  • why would he come back retarded

  • @Eden2089 I saw a Tennis Channel bio a few years ago WITH an interview w/ Bjorn & his elderly parents admitting he was broke & living with them. Maybe things have changed for him, which I hope. No need to snarl & wet yourself over a YouTube comment...go to Ikea & buy yourself a life....

  • @viddymeenow Björn Borg does not live with his parents. He lives with wife and child in a huge mansion. Stop bullshitting. I live in the same city, I know.

  • hehehehhe he's comming back!

  • Don't start this Thorpe vs Phelps crap again, they are both amazing athletes, You can't compare them they focus on different strokes and distances. The only one they really had in common was 200m freestyle and Thorpe always beat Phelps in it. There's no better or worse swimmer, Thorpe is an amazing person, an amazing athlete and the world of sport will miss his grace and personality. He's truly a king of swimming as a sport

  • Love Ian Thorpe--but to retire at 25?? Bjorn Borg did that--now he's bankrupt & living with his parents in Stockholm....

  • @samuelflower phelps said that ian critized him but he lied.phelps has always been jealous because ian is handsome and cute , phelps looks like a monster hahaha.ian was already a multimillionaire at 17 but phelps is not rich .phelps has nothing except his medals , phelps has never been an idol and will NEVER be.ian is an idol in australia and in asia.phelps the monster, he is the ugliest and most devilish man i have ever seen .hahhahhhaian thorpe THE BEST FOREVER.

  • @samuelflower you criticizes ian because he is the best and he is cute sexy nice.phelps is a devilish guy, he slept with prostitutes took drug , was arrested by the police , you support phelps because you' re like him.thorpe beat phelps in athens that' s why you' re happy he is retired.but ian is very famous in his country ,nobody knows phelps in the us ,phelps is NOTHING and i hope this devilish guy will go to hell with you.moreover ian has never criticized phelps
