Which sport is physically the MOST hardest?

the triathlon is nothing compared to the dodecathlon. in that, you do 12 different sports back to back. and nothing girlie like riding bicycles or knitting. The thread was about the hardest single sport and NOT multiple sports! And I guess you never rode a bike because you hate cycling so much!

I would say CHESS! :D Shut your lips dude...

That's a load of bollox, with respect to this thread... :eek: "Which sport is physically the MOST hardest?" It has Football at No.3 ????? And basketball at No.4 ????? Who said that? :D

I was watching bull riding on tv the other night. Thats a really tough sport, these guys are riding a 2,000 pound bull for 8 seconds. Some of these guys getting thrown, stomped on, drilled with horns, i'd say they take the most punishment. The most physically demanding sport is boxing though, look at some footage of young Tyson training.

Look at a veteran boxer's face like Hopkins and try to tell me that that kind of damage can be inflicted in any other sport. Oh man, I hate to say this but Hopkins hasn't taken much punishment in his boxing career. That's just what he always looked like!

Boxing and football. Nothing else compares to these two, I'm sorry. Look at a veteran boxer's face like Hopkins and try to tell me that that kind of damage can be inflicted in any other sport. I agree that other sports are physically challenging but challenging and damanging are two separate things. As for football, well look at how many football players die in their 40s and 50s (most recently Reggie White) and you'll have a good idea as to what punishment those guys take. The death of Reggie White was not football related.

Cycling must also be emotionally painful as well. Just look at these cyclers go at it. This clip is regarded as The Sorriest Fight Ever Recorded! Haha, LOL, that's hilarious and embarrassing at the same time.

Boxing takes 2nd spot to me. The 1st should be cycling ala Le Tour De France where those thin wire bikers conquer the rolling hills...then up and down a sky high mountain for 3-5 hours non-stop! I could only imagine the torture they put on their legs. Just ask Lance Armstrong. And 3rd, Marathon. Cycling must also be emotionally painful as well. Just look at these cyclers go at it. This clip is regarded as The Sorriest Fight Ever Recorded!

Race Walking Distance Running Cycling Nordic Ski racing (cross country skiing) Race Walking! Who the hell care's (or knows anything about!) race walking! It should be banned as a sport on the basis of how fucking ridiculous they look with that hip gyration nonsense! Race Walking! LOL!! :D

kickboxing, rowing, cross country skiing, world's strongest man contest and the paralympic marathon... :)

LOL! What's wrong with those two idiots?! They could've just get on their bikes and follow the main pack (it's only a few meters away!). too busy trying to scratch each others eyes out... Absolutely pathetic display! Funny as all hell though!

Cyclists are pretty mean fighers too.. Look at these two!! LMAO!!! :D :D http://s33.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=28MJF04R07XZN3L6ES5K8CPBEA LOL! What's wrong with those two idiots?! They could've just get on their bikes and follow the main pack (it's only a few meters away!).

The question is kinda general. If you mean physically demanding, then football and hockey have to be near the top. I mean guys who play those sports are barely able to walk by the time theyre 50. If you mean permant brain damage, look at ALI. Boxing is grueling no doubt.. No tour de france athlete has to worry about ending up in the emergency room after trying not to get killed in the ring. some guys are always in the emergency room seeing how bad their concussions are after a fight.

Without A Doubt Its Gotta Be Mma(ufc,pridefc) Or Boxing. These Are Grueling Contact Sports, Any Other Sport As Hard Competitive As It Might Be Doesnt Have To Worry About Getting Fucked Up, In Mma, Or Boxing You Do And You Gotta Dish Out Your Own On Your Opponent. And why do you have to capitalize all the initial letters of your every word?! Cycling will roll-over Boxing like a freight train.
