Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt announced Wednesday plans to retire from competition following the 2016 Olympic games in Rio de Janeiro.
"I think it will be a good time to retire," Bolt told the Associated Press, adding, "on top and just been dominating for so long."
Bolt, 27, said he wants to again win gold in Rio, as well as set the world record in the 200 meters. He has won six gold medals in all, three each at the last two Olympiad.
"If I want to be among the greats of [Muhammad] Ali and Pele and all these guys I have to continue dominating until I retire," Bolt told the AP.
