Espn's Page 2 generally comes up with good stuff. For example, this one about ranking sports by their degree of difficulty.
Soccer is ranked #10 and top 8 in endurance. As a guy who dabbled in swimming and has been known to ride a race bike for 100km (about 3 hours), I was surprised to see long-distance cycling ahead of swimming. Swimming is hard.
The amount of running and jogging on a pitch by soccer players averages to about 10-11 km per game. Getting hacked and knocked around for 10ks takes its toll for sure.
Boxing and ice hockey are 1 and 2. Can't really argue with that.
