MrsChamp606 553 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Anyone else watch it?? Although he is an over confident clown I love him! He makes athletics fun and appealing and I like to think I can talk about him setting the world alight in my era! If he repeats Beijing in London he wil be an all time great.

spade 224 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 He's been beaten twice now in recent meetings, is he losing his touch or is he just holding back waiting for the olympics. Not long now and we'll find out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greengrass 202 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I thought he came across well in it, does,nt take himself too seriously and is a lot more entertaining than most athletes. Fancy him to win at the Olympics also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gonetoearth 5,144 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 He is a genetic freak and I don't mean that in a bad way he is all most perfect in a genetic sence of the word Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,798 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Did anyone see the two races he recently lost in? Was he really trying to win or just do enough? Highly conditioned athlete training to peak at the right time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the 100 meter record will stay as that for a very long time to come. He might of lost a couple recently but know ones gonna be perfect every and cone out a winner, Not at that level any way . For me I think he will get gold he's only 25 and has years left in his legs. You could see in races last year he wasn't really trying he just got a head and did enough just to win, easing off most time in the last 30 meters. the Olympics for any athelte is a special moment I bet my right leg he wont have that approach then 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wont our young kid i forget his name now the one who recently won the junior worlds be running against Bolt and the like.....think he did 10.05 the other week which i know wont get him in the medals but might get him in the final ?.......Played footie for Dagenham & Redbridge and only been a sprinter for a year or so....his name escapes me now. Some athlete that Bolt...im inclined to agree with Born Hunter.....the top athletes at the highest level of any sport want to peak for the big competition and peaking is all about timing.....so i wouldnt pay much attention to races he might of lost beforehand.

Born Hunter 17,798 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I can't remember exactly what he said in response to getting beaten recently but it was something like "when my coach is worried then I will worry, my coach isn't worried....". What channel was this programe on? anyone? I wouldn't mind catching it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
