He just dominates that sport. It was supposed to be Gatlin's time, but Bolt was just too big for him to overcome. Gatlin choked to Bolt in the 100m Finals, Bolt was a deserving winner but Gatlin folded when he saw Bolt making his push. Gatlin's form over those last few meters was the difference. And in the 200m Final, Bolt just destroyed the field and made it look easy.
I want to believe he's clean. Innocent until proven guilty. He's such a historically great athlete. On the shortlist of best since Jordan.

S. Williams
Lebron
Messi.
and some of them may be too favorable.
S Williams hasn't been a top 100 tennis player during her reign. No way is she on that list.
Not sure why you singled out S.Williams since she's been about as dominant as a player goes in her respective sport.
Quote:
Serena Jameka Williams (born September 26, 1981)[1] is an American professional tennis player who is ranked No. 1 in women's singles tennis. The Women's Tennis Association (WTA) has ranked her world No. 1 in singles on six separate occasions. She became the world No. 1 for the first time on July 8, 2002, and achieved this ranking for the sixth time on February 18, 2013.[4] Williams has spent 255 weeks overall as the WTA ranked #1 as of August 24, 2015, placing her 4th on the List of WTA number 1 ranked players. On July 13, 2015 she marked the first time in WTA history that the No. 1 player had more than twice as many points as No. 2.[5] She is the reigning champion of the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, U.S. Open, WTA Tour Championships and Olympic women's singles and doubles. Williams is regarded by some commentators, sports writers, and current and former players as the greatest female tennis player of all-time.[a]
Williams holds the most major singles, doubles, and mixed doubles titles combined amongst active players, male or female. Her record of 36 major titles puts her fifth on the all-time list and first of the open era with: 21 in singles, 13 in women's doubles, and two in mixed doubles. She is the most recent player, male or female, to have held all four major singles titles simultaneously (2002–03 and 2014–15), and the fifth woman ever to do so. She is also the most recent player, together with her sister Venus Williams, to have held all four Grand Slam women's doubles titles simultaneously (2009–10).
Her total of 21 Grand Slam singles titles is third on the all-time list behind Margaret Court (24) and Steffi Graf (22),[15] and second in the Open Era, behind only Graf.[15] She is the only tennis player—female or male—to have won singles titles at least six times in three of the four Grand Slam tournaments.
She has won 13 Grand Slam doubles titles with her sister Venus and the pair are unbeaten in Grand Slam tournament finals.[16] Williams is also a five-time winner of the WTA Tour Championships.[17] The arrival of the Williams sisters has been credited with launching a new era of power tennis in the women's game.[18][19][20][21] Williams has won four Olympic gold medals, one in women's singles and three in women's doubles, an all-time record shared with her sister Venus Williams.[22][23]
No...wait...I know why you singled her out. Nevermind. Link - ( New Window )
when history above shows she's behind Margaret Court and Stef Graf.
Not really...Messi was put on, and we can argue that Pale should be on that list. In the end, the reasoning radar gave was shit. Your reasoning is far more valid.
Eh...it took some dedication to find the thread! I'm still not deleting it...I've not!! Ahahaha
Nope...you give Asians a bad name

Are they "Since Jordan" too, as was initially posited?
