The reason why we Jamaican call him Asafa 2.5 it’s not a comparison but it’s because he seems to be the first world beater For Frano since Asafa as a male sprinter

[@tyeguy5373]

@Lifewithgoldbridge121 Noah have to dig deeper but he’s not a 100M specialist to overcome Kishane power and speed.. Kishane can easily go 9.6 which is almost impossible for Noah Lyles to go from 9.83 to anywhere near 9.6, Kishane is just faster than him..

[@Edward-zb9qx]

If Kishane turns up in Paris in the shape he showed at our championships , whoever wants to win the 100 will have to beat him,, and l am confident that Franno is able to do it

[@NathanEall]

As a Lyles fan, I’d be happy if Kishane won it, I’d also love to see him drag lyles to a 9.7. If lyles is in 9.7 shape, then lyles can definitely drop a 19.2 something in the 200, getting olympic record.

[@Tredawakandan]

Personally i believe what Noah said about racing at Home vs The Olympics.. He already beat Kerley & Coleman who both at the moment hold higher PR. Honestly the 100m is still too close for me say who will win clearly.

Yup. Just watched that interview with Noah and immediately picked up on that shady little remark he made about Kishane.

[@DamionAnthony-df9sc]

[@cjay133]

I think Lyles should watch the rounds in the 100 and if Thompson is lowering his time, noah should take it easy and try and go for the gold in the 200m. He might overwork his body.

[@MrDjbuckethead]

Nah, he's one of those types that match energy

[@cjay133]

@MrPanggs ok.. it will hard on Lyles

[@KerwynForde]

I watched the video with Noah's statement. If you watch there is slight microexpression of surprise when the interviewer said Kishane dropped a time of 9.82. Surprise and also genuine concern which lead to his follow up statement. I don't think Noah meant or insinuated any disrespect or malice towards Kishane but what I do think is Noah knows that Kishane has had injuries before and genuinely wishes he stays healthy maybe just not 9.77 healthy in my opinion tho 😅

[@KerwynForde]

Also us Caribbean people don't really hold grudges. We do remember what people say that may seem boastful and arrogant and we will hold them accountable for what was said. I'm from Trinidad 🇹🇹 and we have a saying "today for you, tomorrow for me"

[@user-oj2nw8pv9q]

No malice, just shock. Remember Lyle's like control. He had dreams if winning both 100m and 200m. Noah dream is threatened

[@KerwynForde]

@user-oj2nw8pv9q facts. You can see if you look closely, it was subtle. Noah knows Kishane can possibly run fast just not THAT fast. Running 100m and 200m is already taxing, let alone winning both events and as you correctly put it, it's under threat. Paris is going to be helluvah exciting Olympics.

[@lto2048]

Men, just watched this Kishane kid for the 1st time and i can see that he is special. I see him breaking the WR. Right now Lyles isnt that kind of shape in the 100m. This kid is a problem.
