Idk why he gets overlooked in the GOAT athletes list. In his prime he was so unmoggable no one even came close. An absolute force from 2004 to 2016, but peaking around the 2008 Beijing Olympics, he dominated swimming like no one else ever had. Imagine winning all eight gold medals in all competitions you competed in a single Games in multiple range of events sprints, distance, butterfly, freestyle, individual medleys, and relays. Always the first and his second was a mile away from hin

He also regularly broke world records in the process. His world record stood for almost 10 years and only got broken by someone not in a competition with peds. Most decorated Olympian ever with 23 gold and 28 total Olympic medals numbers no one else touches across any sport. He is up there with most dominant athletes of their sports of all time like Wayne Gretzky,Tiger Woods, Tom Brady etc

He was so dominant in his sport that most people know him without ever having seen more than three minutes of swimming in their lives. He reminds me of Lance Armstrong in that way

yep that's peak effort + genetics at play
 
Sprinting is pinnacle of human physical abilities.
That makes usain bolt automatically greatest athlete of all time .

Other can claim goat status in their respective sport tho .
 
not with that lower third he wasnt
 
seriously tho he was the most dominant swimmer ever - it will likely stay that way
