asafa powell 9.74 new world record

[jackshit49]

Great athlete just a pitty he cannot produce these times when it realy matters at the world or olympic finals

[angusyoung20]

what you ppl dont know is right as they said go. someone yelled cops!!!!

[juninhopernambucano3]

rieti?

[joaorio12]

he don´t is natching comparated with BOLT

[LeafsBiggestFan]

SSTTEERROOIIDDSS

[22GHOST91]

@LeafsBiggestFan leafs suck shit so pick a new team... and thats fucking training bro

[NeoOsiris19]

It was Asafa's mental game that really has held him back at all his big meets and why his career is on the down spiral. Athletically hes probably the most explosive guy off the gun. He just breaks on the big show.

[whitehawk38]

i know when he raced tyson gay twice he slowed down at the end because tyson passes him, he never finshes hard if he isn't first.

[destruktiv73]

9.58 unglaublich

[0x8055]

amazing.. this day he could easilly the 9,69 bolt got in last olympic games.. he relaxed too much in the end though..

[Frankie1060]

Powell will always be the bridesmaid in the 100m. He will never win outside of commonwealth games competition. Pity really, cos i believe he is the quickest.....if he gets to run by himself

[Bigz2601]

y da fuk do dese niggas always ease up when they running extrordinary times

[aarondude0126]

because there good at sprinting

whit people are better at swimming

have you ever senn a black swimmer before?

[Bigz2601]

no u got me all wrong when i said niggas i was refering to black ppl im black my self i was talkin abt spritners in general

[aarondude0126]

iight kewl

[Shototrack]

I did not that I follow it much but I did on a relay team in bejing - for swimming

[whitehawk38]

yea at my school. my friend is black and he can swim.

[E21K10]

asafa powell is great if he had more confidence he would easily pull off a sub 9.7 time

[diaoxxx]

the commentator sucks man if i were him i would scream

[jeff1011011]

People need to stop hating on Asafa- yes he has choked in some big-time situations but the guy is human. He is a great athlete who just hasn't handled pressure very well so far in his career. I hope he can round into form in time for the world championships, and perform his best on the big stage.

[TheRazzy99]

He Eased Up at the end and still got the WR

[johnsmarkland]

I dunno, I just don't dig asafa. he's a pretty decent guy, but he aint got no heart...to soft for this business. don't be a mercenarie, by winning grand prixs, run for honor & glory by claiming gold medals (olympics & world championships...not reitti italy.

[johnnyjohnboy1980]

The guy cares and has heart, don't judge him because he freezes in major tournaments. That does not make hm a mercenarie - it means he is flawed, but let us not forget he is a olympic champion and world record holder to boot (china 4x100m relay). How dare you insult someone who has achieved so much. It's horrible of you. Respect this sprinting phenomenon. Wow, Gay Vs Bolt Vs Powel will be amazing this summer. I can't wait. I just pray they are all clean from drugs.

[johnsmarkland]

Ah ah! I respect ur comments....but the guy is not a patriot for country, but his own ideals sir. If it weren't for Bolt he wouldn't clock the fastest anchor leg in history. A gay, bolt showdown? yes! but please omit asofta....softa? get it? He ran 5th two olympics ago, then returned with another dismal performance? No no no! noway I could revere this guy. This guy doesn't go club hoppin, Bolt does! This guy doesn't womanize Bolt does! I don't condone Bolt's behavior, but I'd choose him anyday

[420knuckles]

check em for dope !

[htownhomie06]

if he can just hold it 2gether 1 time @ a major, i actually believe he can best Bolt in a WCs 100 in WR time. Bolt won in Beijing so effortlessly, a major loss could make him angry enough 2 go out there & put a mark down our grandkids will be talking about (9.51?)

[HeadDominion]

poor bastard, he has everything but an olympic indiv 100 gold

[vikikis]

asafa got 9.72 he soon get 9.65

[juninhopernambucano3]

no!

