    But the argument is that because Serena has won more grand slams than any other player in history, male or female, it is only right to describe her as the best tennis player ever.

    I don't particularly have a problem with that.

    True. One could argue that when we talk about the best footballers ever we don't specifically say they are male. Just the best.

    Pele never played against a women's team.

    Your mum is a given.

    Mixed Martial Arts was invented to answer all these questions anyway, wasn't it? Like Mixed Doubles in tennis,

    My man Sam Harris is well into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. That's good enough for me.
