present day ..from st.lucia JULIEN ALFRED GOLD !!! THANKS WE APPRECIATED THE ODDS DESPITE ALFRED RECORD AND PROJECTIONS WAS ALWAYS BETTER . LOVE FROM THE SMALL ISLAND STILL

[barackosama]

I think predicting is very fun and simultaneously very very difficult in any track event. It is possible to just get it litterly all wrong... last year i had kerley nr 3 in the 100m, couldnt be more wrong...

[colincolenso]

Jumpman, as a former National level decathlete in the 90's, your commentary is the best on youtube.

[TheCounterChris]

Crazy to learn that shotput is a jumping event and pole vault is a throwing event

[ndokwanwoko]

I watch your channel just cos you're hilarious 🤣🤣

[minavamp]

your correct prediction as follows: gold = 28%, silver = 17%, bronze = 28%. you predicted 1 out of 18 events 6% correctly.

[Sough]

Picking Julian Alfred for silver in the hundred based off her 200, then leaving her out of the metals in the 200, even though she doesn't have to compete against Shelly-Ann or Shacatri 😅

Jumpman, when my GOATS Ryan and Joe beat Leo at the Olympics I’m gonna need a formal apology for you ever doubting them and maybe a video dedicated just to the throws at the olympics. Also I think Jorinde Van Klinken is going to get bronze in the women’s discus, Sandra is older and has always struggled at global championships, it’s just when she was younger she was so much better than everyone else it didn’t matter, so I think it’s finally time for Jorinde to get a much deserved medal.

[rickjames]

I'll just be delusional and go for a wayde van nierkek bronze medal because i miss the way man used to dominate 2015-2016

I like squeezing in the shotput & discus in the Sprint and Jump predictions 👀👀

[daashikii]

Grace stark, a collegiate, is going to go to PARIS and win a silver. Almost not a chance. Especially when you factor in that she did well at trials at the same place she won ncaas. And didnt place first. Its gonna be tough for her to medal. The olympics is no joke. I have masai or any other seasoned pro.

[ajlorentz]

I just need to say I’ve been coming back here after every track and field event

[barath]

I have Julian Alfred for gold in 100m.
This will be her Olympics where she goes from Top10er to one of the main names we will talk about till 2028 - Like Jacobs and Kerley pre-2021.

My FULL somewhat biased predictions of all the most important Olympic events, the throws:

Men’s shot put:
1. Ryan Crouser 🐐
2. Joe Kovacs
3. Leonardo Fabbri

Women’s shot put:
1. Chase Jackson
2. Sarah Mitton
3. Jessica Schilder

Men’s discus:
1. Mykolas Alekna
2. Kristjan Ceh
3. Daniel Stahl

Women’s discus:
1. Valarie Allman
2. Bin Feng
3. Jorinde Van Klinken

Men’s hammer throw:
1. Ethan Katzberg
2. Wojciech Nowicki
3. Mykhaylo Kokhan

Women’s hammer throw:
1. Deanna Price
2. Camryn Rodgers
3. Anita Wlodarczyk

Men’s javelin:
1. Jakub Vadlejch
2. Neeraj Chopra
3. Anderson Peters

Women’s javelin:
1. Mackenzie Little
2. Haruka Kitaguchi
3. Maggie Malone-Hardin

In case you haven’t guessed it my somewhat bias is that I’m American and want Americans to do well

Edit: I found out Anita Wlodarczyk is competing and I am not stupid enough to bet against her getting a medal

[ondrejsmejkal]

I think I have a tip for men's pole vault winner.

[dmcdgames]

Asafa and shelly were big unknowns and they won their first Olympics as rookies gikke kishane all the way. Every rave noah lyles runs he's putting out his all and can only run 9.8 he needs to execute a near flawless race to have a race at 9.7 let alone the gold.

Sha carri is the favorite in the 100 but I want shelly to win because it's her last olympics.

[barath]

Lyles winning 200m sure, but Tebogo over Bednerak - And can't see Shericka dropping the 200m unless SHE flunks it and Gabby wins.
400h - I hope Warholm wins, then Santos and Benjamin, but Warholm could lose it - Women, hoping hoping hoping FB beats SML, just to get SML out to compete again - In Europe too.
Triple - I actually hope Zango gets 18m, but I'll take anyone if all 3 medals are 18+ meters - Women, I hope Bekh-Romanchik but Thea is realistic.
Long - Mihambo all the way, Woody 2nd - Tentu for the men, he is just SO consistent.
110h - Holloway sure, and great pick with Simoncelli for 2nd! - 100h my is Kendra out so JCQ over Tobi this time, but my underdog heart would say Visser for Bronze!
Shot - Still think Crouser will come back and show em whose GOAT :)

[AsaniCoote]
