Jamaican youngster has fired warning shots at his opponents including Noah Lyles and Ferdinand Omanyala as he looks forward to following in the footsteps of Usain Bolt.
"I’ll always have respect for his performances. I was merely pointing out that he has flaws, and I don’t think he knew that.
“Myself and Jake Wightman have shown where those flaws are. And I think he has some flaws in the manners realm as well.
“I’m not saying I’m a better time-trialer than him, because I don’t know if I am. But I think come championship day, I am the best athlete in the world. And no Let’s Run article is going to tell me otherwise,” Kerr said.
He added that the two have met and spoken before but going forward, he does not think they will be having many more conversations.
Meanwhile, Kerr has already made plans on how he will conquer the race at the Stade de France. He has already set the time he would like to run and hopefully win an Olympic gold medal.
“I’ve already written out my tactics and I know what I am doing in Paris. It’s one of those things for me: I am very good at that one day, and peaking at the right time.
