MJ vs. DB

[mistereverything]

anytime Johnson is getting his ass beat, you can expect him to pull a ham-ie. LOL

[BreuckelensFinest]

@mistereverything he actually pulled his quad in this race

[mistereverything]

@BreuckelensFinest lol, MJ happens to pull something every time someone is kicking his ass.

[6400az]

There is NO WAY Johnson would beat Baily in a sprint, just no way. From the very begining Baily makes up ground.

As soon as he passes him ,Johnson pulls up. This must have been a public reltions nightmare for him.

[rcaddict72]

actually it looked like bailey was keeping some speed up his sleeve through the turn...never noticed that before but he looks like he's shifting gear at about the 90m mark..and he was already ahead...

[oneshotatglory666]

DB just shafted!

[Nightbreed09]

MF always pull a hymi when they gettin burnt

[merovingian08]

does anyone know who is the artist and name of this song?

[Ammovir]

bolt 150 metres at manchester, watch it!

[mtee111]

what does that have to do with anything???

Bolt racing against a bunch of nobodies??

Sorry I'll take the race where the 100m olympic champ and the 200m champ settle their personal beef.

[Ammovir]

He broke a World Record at the event! He is faster than both Bailey and Johnson, what will convince you-boy???

[mtee111]

This race has NOTHING to do with Bolt, why do all T&F noobs bring up Bolt in every vid before he started to run fast. Bolt was 11 years old when this race happened and was a total non-factor at the time...so why bring him up??

[OutDoorLife11]

@mtee111 your right and if people do bring up bolt just tell them that Donovan Bailey holds the world record for top speed at 27.3mph

so bolt is Quicker but Bailey is Faster

[EPizits]

@OutDoorLife11 Actually Bolt has ran faster than that. Just look up the splits for their fastest 100m times. And I'm not even a noob. Lol. Bailey is one of the best of all time though.

[merovingian08]

Michael Johnson should have never agreed to this race, it was a trap and it worked

[stargazer1995]

it was not a trap obviously.

[merovingian08]

Michael should have not agreed to racing him on a track where the turns are to tight it built like a junior high school track. Also he played in the hands of DB he's not as good of a 100m runner as DB nor a 150 off of the turn, he needs momentum from the begining not the middle of the turn thats his strength thats why he was the best 200 & 400m at that time and in history.

[rcaddict72]

@merovingian08 what the hell are you talking about?!..none of your logic makes any sense at all...DB doesnt run turns either- let alone tight ones. the event was carefully planned and both athletes agreed to the conditions and wouldnt have if they didnt think all was as fair as it could be determined. MJ's 100m times are pretty darn good, and DB's 200m isnt bad either. This was a good match race.

[deltaecho1]

michael and donovan have moved past this now. There are no hard feelings.

[stargazer1995]

th're still alive what are you taliking about.

[deltaecho1]

they hated each other back then. They're friends now.

[stargazer1995]

how do you know this im surprised.

[stargazer1995]

if johnson had not injured is quadricep muscle his upright running style would beat donovan because that unique and famous style provides maximum speed for him and he would have won.

[stephen2767]

just a "coincidence" that it happened when he started to lose

[stargazer1995]

hey people michael johnson didn't chicken out he injured his quad(quadricep muscle) he pulled his own muscle so don't say that he chickened out and donovan bailey should apologize michael johnson for saying that stuff to him.

[joespike555]

MJ was such a pathetic loser

[lemonademoosejaw]

Its sad he had to chicken out instead of losing with dignity.

[M7techno]

Mj was alway so fkng sisy he chickened out against Bailey and later against Green

[rocksteadyyouth]

MJ clearly chickened out. and that was a dam shame. No one can tell me differently.

[stickyr34]

yeah MJ pulled his hamstring from all those drugs he took! every race from there on, he pulls something! He's was done after 1996! Its not normal to always be pulling up!! Plus it seems that he doesn't develop lactic acid cuz no human can maintain that extra fast foot speed for too long.

[a2zspaceb2g]

yah thats y micheal destroyed the 400m in 1999, yes he was done after 1996, 43.18 never will be broken

[tallbr0]

MJ got owned man, bottom line

[kennyr9900]

MJ clearly pulled his hamstring and still tried to run with it pulled. Look at 1:11. Once he realized that it wasn't worth tearing his hamstring then he quit, something everyone would do, unless your stupid. Nobody can win a race against equal competition with a pulled hamstring.

[kennyr9900]

Most of you obviously don't understand sprints. DB had him on the corner, which was expected since he runs the 100m. He is more explosive. MJ's top speed doesnt hit until 100-120m into the race, that's why he runs the 200. If he didn't pull his hamstring he would have caught DB somewhere at the finish line, it would have been a great race. MJ's flying 100 is faster than Bolt's at 9.2 seconds.

