It’s kind of skewed with some sports having several events (swimming, gymnastics) where one person can earn many medals and many that are just one unique event.
Interesting to see some variations in the mix though, like 3 on 3 basketball.
Also 8 of his medals were with the sharkskin swimsuit which was immediately banned as it conferred an absolutely immense advantage to those wearing it.
Everyone else didn’t start wearing it and training with it at the same time that the sponsored players did. The Japanese players started using it the month before because they were 100% sure they would lose without it. Phelps lost to a German the next year when he wasn’t wearing the suit.
My bad Olympics opinion is that you should only be allowed one medal per games. Let more people have fun Michael, damn
Just swim faster than him, duhhhhh

Basically everyone was wearing it. Everyone else in the pool was wearing it too.

Do you think he wouldn’t have won without the suit?
and that’s exactly why he doesn’t deserve it.
Brother you take eight of his medals away he still has 20 medals. You fucking clowns trying to trash Michael Phelps. My God.
relax meng, it’s just a meme.
Nobody is trying to trash Michael Phelps. This post is literally a comparison of medal counts.
