Fred Kerley has fired back at Noah Lyles, dismissing Lyles’ 200m world record with a bold remark: “They gave him that time.” Kerley, the reigning 100m world champion, suggested that Lyles’ record-breaking performance wasn’t entirely due to his own ability, implying that external factors like ideal conditions helped propel the time.
Kerley’s challenge signals a growing rivalry between the two sprinters. While Kerley has focused primarily on the 100m, his comments show he’s ready to take on Lyles in the 200m as well. The 200m world champion has dominated the event recently, but Kerley’s trash talk sets the stage for an exciting one-on-one showdown.
With both athletes in peak form, fans are eagerly anticipating a fierce contest between the two sprinters. Kerley seems determined to prove himself as a threat in both the 100m and 200m, and this rivalry is sure to heat up in the coming months.
