Laulauga ?Lagi? Tausaga-Collins amazes Michael B. Jordan

Laulauga Tausaga-Collins is known for specializing in throwing events, which includes shot put, discus throw, and hammer throw. Lagi recently conquered the Budapest World Championships and joined the ranks of Sha?Carri Richardson, Noah Lyles, and Ryan Crouser. The victory at the Hungarian capital marked her first World Championship win, and it sent her happiness levels through the roof. This one meant a lot for her as she broke her own previous best by nearly four meters.?

The 25-year-old athlete couldn?t contain her excitement and energy at the post-win interview she appeared in. Lagi described the ?whirlwind of emotions? she faced while competing against the greatest global athletes. Fans were totally reeled in by the childlike enthusiasm of Lagi and commented on the video. However, fans were thrilled to see that Michael B. Jordan had also dropped a comment on the video.

A tweet by Throwers Universe on X (formerly Twitter) showed a screenshot of the comment made by Michael B. Jordan on Collins’ interview. The 36-year-old actor posted a laughing emoji followed by the words ?This makes me smile.? Fans liked and shared the comment made by Jordan and agreed with him as well.

While the stunning performances of all athletes are a spectacle to behold, watching them in high spirits is equally satisfying. Several users felt an instant connection with the American champion after her emotionally charged interview. Fans found the reason for Lagi?s extreme happiness in the fact that she wasn?t the one who was initially winning. The WAC gold medal did not come easily in her lap.

From the twelfth position to the first

Lagi carried herself with great confidence in the tournament. However, she was also aware that her greatest competition was her fellow national teammate Valarie Allman.

The 28-year-old Allman triumphed over the world at the Tokyo Olympics and won the gold medal. On the other hand, Lagi had just won the 2022 NACAC championship. She persevered and climbed her way from the twelfth position to the fifth, and then to the first position. However, the contest wasn?t over till her most fierce competition was out of turn to change the game.?

?We don’t know. Val is that girl, you know, I’ve seen her be down and out and boom! She hits one! And so, like going waiting for her to go probably had me the most sickest I’ve ever felt in my life!??said the world champion.
