Defeating Gatlin Would Be the Greatest Thing Bolt Has Ever Done Says Ato Boldon
During a recently held press conference in China’s capital Bolt appeared to be in a relaxed and joyful mood.
He also seemingly has little doubts he will conquer Justin Gatlin at the World Championships.
Bolt stated; ‘I’m at my best, that’s all I can say,‘I’m in great form, I’m happy with where I’m at. I’ve been running good and my start has come together at the right time. I’m happy and ready to go.’
‘I have a pool of 10 recently retired top sprinters and all of them were backing Gatlin.
‘Only one of them changed their mind on the Beijing outcome based on London’s race. The rest of us went, “Yes, OK, Bolt is better than he has been all year”, but we’d not seen anything that convinces us that Bolt ought to start that race as favourite. That goes for the 200m as well.
‘If Bolt is able to prove me and a lot of other people wrong this time round, it will be in the same vein as Muhammad Ali versus George Foreman and the Rumble in the Jungle where every expert said Foreman by a mile was too good. Even if this is not a fast time, if Bolt can find a way to beat Gatlin given Gatlin’s last 12 months, it would be the greatest thing he’s ever done — forget the world records.’

Go chuck off…Bolt all day everyday…badmind is active.
Clearly Ato Boldon have amnesia, so here’s a reminder…https://youtu.be/gBY8ChWVL7U
Ato has very good points, and he’s speaking from an objective viewpoint. He’s one of Bolt’s biggest supporters. My curiosity is how is it Gatlin is running his personal best times at his age? This is unpresidented, and with his history it wouldn’t suprise anyone if he is using some type of PED that is undetected. We’re all hoping Bolt beats Gatlin, but if Gatlin wins, he will be accused of cheating regardless.
Give it a rest Ato…I don’t care how good Gatlin is, he is still a 2 time cheat…yeah yeah. I still remember your disrespectful comment when Bolt beat his chest at the finish line.
Ato bolt guh jump in front of a trailer and all who support the garbage that just came out him mouth , beating gatlin will be just another win in the books , how can you compare drugs to a pure natural born runner
Gatlin behaves like he is an American. I remembering celebrating with Gay and Gatlin for beating Powell. Gatlin fi go way
I would agree with Ato to an extent based on this athletic season but……”mi ago shut him up now cause wen BOLT beat gatlin it will jus b another victory” so i rubbish his remarks about “beating gatlin will the greatest thing bolt would have ever done.” Ato, How can beating a man that you have beaten before in a race becomes the greatest thing to do?
Bolt world records will stand the test of time, the greatest thing Gatlin can do is to break them records. To be the man you have to beat them records.
boldon go suck you mother and leave bolt alone.
Rubbish, Bolt has already beaten Gatlin. How can beating Garlin again be the greatest thing he has ever done?! It doesn’t matter who is speaking, such rubbish should not repeated.
Where is Ato Boldon…..????
I would love to hear what ATO has to say now
Again I say Atto guh chuck off..badmind guh drown unnu self….Bolt to d wooorrrld….#winnings
Ha haaaaaa…last laugh….chuck off Oto…
Remember he’s a Trinidadian ever hating so no one talk no crap about he’s a bolt fan? He just jump on the wagon.
