Noah Lyles issued a cold response when asked whether he would race IShowSpeed again.

Last month, Olympic gold medalist from the Paris Games Lyles took on YouTube sensation IShowSpeed in a 50m sprint race.

Despite being a professional athlete and one of the fastest people on the planet, Lyles only managed to just beat IShowSpeed to the finish line.

In a recent interview posted on social media, Lyles was asked: "You went viral for beating IShowSpeed in a race. What per cent effort do you think you were going at?"

The Team USA superstar replied: "20%. He (IShowSpeed) was giving full effort you know Kudos for him."

Later in the video, Lyles was quizzed on whether he would take part in another race with IShowSpeed, the 27-year-old said: "I think I'm moving on to bigger and better things you know.

"Let's find somebody faster." You can watch the footage below.


Earlier in the year, Lyles laid out his plans to become the fastest man ever.

He said to The Inside Track of World Athletics podcast, via MARCA: "I'm lifting a lot more weight in training. My body is taking on a lot more load.

"When I achieved the treble in Budapest, I was very shocked at how my body held up. Every time I go to athletics competitions, I ask myself, 'How many races can I participate in?'"

Lyles added: "If my body holds up and I'm in the right mental space, I can do a sub-44 or even sub-43-second relay in the 4x400m.

"I definitely have my sights set on the American record in the 100 meters and even the world record."

Lyles won the gold medal in the 100m at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games but was beaten by Botswana's Letsile Tebogo and fellow team USA star Kenneth Bednarek in the 200m.
