IShowSpeed Confronts Defeat in $100,000 Race Against Olympian Noah Lyles
IShowSpeed, a prominent figure in the online content creation sphere, faced disappointment after competing in a high-stakes race organized by MrBeast against U.S. Olympian Noah Lyles.
The Challenge Begins
Renowned for his humorous antics and energetic streaming style, IShowSpeed, at just 19 years old, is also recognized for his athletic prowess. During a live stream, MrBeast and Lyles issued a challenge to Speed, offering a grand prize of $100,000 for the winner of a footrace. Initially reluctant due to the three-hour journey from Orlando to Florida, Speed quickly changed his mind, hopped in his car, and hit the road.
Ready for Action
Upon arriving at the track, IShowSpeed was clad in a Real Madrid soccer kit and holding a bottle of PRIME. He confidently declared to his viewers, “It’s time chat.” In a humorous twist, MrBeast appeared in a referee outfit, expressing disbelief at the upcoming race.
A Showdown with a Champion
Noah Lyles, a highly accomplished sprinter, Olympic gold medalist, and multiple-time national record holder, was ready to race. The trio exchanged playful banter, with Speed joking that he would change his name to “IShowSlow”for a day if he lost. They made their way to the starting line, where Speed employed tactics to get himself “in the zone,” like running around the track and performing backflips.
The Race Commences
As the race began, with MrBeast giving the countdown and firing the smoke gun, IShowSpeed took an early lead. However, Lyles soon surged ahead and crossed the finish line, finishing with a playful “jump” that added emphasis to his victory. Nonetheless, Speed controversially labeled the outcome a “tie” and boldly claimed that he “actually won” the race.
Post-Race Activities and Claims
“I’m the fastest man alive; that was a tie,” Speed insisted, challenging Lyles to a rematch. “If it were forty meters, I would have won, I promise you,” he added. However, Lyles dismissed Speed’s claims, asserting, “Everyone saw it on your stream; we’ve got video proof.”
Refusal to Back Down
When MrBeast prompted Speed to acknowledge Lyles as the “fastest man in the world,” Speed held firm, replying, “Raw speed, I’m faster, bro.” In a show of sportsmanship, Lyles extended an invitation for another race, giving Speed until July 2025 to improve his fitness. Fans are eagerly anticipating this rematch, so stay tuned for updates on their showdown.
