Many great posts here, but I am still with my original choice of Karelin and his decade of being not only unbeaten but unscored upon.

Besides, despite what one might be inclined to assume based on his size and looks, he was an intellectual: a chess player and student of the arts.

Sweet Karelin
Goat mimes never seemed so good
I'd be inclined
To believe they never would

So many possibilities.


I haven't done much looking up, but Vasily Alekseyev was pretty amazing. I've wondered for a while what he could have actually done if they hadn't given him bonuses for world records. One competition on tv he was lifting some crazy weight and one foot came off the floor. So even with what he was trying it seemed like he had so much more room .
