YOUTUBER ISHOWSPEED CHALLENGED BY OLYMPIC RUNNER AFTER SAYING HE'S NEVER LOST A RACE
The former Valorant streamer and online personality Darren "IShowSpeed" Watkins Jr. has been challenged by Olympic medalist Ewa Swoboda.
People are eagerly waiting to see if Watkins Jr. will accept Swoboda's offer to race the next time he's in Poland.
Swoboda suggested that IShowSpeed could prove his unbeatable claim by joining an RMF FM radio contest in her home country later this month.

A fan of Watkins Jr. recently told him on a YouTube livestream that Swoboda is one of the fastest women alive.
The content creator should offer to compete against the 60-meter gold medal winner.
"I'm being deadass," the streamer responded via Dexerto. "There was no point in my life where I ever lost a race—that's why people call me Speed."

The runner responded in a separate video, noting that her parents had mentioned Watkins Jr.'s dismissiveness when calling them to celebrate her recent performances.
"Well, if he comes to Poland and he competes in the RMF FM radio contest, maybe I'll run with him," she said.
However, she noted it seemed unlikely he would actually do so.
IShowSpeed, who was banned from Valorant in the past for toxic behavior, has more recently spent his time barking at TikTok wizards during the 2024 Euros.
He might be too busy jumping over cars to pick up the gauntlet Swoboda has thrown down.
He recently hopped back-to-back speeding Lamborghinis in a stunt that got him temporarily banned from YouTube.
He notified fans recently on Twitter that his channel would be locked down with the violation appearing to last a couple of weeks.
If Watkins Jr. ever does get around to racing Swoboda, not everyone thinks it'll go well for him.
One commenter wrote, "She gonna smoke Speed. Her time for the 60 meter was 6.98 seconds, just fractions over Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill's time at the Masters Indoor Championship last year."