[drfager01]

THAT GOES TO TELL YOU IN SPORTS YOU ALWAYS EXECUTE PROPERLY HE ASAFA DIDNT DO THAT, AND AT THE OLYMPICS THE PINNACLE OF THE SPORT, THE BEST HE COULD DO IS A 9.90? THATS REDICULOUS FOR A MAN THAT COULD GO 9.74 WALKING AT THE END, ASAFA HAS PAINTED HIMSELF AS A JEKYL AND HYDE PERFORMER.WHO MIGHT NEVER RUN IN THE 9.7s AGAIN MAKELESS BREAK BOLTS RECORD,HE HAD THAT CHANCE HE BLEW IT.

[minnielarz]

He said it himself in an interview that maybe he's not built for the many qualifying rounds that he has to go through in the olympics. Maybe that's it for him. Who knows...

[HoneyIEducatedTheWeb]

I know this is off topic ;) but if Asafa had kept going he'd have beaten 9.69. Yes Bolt eased up, while achieving that, but I'm not quite sure Bolt has an iron grip on the 100m yet.

[RunningRiot09]

the reason he eased up is cuz this was a prelim, not a final, the comentator even says "second heat".. not the final

[HoneyIEducatedTheWeb]

No shit, Sherlock.

[drfager01]

nowords12,you might want to check the japanese,if you look a a picture of their sprinters 15 years ago they look anarexic compare to today,so their lies no doubt they are juicing, blacks are generally way more musculer than whites and asians,whites today do a lot of cardio and eat low fat salads but they still posess puny flat muscles,that dont help them to dominate a power event such as the sprints,case in point the same steroids that help them win mr.olympia cannot propel them to a 100m title.

[vikikis]

i think all are the same black= white, just some of them have steroids injections.

[nowords12]

not true at all, you honestly believe of all the white countries around the world who compete that they dont take steroids. you gotta be kidding me. some indivduals are just faster then other individuals. natural talent and hard work, stop the hate.

[SSone97]

LoL, I look at the comments and we have theoretical discussions about black people, good and bad. Must have been a jealous non-black tired of seeing the manliness running through our veins. It's gotta suck for some people to see blacks dominate the sprints like this.

[mshalopd]

Yeah black people are usually the best runners in the world, and they have contributed a lot to the world, but so has everyone else. the Chinese invented gunpowder, the romans and greeks invented countless things. In fact the ancient greeks developed a machine at one point but sadly didn't use it because they had so many servents and slaves. And don't forget Di Vinci who drew up the blueprints to a helicopter in the 1500's that actually worked when we tested it. It's the individual not race.

[drfager01]

...its quite obvious that we blacks are one of the most intelligent beings that grace the earth, without these inventions imagine how your life will be today, we use these things everyday. for racist to come on this channel and degrade our historical achievements,is obsurd, they are clearly retarded and unaware of the facts, the facts that eats away at them like the aids of the mind they seem to be infected with called hate.my advise to whites is racism is a joke come with something better.

[SeeNoNachos]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me, mr. youtube black guy!! *thumbs-up sign* :D

[drfager01]

...just slavery to the world, blacks in america has contibuted greatly, as far as inventions to america, to help make it the powerhouse it has become. with notable names as vivian thomas,he was the first to enter the chest of a human and founded a cure for blue babies via open heart surgery,a black is credited for the invention of the stop light,a black man is credited for airbrakes,a black man is credited for the invention of peanut butter,a black man is also credited for the elevator.

[drfager01]

frankly i have come across more racism on you tube in 1 hour than i have experienced all my life. for blacks it doesn't and shoudn't matter what others think,they will be judges and haters because our athletic brillance,thats just pure jealousy,simple, because they have been wiped from the athletic history books,but black folks should not get too happy yet.the exact opposite is happenning as we speak in the non athletic world. for instance,blacks has contributed far more than just athletics and

[drfager01]

who cares,truthfully!yes maybe blacks are a little fucked up,imagine you the whitey living in someones household where they keep making new rules to destroy and define you. the pressure builds and makes you stray away from productivity. that environment breeds lazyness and defiance of the rule maker. but all in all,athletics is where blacks feel more comfortable right now,its where the rules are black and white.so when whites create a gray area in sports you will begin to see less success blacks

[flynetz]

LOL but I also hear italian commentator!!!

