Olympics Recap: Noah Lyles Gold Medal and the Boxing Controversy, Plus IYHH and Voicemails | 8.5

Bomani Jones gives us his Olympics recap by first discussing Noah Lyles following his Gold medal performance in the 100-meter race over the weekend. Bomani explains that Noah's age is the reason he acts the way he does, especially with comments he's made in the past about the NBA Championships not being the "World Championships." (0:35) We take a look at how close the finish of that race was and the beef thats currently happening between Jamaicans and Americans. (13:30) Then Bomani shifts things towards the world of boxing, more specifically the controversy between Algerian boxer Imane Khelif and Italian boxer Angela Carini. He shares his thoughts on how the world and the internet have reacted to this issue. (20:55) And finally, another round of If You Haven't Heard stories and your voicemails questions are answered. (39:45)
