Is Michel Phelps the ultimate????????

goodday007, It will depend if there will be another swimmer who is training in the same discipline and be successful with it. People will just catch on and adopt the current training techniques to excel in the competitions, with a possibility of even exceeding Phelps. Just watch the timings in the coming competitions leading to the Olympics. However, if I may add here, I feel that there may be emergence from both South America and Eastern Europe. I am sure you are aware that there are already swimmers from these regions that are already on the honor's roll and overtaken certain disciplines which all along have been dominated by the big swimming nations namely USA. At the moment, it is too early to tell but if there's anything to discount it would be the last Olympics as the results are not really representative. Especially, since it was a meet of plastics. Just be on a lookout, I am sure you will not be disappointed.
