understand
and boxing like they said boxing wasn't an intellectual sport and martial arts? like judo taekwondo karate the little people know about combat sports
I my self am a folk wrestler and it’s funny to me that they would say that. But for me wrestling would be #2 behind gymnastics because of still rings and parallel bars.
The fact gymnastics came in 7th says it all tbh. These guys are so uneducated on most of the sports on that list.
'Hockey doesn't require nerves'
When you're travelling at a speed of 20 mph with 200+lbs players ready to take your heads of whle you're standing on 1/8 inch of blades requires nerves. ESPN actually ranked hockey as the toughest team sport
Quick list of some issues:
-Boxing is often referred to as chess with hands. Requires a lot of intelligent play. Not to mention the immense footwork involved.
-if you consider hockey leisurely, you're fooling yourself.
-genetic prowess does not equal successful athlete
-baseball does require analytical aptitude, but to give that a 10 and not the other sports is silly
-soccer players strength train. They are strong.
-wrestling doesn't just require hand eye coordination, it requires overall proprioception
-wrestling requires quick decision making followed by quick movement to get into advantageous positions. Speed and analytical aptitude.
-being able to get into a "zen" state during a fight should be a sign of large amounts of nerve, not a low amount of nerve
nerve
-I agree that there isnt much analytical aptitude to gymnastics, but it requires maaaaaasive amounts of strength, agility, speed, and overall proprioception. Way underrated.
Can we have a follow up video where you all try high end training for all of these sports?
The guy on the left is about to get punched.
You guys should all share your sports history. I bet Zack was really good at World of WarCraft
Pound for pound strength: gymnastics, wrestling
Athletic: soccer, tennis, martial arts. These guys have insane endurance and are classically considered athletic.
Overall strength: football
Basketball takes a lot of endurance but soccer beats that. So it’s just average overall.
Baseball is the least athletic. Good hand eye coordination but in terms of physical strength and endurance it lacks.
These are my opinion. I’ve played tennis, soccer, baseball, and gymnastics so I like to think I have a pretty good idea.
Overall athletic: soccer? What? And tennis?
kind of funny to hear you guys analyze sports you [obviously] never played at a higher competition level, still fun to watch!
My top 10 on this specific criteria has got be:
1:Mixed Martial Arts
2:Boxing/Kickboxing
3:Rugby
4:Hockey (Ice and Field)
5:American Football
6:Soccer and Handball
7:Basketball
8:Tennis, Badminton and Squash
9:Baseball and Cricket
10:Swimming, Running and Cycling
American football over Soccer???
High key their list don’t mean anything if boxing wasn’t hard to do anyone could be a boxer
sleepy bear it's not that it's easy it's that it's athletes aren't athletic and some of them are but most aren't
What boxing are you talking about?
@@zanebrown1003 ur actually high
@@zanebrown1003 if u tell me the bronze bomber is less athletic than Labron ur actually insane
Dylan dove Lebron is old and has a 44 inch vertical
Wilder has such small legs that his footwork suffers from it
You guys don’t know anything about boxing
Completely agree
exactly they’ve obviously never been in the ring
Most people don't know shit about boxing
The skinny Zack guy is cope incarnate
Literally feel like they never played or even know what sports are.. Fire them and give me the job guaranteed they are the worst candidates
I’m a tennis player and I still think that gymnastics should be number 1. I mean you gotta be kidding. Those people are superhuman beings. They are like real life superheroes.
1. Martial arts
2.Wrestling
3. Soccer (It's called football!)
4.Boxing
Calling ice hockey leisurely wtf

Eryk Jones basketball higher than baseball
Clearly you’ve never wrestled😂
Looking at individual athletes, I think that cornerbacks are really a step above the rest. They have to keep up with some of the fastest people on the planet while reading everything else that's happening in the play. On top of that, they have to take and make big hits like every other football player.
Baharu Harris You make a excellent point here
Baharu Harris I always thought corner was the most difficult position. You are damn near on your own out there. I played wide and corner and had more anxiety playing corner.
