Glad you made this channel. Interesting to hear your thoughts on everything. You and michael phelps are my 2 favorite athletes of all time. I'll never forget watching you chase down bolt and coleman from that outside lane to win world title! You ran with different mindset then everyone else. Salute to you sir!

De Grasse looks to be in better form earlier in the season than he normally does.

[@CollingAshford]

I completely understand what Justin Gatlin is saying, but unfortunately, a lot of people on social media (Twitter, Instagram, KZbin, etc.) are already counting him out in both 100m and 200m this year in Paris Olympics. And on top of that, I’ve also seen a lot of people on social media are even now hating on him, disrespecting him, and even greatly downgrading his track career, which is really unfortunate. So again, majority of the track and field world are already counting Andre out in both sprinting events this year.

the sport is what have u done for me lately. people forget andre de grasse always shows up in big moments despite injuries. U let him catch a Rhythm dont be surpise if he beats lyles again

[@sharonedwards6010]

Unfortunately, I am one of those who thinks he is not gonna make it on the podium in Paris especially after watching the American T&F trials and then I hear of the Jamaican sprinter K Thompson. Good Luck Andre!

Degrasse he’s gonna shine at the Olympic. Don’t surprise if you win the 100m and the 200 m final you said that’s a stretch is very experience. He’s a pro. Don’t surprise if you win one or the other or maybe both of them 100 m or 200 m final.

[@TheoOJamaloO1]

He won't trust me

[@azsegrxdhtfgvijnkomlewrhtg9508]

Not with Noah Lyles competing. Noah will either break the 200 meter world record or get very close and I believe he will run a 9.7 100. I don't believe any of the other guys will break 9.8 for 100. The guy has just been getting better and better so these are just obvious predictions.

[@MR12AMAZING]

Absolute no one is touching Lyles in the 200m. The 100m, maybe Degrasse could pull something off.

[@enricobonomi9471]

That was a french accent 😅 In italy we usually refer to him as just "Marcell"

[@mikeblue8327]

Justin Gatlin is absolutely right :)

[@chillregular2101]

Degrade and Ali are the king and queen of peaking and don’t count me out . They could be bad all season but champs come and they are on game

[@easylogistics7414]

Degrasse will pass you up on the track if you not trained up

[@Joop_music]

Glad to see De Grasse doing his best and he is good in the 200m but I dont think we can beat Noah

[@herbalman6337]

That is one wise young man he knows exactly 💯 % when & where to win the big ones or at least be in the top 3😜!!! Amen 🙏!!!

[@cathydouglas1576]

Don’t ever count Andre out!

Paris Olympics 4X100 relay prediction: Gold - USA Silver - Canada Bronze - Italy

[@MrDjbuckethead]

Degrasse doesn't have a chance in this Olympics. He won during a weird time in track. That won't happen this time. To many runners who can beat his best time.

[@smerel12]

While DeGrasse won in a different time for track, it doesn't mean he's not a strong contender now. He's kept training and getting better since then, which gives him an advantage. Plus, in track, anything can happen on race day. Factors like weather, mindset, and tactics can change everything. DeGrasse has shown he can handle the pressure and adjust his strategy when needed. In the end, the Olympics are all about showcasing the best athletes, and DeGrasse has definitely earned his spot among them. So, it's too soon to rule him out.

[@MrDjbuckethead]

​@@smerel12the six 5 that beat him last year in the world championship finals are all noticeably better. Knihhton, Tebogo , Banderek, Lyles and I'd put Fahnbulleh in the top 4 this Olympics

[@smerel12]

@MrDjbuckethead that's because he wasn't at his best form.

[@AttractionPB2]

@@MrDjbuckethead 200m PB-wise: Noah Lyles: 19.31 Erryion Knighton: 19.49 Lestile Tebogo: 19.50 Andre De Grasse: 19.62 Kenny Bednarek: 19.68 Courtney Lindsey: 19.71 Zharnel Hughes: 19.73 Joseph Fahnbulleh 19.83 Alexander Ogando: 19.91 Aaron Brown: 19.95 Kyree King: 20.00 Last year world championships 200m final result: 1st Noah Lyles: 19.52 2nd Erryion Knighton: 19.75 3rd Lestile Tebogo: 19.81 4th Zharnel Hughes: 20.02 5th Kenny Bednarek: 20.07 6th Andre De Grasse: 20.14 7th Alexander Ogando: 20.23 8th Andrew Hudson: 20.40 9th Joeseph Fanhbulleh: 20.57 Last year Diamond League Final 200m result: 1st Andre De Grasse: 19.76 2nd Kenny Bednarek: 19.95 3rd Erryion Knighton: 19.97 4th Alexander Ogando: 20.08 5th Kyree King: 20.16 6th Aaron Brown: 20.23 Joseph Fahnbulleh: 20.38 And *Andre De Grasse* wasn’t fully healthy last year and he *still made in the Finals at both the World Championships and at the Diamond League Final* So, Just like @smerel12 said, anything can happen on race day. Factors such as weathers, mindsets, the race rounds, tactics, being in great shape/full health, etc.

@AttractionPB2 perfectly said
