Milorad (Mike) Cavic Offers Left Testicle To Rematch Michael Phelps In 100-Meter Butterfly

By Ryan Corazza

Everyone will remember Michael Phelps and his eight medals and his new condos and all his nice endorsement deals from the Beijing Olympics, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. But what about Mike Cavic?

Not sure who he is? Me either. That is, until, our Beijing bureau sent over this video of the Serbian swimmer lamenting his one-hundredth of a second loss to the American superstar in the 100-meter butterfly. Oh yeah: that dude.

Some highlights:

On what he would give up for a rematch:
“I would give my left testicle.”

On Phelps: “When you think a guy’s unbeatable, you have this fear inside of you. Every time you race him you become more and more OK with with racing that guy. You come closer and closer and think: ‘This guy’s not an immortal. He’s human.’ Once you get that inside of you, you get pretty comfortable. The more and more I race him the more I feel like I can beat him. I want some.”

On what’s next:
“I ain’t going to Disneyland.”

I like this guy. One qualm though: why your left testicle, Mike? As a southpaw, I take some offense. Couldn’t we just have said a testicle?

If there’s one thing I do not support, it’s testicle discrimination.
