lol. If anything Bolt is modest. When asked why he held back on breaking the record in the 100 he said I wasn't concerned about that, winning was enough for me.
I can't stand the hype about Phelps either. People calling him the best athlete ever is like calling Tiger Woods the best athlete ever for having the most PGA wins in a single season.
