[@spd7693]

What about soccer player Ledley King? Here is his story: Ledley King was one of the greatest defenders in Barclays Premier League and in the team of the year season after season. When he was 25 years old however, he received a horrific injury - the capsule of his knee was completely torn and when he was walking, the bones always rubbed on each other. Therefore King was forced to be ruled out of training during the week. He played until 2009 when he was 29 years old after a continuous enhancement of the condition and damage of his knee even more and more. Furthermore, he never played a full 90 minutes game after being found in this condition.

Sean Taylor? Really?! HOW COULD YOU HAVE FORGOT ABOUT HIM

[@Milordvega]

Guys like Sandy Koufax, Bobby Orr, Mike Bossy and Yao Ming were among the greatest ever in their sport, and made the Hall of Fame despite their careers being cut short. We had seen them at their athletic peak, fulfilling their potential. For example, even despite his early retirement, a LOT of baseball fans consider Koufax as the greatest lefthanded pitcher of all time. Bobby Orr is considered the greatest defenceman of all time. So shouldn't this list be limited only to those great athletes who didn't reach the true pinnacle of their career because they got injured or for other reasons? This is where athletes like Petrovic, Seles, Len Bias cand certainly Bo Jackson ome in. We did not get to see them at their absolute best. For an additional athlete, I would also add Boston Celtics shooting guard Reggie Lewis, who was just a few years into his All-Star career when he died of a heart condition in 1993. Also Ralph Sampson, who was a great NBA big man in the mid-80's, but couldn't play too many years due to injuries.

[@sportsfan4life0987]

Ed Vega you are gonna say Yao Ming was one of the greatest in basketball? you are crazy, i wouldnt even rank him top 20 all time

[@TheElinken]

Well then answer this, Ayrton Senna 3 time world champion had a 10 year carreer and is still considered to be one of the best and most important drivers in the world, to only get an honnorable mention is ridiculous. The problem is not just american athletes this is only american sports, basketball the thing you foolishly call football, baseball and hockey that's it no real football, or any motorsports this is just plain stupid...

Only one other player in history had 9 50 goal seasons, Gretzky, and it was over twice as many seasons I know it's not a hockey list, but you could almost make a case for Lemieux too. Between the cancer and back pain so bad he couldn't bend over to tie his own skates before some games, and despite never playing his 1000th career game, he's still top 10 all time in NHL points. Imagine if he'd stayed healthy and had a full 20 year career

[@Rens-005]

N.1 Abdalak Nouri Story: this midfielder joined the Dutch soccer club Ajax at 7 years of age. And quickly made his way to the third highest level in the club. Where he became a fan favorite. Finally he played his first game of Ajax and did what the legends Cruijf and van basten did in there first game. He scored. Sadly in the friendly pre season game against an Austrian club in the mountains he went into cardiac arrest and slipped into a coma. Two weeks later he woke up, but he suffered brain damage so bad that his career ended at only 20 years old.

[@ross121111]

Exactly

[@matotoole486]

+kingbrad1234 To be fair he wasn't as good at cricket as Sterling Sharpe was at Football...

[@zdenochara5391]

I know the video was published before but, José Fernández and Yordano Ventura

[@EduardoGrassoTV]

you REALLY need to change a lot of the titles in sports top tens... just wright "north american sports" because the greatest sport in the world is football so you missed players like Marco Van Basten in this list

[@EduardoGrassoTV]

*write

[@jaydenwallace891]

their channel, their choice of titles and content

[@themonk3120]

+Eduardo Grasso Get over yourself

[@hbomb9397]

"soccer" is for from the greatest sport. the only reason it's so popular is because no matter how poor you are you can make a net and get a ball and play soccer.

[@loganlund3764]

Go look at the voting page, he's on it.

[@D_man2]

Ernie Davis

Yes

[@jakeguzda547]

[@tomjones8340]

Jules Bianchi ??

[@annoyingginger5077]

And Senna

[@juanvictoriano4993]

I would add Jose Fernandez and Prince Fielder to this list now.

[@jaylenmontgomery7912]

Derrick rose will be here...soon

[@thebige3974]

Amen.

[@ryanyoung8742]

Not a real sport

[@ryanyoung8742]

It's a fake sport

[@igorglino]

+Ryan Young lol, go ahead. Keep talking.

[@rickjackmortman6523]

+Ryan Young scripted* sport... but the injuries are way real

[@iTiqqie]

At least title your videos if they're all going to be American sports or 90%! If you're not going world wide, don't bother. Do some homework or stay away from Sports topics!!

[@Random0r]

right

[@jdl92]

Nah cuh

[@Flatlinerrr]

your good

[@Redeye2x20]

This is an American KZbin channel. What did u think would happen

[@rysh0x982]

+joey tayler then call it, top 10 American sports careers cut short,, it's bull man how can the busby babes not be on here

[@Pythagoras1963]

I think Gale Sayers should be on the main list the guy who I never heard of who played 4 for different teams for 10 years seems like he was just an average player (this it was Powers or something) Sayers was exceptional

[@D3andr8]

Where is Tracy McGrady????!!!!!

[@timzkiii]

He retired at 34, so he already was out of his prime

[@Paulafan5]

If he hadn't retired early, he still wouldn't be a hall of famer.

[@michaelmckenzey9552]

Tracey McGrady and Yao Ming never played together while they were on the same team due to injuries. If they were both healthy, the Rockets would have been a dynasty!

