Usain Bolt didn't hesitate when asked if he would do better in NFL than Tyreek Hill would in the Olympics

Usain Bolt didn't hesitate when asked if he would do better in NFL than Tyreek Hill would in the Olympics

Usain Bolt has also challenged the NFL star to a race....

Usain Bolt was in no doubt when asked who would fair better if he swapped sports with NFL superstar Tyreek Hill.

Hill and Bolt have gone back and forth multiple times in recent years, with the Miami Dolphins wide receiver claiming he could beat the world record-holder in a 100m sprint.

30-year-old Hill is widely regarded as the fastest NFL player ever, clocking in a 4.29-second 40-yard dash, while Bolt is widely regarded as the fastest man EVER with 9.58 in the 100m.

Speaking to NBC Sports back in 2020, Bolt was asked how Hill would fair if he took his pace to the running track, and the eight-time Olympic gold medalists didn't even have to think about it.

“No, there’s no chance,” Bolt said.

“A lot of people think it’s about one-off runs, but it’s rounds that really show who you are and the amount of work you do. So I think no, he wouldn’t make the team.”

The Jamaican then revealed he would jump at the chance to play in the NFL and would back himself to do a job catching passes from Aaron Rodgers.

“I think my hands are good, and I know I’ve got the speed," he claimed.

Speaking to TMZ in 2021, Bolt broke down what would happen if the pair eventually decided to settle their differences on the track.

"He's in shape, I mean I work out too but I would need to step up my training so it would all depend on my schedule if you know what I mean," he revealed.

"I've been retired for a while so I need to get my legs going again, I mean I've still got speed of course but I would have to get it going."

The pair have also spoken about the prospect of putting an Olympic gold and Super Bowl ring on the line to up the stakes, but Bolt isn't convinced Hill is game.

"I don't think he would, he's only got one [Super Bowl ring] so he's probably scared haha," he joked.

Bolt was also pushed to give his verdict on how he thinks the proposed race (over 70 yards) would go.

"I still think I'd get him at 40 [yards] but I mean to be safe you've always got to be extra safe you know what I mean but I do still think I get him at 40," he predicted.
