Tyson is still one of the best - even if he is done now.
George Foreman is one of the best too.. but I dont want to see him fighting now.
I think what Bolt did will live on... Im not saying I know the history of track back to front, all I can say is that in 30 years of being alive and watching every Olympics since 1988, that's the first time a 100 metre race has made me stand out my chair and left me shaking all over...
Of course Ive got excited watching races, for example some of the mens coxless 4's, but watching what the lightening bolt did to that field wasnt just excitement it was shock and awe.... to go under 9.7, to win an Olympic Gold by at least 3 metres more than Ben Johnson (and dance down the last 10 metres laughing),and then turn up a few days later and knock off Michael Johnsons 200 record into a 0.9 headwind... its just out of this world. Two other guys went under 20 seconds in that 200 (I think) - and they were NOWHERE, just NOWHERE. Its ridiculous... and when he's done, he just has a little dance!
