Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor is happening....and now Michael Phelps vs. Shark? This is shaping up to be one of the greatest years of head-to-head competition in the history of planet earth. Before any more of my confused excitement jumps off of my keyboard and onto this article I'll let the official press release do the rest of the talking.

News Network Press Release: They are one of the fastest and most efficient predators on the planet: sharks. He is our greatest champion to ever get in the water: Michael Phelps. 39 world records. 23 Olympic golds. But he has one competition left to win. An event so monumental no one has ever attempted it before. The world's most decorated athlete takes on the ocean's most efficient predator: Phelps vs. Shark -- the race is on! Produced by Peacock Productions.

WOW.

The closest thing we could come up with to this is Shaq vs. Phelps, so feel free to use this video to get hyped.
