MMA-Jones
Football-Mahomes
Basketball-Oscar Robertson
Soccer-Maradona
Boxing-Foreman
Tennis-Borg or Djokovic
College Football-Cam Newton
Baseball-Unclear
Cycling-Unclear
Hockey-Gretzky

My explanation for baseball is there's pitching, hitting and over a century of play. My reasoning for cycling is can't be Lance because he mostly only did one of the sports 3 majors but if it's not Lance theres really not a consensus number 2.
