Cristiano Ronaldo
Top 8 in Top 9 Best Athletes Of All Time
When Ronaldo took over Manchester United, they dominated England and Europe for the following seasons, so it's no surprise Real Madrid called. And when he arrived in Bernabeu, everything went smoothly. Ronaldo ripped La Liga defenders to pieces as if nothing else, and his outstanding goal scoring record for United was an astonishing record of 285 goals in 265 appearances.
God blessed him with all the gifts he needed to become the greatest athlete of his day. With five league titles between England and Spain, three Champions League titles (including his first hundred-and-a-half success), the European Championship and four Ballon d'Or awards, few people on this list will dispute his membership.
