I remember the great Frank Frederick so well here in south Africa. About 1985, he was a skinny kid, fastest junior high schooler in south Africa. Then at SA champs, he had an off day, only came in 4th or 5th. Went off to America, built a good physique, became one of the greats.
1996, I was 6 years old,... when Frank Fredericks used to run, the whole neighborhood would be glued to their television 📺... WATCHING THEIR HERO.... just as we do to Mboma, but now for her is both TV 📺 and smartphone 📱 (Facebook/TH-cam)... 😂 🤣 😅
"Michael is not the type of runner who can run with someone next to him." OUCH!!! LOL. I love Michael, but honestly, Frankie is right. Michael often crumbled when he felt pressure.
You should see how much smack he was talking against Donovan Bailey for the fastest man race in 97...over 150m dude was gonna get destroyed badly and faked an injury at the 100m mark

Well done Frankie Frederick’s! Forever a Legend
It was always a delight to see Fredericks running because he had such a beautiful running style.
Great video
Keep up the good work, I love reminiscing from the 1990s track - you can’t beat it, great era
Yea 90’s was such an epic era for Track

Thanks Jim for always uploading beautiful videos
Frankie Frederick and Michael Johnson, this was one fierce rivalry
Good race! Thank you.
Nice race. Upload the mens 4×100 m relay 2001 World Championships.
Frankie Frederick was a classic sprinter.
Amazing race. Do you have the 2004 mens 100m U.S Olympic trials
"Michael is not the type of runner who can run with someone next to him." OUCH!!! LOL. I love Michael, but honestly, Frankie is right. Michael often crumbled when he felt pressure.
It's amazing that sprinters can tell they're won even if they're only ahead by a bit.
Was this the last time those two guys raced each other?
Yes it was
Frankie Fredrick's ran a awesome race.It's awesome to see the most arrogant sprinter next to Carl Lewis get beat.
You should see how much smack he was talking against Donovan Bailey for the fastest man race in 97...over 150m dude was gonna get destroyed badly and faked an injury at the 100m mark
Unnecessary, because Frankie did it back to him 2, it’s called COMPETITION.
Great race. Do you have the Women’s 100m from this meet? (Devers vs Ottey vs Torrence)
I don't think I do. However, here's the women's 100m from the 1997 ISTAF Meet with Devers vs Ottey vs Jones:
