Your top 3 sports mavericks

[Goaters]

With our very own Super Mario seemingly constantly in the headlines, what would everyones top 3 sportsmen or women who seem to love the limelight and doing the rather whacky stunts be.

Mike Tyson - Seems to have a new law suit filled against him every week, beaten up numerous people. Plus biting off someones ear during a fight shows you are a bit of an animal.

Dennis Rodman - Fairly sure I saw this guy on a reality show last year and he was a nutcase thats for sure. Headbutted a ref who ejected him and kicking a photographer during a game are a couple of incidents that spring to mind.

Diego Maradona - Addicted to cocaine for 20 years and owes the Italian Government 30 million which isn't too shabby. Scored the Hand of God and now wants to manage on these very shores.

Robero Duran - Proper Boxer who would fight anyone anytime, money (the purse) wasnt his motivation .

Diego Maradona - Kinkladze`s hero ,who he modelled his style of play on. I will never witness a better more balanced footballer in my life time . Messi comes close ,but this kid could do so much more with a football at his feet.

Alex Higgins -the peoples Champion ,made snooker interesting and brought the game to a younger audience. His unorthodox style upset the old school snooker players and was a joy to watch in full flow .

 

[Pigeonho]

Warney for sure
Rodman is a good shout too
Asprilla too for me. Anyone who has the balls to name a football club after themselves is ok in my book!

Paul Gascoigne

Not sure about the write up on Duran.

ROS the greatest natural talent. Some of the shots Higgins played almost defied the laws of physics.

Blue at 2:58 is a mental shot.
