The post got netizens buzzing and has collected numerous comments.
Some of the comments from the netizens are:
People wouldn’t pay to see a swimming competition but they will pay to see you fight him in the octagon
Not sure about the race but both of ur arm flappings are pretty awesome tho. Not sure who’s better. LOL
Don’t tempt him cause the crazy SOB will take you up on it, just give him 8 weeks training and he will come all guns blazing hahaha
This should be very interesting. Looks like Conor is going to be in every professional sport that exists.
Truly, Phelps, with his 23 gold medals, is never a stranger to such sporting event. He actually participated at the Discovery’s Shark Week special, where he lost to a Great White Shark.
Based on the report, this match would most likely not materialize.
