The greatest basketball player to ever live? You could say that, but the best athlete of all time? Hardly. He couldn’t even play professional baseball; he was only skilled enough to play in the minors. Bo Jackson excelled in professional football AND professional baseball. He could have also been a track star if he wanted to. He was just, simply put, an all around better athlete.

I agree with the fact that Bo Jackson is the best Two-Sport athlete. He was very impressive in both baseball and football. A man who could break a bat over his head, or pop his hip back in place is pretty impressive. As far as him being the best athlete in history of sports I disagree. He does not have the notables and records like Michael Jordan does. Michael Jordan holds records that might never be broken. To where as Bo has records that are common among normal men. Also Bo is not well known, but yet Michael Jordan is one of the greatest sports names in history. Michael Jordan’s shoe brand is way better than Bo Jackson’s too. So not only is Jordan better than Jackson in sports, but also in Advertisement.
