To be fear that was at track meet, that wasn’t any world championship or Olympic that was just a regular meet in Italy, but that was asafa Powell ting he like to slow down at the line meter 10 to 15 meters
This is wen I know asafa was a never a champion is wen 2006 Commonwealth Games dude barely came in first and he was the fastest man in the world running 970 almost every time, blow my mind
I wish you had watched the entire interview. He said he doesn't know if it was a curse or bad luck but every time he were to perform at a big event. He had an injury. He literally said he felt like someone cursed him. I think the entire Jamaica needs to watch that interview.
Okay, but do you buy his cursed and bad luck theory? Why every major races this curse take effect? I think he was injury mentally on the big occasions that’s more plausible to me.
Asafa Powell make Richard Thompson n Walter dix fresh out of college beat asafa in 2008 Olympic wen he asafa was the prohibited favorite along with Tyson and Usain Bolt🙆🏿♂️
@Johntom8291 💖Merlene Ottey did NOT have the same problem as Asafa. Merlene had no issue performing at big events. She simply performed at the SAME level as her AMERICAN rivals and drew with her on 2 accounts, with Merlene having the edge in Atlanta, but the USA bias Managemt took the gold . If Jamaica had another 1or2 female sprinters like Merlene at the time, Merlene would have won a couple of Relay Gold medals but she didn’t have the support in speed.🤓 🧔🏽♂️The person going on about Asafa, After you BASH him you said you not bashing him, blah blah. If Asafa had a mental weakness, it is a complex problem -MAY have been 😩 caused by the death of 2 brothers and other issues, (NOT DEALT WITH)plus his gentle personality - and of course he was injured at couple of times. If he let you down so much that you have to be bashing him now. - learn this: ‘don’t put your trust in man’. God’s words.😇
His mind is weak when s runner levels with him he slows down. Merlene Ottey had the same problem. Harry Kane the footballer has got the same problem. On big occasions they flop it's a mental breakdown 😎
How did Merlene flop she medaled in all the championships and has world championship gold and lost very close races there is no comparison asafa was the fastest man in the world and kept finishing fifth poor comparisons
Please don't compare Ottey to him. She won Olympic individual medals and also individual world championship medal. Her mental toughness, particularly in an era of drugs bellies from the USA, was next level.
@@ExplosiveReactionzThat is a very very STUPID statement to make about Asafa. You need to do your homework... Even for someone to school you on Marlene Ottey tell the whole story. Bredda, do you homework before you talk rubbish, please, the future of your channel depends on it... Respect 🙏🏾
Asa always use injure as a excuse for him not to perform when he come to championship, on three occasions, suffer part was a clear favored to win, and he came up with nothing Michael frater have a higher medal 🏅 than asafa. Check the 2005 World championships
Rite after 2008 Olympic asafa ran the third fastest time ever in history in Lausanne Switzerland with the same guy minus Usain Bolt 9.72 tha is wat make em the 4th fastest man ever
My friend, you shiukd never be making statements like that about the Great Asafa Powell. Asafa was a great strinter for Jamaican that was plagued with serious reoccurring injuries. Injuries that Franno at the time couldn't help him wuth outside of surgery. What you are saying is a general Jamaican talk coming from people who realily don't know anything about track and field. Please put some RESPECT on Mr. Powell's name and stop the foolishness young man. Bless up🙏🏾
He has every right to comment on Powell. Just who the hell is he. He is not the GOAT and he has failed to deliver when it counted the most too many times to count. People are allowed to comment on that. Powell is not beyond reproach. I don't buy the excuse that he was always injured in the big events. Look at Bolt in 2015 when he barely beat Gatlin...He wad counted out because he was injured that season and was totally counted out but he prevailed because of his faith and mental toughness...So miss me with the excuses in defence of someone who said that Jamaicans are lucky he chose to live in Jamaica, and that Jamaicans need to not put him in the same category as regular class ppl.
Batty man nuh own no number enuh 💬🤔
😂 nor colors 🌈 lol
Asafa Powell always runs faster after Olympic or world championships. He becomes a nervousness when he is in big race wit real runners
To be fear that was at track meet, that wasn’t any world championship or Olympic that was just a regular meet in Italy, but that was asafa Powell ting he like to slow down at the line meter 10 to 15 meters
This is wen I know asafa was a never a champion is wen 2006 Commonwealth Games dude barely came in first and he was the fastest man in the world running 970 almost every time, blow my mind
Asafa didn’t have champion pedigree by running on the track n field circuit he is good
I wish you had watched the entire interview. He said he doesn't know if it was a curse or bad luck but every time he were to perform at a big event. He had an injury. He literally said he felt like someone cursed him. I think the entire Jamaica needs to watch that interview.

😂😂😂... that's preposterous
@@ExplosiveReactionz 😂😂😂 you are 100 per cent right

Good to hear these story from two of the greatest sprinter of all time.💯❤️❤️🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸
Marlene Ottey flop? When? Where? How? Who are these mindless people trying to rewrite HISTORY. Stop this foolishness immediately...
Please don't compare Ottey to him. She won Olympic individual medals and also individual world championship medal. Her mental toughness, particularly in an era of drugs bellies from the USA, was next level.
And yes my heart heart when he never won , just like many other Jamacians
I like this guy. Ur not bad at all especially when u cuss about Elaine that made me love u
Thanks
Merlene Ottey is double World Champion in 200m in 1993 and 1995.
Several World Indoors champion, Outdoor and Olympic medalists.
At least she was a champion unlike Asafa
