“I Schooled You On This Last Olympics!”: Michael Johnson Shoots Down Piers Morgan Over Olympic Medals Remark


Michael Johnson has responded to Pier Morgan's latest attempt to play down the glory of winning a bronze or silver medal at the Olympics.

Very few who challenged Michael Johnson on the race track beat him, and Piers Morgan has found this to be a similar story on social media. The pair have traded barbs in the past, and their semi-serious feud reignited this week when Morgan responded to Johnson about the quality of silver and bronze medals at the Olympics. At the Tokyo 2020 Games, which were delayed a year due to Covid-19, Johnson and Morgan had clashed after the ex-athlete had similarly said that silver and bronze medals were “wins” for anyone who was a projected finalist.
