My vote is cross-country skiing

Try cross-country skiing for 36 minutes while you are getting punched in the body and face

I'll take a pass on that one. I don't like getting punched in the face with or without skis on

How an athlete rates has nothing to do with how hard a sport is son. Do you know anything at all about sports??? My guess is you were not good enough to play on any team so you have no clue.

Even if he is the champion of that sport . WOW. I think he should have a little more credit than a third rate athlete.

Nah haven't played anything organized since High School. Time is money.

My God I can't believe I didn't realise you were in love with me till now.

At least I know what sports I like and don't switch back n forth and blame my dislike of a sport on gambling. Pathetic. Funny you hate boxing because of what goes on in the pros. Looks like you don't belong in the sport at all if your love of it goes out the window because of a fixed fight.

You hate the sport of boxing because you think some fights get fixed. You shouldn't be allowed to put on gloves. No passion for the fuckin sport itself. All the greats are spinnin in their graves because of your disgraceful ass.

Me boxing and me watching a fight on TV have nothing in common, if you had ever been an athlete you would know that son.

Clearly said by you: I hate Boxing. So clearly, the thread that you made about 1 day ago confirms that you hate the sport because of a PPV fight. Sad

I used to be an athlete in high school (said that like 15 minutes ago). It doesn't hurt my feelings that I don't play now . And I don't need to be an athlete to read some dumb ass shit you posted. Only a dumbass like you would correlate the two.

Also swimming is a very brutal sport. When I did it it was the hardest thing I had ever done up to that point.

i really think the toughest sport really depends on wut kinda crap ur doing... i guess its more of an opinion 2...id think it would be professional weight lifting

MMA is pretty tough stuff. Cross country running is too.

i wouldnt know, i havent done either

Ultramarathon runners get high marks for being both physically and mentally punishing. Those men and women are insane. Sure MMA and boxing are super tough and skillful sports but the pain is short turn. Ultramarathoner's have to carry all their food and supplies on their backs (max weight 20lbs) and run accross some of the harshest lanscapes in the most extreme weather for like a week, most never finish the race.
Try doing the 100km ultra race... these people are not human.

Damn!

The idiot calls it the toughest sport then says one of the champions of the sport is a bum. Fuckin Dumbass.

Toughest, as in tougest to compete in? Ironman Triathlon. 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, 26.2 mile run. Focking INSANE.

IAB, have you ever done a 112 mile bike ride?

Nope. I'm more of a mountain biker and don't do many road rides. My longest road ride has been 60 miles.

I'm training for a triathlon next year, but it's one of the shorter ones ("sprint" category): 1/2 mile swim, 15 mile bike, 5 mile run. If I survive that, I'll work my up to longer ones.

I can't even imagine pedaling 112 miles and THEN running a marathon!

Curling.
