[@NRClips3414]

I think Phelps main thing was his Olympic medals and not his records. Records come and fall all the time, but gold medals don't. He solidified his versatility to dominate anything he tried. If he wanted an unbeatable world record, he would have focused on maximum 2 events if that was his goal. But it evidently wasn't; his goal was max medals as possible.

[@educatedduck6618]

Doesn't matter either way people saying he is the next Phelps is such a delusional and honestly just poor intentioned statement. All of his records are broken because as it's always been, people specialize in events. No one will ever touch Phelp's combination of being good at so many events, and doing it for so long. Phelps already had 6 golds when he was 3 years younger than Marchand is now, and when he WAS Marchand's age, he won his 8 golds at Bejeing. Marchand is only in 4 events in his prime. I love Marchand and am so happy for him, it's not about hating on him, it's about comparing him to Phelps does nothing but create a false perspective, and when you look at the full picture, disminish Marchand's accomplishments by comparing him to am impossible feat. Assuming Marchand added 2 more events (Highly unlikely since he is already in his prime), and assuming he never has a bad race and wins gold in all of them, he still wouldn't quite be half way to Phelp's Gold medals. Nothing but a disservice to compare hin, or anyone, to Phelps.

Nah...nobody coming close to 23 gold medals anytime soon. Phelps was like the Nolan Ryan and Cal Ripken of swimming with longevity and performance. This kid might stack some Golds. Nobody else in history has made it to double digit golds. That's the hardest part of Phelps gold record is that he was beating swimmers way younger than him at the end of his career.

If leon could focus that hard, he could also, never say never. Phelps is a story about how heroes are made. U know like Sydney 2000 his debut olympics he didn't come close to the podium. He did well in athens 2004 and beijing 2008 he transformed himself into the awesome swimmer that he is. If someone wants 23 golds, they have to dedicate themselves to it - we don't know who wants it so bad

[@edmerc92]

@@Kat-zj5kd To win 23 golds, you also have to be from a country that can win a lot of relays. Phelps won 10 golds in relays! Marchand won't get to do that. The focus should really be on the 13 individual golds Phelps won.

[@Kat-zj5kd]

@@edmerc92 oh yea, that's true, i didn't realise that 10 are in relays - thinking back yea sure. France has no chance at relays. But Marchand now is an early stage - he shouldn't bother comparing himself to phelps at the moment. If you have reached 8 - 9 golds, then you can think about it. right now he should focus on getting gold in just the next event. and thereafter train hard (Physically and psychologically) for the next one and do not bother comparing himself to phelps..

Hello, it was a really good video but i just had one question, did you got some inspiration from the video from fatche (a french youtubeur who did a video on Leon Some times ago) because some part of the video look like the video from fatche. Nothing mean just a question

[@PigeonHoledByYT]

My only hangup with Phelps being the most decorated is that there are so many swimming events. If there were 10 events for being an out of shape bum every 4 years at the Olympics I'd be the most decorated. But seriously, how many different javelin throwing events are there? If they added backwards throwing, non dominant hand throwing, double throwing one at a time, double throwing at the same time, throwing two in one hand, 4 split however you like between hands, etc etc etc; I'm sure there would be a most dominant javelin Olympic athlete of all time.

[@rinwob]

are you intentionally being obtuse or are you genuinely saying this?

[@jayscaping]

Not even pretending to try to understand the sport of swimming or how it works lol. There are 4 different strokes and 2-6 different distances for each one, 4 relays, and 2 distances that include all 4 strokes in the same race. These aren't even remotely comparable to "throwing two at once or with one hand" they are actually completely different disciplines that require entirely different sets of skills.