[ballinwaves]

and by da way if u didnt kno over in africa we were one of da greatest countries to ever establish a great civilization. so b4 u make racist comments think bout wat ur race has done. i dont like racismI HATE it. so stop postin racist comments

[ballinwaves]

im gettin sick of all dese ppl on da internet sayin negative stuff bout ppl especially us the black. u all need 2 sick it up and move on. yes a black guy won da races and den da nxt day u c all dese racist commments on youtube. idk kno wat da world is cummin 2 but it need 2 get better

[vikikis]

BOLTS IS THE KING IN THE 100M CASTLE

[desgirl19]

Isn't it funny that anytime a person of color achieve greatness that some racist asshole have to come up with something negative to say, you never hear them say job well done nothing like that, it's always negative. This must be their worst year ever, NOT ONLY HAS A BLACK JAMAICAN SMASH THE WORLD RECORD BUT THIS MIGHT BE THE YEAR THAT WE HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT, oh my this must be looking mighty scary for all the racists in the world, guess what get over it because we are here to stay.

[PabasamDee]

Well said.

[desgirl19]

I am happy that you agree with me

[vikikis]

yeah, in beijing asafa got no medal. he wast 4. now he slowed down, bolt is up to date

[PICKER132]

everyone type in the search box - usain bolt!

[vikikis]

someday, one white man will defeat the black ones in the sprint, and will set a new world record, trust me, that will be very soon.

[90774677]

you racist morons.....you are not better than them......stupid

[Qirm]

black people are genetically faster so u lot r just being racist vikikis u chat shit

[fightjunge24]

@vikikis what u write there is all wrong. itnever had been 9.63. maybe 9.73! and powell was 5th in the olympics

[JTANKDAMVP]

@vikikis lol. its a shame u neva saw/ knew/ predicted bolt doing what he dune

[Redman092000]

@vikikis lol i dont think so yall black people are slowly taking over sports. we got basketball football soccer and golf and pretty soon baseball and hockey as well as mma

[asmilesa]

Announcer: Powell was third from left, not third from right, dumbass ... how easy your job must be ...

[joecandito]

usain bolt then tgay then powell. thats whats gonna happen in bejing

[vikikis]

he missed his last 10 m , if he wouldn't, the time would be 9.63.

[briangormley]

he didnt even push himself at the end

[thedude98765]

hes got slave feet :)

[thejonnyjoker]

i run 100 mts in 9 54. with opposite wind

[dondonkeys3]

the wind is legal, but the steroids ain't...

[sicksuh]

Asafa a di man but gay a di real ting when it come to di big stage.

[vikikis]

gay fast bus asafa will be #1 in beijing

[palimonka]

TYSON GAY 9.68. WATTTTTTTTTTTTT

[5Oskar5]

Commentator doesn't sound very happy

[vikikis]

not much but has

[filahohi]

does the wind really have that much of an effect on the runner's performance ?

[palimonka]

yea. alot.

[jaimesandoval1988]

Against who?  NO ONE!

[avorachak127]

not the record anymore lol

[Skrillozillion]

I don't run

I take my time and walk to where I need to go.

[vikikis]

yes he is calm when running.

[bhanchodok]

he always slows down at the end....

[tomasgtebarek]

i bet 9.7 or 9.69 if he went through and didn't slow down

[assasin990]

Asafa Powell is amazing...he even starded slowing down at 90m...you can see it.

amazing....he is better then GAY

[foxychocho]

he should have ran hard all the way and the world record would still be his.

