Michael Phelps.... Deserving of the hype?
#22
Quote:I think Bolt could win a hurdle event if he trained for it as well, but he isn't trying. I think he would need to if you want to put on the level of Phelps. Bolt is much closer to Ian Thorpe in what he is doing, but since Bolt has been more dominant I think he is more impressive than Thorpe was.

I think (but am not sure about this) that this (bolt not going for hurdles) is because the competition in athletics is a lot bigger than in swimming.



By the way, a dutch woman got the gold in dressage for the third time in a row...Anky van Grunsven......however....far from being greatest athlete ever though.:)
