It was wrong to say "he doesn't win a lot of non-paced races." He wins a lot of all races. He is the best on earth at winning middle distance races. But he is definitely beatable by a few guys like Kerr on the right day. Doesn't help that he is trying to double at these same events.
I should add, Kerr and Wightman are two of my favourites as well. That is the problem for me with this sport. I love all of the runners so I feel both happy and sad after each major final.
Zero of the xc races were paced.
@@pete5691 and zero of the x-c races are that important.
@@david2804me irrelevant
It's just mind games, anything he says that might put doubt into Ingebritsen's head is worth it from Kerr's POV. Ingebritsen lost two work champs in a row in the sprint finish so that's got to affect him.
As a Norwegian, I have no issues with some smack-talk in world athletics. Media exposure is important for professional sports and a bit of grit and rivalry is excellent (look at Carlsen and Nakamura saving chess more than a decade ago by their rivalry bringing chess into the interwebs and being spicy).
Let Kerr talk and then let them run for us to watch. He is the WC after all.
As a chess player I find your comparison hilarious. I'm an expert level chess player and have been playing for years. Although there may be some truth in what you're saying chess wasn't "saved" by anyone. The game as we know it is over 500 years old. I would argue the pandemic had a lot more to do with the popularity of chess then any rivalries between players. Hikaru, with all his faults, singlehandedly had more impact on the game's popularity than any rivalry in the sport. Neimann's awkward legacy also had a huge impact the game's popularity today. But I get your point, drama sells.
Over-stated by @glacieractivity but still somewhat true. Nakamura's spats did increase the popularity of Chess. Although that's mostly due to Nakamura's personality and his pre-existing fan base. For example nobody really cared about Giri and Carlsen's rivalry or Kramnik and Carlsen because neither had big enough cult of personality already.
@@MrSupernova111What’s your elo?
Okay but does winning one race head to head vs a guy that's 2x 5k WC & 3rd fastest ever in the mile really give him that much ethos? I'm all for smack and competition, but it's borderline classless how much he attacks
@@MrSupernova111We are all impressed
Jakob is chasing history, Josh is chasing Jakob
Not sure that's a good way to put it, though, when just the opposite happened in the World Championship.
@@pnutbutrncrackers I just meant that Jakob is chasing and setting world records every season. Josh is not in the same form to do that, although he has proven to be as good as anyone on race day
@@LukaTheDon77 Sure, I knew what you meant.
I think you have to consider the fact that this is a premeditated, thoughtful strategy by Josh, to say these things publicly. He obviously thinks he gain a mental advantage and undermine Jakob's confidence. Maybe spur Jakob to overtrain? @@pnutbutrncrackers
Least regarded Luka Donkey fan
I love this from Kerr. Amazing for the sport. Rivalry is what turns casuals into fans.
I just hope it doesn't turn into a habit for Kerr, or Jakob just might wash Josh's greatness down the drain with perpetual thumpings from here on.
Absolutely 💯 This single video has turned me from being loosely interested in the sport to grabbing all the popcorn I can get my hands on
@@BulletBilbo Seriously, TRP did a good job summarizing. I might end up increasingly anticipating the OLY 1500 showdown more than I've ever spent 8+ months anticipating any showdown in 25 yrs as a fan.
Just my thoughts, and please share yours if you'd like- I hope to see Jakob smack the hell out of everyone in a new WR, 3:24. I know the time isn't real likely if he doubles but this boy SHATTERED one of history's greatest WR's, 2 miles in 7:54, averaging 58.9 over 8 laps. A 3:27.1 to his name, has taken down 2 El Guerouj records and won the OLY gold at 20... Business as usual and being fully healthy, he's capable of sub 3:26 already. Doing it in the Olympics, it would likely be THE momen of the entire games.
Totally agree.
How awful it would be if Kerr got on there for 49 mins talking how he would love to put the Gold around Ingerbricksens neck personally.
Such a weak era we live in.
@@HandsomeJelly
It would break your widdle ladylike heart eh ?
