Footage has revealed what Noah Lyles did after racing YouTube sensation IShowSpeed for $100,000.

In a recent video posted on YouTube, Team USA superstar Lyles, who won the 100m gold medal and 200m bronze medal in the Paris Olympic Games was involved in a 50m sprint race with IShowSpeed.

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.

After the pair crossed the finish line, they watched footage of the race and IShowSpeed was heard saying: "Let’s go again. Let’s do a rematch… You hear him? You hear him? He didn’t even win!”

Lyles simply replied: "I don't do rematches."

Reacting on social media, one fan said: "Noah Lyles couldn’t believe IShowSpeed almost beat him in their race and declined to race him again."

Another tweeted: "Calling himself world champion can barely beat a streamer."

A third fan added: "Imagine speeed with Olympic training, Noah Lyles on fraud watch once again."

Someone else wrote: "It really took an Olympic athlete to beat speed, that just shows how fast he is man."

A fifth commented: "Bro is afraid to ruin his reputation. Imagine being the fastest person in the world as the only thing you known for and speed beating you in a race."

Another fan said: "Speed was almost the fastest person in the world."

After winning the race, Lyles stated he would be donating the $100,000 prize money to charity.

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."
