Usain Bolt has a simple advice to American sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson and that is for her to stop trash-talking and focus on training.
Eight-time Olympic gold medalist Bolt said in the interview with the Post that Richardson should keep quiet after she was handed a one-month ban for testing positive for cannabis, which cost her a spot on the U.S. Olympic team.
Bolt explained the trash talk just makes her Jamaican competitors more determined to beat her.
He told The Post, "I would tell Sha'Carri to train harder and to be focused and not say too much … If you talk that big talk you have to back it up.
"So just train hard and focus on that and try to come back do it and then talk about it."
In her return to the track last month after the ban, Richardson, 21, finished last in the 100-meter dash, which was won by Jamaica’s Elaine Thompson-Herah, who also took the 100-meter Olympic gold in Tokyo.
