There was a lot of chatter about how Akeem was going to/woulda beat Fred Kerley were he in Kerley’s last race . That bs didn’t age well I see . Last season Noah Lyles said he wasn’t racing a time ( 19.49 ) when he was to face Erriyon Knighton . He said he was racing Erriyon. That’s kinda the logic implied regarding a Kerley vs Akeem Blake match up

Almost looks like Ackeem felt he had the race and just let it go, but looking at his facial expression I am not sure how correct I am.
Ackeem lost his focus and had a slight form break at the end. He also was surprisingly not his usual relaxed self… He was tight a the end
Akeem thought he had the race he must continue to run until the end
