I was gonna say soccer. But then a good case was made for hockey. Then an even better case was made for xc ski racing. So I'd like to change my answer to boxing .
I think a light- to middle-weight fighter could gut out a soccer match, a game of hockey if he knew how to skate, and an xc ski race if he knew how to ski. But I don't think any of those other athletes could handle 12 rounds in the ring.
