What is the most physically demanding sport?

[Prostitroop]

i agree with most of that list, except the fact they say you need better endurance to play basketball than soccer...LOL

basketballers play 4 12 min quaters...on a tiny court...WOW

footballers run for 90 mins on a massive pitch, it is said they cover on average 8.8 miles every game.

you can tell it is a yank list!

LOL, I agree. And in bball, at least the NBA, they implemented silly rules where you just touch somebody in the arm and it's a foul. Rules to protect players.

And why isn't gymnastics on the list? Male gymnastics is pretty demanding on the body...

Boxing is #1. It's almost inhumane, but that's why we love it. We are all ****ing savages

[BOLLOCKS]

Golf, No doubt about it.

[JmtRyan]

Iron man, easily!

European football? LOL, are you serious?

You do realise an average midfielder runs about 15km each match?

[Naps]

Boxing, MMA and Rugby are all about as tough as it gets.

NFL requires practically no endurance or fitness.

[Rocky...]

Boxing and MMA are the toughest.

[Uturn]

Darts, these guys are real athletes

[the_blueprint]

ice hockey and basketball should be in that list for sure, they are very tireing

in the nba they usually play 2 games in 3 days, and if your a key player, lebron, kobe, wade you pretty much play the hole game, jumping and sprinting for say 40mins is bloody nackering

Asking this question ON a boxing forum probably sin't the best way to come up with an unbiased public answer... even though I feel it is also... surely MMA and rugby are definitely in the mix..
