Best Answer

they were different..

Stephen Roche accomplished what only Eddy Merckx has done before or since..the tripple crown...winning the Tour de France, the Giro d'italia, and the world championship all in the same year.

Sean Kelly was a V famous and highly regarded classics rider, and won many of the famous classics races such as the Paris Roubaix which he dominated for years.

He also won the green (sprinters/[points) jersey in the tour de France for 5 or 6 years..maybe more.
