With everything put into context, the most exciting swimming race ever.
Kirkola this comes a very close second to the 4x100 free from Beijing.
Definitely. Although given Rowdy's lack of excitement here, it doesn't seem like it is.
Personally my favorite 100 fly race of his! Even more than Beijing!!
This race showed the potential Michael had as a sprinter...he usually will turn in 24s the first 50, in here he turned 23.3!! Thats insane for a swimmer that's not a sprinter.
Cavic was right, this totally put swimming back on the map. Sometimes it's not just about who wins, it's about the competition itself. This was awesome, and it was what made me start watching swimming again. Good job both Phelps and Cavic. And Cavic was a great sport about it too.
Phelps is the GOAT, but people don't give Cavic enough credit. He is an outstanding swimmer and a freak of nature. He did, after all, go under 50 seconds in 100 LCM fly. He was just unfortunate to have been out-touched by Phelps 2 years in a row. However, keep in mind that if there had been no Phelps, people would probably refer to Cavic as a legend, as they did Crocker, once upon a time.
+Americashley Ahahah
Harrison Gu be was not out touched in Beijing it was actually a tye it was just phelps force in to the wall
Collin Wharton Phelps won in Beijing by 0.01... otherwise Cavic would have the gold medal too.
It’s not about 0.01 ppl, you just have to understand how much of a monster Phelps is, psychologically speaking. He is a winner .. he just believes deep down that he is gotta win no matter what and does it all the time, even when not being in his best shape.
Nothing but respect for him.
.. Even notice his body language right before swimmin any final, he looks incredibly stressed even though he won many finals before, it simply shows how much he cares of every single race .
He is an example to follow either in sports or any other field.
Harrison Gu silly statement. By your statement, the 3rd placed guy can say if it wasn’t for Phelps and Cavic, everyone would be talking about him.
when you beat world record but still lose
To me, this may actually have been the most satisfying swim of Phelps' career.
Obviously the 18 gold medals, and especially the 8 in Beijing were special. He would probably say that the 400 Free Relay in Beijing was the best. But this one was about as personal as you ever see swimming rivalries get.
In a sport in which you literally cannot talk trash to each other during the event, this was intense stuff based on all the controversy about their race a year before in Beijing and Cavic talking shit about Phelps ever since. Add to that all the intrigue about Cavic supposedly having a superior suit to Phelps, and Michael touching the wall first had to be incredibly satisfying for him.
You can see in his reaction that it's not so much celebration as it is defiance. After a year of shit-talking, Cavic tries to finally be a good sport after losing again and Phelps is just like "Nah."
It should have be one gold less in Beijing, since Cavic really touched the tile first.
+afghaaj Cavic fucked up the finish in Beijing. He lifted his head up going into the wall. Phelps finished in a streamline. If Cavic kept his head down, or did an extra half stroke, he would have won.
+David C (river1216) site your sources young man "The Golden Boy, whatever time he said it in the vid"
+David C (river1216) 😒.
God bless!
Is it just me, or can you watch this race over and over, and still feel the adrenalin? This is Phelps at his absolute best!!
For the fly events at least... the suit controversy fired him up
+Mason Sommer He had the same suit that he had in beijing, cavic had new supersuit
No it is not you this race is about 10 years old now and it still gives me goosebumps watching it.
Yesssss
Šupku američki i slep bi video da ste pokrali Cavica. Slavite kradju bando lopovska.
1:15 lochte looks like a surfing bro-dude stoner there XD
Because he is
Jeah
It was amazing race,unbelivable...Cavic had a big advantage at 50m,so I just still cant belive how Phelps reached him and won the race...but I like and respect all great sportmans,Phelps is one of them....and Milorad Cavic is serbian legend,Im so proud with him
I feel that this is one of his defining moments.
does it really matter who is better i mean realy these guys accoplished something that most of us can just dream of congratulations to Pheps and Cavic from Serbia !
Of course it matters. Do you think they spend years training to just say I’m okay coming 2nd or worse? There can only be one winner.
