yes. undoubtedly.

no question

swimmers aren't athletes
they're performers

Greatest athlete is technically ashton eaton. Phelps is the best olympian though.

If bolt wins 100m and 200m he will become GOAT

>meme sport in a meme league

Kek top

If basketball had 100 oppurtunities to win gold medals. MJ would have won all 100

Olympian.

1.Phelps
2.Gretzky
3.Jordan

Your mom is a performer

>can only run 100 or 200m
>not even hurdles

THE END

>has won more medals this olympics than great britain
can't make this shit up, fan

1/10 b8

He has the greatest medical team for PEDs

If Tiger Woods' career ended with some bizarre career ending injury or something similar I would agree..

But he was completely disgraced and plummeted from GOAT to beta bitch and that's his legacy.

why is le clos called a chad? is he cocky?

Swap Montana for Brady and you have the GOATs

football is too debatable to have anyone on there, stop kidding yourselves.

Other way around. Jordan was a performer. The difference being that basketball is a spectator sport.

Swimming was a mistake.

Better golfer than MJ too.

>this old argument

Being 4-0 in super bowls < Being 4-2 in super bowls

Same stupid cunts around here that say they'd rather be last then have a silver, illogical

...

Who are the 5 best athletes of all time Sup Forums?

Speaks to humanity's primal roots. Humans like things that are the biggest and things that are the fastest.

...

Brady is the type of nigga to be world class but when under pressure becomes even better somehow. It's ridiculous.

rest of the world, are you even trying?

...

Jordan was never the greatest athlete of all time

Jordan
Ali
Bolt
Tiger
Fatnaldo before he got hurt

kind of sad how quiet that BR arena was, had to get them to hype up

Carl Lewis won multiple events, it's possible to do more than run 5 feet in track. Bolt is a one trick pony

>Montana
>Brady
>Not Jerry Rice
>mfw

Lawrence Taylor is the GOAT non QB

He's a god but there are other sportsmen higher up in the pantheon

Bolt, Jordan, Federer, Ali, Woods, Pele

>losing those 2 superbowls to the worst manning
Argument is automatically invalid

20 golds is downright insane so yes.

ON YOUR FEET PLEBES

I lean this way too. But I really don't think it will happen again. Although it's be something to see.

It is actually pretty impressive what he has done.

did anyone care about swimming except in the 2 week timeframe of olympics every 4 years?

yes he will have a spot in history with his 20+ gold medals but even then hes nowhere known as a football,basketball,formula1 or american football legend t b h

how much did he earn in his career? probably not even what messi or ronaldo earn in a season.

>implying brad won't win a 5th this year

to kek

> worst manning
> absolutely better when it matters with absolutely worse teams

Peyton is a fraud m8

Michael Jordan was never considered the best athlete of all time just the best basketball player

Jim Brown brety gud too

Ah, fan of worthington's law I see

The Olympics are older than soccer, basketball, f1 and whatever other sport you wish to mention.

And he is literally the best Olympian of all time. Think about that.

Honest question
would you let Phelps fuck your gf if there's even a slight chance he'll pass on his superior genes to him?
he will bear no responsibility of it and no one will know

he's worth $55M currently, and gets to take years off at a time before getting back into shape. after these olympics he'll probably be closer to a $100m net worth, and he is going to retire.

Ruth, Ali, Jim Thorpe, Michael Johnson, maybe Bolt soon

But Phelps is still in the conversation

his name is literally chad and yeah he's a cocky fuck

Joe lost to the Giants 3 times in the playoffs, lost to the Minnesota Vikings in the playoffs, lost to the Buffalo Bills in the playoffs.

Hmmmm really makes you think

I think Montana's super bowl performances dwarf Brady's by a good bit. Not to mention the defenses he went up against in the playoffs. He also beat Marino and Elway.

Also

If Ashton Eaton wins the decathlon again I'd say he's better than Phelps.

cancer does not make you a good athlete

>The Nazi puppet state of Norway
>knowing shit about hockey

pick 2

SeeThe teams Brady faced were much fucking better than the shitty teams that Joe's stacked "No salary Cap" era 49ers decimated.

XLIX>>>>>any montana owl

Keep in mind Brady did not have anyone to throw to his first 3 wins. Only on his 4th did he have Gronk. And even then, he served mostly as a distraction.

>he rates manlet athletes

Sorry clapper

>they did things i don't like
>therefore their athletic achievements are null and void!

he will retire in Tokyo 2020 Olympics

Tokyo is his favorite place and would like to move there.

>Who is Jahangir Khan?

On the 68' olympics there was a jump from 18 swimming events to 29. In the first olympics there were only 4 events

If we keep this bloat going on we'll probably get guys who win 50 medals in 2 olympics, does this mean they'll be better than Phelps?

>swimming
>a serious sport

GOAT is Messi or Federer

there's no way he has another one in him. plus with the way these are going so far he's gonna retire on top

DUDE, WEED LOL

Isn't it obvious? I mean, come on, it's a doping case.

Phelp's urine must be green fluorescent.

>no jim thorpe
cmon

Wrong
Mj played against a field of comparative retards
>false flag

>preparing all year to splash about for a minute in a straight line marginally faster than someone else
>athlete

Hmm nice try but no

if he got medals on weed. then yes. hes the greatest athlete of all time.

>swimming
Who literally, unironically gives a shit?

mad cuz bad

Thorpe, Jordan, Ruth, Ali.

Soccer is jogging and falling, Tennis hasn't been relevant in 20 years (when the USA moved on and the competition went to shit)

phelpes literally smokes weed every day and eats 2000 pizzas and he got 20 medals

Isn't that the natural color of your water?

americans are the most powerful race in the world

>have a large breastplate and long arms
>win

Swimming, everyone.

>Tennis hasn't been relevant in 20 years (when the USA moved on and the competition went to shit)

lol you fucking wish. Roddick tried his best but he was a wasteman

don't be stupid, negroes passing a ball and jumping here and there like baboons don't make them athletes, you're saying that because there's a fat chance that you're a stupid diarrhea skinned baboon yourself

You hit the gym HARD while Michael Phelps eats PIZZA and FUCKS your olympic waifu.
