π₯ A Rivalry Reignited
NFL star and Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has once again questioned Noah Lylesβ claim to being the worldβs fastest man. Their rivalry, which first gained traction in 2024, has resurfaced following Lyles’ recent victory at the New Balance Grand Prix on February 2 in Boston.
π Lyles Dominates the 60m Sprint
At the prestigious indoor event, Lyles clocked 6.52 seconds to win the 60m sprint, finishing ahead of Terrence Jones (6.57s) and Olympic 100m champion Marcell Jacobs (6.60s).
However, it wasnβt just Lylesβ speed that made headlinesβhis provocative celebration did too. He unveiled his race bib, which read:
βTyreek could never.β
Lyles later doubled down on social media, posting a picture of himself holding the bib with the caption:
βLet me show you the worldβs fastest man.β
β‘ Tyreek Hill Claps Back
Hill wasted no time firing back, responding on X (formerly Twitter) with a sarcastic dig at Lyles:
βWho gave you that title? Your Wikipedia page?β
π Who Really Holds the Title of the Fastest Man?
Despite Lylesβ world and Olympic titles, the debate over the fastest man alive remains unresolved.
- Lyles’ fastest 100m time (9.79s) in the 2024 Paris Olympics final is impressive but does not make him the undisputed fastest.
- Jamaican sprinter Kishane Thompson clocked 9.77s at the 2024 Jamaican Olympic Trials, a time that remains the fastest recorded over 100m in recent years.
- Thompson has also made waves in indoor sprints, running 6.48s at the Central Hurdles Relays and Field meet.
These performances raise the question: Does being an Olympic champion automatically make Lyles the fastest, or does the title belong to the sprinter with the best time?
π Will Hill and Lyles Finally Race?
Tyreek Hill, known for his blazing speed on the football field, has long claimed he could outrun Lyles in a one-on-one race. However, despite their heated exchanges, a showdown between the two has yet to happen.
Lylesβ latest public taunts have only increased anticipation for a potential race, but whether it will ever take place remains unknown.
For now, the debate continues, fueling excitement among fans of both athletics and American football.