It does really matter... especially to these guys.
Cavic was born and raised in California. Through his family background he chose to swim for Serbia.
Even Cavic couldn't help but smile. Amazing swim, Michael!
I went to HS with Cavic. He was such a beast. Used to swim butterfly underwater at swim meets and kill everybody by half a pool length around 12 yards. Go Cavic!
The man's reaction next to Phelps's mom was incredible!
@1:15 is that Ryan Lochte?
Yea buddy that's Ryan
I've seen this race countless time def one of the best races of all time
hehe thank you :) Loved your Phelps video on your page... i fav'd it :)
ОВДЕ ЈЕ ЧАВИЋ БИО ПРВИ,А НЕ ТАЈ ВАШ фелпс!
Није у овој трци него годину дана раније на ОИ у Пекингу, али ок.
good sportsmanship by cavic, damn phelps really wanted that race
not good sportsmanship by cavic...cavic had been talking shit about Phelps for over a year up to that point is why Phelps ignored him after the race
They are both cool. The media loves creating "us vs them" narratives to create heroes and villains. 1:34, Phelps didn't ignore him.
because of the greatness of phleps I keep on watching this video until now i am still amaze wow
Cavic's timing was so unlucky. He was such a great 100m butterflier. He deserved a gold medal at some point.
...phelps then takes of the million caps he has on...
the guy in the red shirt behind phelps mom,just hilarious
indeed
i was jumping off the seat when i was watching this. it was amazing
i must say that , that is AMAZING
That "HE DID IT" would have been quite awkward if cavic would have won
Rowdy could tell he touched first.
Cavic's face was priceless when he saw the board: "Are you fucking kidding me?"
1:17
I don't know man... Phelps practically lived in the pool his whole life. He never took a day off, not Christmas, not his birthday, nothing. The only break he's ever taken was after the Olympics after literally swimming most of his life.
You can say he has the body for it and the genetics, but I really do think his #1 attribute is the amount of effort and time he puts into what he does.
Those floatation suits made a mockery of those wr's.
Whenever you feel like your being bullied by someone, don't feel too bad, always remember there is Milorad Cavic, dude probably has nightmares about Phelps every night.
Cavic touched the tile first in Beijing
+afghaaj yes, Cavic is first!!!(Phelps sucks)
+afghaaj Cavic touched first, but phelos pressed the tile first than cavic
+Enaa XD Phelps sucks?😂 tell that to his 28 Olympic medals
afghaaj You're not American, are you?
"YES CAVIC SETTLES FOR SILVER AGAIN"! AHAHAHA
it is funny that for the last 5strokes Cavic did not breath and Phelps still breath every stroke and he still won, so excellent Michael Phelps
I love swimming with every breath in my body. Admired Phelps even before he became popular. But living and studying in Serbia has led to appreciate their culture, they've come a long way and Cavic is a perfect example of devotion. Phelps and Cavic are Awesome, World Class Swimmers, I wish i had half the power and knowledge they have
US MOTHER_LOVING A. Best military,Best athletes. The BEst.
cavic is from my country snd ha was first you can see on one video that
stfu serbitch
+Fatijon Zeqiri fuck you
he was first to 2nd place.
Bjanka Stojanovic phelps won
Snd (and) ha (he)
i admire athletes' determination
I do agree that it's a combination of talent and drive to be the best.
We are lucky to witness in our lives the greatest swimmer in history HANDS DOWN
No Cavic is the best
Slavisa Marinkovic lol
The best? How many medals did he won ? Did you known how many gold medals Phelps won in 5 olimpics? That means he is the best
Does Cavic have 23 gold medals lol. Phelps Goat.
I spoke to MP in April when visited my pool for training camp. I told him to go get it in the 100m Butterfly. He smiled and gave me an autograph. Go MP, you make us proud.
Almost to one million!!!
i love his reaction :D
the best swimmer in the world rips bongs. what else can i say this guy is the man.
lol, the guy cheering to Phelps' mom's right gets me every damn time
Michael Phelps is just brilliant - what more can I say.
