weightlifting no contest! Let's face it, we'd all do it if we could.

All three have their merits, they are all tough sports in my eyes.

They all have their pros and cons and tbh the pseudo-rivalry that sometimes goes on (I know this poll is tongue in cheek but it does happen elsewhere) is somewaht bizzare. Lifters in all three have one ultimate goal: Lift the most weight!

Someone like Koklyaev is so impressive, he has excelled at all three sports. That is really impressive.

Question is a bit vague to be honest. King on what terms?
Popularity: football even though i hate it.
Difficulty: marathon.
Maybe rugby then.

I voted weightlifting because of the qualities involved, its simplicity yet quite technical. I find it violent and beautiful, sharp and powerful a blend of opposite things where man is the link.

I voted powerlifting as I like being smelly and strongman is gay.

But for all round display of athleticisim weightlifting.
