I say Phelps by quite a bit. He did something that collectively is going to be insanely hard to beat. Spitz's 7 golds stood for decades. Now someone has to take 9 to top Phelps. He also beat the lifetime golds won and is now only a couple medals away from having the most total medals won in a career.

So what if records were being broken right and left. That is irrelevant. Winning the race is what matters. Records are secondary. Phelps won 8 of them with a few in such a dramatic fashion that will never be forgotten.
