Phelps is unbelievable. He should be tested for banned substances. 11 gold medals and most in world record breaking time. Was he born in water?

yeah in 10years time they might possibly detect his drugs,which will be then visible to medical "eyes" just as birds learn to fly without perching ,so also hunters learn to shoot without aiming  |

@Somze don't forget Phelps is an american. I hope you understand Looking at it from the other angle, it might be God-given talent. |

Chambers? Nawa. The guy is not even American. Dwain Chambers is a Brit? Cheats will eventually be caught. I doubt Phelps is a cheat. He would have been caught after '04 (where he also dominated) if that was the case. I agree the Marion Jones fiasco was embarrassing for US athletics, but to judge the whole US by the few cheats is unfair. |

The guy has done it again and in world record time . . . again. Michael Phelps wins his 6th gold medal in China. I think the guys at NASA should test his blood for strange substances. Too many Americans have deceived us in Athletics, I hope he's not one of them. It's just too easy for him. His blood should be stored till we have a better technology to prove he's cheating, but until then . . . The guy is phenomenal. |