[vikikis]

however, black mem are faster you have to admit it look at all record holders did you see any white running faster than 9.90? i did not.

asafa you better get 9.64 and own that BOLT!1

[learntoplayy]

Omg stop all this "black people" talk about being strong.. You cant say that a black man is normally stronger than a white man. And knock of the story's about being afraid of water because of slave ships!? It's kinda lame in my opinion

[utubeicon]

That someone was USAIN BOLT of JAMAICA.

Big up Jamaica every time. We simply have the best sprinters in the world.(period).

[ghostface02]

not any more lol. someone today ran a 9.72 and it was all over the news.

[vikikis]

yes, asafa is the best!

[bluephoenix89]

you are only fast swimmers because balck people have grown to subconciosuly fear the water because of the slave ships. Just like the speed and power was passed down in the genes when our ancestors where bred together like cattle. Putting the strongest with the strongest. Fear was also passed down.

[Niazkingafg]

its not allways about race, but black people are naturally strong. its something that gets passed down in their genes all the way back in slave times.

[vikikis]

yes but no white ran faster than 9.8 or even 9.6

[jethrow4]

alright well i have to disagree with all you sayin that white people arnt and cant be as fast as black people. me and my teammate are both white and have beat plenty of black people with real good times.

[senorpachangaz]

If you take 100 random white people and 100 random black people, and make them run a 100m sprint, I guarantee you the black people will have a faster average time...Now, if you administer them an IQ test, that's a different story.

[legendoflink3]

With an iQ test its not a different story. If you take same dumb ghetto black ppl and some dumb red neck white ppl it will be the same. if you take some smart black ppl and some smart white ppl. it will be the same... A lot of ppl are smart from all races. All that matters is what you focus on being smart at. remember that.

[senorpachangaz]

That's why I'm talking about taking a random sample, genius. Sure, if you take a tall Mexican and put him next to a short Norwegian, the Mexican is going to be taller. But in a random sample of 100 people, the Mexicans' average height will be lower. Just like, on average, black dudes will be more athletic but not as smart. I'm not saying they don't physically have the capacity to be smart, but their culture has embraced stupidity for years and years now and now they're reaping the results.

[legendoflink3]

Im pretty sure you know there are more succesful black people today than there ever was and not just in entertainment and sports. So your pretty stupid for saying that blacks empbraced stupidity. Its just that black people are coming from a long hard struggle that still continues and even with that uphill battle they still end up becoming better. You can't expect it to happen overnight. I don't see red necks getting smarter over night? hmm 1 question...What race do you think i am? is it obvious?

[Sexyaeisha2000]

Senorpachanangaz,you are a fucking racist! If u take any black person and compare he/she with yourself i am sure they will do way better in an IQ test than your stupid ass.The colour of a person skin doesn't defined how smart they are.Kiss my black ass!!!

[senorpachangaz]

First, my name is not senorpachanangaz. It's senorpachangaz. Second, "doesn't defined" should be "doesn't define". So, thank you for making my point, Aeisha. Clearly, you're not very smart. I'm guessing you're not very sexy either.

[Sexyaeisha2000]

senorpachangaz,u can kiss my black ass.I look better than your mother and the whole of your mother fucking generations.Fuck u asshole!

[Sexyaeisha2000]

From the way in which u speak i can tell that you are nothing but a low life mother fucker and it's obvious you need to be educated.White trash!!!!! U can't walk in my fucking shoes no day bcuz i'm way better than u.I can bet u didn't even finish high school,but u r here trying to compare urself with others.

[xxtrooper117]

haha thts fucked up

[darksttar999]

im white and im faster then all the blk ppl in my grade

[vikikis]

what grade are you?

[olympicrodriguez]

man this commentator sucks. the italian dude was much better

[vikikis]

yes afasa is the best, but one day the wihte man will beat his record , you believe me!

[Gostfreak123]

White men and woman are know where close to being as fast as black men and woman

[rainbowsixjosh]

True but white men and women are fast swimmers

[datpan]

wow really .. retard

[lazy0year]

wow....

[bojaro]

he's coming to australia and my friends gonna try and ask him why he slows down in the last ten meters

[MALCB15]

[yhnell]
