Similarly, Beckham himself felt stoked to meet Usain Bolt as well. He took to his Instagram stories to reshare Bolt’s post and wrote “great to see the big man in town”. Clearly, the two legendary athletes loved seeing each other and catching up in Florida.
Bolt vs Tyreek Hill possibly coming closer
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has lately been challenging many athletes to sprint-offs. In fact, the ‘cheetah’ also challenged Usain himself at the NHL All-Star game.
However, Bolt had initially seemed to refuse the challenge. The Jamaican cited Hill’s loss to other linebacking NFL players as reason enough to not race Hill.
Now, though, things are heating up again, as Bolt just recently released a new video in which he seems to be training quite hard. It is no secret that since his retirement in 2017, Bolt has allowed himself to get a little out of shape.
