Jan Switkowski, only 21, going that time with a terrible first 100, and his closing speed was insane, in comparison michael phelps went 1:53.8 at that age, not bad at all. If he works on that first 100 we may have the next great 200 flyer
I don't like the technique of Le Clos. They teach you at a young age to NOT look at your competition. Swim your own race. Yeah duh, it's the Olympics, but you need to have that mental focus. From experience, not looking over at your competition makes you a bit faster and less distracted from your race. I think that's a part of why he lost it.
Agreed. He refers to himself as the best, yet he resembles an 11 year old age grouper when he does that. He would be so much faster if he just swam his own race
It is annoying and he has turned out to be a dick. But it works for him - it motivates him and it's the sole reason he beat Phelps in the 200 in London. I think he's very unprofessional. I despise it when younger athletes claim to be better than a legend who is finishing up his/her career. Like when Nadal or Djokovich beats Federer. But at least they are classy tennis players who respect Federer. And Cseh is total class. LeClos is 7 years younger than Phelps. Hey Chad: win 18 Olympic gold, then we'll talk. OK, I'll forgive the relays since South Africa has little chance. Win 11 individual Olympic gold, then we'll talk. You have 1 so far. Good luck with that.
I feel like Laszlo has always been around :) a great athlete
Laszlo cseh, the Hungarian legend, never got enough credit, truly one of the best of all time
Switkowski's last 25 meters was crazy fast
great victory for cseh, nagyon szép volt jól befütött kazanba.

gianluca urlando is the next great 200 flyer
@@felipemaineri1146 And Kristof Milak
@@jalenstimes7452 kristof milak is the WR holder
he already is the great 200 flyer xD
his finish actually craziest than all others'
never heard of switkowski again
Anyone else thinks Cseh looks like a bald younger brother of phelps
A Murray he looks like Jake Glynhaal in that one war movie Jarhead
I remember this race, not of the winners, but more of how Shields "died" after the last turn. lol
Let’s go Laszlo!
Chad peeking left and right when his head was up above water cost him the gold medal
Le Clos has the best ability to turn on the afterburners when he's behind
I've always liked Cseh! Wasn't his father an Olympic medalist too?
his father swam in 68 and 72 but didnt medal (he also died about a week ago) cseh's great, part of hungary's neverending line of middle distance stars
Switkowski had a Phelps-like finish.
Absence of phelps...
. He did well

u cant tell that
Donabelle Marasigan im a swimmer and you’re not so...
Alyson Scherer it’s not olympics it’s world championship
maybe he got extra motivation looking at opponents
Go Cseh! Such a champion! So sad he hasn't achieved any Olympic golds - very unfair and undeserved.
Because of Phelps.
Annoys the fuck out of me how le clos keeps looking left and right over and over again

Sole reason he beat Phelps is because Phelps mistimed his finish
Brandon Cassady omg its the breathing style you can look left or right if u knew more about swimming u wouldnt have put that comment
Brandon Cassady is right. LeClos wastes time and energy looking at his competitors. It's stupid.
this was a game if you didnt notice :/
Right on Le Clos arrogant face
Why is fuckn LeClos didn't arrogantly shout "Im # 2, Im #2" belittled?
He looks like micheal Phelps, not gunna lie
😊❤
no one likes le clos lmao he's way too full of himself
Phelps would smack him tbh
Milák would smack Phelps tbh
A shark would smack Milák tbh
@@matepapp5820 Léon Marchand in 2 years would smack Milák tbh
Edit: No hate on Milák though
😂 no Phelps he is champion
True , but one thing that impressed me that he’s still swimming at the age of 35 when Phelps has already retired
No Milak is, lmao
