NOAH LYLES VS. LAMONT MARCELL JACOBS! || Men's 60 Meter Dash - 2025 New Balance Indoor Grand Prix

[@AllInTheGame01]

Interesting that improvements to Noah's 60/100m PBs since '22 from 6.55 to 6.43 & 9.86 to 9.79 hasn't translated as expected into an improvement to his 19.31 200m PB/NR from when he only ran the 200m @'22 Eugene WC. Since doubling 100/200m @Major Meets, has literally never run sub 19.5s in the 200m Final; 9.83/19.52 @'23 Budapest WC, 9.83/19.53 @'24 US OLY Trials & 9.79/19.70* @'24 Paris OLY Covid Final. Would've needed to run well under 19.4s to beat a 19.46 Tebogo who was slapping his chest 10m from the line! Will be interesting to see if this pattern continues in '25!

[@samuelzobo4961]

Noah was simply no longer used to running the 200m, which is why, since he decided to focus on the 100/200, his times have been less impressive than in 2022. For example, in 2023, he never ran the first 100m of his 200m below 10.20, except once, but the wind was favorable at 1.7 during that race. In 2024, Noah ran the first 100m of his 200m in 10.17 and 10.18 during the Olympics and the trials. These times are still slower than his prime, which was between 10.07 and 10.15. We’ll see this year if he can get back to those times, and I think he’s more than capable, as he has never been faster than today. I’m excited to see the rematch between Tebogo and Lyles in the 200m.

[@wisforwinner]

He got slower in the 200m because he started focusing on 100m which he wasn’t doing prior to 2023. As for the lack of translation from the 60m to other events, you can just tell by watching him run the 60m that he runs it way differently than he does the 100m and 200m

[@joshuasanimations]

The thing about the 200m final is that Noah was Noah's first 100m was 10.18 WITH covid, meaning it would've been faster without and his closing split was obviously where covid really affected him. Given his usual 200m close, he was on pace to run high 19.3, low 19.4. Even if you add his 9.26 close from 2023, which he ran in a headwind to 10.18 you still get 19.44. And I think Noah was definitely in better 200m shape in 2024 than in 2023. You can say what you want but I don't think Noah is any worse at the 200 meters now than before.

[@wisforwinner]

@ agreed, I think the focus on 100m has slowed him down recently

[@AthleticsEditz]

@joshuasanimations Worse than in 2022, but yeah, arguably better than 2023 (however the conditions in and before the 200m Final in Budapest weren't great which could've been why he 'only' went out in 10.26 that race).

[@TheWayWithKhuwayne]

Based on racing history, health and overall consistency, I believe Lyles will get the win here against Jacobs. He has been getting better and better each year and improving in minor events like the 60m and 150m quite rapidly. Plus, he is very much a top race performer who can perform under pressure and deliver good results. He did declare in his recent livestream with Frederick Flips that he will not be competing at World Indoor Championships this year, so I'm intrigued to see how he races throughout the Indoor season.

[@AthleticsEditz]

Makes sense since he wouldn't want to burn himself out before Tokyo.

[@mikiohirata9627]

They are both incredible for sure ! Both in their speed and looks. Marcel especially with his movie star pretty face is so appealing !💥💙

[@siegeaye]

I think Jacobs past his prime…he may have a chance to contest Noah but I think Noah is just blazing through every race BUT you never know…

[@AllInTheGame01]

Jacobs literally ran his 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th fastest 100m times all in '24.

[@stevie586]

No…he’s getting better. His 2021 thing was those shoes, which he lost and got slow after he lost them. BUT, he’s improving on his own with his form, and he’s looking really good to me, honestly. He just needs more strength, because his mechanics and overall execution is amazing, to me, and will be much better if/when he’s merely stronger.

