Flash Interview - Men 400m Hurdles Final, August 09 2005 I always had it in me, It was just a matter of time before I put it all together. I’m 5-7 but I have a soul of a 6-4 (1.93m) person, I have the heart of a giant. To PB at this point is telling me that the World record is in jeopardy. I hate to say it’s about time that a World record will be dropped in that event. I knew from the first time that I started doing it that I would be the one to knock it down. When the (World record) will come, it will come, I am not gong to force it but the World Championships would be a perfect time. In the bible, it says all men are created equal, (Sanchez) is a great athlete. I don’t take anything from him but on any given day the best lose. He trains hard and I train hard.

They said I had big ears and fly over the hurdles – like Batman. This is all about being loyal to the people who are loyal to you, The meet has been really good to me. It’s the first meet I raced against professionals. I want to try to help it come back again. I want to help it be one of the biggest meets ever.

I was more devastated when I didn’t make the finals (at world championships) last year, I was devastated (also at Trials), but I was just 19, 20 years old. So many people were depending on me making the team, to get a medal and be like a Miami hero. ‘Batman’ returns to hurdles at Relays, April 19 2008 External Links Category:1983 births Category:Living people Category:Track and field athletes
