ESPN has come up with a ranking of "toughest" sports and swimming seems, at least to me, to come up a bit short. sports.espn.go.com/.../sportSkills Of course, since it ranks Badminton as equal with Nordic Skiing, it MUST be right. ;) -LBJ

    Lists are interesting. Swimming suffers in it's ranking because the experts seriously under-rated the flexibility required to excel at the sport and did not include proprioception as one of the ranked skills. Having said all of that would not disagree with boxing as ranked number 1 based on the existing categories.
