Donovan Bailey Talks Shericka Jackson, Kishane Thompson, Andre De Grasse and more 

He'll win it easily. I doubt it'll be much of a race.

With good rest and discipline through the heats, yes, he is the favourite for Gold in Paris. But you never know who else may step up on that night -- we didn't see Marcel Jacobs coming last time.

That’s tibegos form he looks like he’s not trying but trust me he is, watch all his races when you get a chance.

@@jomohector5274 Tebogo only ran 9.88 he never dip below 9.85

​@fredball8240 Nothing is certain until people run at the Olympics through heats to semis to finals. Kishane is definitely a heavy favourite, but he isn't the only one going to be improving in times.

The most ridiculous one I've seen is that the Track is Shorter.. SMH!

It's not about the atmosphere in Jamaica. It's about running in front of a large home crowd that supports you (it affects all sportsmen), not having jet lag from travelling to another continent to race the next day, and other factors like diet and family which you are used to. When we talk about a different type of atmosphere, it's usually about sprinters like Omanyala who live in high altitudes.

@johnsonanum Very good point. I hear you. But again, we have proven ourselves 100s of times over the last 40 years in track. It doesn't matter where we are. We can and WILL most likely beat you..

They forget to mention that Asafa never ran a 9.7 in Jamaica and he has the most after Bolt..Bolt, Blake and Carter all ran theor best races outside of Jamaica...now let's loom at Eugene Oregon track that fastest in the World and Amrica can NEVER replicate their times at the big dance

@@daowonimdee In Kishane and Oblique, you have good reasons to be optimistic. I just want to remind you that some athletes from other countries have been playing it safe all year and some are pretending to have less in the tank than they actually do, but in the Olympics final, they will set the track on fire. Also keep in mind that while Kishane is the favourite by World Lead, he is not as experienced or well-funded for international competitions as some of the people he will race at the Olympics. Noah Lyles for example, spends large amounts of money on healthcare during major competitions -- he can come to Paris with a personal masseuse and chiropractor and sleep in a high-quality hotel room instead of the cardboard beds at the Olympic village in Paris.

Like you waaaan fk him now? 🙄

I wish Elaine was in Franno's camp this year. Bolt secured his Tripple Double Gold. We needed to see Elaine doing the same in Paris.

​@johnsonanum, you'll talked as if it would be a 100% guarantee that she will win double Olympic gold if she was still with with Franno

​@@trackuniverse9121we can talk like that because we know do she is already double double, she was set to be a tripple double this time.

Yes. Levell came 2nd in the 100m heats behind Oblique, but he won the 200m race

@ryanhenry4858. I think he's remembering the 200m 🙂

Levell won the 200m.​@@user-oq7ji2rx4l

thank you for listening!

Donovan needs to do this alone or find a more knowledgeable partner. This guy in the blue shirt very likely does not watch the meets he discusses. Always out of sorts.

@@abimbolasulaiman9302 Respect for Jason... I couldn't do this without him

@@DonovanBaileyOfficial he seems like a great guy. Nothing personal. But he never seems to be on top of the topics. Like I said, the impression I get is that he has briefing notes but hasn't actually watched the meets.

😂😂😂

Tebogo always has more in the tank. We hope brings it at the finals in Paris.

So why doesn't he use what's in the tank? I should have said, "Tobago,seems as if he doesn't run hard, but maybe he is running really hard, but make it seem effortlessly....like how Asafa Powell

@@cosmicwisdom999 Most times, Tebogo doesn't run hard, but if you watch the 100m final at Budapest last year, he ran hard. I think his style of running allows him to win most races while enjoying himself, but when his opponents are tougher, he pushes himself much harder to catch them at the ending of the race.

@@johnsonanum Ok...cool

You need to send them to train in jamaica with the MVP and Racers track clubs.they have the two best coach in the world in Stephen Francis and Glen Mills

Either the government or private sector stepped in and help them to get good coach and sponsorship .

It's going to take a.vision AND investment in athletes and coaches. Your government can start with a couple athletes training in Jamaica 🇯🇲 Start the conversation and see. You may never know.

@@evertongreensword2732 You are right. I guess it comes down to funding our athletes well enough for them to go and train abroad. That's how we got Tobi Amusan (trained by a Jamaican Coach) and Favour Ofili (trained in the NCAA system).

And Brian ago PB again wid him coach. U see what she did for elaine last year in 8weeks? Elaine end her season with 10.79! Shenike is great!

From what I remember he actually pulled off one foot with ease. It seems they weren’t tied any at all 😂

@@JadenMalik thank you! Because I was thinking ......what?????? 😀😃🙂

@@JadenMalik😂😂😂😂

Questions for the Coach for sure

Whoa whoa whoa...I said artist not album, of course I know BOB, c'monnn...chaaa, lol.

@@portuondo71 Once he said Exodus he thought you would pickwd up but you did redeem yourself. Bless up 🙌

Naa mon, all good...appreciate the link fam

Have you ever heard of the walking encyclopedia, Hubert Lawrence? This man could tell you the Bio. of every athlete,(world or local)straight out of his head. And this was across all disciplines.

We are actively watching and discussing 🇯🇲

​@@barrylloyd5864 yes indeed. Sigh RIP Hubert 😢

Jamaica has the most passionate track and field fans in the world. This is not up for debate. All the American track and field athletes and all the track and field athletes around the world say Jamaican fans are the most passionate when they compete on the island. It’s not even close. All Jamaica needs is more track and field stadiums and more high level tracks which is going to happen in the next few years.

@@Stewy-xw9fz Yes definitely so.

Even robots break down sometimes. And Richardson is a mere human being.

Richardson has not been running that long in comparison to Shericka. Also Shacarri doesnt double alot like Shericka.

You are right, those roids make the body heal fast.

Bolt's 9.58 is superhuman. Please don't expect that in Paris. Maybe 9.6 high or 9.7 low.

@@johnsonanum Same was said about Michael Johnson 19:32sec WR at the time. And what did Bolt do? He demolish that WR. So nothing is impossible at this time, Base on the manner of how Kishane Thompson is running

​@@johnsonanum👌 9.58 is a video game time. Let him get to 9.6 then adjust the training from there. People seem to forget bolt only ran 9.5 once. The great specimen freak of nature bolt.

@@dewayanejohnson1620 Nobody has come close to breaking Bolt's record in 15 years! Nobody has even run 9.6 in 12 years. It's as difficult as that. If it were easier, Kerley or Omanyala would have done it already. Besides, you need conditions like a good tailwind to break a record -- and Shericka is proof that wind doesn't obey our desires. Yes, Kishane is a rare talent, but like Donovan Bailey often says, an athlete needs to show consistency first, then records will come eventually. If Kishane keeps running like this, maybe he may reach 9.6 low by next year.

@@johnsonanum When Bolt step down to the 100m for the first time. After he had injured problem in 2008 before the Olympics game Beijing. Who remember when he run that first 100m at the national stadium in a time 9:76sec. That same year he break 2 WR. 9:72 then he lowered it to 9:69sec. N I truly believed that Kishane Thompson can break the WR base upon how he's preforming. Am looking for a 9:54sec at Paris this Olympics.

Hahaha...naaa a mi bredda

First of all, going off of times, they are strong favorites. 2) the word is hypocrite and it’s meaning makes no sense here ? 3) Donovan Bailey is Jamaican and even has the accent. Who he represented is something different. Ben Johnson, Linford Christie are not any less Jamaican.