If "major weakness" is getting top 2 in every race, at every distance since 2019....then how big are Kerr's weaknesses?
I get his point that Jakob is vulnerable in championships. Front running makes him vulnerable. But he's still less vulnerable than everyone else. Because who else is guaranteed a top 2 finish every time they race?
Btw. It's 8-1. Worlds this year was Kerr's only victory over Jakob. The other is a semi-final if you pause at 3:29 in the video.
100% this. If I was 1-8 against anyone, I'd keep my mouth shut
tbf kerrs win is the most recent and this is obvs cause of whatever weaknesses he saw in jakob so dispite being top 2 that doesnt mean hes completely perfect
@@aarongifford69 Of course he's not perfect. But for Kerr to say he has "major weaknesses" is just not true. He has one minor weakness. And everyone knows about it. That he isn't the best sprinter in the field.
But despite this weakness and everyone trying to exploit it, he still manages to win the majority of his races. And if he loses, a maximum of one person gets past him.
I'm sure every athlete on the planet would happily trade in their weaknesses to have this minor weakness. Including Kerr.
Well if JI got paced to his big wins…what happened to JK? Couldn’t you argue JI paced him to his victory?
He isn’t saying he’s better. He’s saying that JI’s racing strategy isn’t working for him
@@gabrielbest86I don't think anyone including Kerr thinks Kerr is better. Kerr said the OLY win was basically paced by Cheryot. That makes the point in the original comment a hell of a point.
Yes but Jakob needs to do that. He doesn't have any choice. He would get blown away on the last lap in a 3:34 race.
@@HandsomeJelly But Cheryot could have sat on Jakob for 800-900m if he wanted to, but he chose to pass him up and run faster. He basically ran the race he wanted, and got beat.
@@trancemaster5009 Okay? I have no opinion on it. Just agreeing that if Jakob was paced by Cheryot, the Kerr was paced to his win by Jakob just the same.
This reminds me of people who attack LeBron James for losing 6 NBA finals, yet not mentioning him being in 10 (8 in a row) and winning 4. I have admired Jakob for his ability to drill down and focus on incessant training and believing he could be amongst the greatest. I think he knows his glacial character and hubris isn't for everyone (and he's starting to turn a new leaf), but he works hard. Josh has really spent time looking over Jakob race film!
People hate on lebrons final record because he himself threw a whole parade Bragging about how he will win 8 rings with Miami and then losing 6 times in humiliating fashion scoring only 7 points In 2011 loosing by the biggest margin in final’s history of in 2014 and still having the audacity to call himself the goat .😂 people just don’t like cocky mofos who make promises they can’t fulfill
@@abone2pick 🤦🏾♂
@@abone2pick and then watch another dynasty come in and dominate. GOAT's don't come second to another dynasty, they are the dynasty.
@@abone2pick you don’t know ball
Lebron if only trashed for his finals record sucking in the context of MJ-Lebron debate, basically. Jakob is certainly comparable to Lebron in a numbers way but in a decade could be the MJ in an all-around all-timer way. Poor podcast performance for Josh, unless his only goal was trying to build things up for Paris. Does he know Jakob is kinda damn good with a chip on his shoulder though?? Haha
📢 Mark your calendars: Oslo Diamond League, 🇳🇴: 30th of May 2024. Jakob is for sure running. Josh needs to be there.
I think Josh won't turn up...
Wouldn’t marking our calendars for the 1500m Olympic final be more fitting than Jakob’s home DL race?
@@ChairmanAntelope Josh never said anything about home field. Simply saying this is one date that could be of interest . Back up the tough talk on his home turf.
@@henrihelvetica5835 highly doubt anyone is putting much prestige on that race. All eyes are on the olympics and the athletes will put prio on it
@@StarComet7 all eyes will be on the OLY Games no matter what. FANS will watch this one if they both race as a preview of what could be to come and possibly commentary. Again, that's IF they meet. But Jakob will be for sure as the hometown hero. Barring that, the EU champs on Italy in June. I can't wait.
