Noah Lyles is so unlikable now

Always thought he was a cornball. Bummed Kung Fu Kenny didn’t win that one

I always enjoy the villain personality but Lyles is just acting like a douche, especially to Bednarek of all people.

“Now?”

If not for a few of his unique performances, he’d be completely hated. We need better leadership in sprinting.

Probably the first world champion where I'll actively be rooting against an American. Classless behavior from Lyles

It would’ve been different if Noah and Kenny had some insane beef and this was to settle it but no? He just did all that for the hell of it.

Kenny gave him a shove at the end of the race after Lyles did the look over, it caused this particular conflict, they both need to grow up

He’s the Russell Wilson of track and field. Total cornball and disingenuous.

Kenny literally had a burner Twitter account for months with thousands of followers where he s***talked Noah and his fiancé (amongst other athletes like Gabby Thomas). Then he pushes Noah after this race. I don't see how Noah is in the wrong here

It was also allegedly someone in his camp

you can go alleged for alleged

Lyles has never been likeable.

unlikable now? lol.

How come when Bolt does a look over or Tebogo does a finger wag no one cares, but when Lyles does something similar he has a bunch of haters?

It's sprinting it's always been like that.

Charles Paddock (20's) would tell his competitors......you got no chance......why are you even here.....good luck you're going to need it....it's simply how it is.

I expect it, no big deal at all,

There's some history here. Kenny Bednarek and his girlfriend are supposedly the ones behind the Track Spice account that deactivated once they were found out. I guess there was some "spicy" stuff said about Noah and his wife.

Check out this short. One of Noah's teammates explains the situation.

Hi issue is that he can't accept that track and field is not the NBA or the NFL.

He believes he should be on the same level of financial wealth and fame as the top guys in these sports and can't accept that he isn't.

It's stuff like this that he thinks is "part of the package" - ironically this is no different to his pro sports "nemesis" Tyreek Hill doing his little "Cheetah" taunt to backs after he has burned them on a slant or something.

But this is track, it's just not cool - and it's not cool when it's a guy like Bednarek who is a nice and humble dude - but Noah isn't intelligent enough to understand the implications of that and how he's going to come off doing that to Bednarek of all people. He's got a 14 year olds brain stuck in an elite physical specimen body - this is always how I would describe Noah.

The look over was fine and don't think Bednarek would have ever cared. It's the getting up in someones face (slowing down ever so slightly running right in front of him and chirping), getting pushed and then acting as if you are some kind of victim that tends to get people offside. KB even manned up and said he was sorry and Lyles stiffed him. Not cool.

That track spice thing? Do we know for sure that was Kenny? Doesn't seem like something he'd do but idk I'm kinda out of the loop on that whole situation

Troll post, he is still likeable, liked his performance even more after the 200 now.

They do have beef. Kenny created the twitter account Track Spice to gossip about Noah and Gabby and others. He trolled Noah on that account. Once Gabby found out who is was, he deleted the account.