[@TheErinBrownTV]

Wrong wrong and wrong

[@MarcelloAntestaco]

Jacobs went from broken (or still recovering) to 9.85 in an Olympic final in 2024. If you take into account where he was coming from, he's had an outstanding season and trajectory. I don't know if he's going to keep improving this year but I wouldn't be shocked if he dipped below 9.8 again in 2025. As for the 60m, it very much depends on the strategy he's working on at the moment. Could very well do 6.5 or less as well as use them as a stepping stone for the summer season and not care too much about his performance right now

[@BreezyVisualEffects]

Jacobs ran 9.85 not fully fit

lyles wouldn't be the first because mo greene was in the top ten all time in 60, 100 and 200 at the time he ran his pb's in the late 90's. but in todays world, lyles would be the only one on each of the top 10

[@jaden5493]

​@@RocketGFX probably not, indoor sprints seems to be lacking competition this year (I dont think coleman will be indoors this year)

[@Sckipt]

Are you not gonna mention the fact that Thompson and Kerley dropped 6.41s during that same race? That first 60 meters would put those two in the top 10 conversation.

[@samuelzobo4961]

Nah Thomson 6.40 and kerley 6.42

[@tonytay4320]

Thompson & Kerley probably not running in this up coming race so narrator felt the need to leave them.

[@Robzabest25]

he literally made a video about kishane like a day ago running the fastsest 60m and today he needs name drop diff names just to get more clicks makes no sense

[@sheeniebeanie2597]

noah knows that he is strong in 200m (he only lost in Paris because he was sick with COVID). noah has been working on the 60m and 100m to get better starts and improve extremely short distance. if noah keeps it up, he'll get the triple gold in LA.

[@joshuasanimations]

He had triple gold in the bag after the 100m in paris, just got very unlucky with covid. LA is still a bit far, if he wins the 100 in tokyo this year I think he might do the triple

[@frankiethefrog1752]

@joshuasanimationsabsolutely zero way of knowing if he would have won the 200m. That guy ran a time that Noah has only topped a couple times and has not topped in awhile.

noah lyles is incredible 🎉

[@gianlucatranchina9169]

Marcel Jacobs Has moved in USA on the 23rd October. We don't know in which condition will be and how us going the training with a new coach.

[@gianlucatranchina9169]

With that said Noah is doing same preparation of Olympics games start an early programme and fully booked races between trial, diamond league, and others meeting do you think will gain 7 months of high level or is gonna busted like last year when finished 3rd behind Tobogo and simulate COVID.....let see where he achieve and respect for this talent

[@joshuasanimations]

I think he most likely wins, if not, only tebogo beats him but not bednarek. He's not even close

Crazy, but Jacobs and Lyles are almost identical in “style”. Jacobs gets out faster, but something about the two of these guys together, I believe they can improve one another tremendously if they were to train together, etc. You always bring up the right topics…great matchup!!!

[@Rokket.the.lad12]

Many people think Marcel Jackobs isn’t at his best and is far from it. They have a point, but in the Olympics final, Marcel beat everyone to the 30m or 40m mark. His start is still unbelievable and I think that with Lyles focusing on his start for 2025, (not the 200m as much) plus incredible top speed, this will be a race to watch and remember

[@lestine4919]

The race will be very tight and I think Marcell Jacobs will be in great shape for season 25 because he has been training well without any major constraints/injuries. Prime Jacobs is and will always be better than Lyles and therefore I believe he has reached/is reaching his peak fitness and will beat Lyles in 60m at this race or the next (in world champs!)

[@dr.jonpatrickanderson]

If Noah Lyles can improve, he has a good chance of beating Marcell Jacobs. That feat, no doubt, won't be easy.

[@martintownsend6694]

Still no bingtian su tho is it, 6.29!!!!

Don’t you think if it was a credible time it would be respected more. Why do you think track and field doesn’t even bat an eye at that time.

[@martintownsend6694]

@k.j.6998 so your saying that times false? And who doesn't bat an eye at that time? There's literally 100s of videos devoted to looking at that race! Many people have broke the video down to check it! Did you also know he has something like the 10th fastest split ever recorded at 6.34 when he ran his 9.92 pb as well
