Legendary sprinter Usain Bolt believes one Premier League star could beat him in a 20-yard sprint.
Usain Bolt may be the fastest man in history but he believes one Premier League player could potentially beat him in a race over a shorter distance.After retiring from sprinting, Bolt attempted to become professional in a completely different sport - football.
He trained with Norwegian side Stromsgodset and later joined A-League side Central Coast Mariners, scoring twice in a friendly match for the Australian club.Predictably, he has been challenged to races by players at the club's Carrington training base.Darren Bent asked him: "I read an article where you said that Rashford could beat you over 20 yards, is that correct?""He has that burst of speed but after that, I told him, you could probably get me in 20 .
"I know a lot of Arsenal fans and when they're top of the table they talk so much and I'm like, 'You haven't won yet!' Imagine if they actually won? Oh my God, It would be over. I'd rather Man City win than Arsenal because I couldn't deal with it. "Liverpool? No, because they'd be tied on titles with us and we can't have that and because Arsenal talk so much, I'd rather deal with Man City.Rory O'Callaghan is Editorial Lead at SPORTbible.
