what sport requires the most skill?

Skill-wise, I would ice hockey.
In other sports, you can walk, stand and run which most people can do, so they can start to develop other parts of the game without having to learn how to ice skate.
I don't know why boxing it up there because you can easily learn to stand, punch, jab, duck, etc. in a day. Getting good at it takes awhile. It takes months to learn how to ice skate alone.
I'm not saying boxing is easy. Boxing is more stamina-intensive than ice hockey. Boxers are in for three minutes rounds. Ice hockey, you can get off the ice and switch in under three minutes and usually in less than two minutes. Goaltending is more stamina-intensive if your defense can't clear the puck from your zone, but you can get a break if the puck leaves your zone.

I agree with hockey, except for being a pitcher. Pitching is the most difficult thing to do without question. Then playing hockey all around. It's probably the only sport that you can't pick up later and master. Football, basketball, boxing, baseball (cept pitching), golf you can all master later but hockey, you either have to begin playing competitively very young or have been a skating prodigy.

Tennis. Most nikkas just don't understand what it takes to hit groundstrokes well and with velocity. I've been playing tennis for 20 years, and I can count the number of truly clean forehands I've hit on one hand, and I've beaten somebody who beat Radek Stepanek. Tennis is hard as fukk.

I don't consider golf a sport

Dumbest. Argument. Ever.

Tell me about all of those great baseball players who came into the NFL and NBA and dominated.
