Listening to the Olympic commentators makes me cringe sometimes. Some of these cretins are convinced Usain Bolt is a greater Olympian than Phelps. No Way----NO FRIGGIN' WAY!!!! => Michael has won more total golds and total medals over a longer period of time He Owned the pool in Beijing. Bolt dominated two individual and one relay over two Olympiads. => Michael's career has lasted much longer than Bolt's. => Michael probably has the aerobic capacity of 3 Bolts put together. => Bolt is all fast-twitch fibers - honed to perfection for sure but I'd love to see him try to run a 400 or 800m.Michael is fast and slow twitch fibers.

  • I think where Bolt has the edge over Phelps right now is he's never shown a *** in his armor. He's been absolutely perfect at the Olympics. Of course he's also only raced six finals at the Olympics whereas Phelps has raced in something like 24 finals. Ah, He didn't win the Jamaican Trials and fail stated at Worlds last Year. It is too soon for Bolt to show any major "chinks in his armor"
