One of the best swimmers in history? Yes. But the greatest athlete? Being dominate in one sport is one thing but could he hop out of the pool, run a half or full marathon and bike 30 miles in the fastest time? I would reserve greatest "Athlete" to a triathlete or decathlete. One who kicks ass at a number of events.
does this really make him "the greatest athlete ever"?
