Kerley didn't perform too sluggish. I was disappointed with Omanyala. All that just to lose by a meter. Where is that 100m start and finish? Bromell is rusty, but I need to see more of his races later in the season. Simbine was overlooked in this race. Tebogo had a nice finish not even going to lie. I know I discussed this on twitter but still 😆

It must be a slow track.

The time was a MR. What does that tell you about this track? The only thing that matters is they all showed up and they all got SMOKED. Kerley the Conqueror claims another country. Florence IT is next. Will Jacobs duck Kerley on his home soil??? The world wants to know.

@@Pumpxkin Omanyala was talking so much about focusing on his own lane then ended up look at fred mid race😂😂😂😂 I knew Simbine would do well. Hes often overlooked but hes ran 9.92 already. Couldn't count him out. Just didn't expect him to beat Omanyala.

@@SPIDERM0OSE Probably. This was a MR. But even in terms of how the race went I don't think anybody raced that well. Fred was twitching and his start was meh. And its pretty obvious where everyone else went wrong. Simbine was the only person who I think had a smooth race from start to finish but he just isn't the beast that Kerley is.

Hes a race horse, plain n simple.

Considering Jacobs’ 60m start and top end speed, I think he would’ve won against this field. People forget that Jacobs ran a faster time in the Olympics finals than Fred did in the WC finals. He’s also a 60m indoor champion in 2022 and silver medalist in 2023. Barring injury, he might shock us all in Budapest

@@Brave-828that top end hasn’t been there since the injury honestly and Kerleys top end is second to only Noah lyles rn so I’d say Kerley would’ve still won if jacobs was there

@@Brave-828don’t forget Kerley has the faster pb also in more recent times

@Terry 949 Why are you spreading wrong information & lying right now? Marcell Jacob's time in the Olympics was in fact 9.80 for the final. Fred Kerley's time for the Semi's & Final was 9.76!!!!! Do you even watch or attend these Track & Field Event? Don't you ever disrespect Fred Kerley. Bro worked to hard for people like you to sit on the internet and fabricate misinformation & lies. Have a Blessed Day🙌🏿

He slowed down because he realized he wasn't gonna win. It reminds me of Asafa Powell back in the days, hopefully he doesn't turn this into a habit like Asafa did.

@@augustusfreeman4032 It shows mental immaturity as he's had things his own way for too long and he does not know how to fully exert his best efforts. Reminds me of someone who would eventually become the best sprinter among the men.

Bromell looked rusty AF. His top end speed was pretty much nonexistent

@@vernonfrance2974 Bolt as a youngster never slowed down in any race in a final. He ran 19.93, 19.88, 19.75 running all out each time, he wasn't a showboater at all back then, stop revising history.

You re a such a sore loser,how do you hate on someone who doesn't even know ypu

Underrated comment

Nice info!

Good info Andrew .Thanks.

this would imply there is something not quite right in the track physics whether it has to do with grip or rebound who knows, cheers for the info

Also one other race earlier had -1.8m/s headwind so there was quite the wind jumping around on the stadium and NOT the +2.0 m/s one. The 110m hurdles field had an epic field as well and had 3 restarts due to the stadium ppl making noise so maybe that was also a factor. (110 hurdles had Grant, Allen (back from NFL), Parchment and a new stellar dude who won)

Why don't you let TRP know where to access a video of his win? I bet they will give at least an 8 minute video.

That's awesome.... do you his time?? Been a big fan of Laird's for awhile now and I'm happy he's back and getting his fitness and form back.👍

He hasn’t even equaled his best. Time in college.

@keketsomegaB358...I don't think a lot of people would agree with you on this statement. You have totally ignored what Frankie Fredericks has done for Namibia? Akani is very good but like many others, he was born in the wrong era.

@@errolsimmonds4133 here am talking about consistency. I know Fredericks was the best but he was not consistent like Akani

@errol simmonds I watched frank Frederick's here in South Africa where he competed before going to America. This was his high school days. He was a great sprinter, possibly better than Akani. Great physique for a 200m runner, 5 ft 11 and I think only about 70 kg. Maybe two or three more kg. There some videos of him running in south africa a on internet, Gregorio Sport might be the site. He was a skinny kid, with beautiful running form. Do you know that in late 60s SA had a great sprinter, Paul Nash, equalled world record 4 times. He was one of the great sprinters of late 60s. His career was ended by arthritis at age 21, 22. SA was obviously banned from olympics due to apartheid politics. But SA was in those days not banned from world athletics. He beat everyone world wide, British champ once or twice. Only race he lost in his career was once to Jim Hines in America. He was only 20 at the time. 1967. Also south african Reggie Walker won Olympic title , 100m in 1908. If you american you probably never heard of these sprinters. Roy b, CapeTown south africa 🇿🇦

@errol simmonds Paul Nash , now he was born in the wrong Era. Might have been the best of the lot. Roy b, CapeTown south africa 🇿🇦

He has a sciatic nerve problem from his long jumper years. He has a chiropratic in his team.

