IShowSpeed tried to race Sha’Carri Richardson—but she turned him down.
On a livestream posted on Saturday (around the 2-hour and 11-minute mark of the video above), Speed linked up with the Olympic medal-winning athlete after a flag football game and inquired about racing her.
The streamer's excitement for the impromptu competition was quickly shut down, as Richardson turned him down and revealed her reasoning.
“I don’t race for free,” she said, to Speed's disappointment.
“Everybody just be ducking,” he said to the camera.
This comment led Richardson to outline the steps he needs to take to race her for free. “Tell him to come work out first,” she said. “Do an Olympian track workout and then we can do a race.”
IShowSpeed, unfazed by the challenge, agreed to her terms.
“Race coming soon,” he said. “I’m going to come to Texas.”
A look Speed's history of competitions proves that he’s serious. The streamer previously challenged Olympic medal-winning athlete Noah Lyles to a race with $100,000 on the line.
Though Lyles won, Speed claimed that it was a tie.
Before Speed races anyone else, though, he should make sure that the injuries he sustained at the WWE Royal Rumble match have healed. Last week, the streamer joined the popular event after wrestler Carmelo Hayes attacked Akira Tozawa at the entrance to the ring.
Speed helped toss 330-pound wrestler Otis out of the ring and then performed Cristiano Ronaldo’s “sui” celebration. Moments later, though, the streamer was speared by Bron Breakker and sent to the floor in agony.
Minutes after recovering, Speed met up with Logan Paul and gave him a glimpse of a gruesome gash that he got during the attack. The streamer ended up with a slight limp but has seemingly recovered.
