Sir Don Bradman is the greatest sportsman who ever lived
Sir Don Bradman averaged a century every 2.76 innings and averaged 99.94 in one of the most skilled sporting positions in the world - a batsman in cricket.
There are many great sportsman - Muhammud Ali, Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Rod Laver, Michael Jordan, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Sachin Tendulkar (cricket - who averages 56 & scores a century every nearly 5.8 innings) and many others who are considered all time great sportsman. However, they would all have to double every stactistic within their own sport in their own era - then those stactisitcs would have to remain almost twice as good as all the competitors in every era that followed to even be mentioned as a contender of the greatest sportsman of all time.
Bradman still holds the following significant records for Test match cricket today!
There are many arguments about the variations of strengths, weaknesses, conditions and depth within each era of all sporting debates - however no sportsman has dominated any sport to the same degree as Bradman.
Not taking into account the forever standing and unbroken records above - just to be on par with Bradman, Michael Jordan would have to average 70 points per Basketball game (Jordan averages 31.5 per game) and the all time great baseballer, Ty Cobb would need to have a batting average of 508! (batting average is 366)
Who is the second best sportsman of all time is a good debate!

Oh yeah... big time... He will always be remembered.Yes he will be remembered! Out of the ring he was a controversial and heroic leader followed by many and he captured the imagination of the world with his intellegent and challenging poems before his fights - they were often backed up in the ring. Along with his exceptional boxing abilities, Ali became a global icon.However Ali is NOT the greatest sportsman of all time and in fact he is possibly not even the greatest boxer of all time - he did lose 5 times!The greatest sportsman ever is Don Bradman