I think Jakob is going to be the one to say alr just wait and see, then just train and race his heart out.
Dang now Kerr is getting back to his 2021 mindset. I liked his humble quiet stance last year. He needs to try out for an airheads commercial because he’ll definitely get the job, he’s a natural
Those 5000’s were stacked with talent both years. It isn’t Jakobs fault the ENTIRE FIELD played into his strength both times. Maybe enter the 5000 and show us how it’s done.
Damn Kerr is delusional 😂😂
Kerr's been called that his entire life. And he's a World Champion.
He's not going to stop being this in your face outspoken guy now.
@@luckyspurs There is a lot of examples of lucky world champions. Kerr is one of them.
I have a feeling Kerr understands he’s in the entertainment business, not the running business. And he’s creating a story for people to get engaged in to increase interest in him as a runner and the upcoming Olympics. He’s getting more attention, and poking people’s emotions which make them more engaged
Kerr wants that Norway smoke. All of it.
Yeah he’s had nothing but jakobs smoke for all these years
WTF is Kerr thinking he’s correct in trash talking Jakob? Yes, Jakob must have been disappointed with losing both 1500m titles, but: 1) He did get silvers in both, which isn’t easy to do, and 2) Jakob did follow both with golds in the 5K. It isn’t easy to double at a global championship. Jakob is great and Kerr is blowing arrogant stream here.
It’s called a winner’s attitude. What would you prefer, that he just roll over and congratulate Jakob on his future wins?
@@hutchmusician That's actually a terrible take lol.
@@hihungryimcam Ah well I’m certainly convinced by your well-argued point. The ‘actually’ started my head turning but it was the lol that really did it. Well done sir.
What's the harm in trash-talking Jakob if your Josh.
He's already World Champion. Worst thing that happens is the guy everyone expected to beat him, beats him. Why not shake things up a bit and see if he can get to him.
I think is argument is more a mental game. But Yes is true every athletes do have weaknesses.
Kerr has a habit of running his mouth calling usa middle distance soft, and then proceeds to routinely get beat by nuguse
compared to the UK, USA md is soft
@@harryfisher4006 Wightman and Kerr are aging out of md, US md will definitely overtake UK md soon, if they haven't already. I would argue Nuguse is better than Wightman or Kerr already, but we'll see as he gets more races under his belt.
He was spot on about US middle distance.
Jakob is not overconfident, like it may seem to many people but he has the perfect mentality that an athlete should have. He don't make silly excuses when he face defeats. Josh kerr is just envious of jakob's achievements. Josh kerr is the one who is overconfident here because he became the world champ in 1500m. I have been following jakob from a long time and he never trash talks about his opponents. He accepts defeat and comes back stronger every time. He is better athlete than kerr at every single distance. Btw it should have been really embarrassing for josh kerr being an 18yr old to get deafeated by 15yr old jakob. Josh kerr is just jeolous of jakob's success. I can't wait for jakob to crush his ego
Kerr is the little mans champion. Jacob knows that it is the Olympics that really matters.
Jakob effectively 'trash talks' his opponents every time he gets beaten in big races. In both of the World finals he was beaten (Wightman and Kerr) but he refused to show the winners due respect for being better on the day but made excuses both times saying he he got his tactics wrong the first time and was ill the second time.
Jakob immediately blamed sickness after the world championships what do you mean he doesn’t come up with excuses 😂
Your input sounds very puerile. Why not learn more about the sport and its protagonists and attempt to make constructive and/or interesting observations.
I thought the exact same thing….Jakob never lost to a 15 yr old
I love how Josh Kerr becomes an expert.....he knows....
I hate when some knows BETTER about everybody else then about himself.
Josh Kerr-won against Ingebrigsten when...Kerr was paced by him the entire race!
As a matter of fact, I haven’t seen many races where Kerr wasn't paced to victory either :P
Can’t wait. I’ll be in the stands watching in Paris. A rivalry like this is going to push each athlete to new heights!
Great to see middle distance runners trash talking and not just the sprinters.
