A day after losing the 200 meter free to Paul Biedermann of Germany, Michael Phelps has begun to make excuses for his loss. Most of the other swimmers including Biedermann have a new more advanced swimsuit that supposedly makes a big difference. Since Phelps is sponsored by Speedo, and the do not produce this suit he was not able to wear it. Phelps states this as the reason for his defeat. Phelps needs to take this defeat like a man and not make excuses, and if he is going to complain to anyone it should be to Speedo. They are the ones who need to keep up with the competition, if there suits are worse than Michael Phelps does worse. Phelps is truly amazing but he needs to take his defeats like a man, and not point the finger at someone else.
This is bullshit. Phelps has every right to complain to everyone. He should have taken that race down. The competition cheated. The race director should have told Phelps that the competition had a better suit, and given him one as good. Come on, Phelps is the best swimmer in the world, he should be the first to have the newest stuff.
