@lleosupercluster I know what you mean and i definetely agree its just that Armstrong tends manipulates everyone onto his side and threatens others who speak out against him. However most people on here probably admire Eddy Merckx because he raced to win all the time, whereas Armstrong only focused on the tour. Its not the doping people look at, its the desire to win ( however its obvious they both doped its just that Merckx had the desire to win everything which made him a greater champion)

@mpl1700 Merckx rode (and won) about every race there was. Lance - apart from his early early years when he competed in other races as well - practically lived solely for the Tour de France.
IMO, that's just a sign that riders now have become more specialised. Classics specialists with a more sturdy build so to speak won't win a GT, nor will a butterfly like Contador be able to lift off and win on the cobbles of say P-R.