As Michael Jordan would always say: "That's all I needed."
Even if Jakob would retire right now, he would do so as double world champion, olympic champion, double silver medalist and world record holder among several distances. That is more than most elite athletes will ever achieve and he is only 23 😭😭
And you forgot to mention, that Jakob is 20 times WR holder since age 14, including an OR!
It's not a bad take from kerr to say that cheriyot paced yakob in the olympic final and that he struggled in the next 2 finals because he set the pace. I just believe trp is biased towards ingebritsen in this video. The only bad takes kerr makes are about the 5000m
2-12 record in Jakob’s favor. That’s all you need to see
@@thedailystride5407 Yes but Kerr never said he was better than Jakob
@thedailystride5407 exactly kerr wasnt saying he was better he wss saying jakob's strategy for racing in the 1500m isnt working as he only won in 2021 because cheriyot paced him to a pace they could only handle whereas without a pacer he struggles. And if your going to say why has he won the 5000m world title the last 2 championships its because the 5k runners dont have as good a speed and kick as him because he's a 1500 runner and you can even see that in the last title he was pushed hard and almost lost to mo katir who is a, you guessed it, 1500m runner. So thats why hes been winning 5000m as they go out a pace he can handle and the 1500 runners kick and take the medals
Trp isn't being biased. The results are. This video could have put only the results of their head to head races up and said everything needed to say.
@@jsherrier1196 in order to win a race like that, you have to be tactical. Everyone wants to win, so if you lead the majority of the race, there will be at least one runner who's drafted off you the entire time, who can then beat you in the finish because you've done all the hard work up until the last lap. These guys are world class and if they want to win an olympic gold, they're capable of keeping with the leaders no matter how fast they run, and in a 1500 nobody will let you take a healthy lead becase the race is so short. So by racing from the front, Jakob risks being beaten if he doesn't throw down a 3.27/3.28. The time he ran at the world championships was very beatable, hence why Kerr beat him in the finish, had Jakob let someone else lead, the chances are he'd have had it in the bag on the last straight. Nobody us arguing that Kerr is bette than Jakob, but running world records and racing for world titles are two totally different ball games
Ignoring what he said about the 5000, when you run in the world championships and you race from the front, unless you have a perfect race, someone will draft off you and pip you to the finish - generally speaking, if you want to win a race like that, you don't go flat out otherwise you risk losing it in a finish - I wouldnt be surprised if Jakob is overconfident, and by going out too fast thinking nobody will hold him, he absolutely risks being beaten if he doesn't run near world record pace, because all these guys are physically capable of running sub 3.29 if pushed
(I notice how we casually brush Jakobs overconfidence under the rug but when Kerr comes over as 'too confident' we're now slandering him and putting words in his mouth)
Good analysis. Jakob is very confident but he doesn't usually trash other athletes, points a little towards Kerr's own inferiority complex, in the end we all know Jakob was running with a cold that day of the 1500m final in Budapest, kerr doesn't mention this too often.
But if Josh has only won twice versus Jacob how does he think that makes sense? 🤦🏾♂️
The difference is Jacob comments on his own abilities, Kerr is trying to trash talk about Jacob but , isn't even making a good trash talk ... lol
@Eddybo22 because Jakob is a better runner, but despite that he doesn't have a world title to his name (in the 1500) - notice how in the 5000, he ran over 13 minutes both times, and won it in the finish? His tactics were better in those races hence why he won
@333joemc yeah, having seen him win the 5000 there's no question he was capable of winning the 1500 too, although if he wasn't 100% (which I'm not disputing) he probably shouldn't have lead the whole race like that
Josh ruffling a few feathers..... You absolutely LOVE to see it!
Kerr creating some rivalry w Jakob is good for the sport. We need more rivalries to raise the profile of track and field. I don’t watch track to see fast times, I watch to see BATTLES!
It's good for Kerr too. Also, this isn't out of character.
