Usain Bolt’s recent comment about being a living legend has raised eyebrows and is not making him friends. Bruce Jenner told TMZ that Bolt could not put himself in the same category as decathletes and did because he was just a sprinter.

“He can’t pole vault, he can’t throw anything. That’s an athlete,” Jenner told TMZ. He went on to say, “[Bolt] couldn’t do it, he’d be terrible.”
