STOCKHOLM — It turns out Usain Bolt can be beaten.
From Beijing to Berlin, it seemed that Bolt and his long, turbocharged strides were more than a match for anyone over 100 meters. But Tyson Gay upset the defending world and Olympic champion Friday in a race between the two fastest runners in history.
Gay beat the Jamaican at the DN Galan meet in 9.84 seconds at the same stadium where Bolt last lost a race two years ago.
The American seemed in complete control against the world record-holder. The pair raced side by side in lanes four and five. Gay, looking comfortable, drew away while Bolt strained to keep up and finished second in 9.97.
"I'm really happy with the win, even though Usain Bolt isn't in the best shape," Gay said. "It was very important to beat someone like that for the fans and the sport."
Bolt has run faster this year, finishing in 9.82 a month ago in Lausanne, Switzerland.
A sellout crowd in the 1912 Olympic Stadium turned silent before the showdown. And the tension heightened even further after two false starts.
"I think it showed that I wasn't in the best of shape," Bolt said. "I'm not unbeatable. I can be beaten and it showed today."more on http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iUq69mb3HKAk_Oa1VQD1pyn2f9AAD9HE7HN00

Silva pronounced which he suffered the rib damage precision with Japanese judo bullion medalist Satoshi Ishii before to the quarrel as well as which the alloy told him not to take the quarrel with Sonnen.
UFC boss Dana White was neutral about where the UFC middleweight multiplication goes from here. Vitor Belfort could embrace the subsequent pretension shot opposite Silva or the UFC could potentially rematch Silva as well as Sonnen.
“Fighting Anderson Silva’s the lot similar to eating Chinese food,” Sonnen remarked. “Twenty mins after I’m finished I’m starting to wish to do it again.”
