Every Sport has had at least one great athlete or athletes who have achieved something in that sport which no one will ever be able to take away from them. These achievements can be from winning a game, breaking records and going down as a hero. The heroes from each sport have had a quality and have proven they are the greatest of all time because they might have scored the most goals, smashed a world record and stood up for there own or others rights, Many boys my age look up to these sports stars young and old and believe they are like gods compared to us. Edson Arantes or more commonly known as (Pele). Led Brazil to three world cup championships in 1958, 1962, and 1970. Pele is also the only person in History to score in every game he played and He scored 1,281 goals during his career. Which is a world record though Pele was known for his skill and tactics, which had never been seen before. Pelé was the first soccer player to truly reach superstar status. His name is still mentioned even today, more than a quarter century after his retirement. In boxing there have been many greats such as “Rubin Hurricane Carter”, “Sonny Liston”, “Joe Frazier”. Though the unquestionable greatest boxer was Muhammad Ali or before he changed his name for religious reasons. Ali was the only man ever to reclaim the heavy weight champion belt three times. Ali was tested to become the heavy weight champion against Sonny Liston where Ali complained of having something in his eye, many of the other contenders who took on Liston also all complained about having something in there eyes.
