Phelps- The thing that separates the legends/icons from those who are talented and do well in a sport is the ability to forge ahead, compete, and win despite having a target on your back, and despite personal adversity and mental health challenges- the decision to never give up- especially when there is a deep field of competition and even if not feeling your best emotionally. It is the absolute hatred of losing and the determination to do everything in one's power to ensure that never happens. That is Phelps.
@@federalisticnewyorkians4470 Phelps was also an all-rounder- and he was mentally the toughest guy out there. An ICON who set the bar for the up and comers. The way sport should work. Now somebody needs to replicate his killer instinct- the closest who's come to it so far is this Popovici kid. We'll see. Time will tell.
@@federalisticnewyorkians4470 Dressel himself recently said in an interview that he could not swim the breadth of events Phelps did because he doesn't have the range. I say maybe he could if he really wanted to try but he's limited himself and won't. THAT is the difference between Phelps and Dressel. Both great swimmers. One a mental shark who refuses any limits to success.
@@ImmortalBudda maybe because Dressel won 5 golds in the last Olympics. But overall, he's just won 3 individual golds, while Phelps' 13 seems quite hard to equal
Pointless discussion. 8 Golds >>>>> Anything will Dressel ever accomplish. Dressel will make his mark, but his talent can never surpass Phelp's accomplishment. Just accept it folks.
Nah that’s bs LMAO you can’t just discredit him for not getting 8 golds in one olympics plus with the consistency that he has it’s possible that he can get really close to 7 golds and potentially 8
It should be celebrated for a woman to have no ovaries and internal testes? And who celebrates Phelps genetics. People say he had the ideal genetics. That’s not exactly celebrating. If anything, people celebrate the ones who don’t have ideal genetics yet still excel.
Mostly start and underwater phases. If you check videos from 20 years ago you can see how much more refined those techniques are today. Obviously Phelps helped paving the way on this side.
Most of it is that dressel is a sprinter, Phelps was not. He was far more comfortable in the middle distances than he was in the 100 fly, and he said himself that race always made him the most nervous.

thx
Dressel was such a beast in Tokyo. My favorite memory coming out of those games, so exciting to watch
I love this dude
@Meagan Brooks How do u know he didn't tell his family?
@Meagan Brooks so who's gonna be next dressel?
@@isolated.4722 Dressel just needs to recuperate
Ok george.

He's also an all rounder. He does the 100 free in relays all the way up to the 200 fly to even the 400 IM with devestating power for his time.
bro does more events
@@federalisticnewyorkians4470 yeah imo Dressel is more of a sprinter, while Phelps is an all rounder

He's the best swimmer and Aquaman of the ocean 😆
Phelps one of my fav Athlete
Phelps all event best swimmer
except this one. and 200
Phelps- 23 - time Olympic champion
M.Phelps- 100m butterfly 3 🏅cold medal ( 2004, 2008, 2012) 200m butterfly 3 🏅 cold medal ( 2004, 2008, 2016 ) K.Dressel 1🏅( 2020) 200m -0- .....M.Phelps 37 World record ! 🐏
there is a gap between them and I don't know why these two swimmers are compared ... phelps competed in all competitions, and dressel did not ...
@@ImmortalBudda maybe because Dressel won 5 golds in the last Olympics. But overall, he's just won 3 individual golds, while Phelps' 13 seems quite hard to equal
@@rafiderianto3604 what phelps has done is nigh-impossible to repeat. Comparing anyone to him is a disservice to both athletes.
2 GOAT 🐐
Dressel is a machine
مايكل لن يتكرر ..
give us the final of the 200 free please (as well as the heats and semi finals of every race)
Both swimming super stars inspire me to swim 🏊♂️
Both men stove to be the greatest of their generation, but if they were in the same generation, there would only be one winner. MP
Dressel best 100m butterfly
Легендарні ! Оба легенди свого часу!
For me caeleb dressel is better than Phelps in 100 m butterfly. But I love them both..
Cavic beat them both in this race
@@fortitude1208 Has Cavic ever go under 50 second before ? Or just that 50.01 he set ?
Wow, now Phelps' time is beaten by more than 1 sec! The swimmers are becoming so much better. New comers have to put more and more effort to make it.
But swimming more than 12 races , morning , and afternoon for each event in a week.... , that's rhe difference
@David Pumpkin his actual best time was set in a suit.
@@nolanlemon5193 lol
they're just so amazing
Pointless discussion.
8 Golds >>>>> Anything will Dressel ever accomplish.

Yup Phelps is considered as the greatest Olympian he is pretty much untouchable so not even a argument if anybody can surpass him
you can’t compare phelps to dressel, phelps was more of a mid-distance swimmer and dressel is a pure sprinter
they are in DIFFERENT eras so you can’t compare them
@@elmonoconzapatos7159 Micheal Phelps was sprinter too! 100m Butterfly is literally a sprint event! From 200m, it is called as Mid- Distance Swimming!
Love it!!
Goats
Milorad Cavic
the whole point of this video is to show the breaking of 50" , nothings more!!!
many critics in comments!!
In the picture Phelp 00:50:58 dressel 00:49:45 ..i think the winner Dressel isn't he
AHI SALE LUIS CARLOS🤩🤩
Like from India
music please ?
Iam with phelps
Fun fact: None of us have finished watching this video yet
찐이다
yes i did 🤣
cap
Questionable win Beijing!!! Always Will be!!!
Dressel much better in 100 fly. If he had the same suit as phelps he'd be going 48 plus..
whats with the suits?
why dressel missing on the 100m freestyle and butterfly in budapest is it due to he knows he will lose to popvici or milak if he compete??
Illness
that race phelps was tirwd of too many races and still won
16.6 in 50 meters? They were flying
Show!! 👏👏👏👏
Watching Phelps get celebrated and Caster Semenya get crucified for their natural biology sickens me.
Facts!
It should be celebrated for a woman to have no ovaries and internal testes? And who celebrates Phelps genetics. People say he had the ideal genetics. That’s not exactly celebrating. If anything, people celebrate the ones who don’t have ideal genetics yet still excel.
Heartbroken
🔥🔥🔥
I wonder what changed for the times to be this much faster compared to 13 (now 14) years ago.
Mostly start and underwater phases. If you check videos from 20 years ago you can see how much more refined those techniques are today. Obviously Phelps helped paving the way on this side.
Building muscle also helped. They are very strong now, check how the récords that last are those mainly longer distances.
Most of it is that dressel is a sprinter, Phelps was not. He was far more comfortable in the middle distances than he was in the 100 fly, and he said himself that race always made him the most nervous.
🐐
But Kristof Milak was disruptive them wkwk
Dressel va dépasser tous le monde!
Phelps is better than baby Drssel

Cavic touched before Phelps, the biggest theft in history of this sport..
Says who? All the underwater pics and videos clearly shows Phelps won that. Being salty about that ain't gonna help after 14 years.🤷♂️