[@IndependentOutsider]

J. R. Richard should at least have an honorable mention on this list

[@mmaclipsuknow]

*American sports Cause fuck football, Eric Cantona? Its hard to believe Duncan Edwards didnt make the list, he died at 21 in 1958 Munich Air Disaster but even in his small age he was one of the worlds best, he was the next big thing.

[@mmaclipsuknow]

+Zlatan Ibrahimovic Marco van Basten!!!!!

[@scuti2595]

Duncan was tipped to be the greatest player the world has ever seen, it's a real shame he died, he was better than Maradona by the time he was 19

[@mmaclipsuknow]

Football_Legends15 and hes not on the list...

[@andersongoncalves193]

This is an American channel remember

[@masnimomak7832]

+Zlatan Ibrahimovic don't forget van Basten and Cruyf

[@Pbiblueguy3144]

Pelle Lindberg. Flyers Goalie who was on his was to becoming one of the all time greats !...

[@daegqn]

Where is Sean Taylor, he's my favorite player of all time

[@Mornings]

RIP Pat Tillman.

[@MrNickp2300]

agreed

[@MrNickp2300]

+Jim Ringo it isnt a list of greats that died. its a list of short lived careers. and he died early in his career

[@KyoushaPumpItUp]

At least Yao Ming's legacy lived on as an internet meme.

[@eizoshen7548]

+Ian Cabugsa Haha

[@ladydontekno]

Always look on the bright side of life.

[@danielschwartz8556]

Vlad "the impaler" Konstantinov should have been much higher on this list. In 6 years in the NHL, he was a 2 time Norris finalist, 3 time all star, apparently inspired Federov to keep playing and was a heart and soul player who is still recognized by his team.

[@weknewcardibwasgod]

Kristopher London!?!?

[@markriccio7247]

LSK

[@weknewcardibwasgod]

+Mark Riccio yeah he went through alot

[@willharter730]

I'm sorry but that's so ridiculous, he was good but not nearly as good as some of the players on here that should be on here. If you want a high school basketball player that had their career cut short then google benji Wilson. Just sayin, I don't see ESPN making documentaries on LSK

[@willharter730]

+I'm Lowkey (Superman) it's players who were the most likely to succeed in their sport but couldn't because of injuries or other reasons And I'd put Sean Taylor, pat Tillman, or benji Wilson above LSK in that category. Also if you're gonna call someone retarded, make sure you spell it right

[@kingkante2913]

Ledley King?

[@AlexHernandez-fo1tt]

start putting D Rose on this list while you're at it

[@guinnesssauron8717]

Marco Simoncelli, Daijiro Katoh, Nicolas Salom, Nicklas Feher, Alvaro Benito, Ruben de la Red, Antonio Puerta, Gabriela Sabatini, Martina Hingis, Jennifer Capriati, Guillermo Coria, Justine Henin-Hardenne, Greg Monroe, Andrew Bynum, Marat Safin, Royston Drenthe...

[@koolkitties8552]

Guinness Sauron Jennifer Capprioti had a career.

[@EzErNzK]

Royston drenthe really? He still plays.. he threw away his own carreer after madrid... you must be joking. Better say Marco van basten. He had to quit early with a chronic ankle injurie.

[@gradyw3961]

[@RealyoungnRx]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@aneesniazi7918]

Who ?

[@stevenrichman8392]

Sean Taylor should of been on the list

[@leobertoalbano]

Kenny Easley (The Current Pro Football Hall Of Famer) Will Be Included Since Kenny Played For The Seattle Seahawks In The 1980s And Retired In 1987 Due To A Severe Kidney Disease.

Do top 10 football careers cut short

[@danman1558]

(NFL)

[@lamJoker76]

+shug XxThegawdxX I was thinking the same thing

[@fortnitetwerkcompilation]

It's not a short career without Sean Taylor he could have been one of the best

[@lewycrabtree8259]

I agree with number 1. Bo was so explosive, fast, talented, smart, STRONG and reactionary. He was unbelievable.

[@geoffreysmart6801]

How is Ayrton Senna, the greatest racer ever, not in the top 3?

[@sindromedestendhal212]

Where's Dener and Sean Taylor?

[@mekaidope4192]

Benji Wilson ?

[@dabull3087]

He deserves to be on this list he add crazy potential.

[@ernestperez4420]

RIP

[@utmp5508]

Duncan Edwards? Died in Munich air disaster aged 21 and was tipped to become one of the greatest of all time, he had already proved he was one of the greats with Man United and could have achieved so much more.

[@claywandei9129]

Where is Sean Taylor?

[@idek84502]

Lonzo Ball heaven

[@conorstrack552]

DAAAMN

[@BornLiveandDieby]

Lonzo Ball you'll be on the list soon

[@myownwerstenmy]

The Mandela effect is strong w/ some of y'all. Sean Taylor was great but his legacy is so screwed up. A lot of people never saw him play live but they hear stories of his days at The U or watch some highlights on YT then they start repeating the G.O.A.T nonsense. If his life hadn't been cut short then he wouldn't have the crazy legacy. People talking nonsense about Ed Reed, Ronnie Lott, Deion Sanders, & Troy Polamalu to somehow slide Taylor onto the list or say he was a HoF shoe in if he didn't die. In reality Taylor isn't even top 20 in history.