Mma athletes >
Prime nadal would work Westbrook as an athlete. Nadal could’ve played any sport he wanted to, he is insanely athletic
sun1489 hell no can natal jump higher and shoot from further hell no
A fucking tennis player?!?
sun1489 just delete this comment
Football does need agility
T C only about 10 percent of the positions and players on the field need it the rest are just fat men or really big freaks of nature
Also football just doesn’t require as much athleticism as many sports and certainly requires very little skill compared to other sports
A are you dumb? 10 percents of football players are big “freaks of nature”
Even still, these big are still extremely athletic especially for someone at their size.
ruclips.net/video/DFcWMC9vkZg/видео.html
A lot of Football players have been recorded moving at top speeds faster than usain bolt while still being able to bench near or over 400 pounds. Don’t forget that they also have a ton of endurance. Normally people at that strength have no speed or stamina but they still manage to stay better than well rounded.
And they also on average have a higher vertical jump then basketball players. The nfl combine results for vertical height is way higher than the nba combines results. The record was even set by an nfl football player.
And a lot of these guys are 200lb+ individuals. Physically football players are the most impressive.
@@godofgamers3884 ... Yep ... Yep ... And Yep
@@godofgamers3884 spitting facts. Football players are one of, if not the most athletic athletes. They have to be strong and built enough to be durable against countless hits, extremely fast and explosive while maintaining their size, agile to get around the field, and endurant over the course of a brutal game.
Martial arts and boxing are clearly number one.
That is a little generous, try to wrestle a 5 time state champ as a first year wrestler, shit ain't easy.
Nah its football
@@kevinfink1213 Well no shit go one on one whith lebron's son shit ain't easy
@@kingrabb8001 The hell do you mean
@@damjanmitrovic5887 football u don’t get punched in the face for 12 rounds lol
As someone who as played many sports. Track, basketball, powerlifting, wrestling, tennis, swim, football, and soccer. Wrestling is by far the hardest in terms of physicality. However, when it comes to athletes. Basketball has some crazy fuckers.
why is cricket so underrated
Yeah Americans just want to play easy games like baseball without knowing the passion in other games.
Wow! These people haven’t even the slightest clue. Amazing.
The guy on the left clearly has never been punched in the face. Typical casual who thinks it's easy until they step in the ring.
but as a taekwondo and muay thai guy i do appreciate the high score XD of and i promise you our nerve is fine those shots still hurt a ton XD
I gotta say football just because they have to have the best combination of power and speed
You have to be extremely agile as a linemen. Hand eye coordination, no. But when you have defensive ends who are attempting to charge around you, and you have to pretty much back peddle to block them, neutralize their moves, it requires a ton of agility (relative to the size of the players of course)
Alec Nardone Their biggest insult to linemen was insulting their intelligence. I’m of the personal belief that the QB and the O line are the most intelligent players on the field. The amount of defensive reads, preparation, and adaptation to play styles to take into consideration is tremendous
Matthew Chirichella how bout linebacker?
No sense trying to even serious react to what there saying, because they clearly don’t know what there talking about
Football players hands down best athletes in the world
CeezyMane agreed
I honestly enjoyed this. So genuine. No schtick
The guy with the beat up lip got beat up by a boxer lol
Wrestling is a martial art...
Yeah but it the most unique martial art and requires the most different training and physical abilities.
Australian Rules Football beats all of these. It is a 360 degree game that requires all of the explosive sprinting/jumping of Basketball, the tackling/wrestling of rugby/nfl... all amidst running a half marathon every game.
Not true. You've clearly never wresled
She went full Owen Wilson with that "wow"
4 people who look like they couldn't even run after the ice cream man rating athletics.
In my opinion basketball requires the most amount of analytical aptitude, not only because teams run so many different plays, but you have to be able to make multiple reads on the fly, constantly communicate to your teammates, while being yelled at by crowds in close proximity. Basketball IQ is one of the most important aspects in the game.
Adam B. That’s for most sports mate
Basketball is definitely the most athletes there are more of them and they are all very athletic
Thunder Nation definitely agree, they may not have the strongest athletes over all (although they do have some really strong athletes), but the speed, agility, vertical ability and hand eye coordination needs of basketball are some of the toughest in all of sports
But I feel most basketball players can be compared to most wide receivers in the nfl due to the similarities both basketball players and wide receivers require when playing but I feel wide receivers will most likely have an edge in strength and maybe durability
@@sahnlyphanchan4894 durability for a football player? factor in the high risk of their brains are getting turned into swiss cheese
Sahnly Phan chan tyreek hill would run circles around most basketball players
This is trash. Boxing isn't a bar fight and didn't mention rugby.. Real athletes here
Eye feet coordination 💯
I think we all took a side after the first sport 😂
Also, as a tennis player, gymnastics is definitely way harder than tennis 😂😂😂
It has to be football ( american). American football players are very fast, they jump higher then any other sport, they have excelent agility, they are strong as fuck, thats why all of them are pumped and have above 200lbs, a lot of them also know tricks from gymnastics ( for example the roundoff backflip, back handspring...). If i forgot something add it in reply, also sorry for my bad english misspelling.