Incredible.
best swimm race ever from the greatest of this sport,the Shark from Baltimora
The last 25m phelps turns into a different beast on every butterfly race
Michael Phelps GOAT in every sport.
Michael was feeling himself omg I love!
incredible
gracias estuvo bacan
There will still be sports events, it's not over.
Holy damn, I remember watching this live. It was the most intense 49.82 seconds.
Wow it looks like this time Phelps actually won! I am impressed!
What is amazing is that he is still young. He's got alot more medals to win before he is done.
Lochte with his 'JEAH' cap, that made my day haha. But, it is great to see his friendship. The two best swimmers in history, great rivals, but over his rivalry is their friendship, good example for the entire sport world. You don't see that everyday.
UNREAL!
you said it best.
Amen
ill never get over that nowadays Cavics' opening 50 is what wins world champs now in the 50 fly (besides Dressel 22.3 in 19')
This is what the BEST of the BEST... Michael Phelps Phorever..!!! (:
FOREVER man :D
thx
that man is a beast
geez, hes a beast '-'
michael phelps need to write another book just for this race .
Once again Cavic breaks the world record in the 95m butterfly.
THISE IS THE BEST VIODEO I EVER WATCH ZACHARY MY SCHOOL ACSP YOU RORK PHELPS
This was so good for swimming, although a little bitterness between the two, that sort of rivalry is what generates outside/ casual interest in the sport. Perhaps they could do with a little more of this today.
phelps is the best swimmer of all time, and no one can deny this. :)
love him!
He did a 50.90 in the heats (tied with Tyler McGill), and a 50.48 in the semi. Cavic did 50.56 in the heats and 50.01 in the semi
lol at the end cavic has a death stare towards micahel when they shake hands haha
i watched this love and i was up screaming and yelling for phelps!!!!! love love love phelps
Both amazing races swimmers and represent their countries well, I hope this suite controversy can be worked out soon so we can go back to just enjoying the sport.
Michael Phelps is an empire in the pool.lol
no matter what they say about michael phelps he´s great. everyone have mistakes nobody is perfect. with the mistakes we made we learned .
nice said man!!!
Not into swimming but that was pretty sweet.
Best of the best right there.
earlier, phelps lost in the 200m freestyle to a swimmer using the special suit while he was using his normal suit. people were saying that phelps only lost because he wasn't using the special suit. so before this race, cavic was doing an interview about how he would buy phelps that special suit so that phelps wouldn't have an excuse if he lost. but phelps won with his normal suit so thats y u see him in the end showing off his suit.
yup that's him, you can see a clip here around somewhere. Ryan and Ricky ( Berens ) jumping up and down cheering hard for Mike :)
no matter how fast phelps goes fish are a whole different level lmao.
as far as I've heard Cavic accepted defeat in 2008, he said it himself
Epic win :D
Cannot believe this was the last individual world record Phelps has ever set after going about 9 years setting every single world record in the books.
MONSTER!!!!!
kinda cool how the 3 lcm fly wr holders all met in the middle in this race and medaled
Phelps is a monster on the water! How is it possible?!
I like haw after the race, everyone else is half dead, Michel is like, "hey guys want to do that again? I wasn't trying."
Michael Phelps has legit beer pong skillz
the guy next to phelps mom is having the time of his life.
Michael is a beast!!! I don't care what anyone says or what he did, you can't top him!!!
respect
Phelps é simplesmente mágico!!!
Same in 2024
I love how proudly he bang his chest; you go Phelps! That's right!
I won't deny that he is a good swimmer, but no better example of a sore winner.
epic comeback
Check phelps at the turn...staring down cavic....such control.....perfect racing
we will see in few days in ol. games in final
Water polo & Swim Team are THE BEST SPORTS
no one can get his name right. its INSANE Phelps!!
That was amazing! I can't wait 'til 2011 to see him live in action in Shanghai! OMG. Cavic, you just got PWNED. Big time.
Phelps is a beast!