@@christiantagliaferro4123 thats great to hear & i understand

Who tf cares about USA vs JAM rivalry anymore? Jus wanna see somebody else speed dgaf what country. In fact it's good for track that athletes from Italy and Africa are in the convo.

@@fredball8240 You alright Fred.???

The Rabat race had the gold and bronze medalist from 2022, the current WL and the U20 gold medalist. You round that out with perennial contender Simbine, 5th place in 2022 and Yohan Blake. That was the real money race. The runners who ducked that showed their true character. That's the race you cover story wise. LA Grand Prix was and is an afterthought.

@@LoneGunmanProd You cover BOTH.... especially the race that produces the fastest time. It also featured a very strong field. The silver medalist in Bracy from 2022 and former 100m world champion in Coleman. Plus a few others... Of course you cover the Kerley race but I was simply saying the other big 100m race, the faster of the 2, should be covered as well. I mean, if he can make an 9 minute video about Matt Boling running 20.1... in a preliminary 200m round, he should make time to cover a 9.8 100m finish and slight upset. That's all...

Me too....

He did win gold in relays though If he was to win an individual medal it should've been the last Olympic Just like how De grasse finally got his gold medal too

He’s not in the shape he used to be in I think he can get it back but he’s gotta train like Fred and get back to strength training your only as fast as you can keep that speed the speed is there but his strength is lacking.

Sorry guys... it's all downhill from here. You don't come back from his injury and ever be the same. Sometimes we have to be humbled. I wonder if he ever thinks what if he had stuck it out with coach Mills?

Good luck on him breaking his record

That fight has to live up to expectations, we've waited for too long 😂

No pressure on the young boy, he is coming fine, he is still learning and getting a experience don't forget he is a teenager

@@brianorefilweotsogile1081 he turn 20 in like 10 days lmao

@@juliahertz1788 so! still he is young

that's why I was rooting for him. out of the little I've seen from him, he's consistent and his acceleration is fast as balls

No one can beat Kerley this year

Kerley's movements did not affect the other athletes..they didn't even see them. Overall, the race was nqothing spectacular to see. I know 2 Jamaicans who are running faster times, so is Christian Coleman. Its still early, but 9.94 does not medal at WC.

@@johnkennedy8640 The track is known for being not that fast also Kerley has already ran a 9.88

Kerley isn't all that. He just had a slightly better day than the others. He ain't a great champion and really needs to just shut up and run. He will choke sooner or later. That's his record. Just like used to call Mike Rodgers Mr. 4th place Kerley will find a way to choke. He is not the great 100m man he thinks he is he's just gotten a few lucky breaks to run against others on days they were not at their best. It makes him look good but he isn't even close to the fastest

👍

He's an underdog so he won't attract alot of views, but I was wondering the same. Sha Carri and Ta Lou didn't even race in the final and a video was uploaded about them.

@@khalidpryce8972 so only the big stars will get recognition for their performance while the rising stars get ignored, that's not fair

He clearly isn’t going to which is too bad because that was a more impressive race. This one had hype but it was disappointing.

​@Track Boss make your own channel

@trackboss9121 Now that you've talked about it what's the issue? You know how amazed TRP gets. He's probably even more stunned than you are and it might take him some time to get it together enough to put it on the internet.

I love this bold stand! Competition!!! Unlike the NBA

I could see simbine medaling this year

I think Tebogo made a good accounting of himself considering the field.

😂😂😂

He's still heavy right now.

😂

These are basically their real times.

Yeah exactly. Times done during the year at local US tracks constantly feel much faster (in fact, a bit “too” fast). Strange how all these US athletes doing sensational times in March-May perform constantly much worse in int tracks from Late May onwards and are not able to replicate those times… 🤔

The fastest man in the world is an informal title given to the current world 100m champ, which is Kerley.

Yellow

He stopped moving before the gun.

But he didn't moved his feet.

😂😂 there's no 9.65 anytime soon

Not disappointing at all, Fred has been winning a lot lately. This was expected

I thought it was great. What were you expecting?

A lot of more runners were predicted to run under 10 seconds, it was still a great race I was personally just expecting more.

Slow track

But for some reasons, it also seems tracks in the US are particularly “faster”. As soon as US runners run outside their country tracks (whether in Europe or MENA) times go dramatically up.

He's running with a "career ending" injury? 🤣🤣🤣

He’s just old

@@d1ja6 it’s obvious he’s referring to when he was in his prime

It can be Jacobs will showing up in the next Diamond League in Florence, Italy.

Yeah the generation after a WR holder is always less interesting. The 100m is only interesting on the Women's side now unfortunately.

Just because it is not near the WR and testing is better does not mean it is not exciting. Plenty of great sprinters and competition. If this can't be exciting for you there might be something wrong with you not the sport.

@@Temme142 but look at that field, 4 of the sprinters had a 9.7 pb, and look at the result.

@@veridicusmaximus6010 who mentioned anything about a WR? You man have to read.

@@JT-km6th Adam did and UB is the WR holder so if you mention him as the standard by which you are judging then the standard is the WR. So the idea that those that don't approach it are not exciting is ridiculous in my view. I can read just fine!