Gymnast are your most physically impressive athletes. Best over all covering all categories is baseball except in endurance. Unless your a pitcher, DH, or first baseman you have to be very athletic. And even thought those positions often don’t have the best “athletes” they master a specific area of the sport (hitting or pitching).
Basketball by far has the best athletes. Only so few can make it so its the best of the best. Tall, fast, strong athletes unlike most sports
The fact that you mentioned an attribute that cannot be worked on instantly disqualifies basketball. You don't know if they have the best athletes because you can't compare them to people who aren't tall like other sports can.
@@kevinromero8813 exactly basketball is a skill sport really most aren't that athletic they can be tall or can move a little quick
We wrestlers wear headgear for a reason, to not get cauliflower, etc.
3 for agility and 3 for analytic judgement? You've never seen lightweight boxing, have you?
They have never seen Muhammad Ali just dancing away Dokes's punches. THAT shoes where the intellect in boxing is at
The fact that boxing and wrestling has generally low scores for "nerve" is hilarious. I hate that you're making me drop comments before finishing, but there's so much wrong here.
I agree with the top spot on this list, other ones are questionable
Damn you know what's crazy?. . . Even though there was no scientific, empirical process to how they made their conclusions on a second look when you you think about it their list actually makes sense.
I play hockey and no u can’t just go in any time u know when to
Badminton: Rudi Hartono from Indonesia.
i would say martial arts specialy wrestling boxing and mma
How is track not on this list😂😂😂
Wrestling and BASEBALL
Football wins easily to me, boxing is up there and of course basketball, but when it comes to football, I don’t think most people understand how fast 300 pound lineman are moving off the line of scrimmage. And a lot of those lineman can dunk a basketball, there pure athletes and explosive.
How can martial arts be over Boxing?
For someone who used to wrestle you need a lot of endurance , strength and skilled it’s not like wrestling your little Brother in your living room
No ice hockey has more than 30 seconds in a shift
bruh no knowledge on how much strength soccer players need. Different positions have different requirements. Coming from a boxer who played basketball and soccer, soccer is much more physical and their alot of strong players out their. Try playing it one day and you will see how much more strenght it requires than basketball
Divyesh Lal thank you
Should get actual athletes do the ranking since most athletes respect other sports and understand what it take to be good at whatever the other sport is, and btw wrestling, boxing and martial arts should be the in same category and number 1 on the list in my opinion.
Gymnastic must get a 10 in strength. Just enter ring gymnast in the youtube search a look what they are doing and how their body's look like.
wheres lacrosse
Clearly none of these guys have actually watched Hockey.
Endurance = 5. Pretty much the shortest shifts of all sports.
Strength = 7. Hockey is the only 'non-fighting' sport that allows fighting. Just saying.
Speed = 9. Skating is faster than running therefore it should be one of the highest if not the highest.
Agility = 5. Its much harder to be agile with skates on ice than it is sneakers on court therefore I feel like the sport 'standard' is lowered.
Nerve = 10. 3:58 "seem so leisurely''...right... What other sport do athletes block 100 KM/H shots so 'leisurely' lol...
Hand Eye = 10. With how fast Hockey is its crazy how quick some players reaction times are and how small the puck is.
Aptitude = 9. So many set plays per faceoff, cycling in each zone and back-checking. It should be the next highest after Football. Ex: Tyler Toffoli scoring in under a second off the faceoff.
Bonus category - Toughness = 11. Hitting, high-sticking, slashing, fighting, blocking shots, falling on Ice and 82 games/season(not counting Playoffs). Definitely need to be tough to play Hockey.
Yeah the only thing is though the speed is over valued because they have the advantage of skates, yo can go faster skating than running if you are a good skater. Just like you wouldn’t rank cycling over running for speed because even though cyclists go faster they have a device that allows them to go faster.
