Watch Usain Bolt Roast James Corden Before Dropping The Mic

Watch Usain Bolt Roast James Corden Before Dropping The Mic

As well as the 100 metres, he's also good at running his mouth.

James Corden, not known for being in peak physical condition, wouldn't stand a chance in a race against Usain Bolt - the world's fastest man and nine-time Olympic gold medal winner.

But being a comedian, of sorts, and a presenter, he should have absolutely roasted him in a war of words. But, well, see for yourself...

Drop the Mic, a regular section of The Late, Late Show with James Corden, which is on CBS on weeknights, showed the two men going to head-to-head. It seemed to start off alright for James when he said: "After all those races you won in Brazil, you're about to lose to a man standing still. Now, athletes aren't great at maths, so I hope this helps, you have 14 gold medals less than Michael Phelps." Burn.

It wasn't long before Usain ended him by saying: "You never should have signed; you probably should have fled. I run my race in ten seconds, you last that long in bed."

Before following it up with: "I have nine gold medals last time I checked, that's one for every time you've had sex..." leaving nothing else to do but drop the mic.
