I dont think we should really be comparing athletes from different generations anyway, I've always found that quite stupid. Like Pele vs Messi...who cares? Merckx vs Pogačar...who cares? What matters is the individual's performance within the context of that time period, not whether they are better or worse than someone from a completely different decade.
