Dave. He's not even the greatest ever Olympian!
It's a fair question, who was? Please, not Phelps. Clearly he can't be the greatest - any sport that permits you to be competitive at 7 disciplines has to be considered dubious. |

Andre Agassi.
Yep, an unlikely one i know, but i was reading about him the other day on Wikipedia and thought fuck me, that's a sportsman. Amongst his many achievements he is the only player to ever rank in the top 3 in 3 different decades. And all this from a player that was short, not massively fast and couldn't serve that well.

Yep, an unlikely one i know,
Winning Wimbledon from the baseline while the rest of the world were serve volleying was no mean feat. But he was eclipsed at least in achievement by Sampras and Federer, So not for me. |

Sugar Ray Robinson was a better pound for pound boxer than Ali.
Isn't Marciano the only heavywight champ to go undefeated throughout his career? Mind you I think he fought a few boxers which were past it.

Suprisingly, his total career victories is higher than Sampras.
