That's how to win

Tyson coming for 100 metre glory. Would be a true fairytale story and cement his place as the GOAT sprinter

C'mon Tyson

Gay only managed a winning time of 10.03.. needs to step it up or Bolt will destroy him

Novo He has already ran 9.86 and has only RAN 3 RACES IN A YEAR AND A BIT and unlike Bolt can handle pressure. If not for the injuries Gay would be the fastest man in the world FACT he ran the second quickest time ever on one leg

Gay
Blake
Gatlen

Bolt not gonna finish top 3

Well Bolt will run under 10 easily at the Olympics.. Gay will need to do a pb to even get anywhere close to him, Unless Bolt ****s up majorly his chances are slim

Last time they raced and of course when not running against the chockjob Powell Bolt crumbled

And Gay was injured in that race PMSL

More impressive time for you there, when Bolt races like that Gay is just a spectator.

American relay team will take the Jamacians's also

Gay-Gatlen-Bailey-Rodgers vs Bolt-Powell-Blake-Frater

Not a chance not unless they have a race like the GB girls did against USA last year

Novo were you not happy enough being schooled by me in Football and Tennis, i'm not complaining though i am never one to mind whipping out some unbiased education on those who most need it

The relay will probs be the most exciting event will more then likely come down to the Rodgers-Frater split

I have educated you today and when Bolt wins i will be coming back to give you some more education.. just remember that

Oh yeah Sharapova.. GOAT.. good joke that.

Lol Novo you are utterly clueless all your predictions are just black and white you fail to take into account form and matchups.Look no further then your Djok-Fed and Italy-Germany predictions.All you can see is who is better on paper your clueless self cannot account for other factors such as form etc

And after the sprint final you will once again be in utter shock at the depth of my knowledge and understanding of sport

Is there a more likeable guy in the world than Mo Farah?

Ennis smashing the world record and Chernova almost a minute behind her time, great start :worship:

Ennis :worship:

Seriously Ohuruogo, why ease up at the end?! Lost that race. Silly bint

Missed what happened with Ohuruogo.. did she get a fast enough time to go through?
