For the record, Mondo is a whole 0.10 seconds faster in the 100m than Leonard Fournette. Mondo ran 10.57 on a whim at regionals in high school.


Cool. Fournette ran a 10.6 in HS with about 60 pounds on Mondo. I don't know Mondo's strength, but I doubt it would be anywhere NEAR Fournette's pound for pound. Agility? Fournette all day. Mondo possibly has a higher vert than Fournette, but again, Fournette has 60 pounds on the guy.

It's really not even close. Let Fournette grab a pole from ages 7 to 19 with a super support system and nothing but that in mind and there is no doubt in my mind he is also breaking world records.

This is absurd. "If Fournette had focused on pole vault he'd be a world record holder" is an incredibly misinformed opinion.

Not even close. Fournette would be a horrible pole vaulter. That 60 pounds you keep mentioning would ground him like a tank. Just because a heavy fast athlete is heavy and fast doesn't make him superior. No such thing as 235lbs pole vaulters. Mondo would smash LF in a long jump competition. 235lb guys aren't long jumping at the Olympics. LF is a great football player. That doesn't make him a better athlete. Mondo is the better athlete. Who do you think would win in a mile run right now ? I'm going with Mondo. You don't see 235lb track guys who run the mile.

edit* Mondo

I won’t insult your intelligence by pretending you actually believe this. If you are not trolling, your ignorance has disqualified you from this discussion.

Holy shite. This might legit be the dumbest thing I have ever read on this board.

Just like that, Fournette would be breaking WORLD records!
