What a bitch said:
On the very last question, why does Maurice say that he would have ran a very fast time in a race that he didnt get to finish? Its easy for him to say he would have ran a fast time because no one will ever know the truth. So annoying.
Maybe you should do some research before posting idiotic comments like that. Maurice ran 9.82 in that race and his time from 0-80m was 0.06s faster than when he ran his 9.79 WR, so it's not implausible that he would have run close to 9.70.

I think this was quite honest from Maurice. Too honest and unbiased for the most delicated people (reference here to his last paragraps). But in the beginning he told about sprinters of different eras which was a good point - times are dropping down ´cos of various matters and people on the top change...

I do think he has a tiny bit of maybe envy in his bones because Tyson is amazing. He didn't even think of Tyson until they mentioned him. Maurice needs to stop and just appreciate the competition and stop agreeing with all the hype. He can't even back up his arguements on why he wants Usain to win

This isn't quite the "Bolt Era" YET. He had a super human 2008! But to have your own era like Carl and Maurice, Bolt still has to win a few more WC and make some noise in 2012.
Tyson did enough in 2007 (double world champ), set the american record, ran the fastest 100m time in any condition by a human being. If tyson runs strong here, beating bolt in 1 of the 2 sprint races, it is still his "era" to get.
Good luck Tyson!!

Don't give his opinion too much credence. It's just hype.

Oh my freaking gosh dog, Maurice is a hater. Why hate on your country? Come on you could have put Tyson in your top 8, obviously you not that competitive you lost on the relay and you were right there. I think Tyson will greatly prove hisself. Thanks and have a blessed day.
