The world's top 100 athletes are released! Kobe lost the election, James was 51st, and the Chinese three were on the list.
The core concept of competitive sports is to be higher, faster and stronger. Every sport is progressing with the development of the times. However, every sport has some people who can be remembered by history, such as Jordan in basketball, Bolt in sprinting, Tyson in boxing and others. The emergence of these superstars has accelerated the development of their respective fields to a large extent, and even after many years, they will still be remembered by people. Some time ago, a British media selected a list of the "World's Top 100 Sports Superstars", so let's take a look at the familiar faces of our finalists.
Ranked first on this list is Pele, known as the “king of the ball”. As the greatest player in football history, Pele has led three times in Brazil Team won the World Cup and was almost unbeatable at its peak. In fact, football is undisputed as the world's No. 1 ball, but whether Pele can be ranked first is a matter of opinion. After all, who is greater between him and Maradona has been a topic of debate among many fans for many years.
is followed by Bolt and Jordan. Bolt is undoubtedly the most outstanding athlete in the history of track and field. He won the 100m and 200m championships for three consecutive Olympic Games and set a world record. This achievement alone is unprecedented. It can be said that Bolt is the representative of the extreme speed of mankind, almost invincible at its peak.
and Jordan is recognized as NBA has the best history, no one. In his 15-year career, he led the Bulls to three consecutive championships twice, was elected FMVP 5 times, and won the scoring champion 10 times. If it weren't for the "willful" retiring midway through his career, he changed to baseball.His resume will be more brilliant. In other words, Jordan turned out to promote the sport of basketball to the world.
In addition to Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson , O'Neal and other NBA legendary stars are not selected, which can not help but feel a little surprised. The current star LeBron James is the only basketball player to be selected (ranked 51st). Of course, whether it is personal honor or off-court influence, James is indeed eligible to be included in this list.
In contrast, there are not a few players selected in the football field. In addition to Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, , Beckenbauer and others are all selected. This time the world’s top 100 athletes list. This has to make people sigh that football deserves to be the world's most influential sport.
It is worth mentioning that there are also three Chinese athletes on the list, namely Lin Dan, Deng Yaping and Gao Min, but they are all ranked outside 90. However, it must be admitted that these three athletes have achieved extraordinary achievements in their respective fields, and their dominance is unique. Especially Lin Dan, who has won various Grand Slams in his career, even has many fans jokingly calling him the Jordan of badminton.
