Better Athlete: Deion Sanders or Bo Jackson?

[NormanConnors]

It’s clearly Bo. Didn’t he pretty much injure/end his career because of the power he was running with?

Nope had nothing to do with his running style.

1. Bo
2. Deion
3. Nate Robinson

 

[BrothaZay]

Deion. He didn’t get injured

 

[mastermind]

It was Bo.

Man was a part time professional football player.

 

[Sbp]

Deion himself said it was Bo

Yeah. When he was on Arian Foster's podcast he said Bo was better.

Actually now that I'm thinking about I've heard people say Dave Winfield was the greatest. Only athlete to be drafted by 4 leagues - NFL (didn't even play football in college), NBA, ABA and MLB (HOFer).

 

[Silkk]

Bo, without a doubt

@jwonder Where ya at CAC?

Deion is more accomplished and an amazing athlete in his own right but in my lifetime I have never seen a person of Bo Jackson's size 6'1 215-220 move with that level of speed. I mean imagine. A Brandon Jacobs type of back with Tyreek Hill level speed.

Jacobs was much bigger than Bo. Jacobs was like 6'4", 264 lbs

Has to matter somewhat, there’s a lot of freakishly athletic players who have average careers. Vernon Davis comes to mind.

Nah breh, it shouldn’t matter at all. The question is who is more athletic, not who is more productive.

 

[I'm Blackman]

easily bo

 

[Monoblock]

Bo Jackson was the greatest athlete I’ve ever seen. The man was 15 and had grown men shook.

 

[Egomaniacal1]

Bo definitely the better athlete. Had it all, size, speed, hand eye coordination…there’s probably not to many sports he couldn’t have played at an elite level.

Deion 2nd best tho and had the better career.

It's bo but it's no knock on dion
