Merckx’s dominance in cycling is unparalleled.

One of his most remarkable achievements was winning the Tour de France five times (1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, and 1974). His aggressive racing style and relentless determination earned him the nickname “The Cannibal,” as he seemed to devour his opponents with unmatched ferocity.
