If he wins the 50, i don’t think he will. If he doesn’t, maybe for the next WC and that’s it.

He could definitely compete after Rio in my opinion. Usually sprinters can still be competitive when they are old (Mark Foster at Manchester 2008).

I don’t care if people think he is old, or past his prime. I think its cool he loves swimming and wants to keep going. keep rockin it.

I really don’t see why Cielo would project himself so far ahead ? many things can change between now and September 2016 – just after Rio .
