“Noah is really not on my level,” said Fred Kerley recently. Now, Kerley is not known to be someone who can keep himself away from controversies. After all, his fallout with ASICS has been a well-known fiasco in the track realm. In a recent segment of The Pivot Podcast, Kerley fired some fresh shots at Noah Lyles. And those were some serious allegations! Kerley believes that despite Lyles winning the Olympic gold, he has not endured anything close to what Kerley has gone through. And while this controversy is still pretty much alive, Noah Lyles himself decided to add more fuel to the fire.
Appearing on the Beyond The Records podcast, Lyles made it quite personal. Being diagnosed with asthma in childhood, Lyles did not have an easy route to success either. Day in and day out, the Olympic sprinter had to take care of his asthma attacks and also balance his dreams of becoming a track legend. After all, who can forget Lyles’ vigorous panting on the track as he won the 200m bronze in Paris? Thus, according to Lyles, each athlete does have some distinctive struggles.
Speaking on the Fred Kerley topic, Lyles stated that Kerley can say whatever he wants to. However, he won’t comment a lot on the matter because Lyles claimed to have only watched a particular segment. Lyles immediately acknowledged Kerley’s words and immediately pointed out his own struggles. He stated, “You’re right i never went through that just as much as he never was staying you’re right I never went through that just as much as he never was staying up in the hospital every night with asthma.” Lyles continued saying how he had no idea about whether he would be able to live to see another day or not.
This is a developing story…