Having beef between athletes is what bring views to the sport, we need more of it, like Kerly Jacobs, Bolt and Gatlin in 2015
If you want to be elite you need elite confidence in yourself. He's trippin but if these are the mental hoops he's gotta go through to convince himself he can beat Ingebritsen again I'm all for it
Okay, kinda a decent point... Good thought, really.👏
You’re right, although I think he’s just doing it to troll Jakob.
Fully agree.
@@jujutrini8412 it's not called 'troll', it's called 'mind games'.
@@david2804me ok
both Jakob and Josh have a big ego lol
They are incredibly similar personality wise.
I loved Josh winning because I'm British. Imagine Norweigans love Jakob winning too.
Sounds pretty overconfident, but I think his point is that Jacob has great aerobic strength, but not so high anaerobic, high end speed, so he needs a fast average pace to win the mile. If there’s a pacer, then he’s handed that on a plate, but if he has to do extra work up front, then it’s going to be difficult for him to win the big races.
Interesting take on this, TRP. I think that the controversy adds a lot of interest in the upcoming Olympic race. Three major players and don't sleep on Nuguse if he can get his tactics right!
Hey TRP, can we get a video pls on the 18yr old South Carolina Freshman JaMeesia Ford who just ran 35.83 (2nd all-time NCAA) in her 300m season opener just 0.04s from breaking Abby Steiner's 35.80 NCAA Record?! Fellow freshman teammate Zaya Akins ran 36.77 for 11th on that list.
Genius marketing move. People want to see rivalries. It Will attract a lot of eyes
🔥🔥🔥
3:35 it goes from 12-2 to 7-2 but one of the wins you're taking away is from Kerr so he cannot stay at 2
It's 8-1 without prelims lol
That is called envy. Period.
7 to 2. Yeah sit down son.
This was like a month ago and they’re talking about it now 😂. I think josh is trying to get in his head
If I'm honest, what Kerr is doing is great. Building hype in the best possible way! And to call him not self aware is ridiculous, having been around him during 2023 he knows exactly what he's doing. Plus it's lowkey warranted. Jakob gave Kerr absolutely no credit after his win at the champs and put it all down to an illness. I think Kerr addressed this well in the pod comparing an illness to an injury, staying illness free is all part of the game, if you can't do that then that's on you, don't use it as an excuse just be better.
We need more intensity and rivalries in track and less buddy buddy stuff so this is GREAT!!
I can't wait to hear Kerr's excuse when Yared Neguse cruises past him in the Olympics 😂
1) Most of Ingebrigtsens non-championship races are paced for him to challenge world records.
An interviewer asked him if he would consider some non-paced races to prepare for championships. He shot them down saying it was a stupid question, even though it's obviously a sensible idea.
2) Ingebrigtsen is not gracious in defeat. Rather than saying he needs to improve, he often makes excuses.
Jakobs father said himself that Jakobs attitude will be his downfall. He said as a child and teenager he would always listen to his father and brothers experience and what to avoid, but the last few years, he never listens and is very rude to them. You can see he has gone out of control. Now compare him to Hicham El Guerrouj, not a single person said a bad thing about him, they always stated he was very humble even though he was far better than everyone else, his humilty was wonderful and they respected him more for that than his amazing performances.
What downfall are u talking about. Jakob never trash talked about his rival like kerr did. He even facetimed with his rival timothy cheruiyot, he's mentality is actually the best that an athlete can have.
Never listens to who? He's self-coached. And if the past two seasons are anything to go by, he's doing just fine.
We don’t care buddy, he’s fast
He's a conqueror, not a warm fuzzy.
@@pratyakshkumar8940True💯👍 The Jacob has the mentality of a Olympic Champion.
A blend of passion🔥 and focus (like a laser beam).
Guy is confident in his abilities🔆.
We need more of this in track and field,love it !
As a brit, can I suggest that Josh is called Wan from hereon in?
Jakob is a talented long distance runner but he love 1500 m more and would like to run that distance untill he is to slow.
Many people think he just is a 1500 m runner in the WC for 5000, but 3000 m or 5000 m is may be his best distances, over time 10.000 m.
