Blake is as close to Bolt in the 100m as Tyson Gay is.... which means he is not close
In the 200m he may be closer although he has yet to replicate the 19.26...even so he is still a substantial .07 seconds away
Conclusion: Blake is competitive to Bolt but Bolt still has a substantial advantage when fit...especially in championships ....his record when titles are on the line is phenomenal. Nothing in the history of the sport exists to compare with Bolt in major championships.
In this game of micro seconds Blake is not yet close but he has time on his side and may be the dominant sprinter at some future point
Patience is indicated
