When Lionel Messi appeared in millions of posts around the world after winning the Copa America, most people started posting the emoji of a goat, to refer to The GOAT, a play on words that goes further and refers to the acronym The Greatest Of All Times. It depends on the sport we are referring to, it could be in the NFL where Tom Brady has earned this nickname for being a multiple champion, just like Roger Federer in tennis. 

 

 

Books have been written under this name, one of them dedicated to the boxer Cassius Clay, Muhammad Ali. Records have also been recorded that have little or nothing to do with sports. Media of the relevance have made their list only of sportsmen in the United States. We can put together a list of 5 players who can be called the GOAT in the world, any discrepancy will be welcome because it is a list that will never be definitive.

 

 

Top 5 Th GOAT

 

 

1 Lionel Messi

Spanish Champion, Champions League Champion, Copa America Champion, historical goal scorer and also praised for his technique. He's led FC Barcelona to 32 trophies, won an Olympic gold medal with Team Argentina and holds the Guinness World Record for most goals scored in a season but there's still one major milestone the world's greatest soccer star has not yet achieved: a World Cup victory. But in the mythical Maracana against Brazil, which had not lost against South American opponents in official matches for 80 games, Lionel Messi's most desired goal was achieved. With a goal by Ángel di María, Argentina won 1-0 over the Canarinha and won its 15th Copa América.

 

2 Tom Brady

In the NFL, Brady has written a history that seems unmatched with seven Super Bowl wins, touchdown passes, record yards through the air, and all after he was not the ideal choice in the Draft

 

3 Roger Federer

Federer is nicknamed his majesty and as in other sports there are debates about who is at his level, in this case the 20 Grand Slam titles make him a legend.

 

4 Muhammad Ali

Perhaps the oldest on the list and that's because the controversies over who is the greatest boxer of all time rarely leave him out. His record is 56 victories in 61 fights, of which we can still count the confrontations against George Foreman or Joe Frazier in the Rumble in the Jungle.

 

5.- Michael Phelps

A true newcomer who during his participation in the Olympic Games won 28 medals, 23 of them gold. Speed, technique, power and a unique underwater condition make him a historic figure in the sport.
