But if he did and he was serious, he would win, if Hans was on board, and if protected like in the past. No question in my mind, in the 100. This guy pretty much JOGGED a 9.8. Nobody else in history, and certainly nobody competing now, was/is close to that. He’s 9.7-low/mid if he comes back seriously and remains uninjured, IMO.
But he won’t. It’s too much work, and there is so much to lose.
yeah. there's no way he will reach his peak levels at the 100/200, but he can definitely give the 400 a try. as a matter of fact, i don't mind seeing a 5K usain bolt. we obviously won't expect him to do well on a pro level, but it would probably be a very interesting journey to watch unfold. like if usain bolt goes "i want to break 16 minutes in the 5k", a bunch of distance runners would probably go bananas and try to break 16 minutes along with him. it would be a win for the running community
I watch the runner mostly to hear him discuss Bekele, who we all know is the world's greatest runner. Is it true Bekele had a divorce like his recent video stated?
So ya think he's that hard up for $ to spent a couple seasons looking like a grade A loser, well I don't see that.
You know, possibly. He's got 3 kids and the endorsements may be running out.
LOL! He was pulling in around $35 million per year. He recently trademarked his victory pose to license to various businesses he is involved with. He collects royalties from a restaurant chain in the UK, etc., etc.
