    Donovan was one of the few guys I heard that actually said Tobego is a beast and has a legit shot at winning before the race. The rest of these so called ‘experts’ acted like it was a foregone conclusion that Lyles was going to win

    I knew that displaying Michael Jonson's video would take us back to the old rivalry between Donovan Bailey and Johnson: the one million dollars race!!!😅 D. Bailey is a canadian legend!!!!

    Well said Donovan! The fastest man currently IS Kishane Thompson. The fastest man in the world is STILL Usain Bolt!

    You whooped Jonson's behind on the "inside tighter line" man, don't BS us lol! Donovan, you are a legend!
  • @BigJL
    Donovan was classy lol If this was 1997 he'd call Noah a Chicken (which is facts)
  • @HIDprox
    Classy response by Donovan to Ariel's pot stirring question. Guy is doing the same s stirring that he does in mma reporting, give it a rest. Smh
