Watch: 'I'm going to make fun of him!' - Usain Bolt looking forward to picking on Yohan Blake after 100m blow-out

Sprint legend Usain Bolt says he's looking forward to taking the mickey out of fellow Jamaican Yohan Blake after he was relegated to Commonwealth Games 100m bronze earlier this week.

Before the race Bolt, who himself never won an individual 100m Commonwealth Games medal of any colour, said Blake shouldn't bother returning home if he didn't triumph.

Blake is the second fastest man on the planet behind Usain Bolt.

In a shock, he placed third, behind South Africans Akani Simbine and Henricho Bruintjies after failing to recover from a poor start.

Speaking to a packed media conference on the Gold Coast today, Bolt said he hadn't caught up with Blake yet, but was looking forward to doing so.

"It was actually a joke, I didn't know he'd tell people!" Bolt insisted.

"I went to talk to him at the track before he left for Australia and we were just laughing about and having fun and I said that.

"I haven't called him, I haven't texted him, I'm waiting to go to the village to see him to have a conversation, because I'm definitely going to make fun of him.

"It's going to be a good conversation."
