Meanwhile, there happened to be a debate on who is the fastest between an NFL athlete and a soccer player. Football phenom Chad Johnson downplayed Kylian Mbappe in terms of athleticism.

Pro football and soccer are two of the most diverse games that demand incredible strength and endurance. One thing is common between them, and that is speed. In fact, pace plays an essential role in all kinds of sports.

Often players in the sports fraternity, specifically between the NFL and soccer, have a debate about their skill sets. Former NFL superstar Chad Johnson joined the FOX studio, among other panelists to discuss scccer on game nights.

Being an avid fan of a spherical ball, the veteran was challenged by one of the panelists to predict who would win between him and Kylian Mbappe in a 100m sprint.

Surprised Johnson, without a second thought picked himself. He referred to his past treadmill skills where he breached the 25 miles hour mark.

“It ain’t no 60. I’m gonna get out in the first 20. I’m winning first. Did you just not see me running? Not long ago, that was this year. Where I ran 25 miles per hour.” Johnson asked the panelists, who couldn’t believe his predictions.

“I’m talking about the treadmill thing. How fast is that? It’s 25 miles an hour. I am just as fast. I think you guys have never seen me run. That’s the problem.” he added, downplaying the 23-year-old Mbappe, who has been phenomenal this year.
