After losing in the 200, Boling drops one of the fastest opening 400 meters legs of all time. Amazing.

I think he should stick with the 200m it's tough competition, but he is still a college athlete. That means he has time and he's already comprable to guys since he's run a sub 20s. He just needs to get consistent with it. If he can run a sub 19.9 this year he can win NCAA in the 200m and outdoor is way different from indoor
As a Canadian who is also amazed at Boling's Progress it seems apparent that the USA might have a FUTURE "Wayde van Niekirk that can perform well in the LONG JUMP too!" I'm curious what he can do in the 300, 500 and 600 meter distances too!
Lmfao clickbait trash. Matt is slow
Ah ha ha ha ha. Yet another Boling accolade. Way over the top for an athlete that has had no impact yet on the global stage. What next? An analysis of his 63m-64.5 m performance??🤷🏻♂️😂
I think there's a lot of pressure on him to be "The Great White Hope" in the sprints. I hope his coaches
soon realize that his best event is without a doubt, the 400m. He runs much more freely at this distance.
Lol bruh u gotta chill on boiling
you say how incredible it is but you don't play the whole come from behind anchor leg? for that reason your video sucks
Lol y'all LOVE Matthew Boling and Abby Steiner…. Nobody else really exists in track these days huh?
Boling will never win gold in the 100m, 200m, nor the 400m.He should be racing in the 800m. With some training he has the REAL potential to break the World record in that event! Go out in 50 and come home in 50.
Under 20 seconds with a running start🤦♂️ Can’t finish watching this video…
He should not life. It makes him run tight. Streching, stride, and horizontal bike with no resistance
I can’t wait til he is done with the college circuit. Then we will see his full potential.
He's a great sprinter, but his destiny is in the 4. He'll be dangerous in the 2, as I think he'll become a consistent high 19 performer, but to win consistently there he'd need to be mid 19s. Still, he's showing Kerley type capability. Not a bad class to be in.
Would love to see Matthew mix it up w/ Norman, Allison, Cherry, etc.
I think given the fact that he has a hard time relaxing when he runs the 100 and 200, the 400 would give him more time to relax and run faster over 400m distance.
After that 44.74 in high school, I really don’t know why he wouldn’t specialize in the 400.
In spite of all the adjectives, is Boling the fastest in the world?
…at Anything???
I know he's an incredible talent, but it is painful to watch his form in the last 50 of his races. The tension and straining and head movement is atrocious.
Would like to see you cover Texas A&M’s Auhmad Robinson. He ran a 45.6 in the indoor 400m last week. He was the dude that placed SFA 2nd in the NCAA Outdoors 4×4 behind NCA&T with a 43.45 split in 2021
The way this kid runs, he gets out fast its like he keeps picking up speed even on the home straight.
I completely agree with your statements here! Also, what I’m seeing in Boling, is, he’s achieving all these fast times running extremely tense. If he can learn to relax and clean out the sloppy parts of his mechanics, there is no telling how fast his times will be. Many don’t realize these 400M specialists are often very fast in the 100M and 200M, but, not champions. As Matt begins to approach the pros, he’s gonna need to learn the way of the Professional Athletes, which is, to focus on the event(s) at which they have a chance of winning! If he focuses more on the 400M now, it can get him up there, as well as build more strength for the 100/200M later in his career.
Great 400 meters for Matthew!💥
Letsile Tobogo 300m – jogs 31.54 in South Africa. https://youtu.be/8ghtnQ-VxFo
Tired of hearing about how great this kid is for the last 2years. Throw him on the track with the big boys or STFU
All this hype about Matthew for what tell ME he dont have Oly or World medal he better try 400m he not letme repeat he not coming to medal inthe 200m or 100m at Oly or World games Ok like it or NOT
He IS Human! Expectations r too unrealistic
I’m a huge fan of Matthew Boling but I’m so sick of watching these videos you post titled that he just did something great and there’s some sort of news when in fact all of the content is from years ago and he’s seemingly pretty much out of the spotlight these days. Why is this video entitled Matthew Boling just did some thing amazing when there’s not anything in it saying anything about what he just did ?
We're so tired of the Boling ball news, that's not news.
I've been saying this the past two years
Homie is getting slower and his forms is shit by the end
He is not fast enough in 200 let alone in the 100 he struggles to the finish lines he need to concentrate on the 400 but like I said with 60 meters to go on every race I’ve seen he looses his strides and his arm movements go sideways as his face and breathing are out of wack so don’t tell me he just did something ridiculous because he is to much struggling in the end boy
Full of it T R P
White king! W
He needs to stop running the 400 because that's why his 200 times are down. It's too stressful and hard to recover from. Very few people have done it well and most of them are probably enhanced
You would think in a 8:18 video, we might see 1 complete race.
Boling is awesome for sure. Yet his transition to outdoor is always sorry. Still blazing but no real umph.
Oh and the splits you claim are at th3 most approximations like you said. But even though I'm a Texan and love my world class texas athelets. Boling is still upsetting to me.
He's a jack of all these events but no master of any of them. Hopefully he still had the same coach and they'll have loads more improvement this outdoor season
How many seasons are these same claims going to be made for this guy? From everything I've seen in his races, he obviously has amazing natural speed, but that is not going to help him if he never learns to control his form. Isn't he on his second coach now? And even with another very good coach, he still has the same problems I've seen over the past three seasons. He starts well, gets going up to speed, but when he needs to maintain that or catch another runner, his form falls apart and he either goes out of his lane, twists and ankle or just gets passed up by better runners.
White boy can Run!
why he get muscles in arms it add weight
Boling should start doing the 400 meter, not giving up on 200 but definitely needs to do this.
overrated, real guys are his age made the Olympic final
This year really has to show where boiling is heading professionally, he must be heading into the decathlon. With his top end speed, he could be world and Olympic champion in his 20s easily
Very gifted young man.. but he has a long way to go to be world/Olympic and other top flight events podium dweller no matter what races he chooses..the USA hasn't seen white sprinters like him and that Abby girl in forever.. but both have much to prove still
22 years old and he’s already slowing down.
He's wasting his career. He needs to hit the decathlon. He has a shot to be an all time great there.
He needs to play football.
Is the same chap that Americans were saying he is going to smoke Tebogo if comes to NCAA?😂😂😂come on now
