I always wish I would have tried boxing though, it is prolly my favorite sport to watch. Any time ESPN classic has an Ali fight on, I am sure to catch it.

Plus when your tired you are getting punched in the face, stomach , back, arms ect.

Going hard for 3 rounds in wrestling is very hard....going 10 rounds while getting punched is a whole different thing

But not everyone can play the game of basketball and do it well. Sure anyone can stumble around on the floor. But to truely be great it takes a phenomenal athlete. Micheal Jordan is the obvious example. The hardest sport as far as skill is concerned is Baseball! I know it isn't on your list though.

I used to be able to hit 90 mph in a cage in my early 20's I tried it again in my 30's I was laughed out of the cage by my friends.

I can still play basketball and football but I am alot slower but I still haven't lost much, but in baseball it's weird how much I lost in skills.
I used to be able to judge a ball hit to the outfield now what looks like a pop fly is actually a liner over my head.
