Is Mat Fraser the greatest athlete of all time?

Nearly impossible to pick an athlete across the different sports, but Bo Jackson should definitely be on the short list.

Bo Jackson is highly likely to be myostatin deficient. It's not really impressive when a person is myostatin deficient. Stop comparing myostatin deficient athletes who grow muscle like it's nothing to NON-myostatin deficient athletes.

This is why it's more impressive for a non-myostatin athlete such as basically the entire crossfit world to accomplish this. Yet as of right now there are none of them faster than 58 seconds at bodyweights over 190.

If anything they are in the 1:00 to 1:03 range at best. Including Froning who has a PR of like 1:00 at 195lbs.

Which is kind of a joke considering they are suppose to be the best athletes in the world.

Not one single current top crossfit athlete can run under 58 seconds in the 400 meter dash at bodyweights over 190.

You would have to be a supreme athlete to perform that feat. Do you know anyone who can?

This is why I thought Sebrle to be the athlete of men. Guy was 6' 1" 195, so muscle bound chiseldness, all the while benching 330 lbs and running a 47 sec 400.

Froning also has a 5K PR of about 22:03. To say that is pedestrian would be a huge understatement.

Although considering his other talents, pretty impressive when you think of what 5k time top NFL, NBA players can do. Which is >29 minutes. Quite a joke for "athletes" that you're supposed to be convinced by ESPN are the best in the world.

He may be one of the fittest vegans in the history

XFit is where the failed athletes at other sports go. The ones that crave attention but never got it before.
