Track and field is literally the only professional sport where women get paid more than men. Here in the UK the top 3 paid athletes are Dina Asher-Smith, Katrina Johnson-Thompson and Laura Muir.

What doesn't make sense to me is why he didn't even try to have a private conversation with Michael Johnson? He immediately resorts to internet drama. Alexis Ohanian should be a man and talk to Michael Johnson one on one, like a man would. The 2 events wouldn't even conflict either. Athlos is after the season is over. Grand Slam is regular season. Its just giving the vibe that Ohanian wants attention. But the reality of both situation is... neither of them will stay long term. GST is not going to be profitable because outside eyes are not gonna pay for FloTrack. Athlos isn't doing anything new that hasnt been done either. You can't do the same things over and expect different results.

Britanny Brown got her's. She made 85k in 60 minutes alongside her purse from the Diamond League Final the week before. That's what you should do with these goofballs, supporting women is cool, but he's obviously just looking for brownie points, take his money from him while he talks.

I think it's cool that Alexis' "league" highlights females athletes, particularly, Black female runners. In worldwide sports, and oftentimes in T&F, it seems that Black female athletes, as a whole, don't get the spotlight they deserve. Kudos to MJ for starting his league; the more the merrier. Both "leagues" have shortcomings. So far, has MJ's league signed any non-American athlete? Also, what about the field events?

Earth to guys: don't ask for help on BEHALF of women cause you don't have to be there to back up your message when people say "no" or get mad. If women are mad or feeling something is wrong they'll be the ones to point it out.