[stickyr34]

Asafa's flying 100 is faster than MJ's (8.99) not to mention Bolt!!!!!

[bcalpine]

bolts 200 is wayyy faster and any sprinter at that level could beat bolt with a running start haha thats not even a comparison .. ur stupid DB had him at the corner and he wasnt even a good turn runner DB was the fastest man in the world

[nuneswhite]

Please explain flying 100. Do you mean his MPH at the 100m mark of his 200m race?

[dtown416]

just to let everyone know that canada had the top miltary in ww2 so really the usa and the brits needed as just as much as we needed them and about the race they both ran there mouths but truth is MJ did pull his hamstarin shit happens right we cant say hes a pussy these things happen

[tallbr0]

MJ fucking pulled out like a pussy from the first turn he realized he was gonna lose

[messydognation]

DB absolutely tooled him MJ pulled up lame as an excuse to what would have been a total ass kicking. There was no chance MJ could catch him after the bend.

[SeriousMickey]

It is pretty obvious that MJ was in some kind of pain even before DB overtook him. People who claim that he is faking probably know nothing about running and have never been injured in a race. They are both great athletes. DB just happened to be faster that day.

[muzicalife]

LOL i useto look up to Michael Johnson , he is so fake .

[VerraStrngNUCF]

He ran 200 and 400 meters, those are different races. Its not just a question of what your potential is, or capabilities. Its a question of can you do it, practice and intense perfection of technique (almost like a gymnastics routine) are necessary to meet those world class times. He isnt fake, its not his event

[QMan586]

I mean really what were you talking about 22GHOST91

[QMan586]

Like World War II, Canada and the brits and the french got pushed all the way back out of france and had no chance of entering Europe again till America won the War in the Pacific and Europe for everyone. No need to thank us.

[ROMPERSTOMPER21]

what the fuck r u chattin about!!! dont fuckin diss britian im tellin u, we fought to the fuckin end, my grandfather survived the fuckin german bombs on our country in the 1940's. we r only small but we put up one hell of a fight!!! we still fuckin standin n well send any fucker on there way. we had six weeks worth of food supplies for the whole of britian , but churchill wudnt giv up!! thats wot us brits r good for, we got big hearts, n wear the 3 lions on r shirt wit pride!! so fuk fuck u!!!

[QMan586]

Well good for you, my grandfather fought in the war and left his blood on the front lines

[ROMPERSTOMPER21]

yeh it is!!!!!

[MrNormalton]

Yeah the "fastest man on Earth" title is for 100m, not any other event, thats the tradition, thats the way it is, way it should stay.

[MrNormalton]

MJ tanked this race imo.

[mo12141]

bolt is way better. he got like 14:35 for 150m. lol

[Julzellis]

Another JAMAICAN showing the world We are the best!

[22GHOST91]

obviously the bitch american fakes an injury cuz he knows bailey is going to win...sounds like world war 2

[sainters7]

I remember Sports Illustrated just laid into Johnson over that too. In fact I believe the exact title of the article was "Pulling Up Lame". That whole race was a joke anyways, it shouldn't have even happened. It all started because some people in the States didnt like that they didnt have the fastest runner in the world, so they "calculated" Johnson's times into two 100m races and "discovered" he was faster(of course he's faster in the 2nd one, he's starting the 2nd leg at full speed! Stupid)

[sainters7]

btw I just want to add that I'm not trying to trash the States, like so many others are on here. Just in this instance I know that's what it was about. I hate Canadians that just randomly trash the States. The ironic thing is they're just as dumb and closed-minded as the people they're trying to trash.

[Mattu190]

donovan bailey is washed away by jamaica and maurice greene and michael johnson still lives on with a probably an everlasting 43.18 400m and still holds a legendary 19.32 200m that only usain bolt can touch. This race was a publicity act obviously... did not prove a thing.

[jivetome]

Wow. I didn't know when this became an argument starting from athlete to athlete to nationality.

I think people have to chillax about this whole "fuck america" stuff in a video that features RUNNERS who just happen to be of neighboring nationality.

Competition is good, but down talking another persons country is just unclassy.

[nugebri]

Hahaha I love this video it just shows how much Americans hate to loose. What a cowardly act he couldnt take the loss like a man instead he pulls up like a true coward. And if you give me a thumbs down your just like the looser in this race, and I will probably guess you are an American and also a sore loosing coward yourself lol

[fearonism]

Bolt would eat either of these guys...

[myk010]

Gotta love at the end of this video, DB looks back n starts trash talking. he was ahead of the corner, MJ noticed he wasn't winning this one, and had to find an excuse. TYPICAL

[armulus]

MJ Admited a few years later he faked it, But we all knew that anyways because, if you pull a quad kneeling down is extremley painfull if possilbe depending on the degree.

