  Well, if people start claiming TP is the GOAT (something that may be a bit divided along generational fans), that assumes comparison and invites counter. DV is obviously overdoing the rhetoric to make his points (like people say they’re 200% sure), and not in the nicest of ways but points he does have, nobody ever dominated across the board like EM, all today’s stars have weak points, he didn’t. What’s more, all today’s stars program and limit their schedules for results if not wins (yes TP made a big effort this year but then declined a GT), whereas EM didn’t ever avoid any race even when odds were against him. As for the Belgian aspect, I remind you DV and his brother were EM’s arch rivals prone to « dirty » tricks to beat him, the fact he’s putting things back into perspective is hardly to do with nationality, it’s simply the result of years of having to watch, suffer and admit the guy was simply so much better. Once the rivalry was over that was just pointless to deny and wouldn’t have been any different if it had been an Italian, French or Dutch rider

  WTF’s a “looser”?

  He had a go at Remco too though. This is really just a retired has-been mouthing off to get attention. Also, it's completely unnecessary to compare riders from different eras, because it is literally impossible to compare - it would only be fair if GOAT riders could race each other at the peak of their powers, which is obviously impossible.

  It's lovely how belgians stress so much about loosing their status on cycling.

  He's a bit fed up with the estrogen laden snow flakes in "men's" cycling.

  Primoz didn't want to be speered from a Palestinian flag pole.

  One thing that is very unfair to Pog is that he is being criticized for comparisons to eddie merckx when he in fact himself has steadily paid homage to Merckx as the greatest and dismissed the idea of comparison entirely and humbly. Say whatever you want to but Pog is still a great champion and has done nothing to deserve criticism in this particular way.

  Ouch !! but good on him for voicing his opinion others are suss of some modern riders

  Just because they're not interested in catching top riders anymore doesn't mean there ANY chance Pogi and all the rest are clean.

  There is no need to call anyone dummy, so calm down. I’m paraphrasing what del Toro himself said that day, so chill out and stop being rude.
