When asked what he was currently playing, Bolt claimed: Right now I like Pro Evolution football game and Call of Duty.”

He was then asked if he was as good at games as he is at sprinting. Of course, when I play on my own,” he boasted. But when I play online I can have trouble.”

Earlier this week Bolt smashed the World 100m Record, completing in a mind-numbing 9.58 seconds.
