Jim Thorpe has to be up there for me, though. I would also add Daley Thompson (yes, Eaton has since broken his world record, but that is possibly a function of time, nutrition and better training)

Roger Federer is pretty damn athletic, as was Jonah Lomu. Carl Lewis was a great, albeit drug fuelled, all rounder.
In boxing terms, read up about James J Jeffries as an all round athlete