[2000fordmustang]

Bitch can talk the talk, but he cant walk the walk.. nice fake injury yankee biaaatch!!! BAILEY IS DA MAN!!!

[smazz104]

at about the 30 sec mark Johnson looks over and seemd like he wanted to stick his arm out to stop Bailey from blowing by him.

What a suck.

Should show this video to kids in school with the caption:

"dont hunt what you can't eat"

[nugebri]

ahh man I love that quote, that is spectacular "dont hunt what you cant eat lolololo

[serb3]

hahah Johnson what a pussy. i rmbr this like yesturday. Johnson is a classless bitch

[bkelley426]

Really...to win, Johnson had to be out front after the turn, and he was WAY behind. Even if he hadn't pulled up "lame", there was no way he was going to beat Bailey down the stretch. As much as the American media would disagree (at least in the case that the 100 meter champ was not American), the 100 meter champ IS the fastest man in the world. Johnson got his ass whooped...but I'm guessing he still made more money than I ever will...for "pulling the chute".

[maxvincecarter15]

Bailey got 1.5 millions, Johnson "Fake" got 500,000$....Bailey owns!

[Acardician]

I totally disagree with the idea of "faster man". It depends from the distance!

This is a stupid but very commercial logic.

We only have distances. We have to compete according to the distance.

Firstly, 100 meters are different from 150. And 150 are different from 200.

Secondly, 150 meters are not a "compromise" of 100 and 200 distances. They are a discipline in itself.

The video highlights that in that day DB was faster then MJ in 150m. (a part from little injury). No more, no less.

[audiohi]

nice try LOL

[Garbage101]

AMERICUNTS = Soar losers

[SprintingRB26]

guys,

i think there is no need to say any ones Country,

it is about training and has really what country you are born in has effect on your tallent. So compairing countries is not what should be done.

Plus as i see it now Jamaica right now has the fastest sprinters. Both of the past world records by Bolt & Powell are held by Jamaicans..

Either way i think Johnson and Bailey are/were superb athelets!!

[J94B96]

he is the fastest but in 200m u dont hav to acceleration phase at the beggining.

[learntoplayy]

Yes but so what? Dont you think it's exhausting to run 200m in your very top speed ?! If usain bolt ran a 200m he couldnt even get under 19.50.. This 200m record by MJ wont be broken for anoter 2 or 3 decays unless some super human is born lol :D

[mraegard]

Okay, so following your logic, because it's more tiring to run the 200m, he is the fastest? I guess that means that marathon runners are even faster, since MJ nor DB could never do that...:)

[gatorboy2606]

dont matter noone will break Mj's record so this is pointless

[ChartStalker]

haha u jackass usain bolt just shit all over his record!!

[sportdude08]

usain bolt owns bitch. 19.30 in ur ass btich

[ChartStalker]

ahh haha haha dont u look stupid now!!

[learntoplayy]

The 200m world record is waaaaaay faster than the 100m world record.. Do some calculations - 19.32 - 9.72x2 = 19.44 ..there you got it and + MJ had to run 100 metres further than they do on the original 100m.. so MJ was ofc the fastest human being alive..

[mraegard]

learntoplayy, you need to look at the logic part of your math.First of all, the 100m involves a start and stop, so if you are just going to multiply DB's time by two, you're not taking into account that MJ doesn't stop after 100 m and then restarts.This race obviously proved who the fastest man was at the time. Not only that,MJ didn't want to race the 100m. I wonder why. It's funny; this has nothing to do with American bashing, it has to do with American denial. Just give credit when you lose...

[gatorboy2606]

what i find funny is who careswhos faster this is the past.america has faster guys then yall so stop being in deniel.ur only finding away to make yall be more beter then u think yall are.fact is mj has 2 world records wut do yall have haha

[CanadaKid666]

Umm, "America" also has the most sore loosers in the world....proven fact, :) what you are saying doesnt make any sense ...nobody can start off a 100m race at top speed! ...

[gatorboy2606]

lol america ur talkin about canadians to haha faggot stop talkin about ur own kind. fag

[xctrackohion2012]

what event was that?

[adamus77]

This race didnt need to take place. The fastest man in the world was always the 100m champion. Problem was that year the States got blown away, so all of a sudden they start claiming a 200/400m runner the fastest. Worst of all, Bailey broke the 100m world record, and that still wasnt good enough. Johnson was a machine, but if an american sprinter would have won the 100m while setting a record i think its safe to say the american media would be claiming their 100m champ the worlds fastest man.

[thelegend2626]

lol im not even going to look at your profile but im guessing ur canadian. it seems all like to bash on the U.S dont hate cuz cant hang.

