FRED KERLEY & ASICS MUTUALLY PART WAYS

Twitter

Minutes after false starting in NY York and being spotted in puma spikes

The dude is a Unit, but there is a screw loose. Maybe he can get sponsored by Boeing.

Will ASICS make a run at Parker Valby?

So wait, the whole "I'm gonna break the world record" was just a way to draw attention to a premeditated false start so more eye balls would be on his new Puma spikes? Because he was so frustrated with ASICS spikes?

In his interview with citius post race he claims he wasnt dq'ed and that he left his asics spikes at the airport????https://x.com/ChrisChavez/status/1799887271946006657?t=3NP44gcsMGeHK7MtXKnD1Q&s=19

Misleading thread title. ASICS didn’t drop him. As the tweet says, they mutually parted ways.

So Asics found out and dropped him? Or he actually is just no longer with them and didn't want to reveal that he's signed with Puma yet in that interview? What an odd situation.

let's Nike Fred

You telling me they couldn't get a pair of Asics spikes to him??? Not a single pair could be found in NYC? That the only option available was to run in Pumas?

I'm starting to think Big Fred is nuttier than squirrel crap.

Who cares. No one buys ASICS because of Fred

You've seen the bulge, we all know what that means. Maybe they don't keep size 15s handy

Unreal. I didn't believe it at first. Chris wouldn't lie about that.

So who's going to pick him up now, 3 weeks before the trials?!

Asics isn't that great.

They just suffer no fools.

No, they buy it because of Mo Katir!

Asics definitely doesn’t make good sprint spikes

ASICS is a Japanese company, which means that when they are communicating on something like this they are never going to be direct or place blame on one party. I hope that Fred is able to find a new sponsor ahead of the Olympics. I do think his and Noah’s rivalry has brought a lot of attention to our sport!