Two men with high knowledge in athletics, one of them an Olympic Champion the other an respected sports commentator which has been leading a trainings podcast, and their knowledge in running is at the top level where they have followed Jakob from his young running life. They told most people think he is a 1500 m runner using his speed at 5000, but they was sure Jakob was capable of aprox 12.30 at 5.000, but Jakob has as always never mentioned anything like that, but I heard he agreed that his talent is 5000 and his training is long distance.
I think Jakob and his training is a big reason of the increasing quality at 1500 m the last seasons. In 2022 he failed in his tactic and was pissed at himself because he was distracted by an other runner and run like an idiot before the last lap, and as he said then it's too late.
But I think its funny when Kerr is telling us that Jakob cannot run without rabits, but everybody but Jakob was running with pacer in WC, also Kerr, and in all the other races Jakob is the last pacer for everyone in the field and he is towing the hole fields to world class P.B.
I think this accusations is bloody anfair because Jakob is a introvert type that don t like interviews, but when everybody ask him he has to give answers, because they don't stop before he have answered. All his words is analyzed, criticized, and often taken out og context.
The first thing he said in an interview after he finished second in the last WC was that he was not best today and Kerr was better than me, but when some people knew he was in the best chape of the year some days before and because of rumers of his fever and inflammation the evening before of course he was asked about this again and again when he tried to downplay it. But because he was so big favorite, and the time at this fast track just was in the middle of 3.29 some journalists at least got him to admire that he was sorry to be sick this day, and of course he had not been a sportsman at this level if he had not been sorry for this, but he didn't want to take thiese interviews, and because he tried to play his sickness down someone that not have the hole story can say he has excuses, but when some people knew he was ill what should he at last do? This story of the nr 2 or the next one is also taken some out of context, if he of one person is asked what number he looked at Kerr in the competition before the race he was nr, 2. No one could say that Kerr was better than nr2 in the overall season. Jakob have to have a clear head in the competitions, but also when he is going from interview to interview he has to remember don't saying anything which could be taken out of context to make other stories. We should try to remember his is not an easy task.
Yes he's the underdog, but being just 1s behind in most major races, and one of jakob's makor rivals, his jestful pokes are well warrented. It's great for the sport, keeps fans engaged and happens in pretty much every other elite competitive sporting environments.
pop Josh was paced by Jakob and then talks smack about him.
I don t believe this man is realising what Hé is speaking about .
Josh Kerr , gold medal for lack of respect and self control
you didn't quite understand what Josh Kerr said, he didn't say he was better than Jakob Ingebrigtsen, he said that Jakob Ingebrigtsen didn't win that many non paced races, which is true for the 1500m, he did not have a medal at the world championships in 2019, he did not win in 2022 or 2023 even though he was the big favorite... I really like both and objectively Josh Kerr is right but that does not mean that he considers himself better than Jakob Ingebrigtsen.
do you believe the pacing would have been an issue if Josh had won said races??
@@henrihelvetica5835 what josh kerr is saying about pacing is not a problem it's just facts. He never said that it was a problem that jakob didn't win that much of races without pacing it's just facts.
@@jsherrier1196 you're right about the fact that of course Jakob Ingebrigtsen is working on this weakness, and yes on this point josh kerr is wrong
@@Scarfesse. well, I'm glad he's going in some depth in watching Jakob film. Looking fwd to next yr.
Bro he was 19 in 2019. Everyone seems to forget he is basically just out of college right now
This is gonna be nice for the sport, the drama always is someting good, cristiano vs messi, nadal federer, Jakob vs Kerr.
Seems to me that Ingebrigtsen would be more concerned with his family issues (his father) than with what Josh Kerr thinks. Jakob is, what, 23? He hasn't even matured as a runner yet. Seems safe to guarantee much more success in the next few years.
Love these new vids covering smack talkers, keep em coming :))
Josh gave Jakob a backhanded complement. Of course, Jakob has weaknesses.
Jakob has been fortunate to have a father and older brothers that have discovered key 🔑 methods to better training for high record breaking performances.
