    Hahahaha.. Perfect response. Although I'm pretty sure Usain Bolt runs like a 3.8 forty-time.

    I don't think anyone in the NFL would come even close to Bolt.

    Bolt would leave Wallace in the dust. Wallace is fast but Bolt is a bullet. He tends to "let up" at the end of races and still wins and sets records

    Put Bolt in pads and lets see how he does then. I think Wallace can take him.

    Mike Wallace is an NFL wide receiver, Usain Bolt is a record setting gold medalist sprinter

    Mike Wallace is an "untrained" runner. Bolt is trained. Would be interesting to see what Wallace could do if he knew how to run right (Ike Taylor said the same thing). But Bolt has been beaten several times by the 5'11 Tyson Gay. Wallace is an inch or so taller. I think with training, if Wallace and Bolt ran 10 races, Wallace could take him in 5.

    Uhh. No. You guys are completely exaggerating this whole situation. There's no comparison between Usain Bolt and any NFL player. I think Bo Jackson ran the fastest ever forty time at 4.12. Usain Bolt's forty time is welll below 4.00

    He's fast but running is not a sport IMO...

    Wallace isn't an "untrained" runner. Sure, he hasn't had olympic or world-class level training, but he was in track, so he has been given the fundamentals.

    "Wallace stride is not correct, he doesn't run right." Anyway, that's what Ike Taylor said. Then Wallace said he knows, but he's not comfortable running the "by the book" stride. So even though he ran track, he admits he prefers running his way. I don't think there is a recorded time for the 40 yd dash for Bolt. But it would be interesting to see how quick he is. But if you watch his races, he usually doesn't start to break away from the pack until about the 50 meter mark...which is well beyond 40 yds... so his actual 40 time may not be superior.

    Well if Mike can out run him for 50 meters the only thing I can think of saying is " TOUCH DOWN ".

    Speed doesn't catch passes. Been a lot of speesters who can't catch. Fortunately, Wallace has both skills.