[adamus77]

What...so are you going to argue my point? "dont hate cuz cant hang" is a little vague.

[thelegend2626]

lol im not trying to argue. im just saying who really decides what event makes the fasest man. 100m ?? why cuz its the shortest race and determines top end speed so why leave off 200 and 400 ??

[myk010]

DB babyyyyyyy.... the fastest man in the world, so pathetic how johnson pussied out.patheitc american, HAHAHHA

[sportdude08]

its funny u tlak shit on johnoson yes i think mj maybe faked it but thats not to hate on him this was 150m mj best race is the 400 had it been the 400 then ur ass wouldnt be tlakin that shit cuz db would of got his ate up now huh

[myk010]

funny how he walked after his supposed cramp. weak johnson. so typical. hahaha, bailey killed him, he already passed him when his leg hurt, i love the interview after with johnson "people can think what they want" cry cry cry

[sportdude08]

lmfao he didnt walk u idiot. he didnt even trian for 2 months afte rthis occured wow shows how much u know.this is 150m MJ runs 200/400 that b like putting DB in a 400 he would get his ass ate up. loser

[Duke159753]

MJ is a Punk.. he got beat by the best.. it was already over when he pulled up Lame...

[sportdude08]

it figures ur a canadian.Its funny how all candains hate on miachela johnson.When DB can pull of 200 and 400 records then u can say stuff untill then much love for db ut mj owns him.

[SchackDaddy2010]

And how many people have actually ever heard of Donovan Bailey? Who many gold medals does he have? How many does Michael have? How many world records does Donovan own? How many does Michael? And you called MJ a punk why? To make yourself feel good and seem bad ass. DIPSHIT, you obviously know nothing of track!

[Duke159753]

easy Bud.. im talking about this Video.. MJ talked soo much shyt before the race and pulled up lame... CMON... and are you kidding me.. sayin who hasnt heard of Donovan Bailey.. who knows nothin about Track

[SchackDaddy2010]

You know nothing of track and yes Im saying I haven't ever heard of Donovan FUCKING Bailey.

[sportdude08]

no body knows donovna bailey unless ur form cnada. everyone knows MJ world wide. even teens. teens prlly dont even know who he is that r form canada.put DB in the 400 he would get his ass ate up easilly haha

[myk010]

i'm not gonna get into a non-sense arguement with you. you think just cuz everyone knows bout johnson in the u.s. that means that the whole world knows bout him, yeah get off your high horse. and it's funny how th fastest man in the world was always who wins the 100m but seeing as a canadian won it for once,americans decided it's the 200 and 400m who were the fastest men in the world. look at the race, bailey was killing him, way before mj's leg cramped up. there's no arguing, it's all on video.

[sportdude08]

wow ur a faggot everyone worl wid does know him u dumbass. i could care less about this race its not MJ race itss wut i have been sayin. Put it this way DB only does 100m if u put him in the 400 its ove rand done with mj will make him look liek a babay haha fag

[myk010]

good arguement, nothing made sense to me, but good arguement. you win. is that what your lil immature mind wants to.why do people argue opinions. and you arguewith me, even though ON VIDEO, he beat him on a one on one, regardless of injury,it means, he's better and in better shape, what can i tell you.

[sportdude08]

if u so matture then why do u get in to conv. tryiny to argie wow fuckin little ass kid grow up.yes DB won do u not understand wut im sayin or are u a illeterate dumb motherfucker. im saying if DB ran the 400 he wouldnt beat MJ fag go fuck ur husband bitch

[adamus77]

hey sportdude, you need less sport, more schooldude.

[thenextreggie]

another video!!! it must suck being you. no one does like you.

[sportdude08]

hahah cool owned fag!!!

[zaaktt]

midway he heard that the doping test was waiting for him at the finish line.

[ellissmith23]

nice one. but i think it would've been close at the end michael still had a chance

[Jimmybangkok]

Bailey bounced him like a ho

[xbox360noob]

Man Mj wouldve won that hands down hes the fastest guy ever !

[Jimmybangkok]

haha noob he was clearly losing when he faked that cramp

[bandv31]

i am sorry that you are delusional. the video speaks for it self.DB was winning from the start.MJ's mouth wrote checks his ass couldn't cash.

[RomiiAKAGiggles]

Yess Donovan

[JohnJRambo11]

Johnson bottled it.

[daxman]

johnson was catching him, check the side angle just before he pulls up. What u reckon?

[rainman3070]

fuck that he was catching. he flushed his accomplishmnets down the toilet in one race, because he couldn't loss like a man.

[AB5309]

biggest let down race of all time.

[uncydave]

man, he gave that shit up like a bitch