They give score on how much they like the sport🧐
Boxing for sure. Only people saying CrossFit is crossfitters and Reebok
You should get water polo and rugby... you would be surprised
Having done Martial Arts, Boxing, Dancing, Soccer, Wrestling, gymnastics I would say Martial Arts is the lowest, Boxing and Wrestling should be way higher. I'd say Boxing is probably the hardest out of all. In boxing if you take a break you will get knocked the ff out. Wrestling is very similar, you need endurance strength more than other sports.
Boxing takes a decent amount of analytical aptitude to not get your shit pushed in but hey that’s jus me
Damn where is track and field??? 😂😂
Sprinters are the fittest :)
@@hemantks4353 yes indeed we are 🙂!
Try track and field
Your forehead is shiny
Your forehead is shiny
Your forehead is shiny
The fact the didn't even consider endurance sports which are the hardest by far...
How is the woman the only person who got it right on boxing?
Out of all the sports they did
Soccer: Best Endurance
Football: Best Speed
Basketball: Best Agility
Martial Arts: Best Analytics
Wrestling: Best Strength
Tennis: Best Coordination
really not hockey for best speed
Oliver Arnone take their skates and cab they beat Saquan Barkley in a sprint
Jaden Blake best coordination would go to gymnastics, obviously. I’m guessing you’ve never done a standing back on a beam :)
Grace Enstine Ya I haven’t 😅
Oliver Arnone YOUR ON SKATES
I feel that ice hockey is the best and most athletic
Which one of those sports have you guys played? I disagree with a lot of your arguments
Motocross isn't on people's radars because most people don't do it, but the fitness level of the pro racers is ridiculous. I've done martial arts, ran track, and played several ball sports, but none of them demand as much of my body as putting in hard laps of motocross
Literally the women knows the most about sports here
Rugby?
have these guys played sports
Which Sport Has The Best Ref? - Aussie rules - Seriously, watch them throw the ball back in like a bride throwing the bouquet
Faxxxxx
Gotta be waterpolo
Put some effert into scoring and makeing the catigories next time
good
Nice
10. Martial Arts
9. Wrestling
8. Boxing
7. Tennis
6. Ice Hockey
5. Football
4. Soccer
3. Baseball
2. Gymnastics
1. Basketball
Tastyquicksand Martial arts at the end? Lol
as an athlete whos competed in almost all of these, this bothers me 1. wrestleing 2. basketball 3. football 4. gymnastics 5. boxing
Cole Monette this list is pretty close to perfect.just switch football to 2
What about BMX racing
Gymnast the best athletes. Take all the athletes on that list and see who performs the best at each other's sports.
Basketball or football requires the most athleticism. No other sports require more explosiveness/speed/vertical leaps. Rolando has a 76 cm vertical which is like below average in NBA compared to people like Jordan who had a 117 cm vertical. But these people have like no knowledge.
Race drivers are the most athletic
NASCAR,F1,IndyCar some people who are dumb and ignorant will argue with me on this but that is only because they know nothing about the sport of racing.
drivers have to train incredibly hard to put their bodies through extremely hot temperatures upto 140 degrees inside their cars g forces and the strength it takes to control a heavy race car at 200 miles per hour plus the mental toll it takes on a driver
you guys arnt really into combat sports are you XD
gymnastics
Football
How’s endurance not a 10 for soccer not like all these other players that get 1000 stops. Game between time outs, commercials breaks , you have one break and you have to run for over 90 min?! Hand eye cordination should not have been a category if they are gonna be sticklers to give soccer not shot no point in doing this if we give 0 in a category for a smart ass
I thought football would be higher
Have you ever watched a single sport ever?
as a football fan, baseball should be 1st by a mile
Max S Sports analysis THANK YOU
Derek Farrell if they haven’t played baseball they wouldn’t be able to drive the ball. Hitting a 90 mph ball is the hardest thing to do in sports if you’ve never done it. You could argue the same thing for hockey. I’m just saying no hockey player would hit a homerun without playing the sport for a while.
Derek Farrell even hitting a 80 mph fastball is hard to when you haven’t played plus you need the strength to hit it out let alone barreling the ball up
Max S Sports analysis pffft yeah right. The least athleticism possible. They literally stand around 90% of the time and the pitchers only play 1-5 games. Hell no baseball aint shit. What do they do thats so special? Stand around and swing a stick at a ball?? Ya know the thing that every human alive can do??? Pfffft baseball fans are retarded. That sport sucks ballsack
