It's Jordan Burroughs for me......he's and amazing person and one of the greatest ambassadors for wrestling that America has ever had. Listen to his "Coffee with Jordan Burroughs" on Flo some time.

I'm going with JB this time......I'll go with Katie Ledecky another time. You had to know where I would go with this. Katie Ledecky wins on longevity stats too. She has not lost a 1500 meter race in over a decade, going back to when she was 14. She has the 25 fastest times in history in the 800 meters. And she has 18 of the 25 fastest times in history in the 1500 and 400. Bonkers stats. Sorry, sorry. I forgot my place. Go JB. 1 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you liked JB? If JB wrestled the same number of events as Ledecky swims he would have far fewer Olympic medals as he has qualified for a single Olympics while she has qualified for three. And he would have fewer World golds as 86% of her medals are gold, but only 67% of JB's are gold. Or we could flip it around. If she swam a single event she would have 3 Olympic golds in the 800m (2012, 2016, 2020) to JB's 1 Olympic gold (2012). And she would have 5 World golds in 5 attempts (swimming has Worlds in odd years only, except 2021 - they had it in 2022 instead, you know, cuz Covid) to JB's 6 golds in 9 attempts.

jross Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 (edited) She has zero WC medals in the 50m freestyle event compared to JB's nine WC medals in wrestling. Katie is fantastic! However, the number of medal opportunities is bananas for comparison's sake.
