There has been a LOT of cheating and doping in track, especially in the sprints... and NO ONE has ever done what Bolt has done to records.
In my opinion the manner it which he is smashing records actually makes the cheating allegations fatuous. Why juice up to get an extra 1/100 of a second when youre already 3 metres faster than anyone in the world?
And look at him? He isnt bulked up, he isnt a huge guy? he runs in a vest that is about two sizes too big for him.... Usain Bolt is (imo) simply a once in a lifetime athlete, he is simply a beast.
When he ran 9.58 ... fuck me... I mean Dwayne Chambers juiced for years and was running, what 9.9? Ben Johnson ran 9.8 and was off his tits on the juice. I just cant see it. I dont see him as a cheat.
If he is, track is dead...
But like I sad somewhere else... Bakele has a record that is also ridiculous and no one is saying he is juicing. Tyranesh Debarber (badly sic I know) is in a class of her own... no thinks she is on steroids... Michael Phelps is palpably ahead of the whole field in swimming, there are none of these "too good to be true" allegations about him... whats the difference? That he's white and American?
