IShowSpeed is trying to prove to Usain Bolt that he’s fast.
But the eight-time Olympic gold medalist didn’t seem all that convinced. In a newly surfaced clip of their conversation, Bolt tells Speed that running at his level is something “you train all your life for.”
“Alright, we gotta see,” Speed said, doubtful.
“You’re acting like I’m 55, bro,” Bolt continued. “You know Shelly-Ann [Fraser-Pryce] just retired? You probably couldn’t beat Shelly Ann.”
Fraser-Pryce, also a Jamaican track and field sprinter, is a three-time Olympic gold medalist.
Speed looked surprised at Bolt’s statement. “I’m telling you, bro. Over 40 meters, she’s quick—it’s no joke,” Bolt added.
“Where my spikes at?” Speed said, prompting everyone to laugh. “Let me show you my speed, man,” he told Bolt.
“Don’t worry about it,” Bolt said, to which the streamer said, “You underestimate my speed.”
It’s unclear what the video is from, but perhaps Bolt made good on his proposal to train Speed.
Back in May, Usain offered to help Speed run faster. During a stream, Speed shared an Instagram video note from the retired sprinter, who said he was down to "link up any time" with him.
"I'm retired now, so I'm not running," Bolt said. "But I can coach you to go faster. You're already fast, but everybody wants to be faster, right?"
"Yoooo!" Speedyelled. "Private training with Usain Bolt!" Speed replied by calling the athlete a "legend,” adding, “Let's lock that training session in.”