Josh and jakob are talented. This will be viewed as smack talk and both will use it as motivation. The sport should be better because of it.
A paced race is one where a runner leads at a more or less prescribed pace and has little or no intention of competing, possibly even of completing, the entire distance. This is what happens in almost all Diamond League middle distance and distance races. It only occasionally happens in a WC or OG final, usually when two runners from the same country are in the race, but one of them is clearly better than the other. The 1968 OG 1500 meters springs to my mind as an example.
The fact that a runner chooses to sit on the leader’s shoulder with the intention of eventually sprinting to victory does not by itself constitute a paced race.
He might just be delusional but my money is on mind games. Only way to bet someone that’s superior to you is to get in their head.
Josh Kerr in Madness Multiverse!
😅 Calm down dude. He never said he was better, he IS the world champion and frankly he just told Jakob everything he needs to know to never be beaten again.
if i were kerr i wouldn’t be trying to motivate jakob
Lol brilliant strategy, helping your direct rival improve 6+ months in advance of the Olympics.
I have to admit that I always root against Jakob. This is due to his arrogance and due to the fact that he is young and the best. I would like to see others win so there is more balance and for sure I like it when older guys get time in the sun before their time at or near the top ends. I respect humility and Jakob lacks this. Give me Barry Sanders respectfully handing the ball to the ref over Neon Deion Sanders' over-the-top displays of arrogance any day.
Give me Christian McCaffery doing the same as Barry! But not a damn thing wrong with Deion enjoying his blessing and giving back some smack!
You shoule NEVER give your rival bulletin board material. Kerr may regret this if he doesn't place first.
Forget Ingebrigtsen, Kerr talking all this smack like Nuguse isn't gonna hawk him next year.
my glorious king
Personally think this is brilliant for the sport because it will get people intrigued by 2 top athletes having an altercation which will increase its popularity
Salty behavior never works. Attacking character almost never works and can certainly backfire, even if what you’re saying is true. Best approach is to focus and dial in on your own issues with mental states, pacing, strength, recovery, endurance, diet. fill your headspace with positivity and no one else.
Can we appreciate Jake Whiteman for a minute. Jakob had his fair share of comments on him and seemed unable to mention his name at some points, but Whiteman has just kept his head down and grinded. All class
Let's see how Josh does in Paris after feeding Jakob's fire.
When you're on the top everyone wants your scalp. That he gets so cocky after beating him only once speaks to how dominant Jackob really is. I hope Jakob is a hundred percent next championship final. The Jakob haters all say it is just an excuse that Jakob wasn't well in Budapest, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't say the same if it was their favorite who had bad luck. I want Jakob to have the race of his life and not only win, but to crush the competition and shut their mouths. What they call overconfidence I call an objective analysis of his abilities.
I love this style and vibe of this video, keep it up!
This is a good video. I like it so that's what's up
Jakob's best response would be to win in Paris as the pacer, then demanding Kerr to help pace him to a world record in a Diamond League event.
Good luck getting another interview with Josh Kerr 😂😂
Me personally I wouldn’t talk down on someone younger and faster than me
Jakob got world records. Josh got lucky.
There's a reason Athletics isn't a time trial sport. Where they all go off separately.
It's a race. One which Jakob was desperate for and Josh won.
How many "paced" races has Kerr won? That pretty much puts everything in perspective.
Kerr didnnot want to talk about that Jakub was recovering from a flu
👍💪
It's pretty simple. Kerr is correct. Jakob lacks 800m speed and doesn't have great acceleration for a miler. I don't see him winning gold in Paris in the 15. I do think he will win the 5k though.
It's true that he lacks 800m speed. Which is why he makes it a 1500m race and leads from the gun. But for Kerr to call that a "major weakness" is nonsense because Jakob is literally the most consistent runner in the world.
He hasn't finished outside the top 2 in any race since 2019. Who else is that consistent? Nobody.
Having good 800m speed does pay off sometimes. But having superior endurance pays off more often. So endurance training is Jakob's focus. And it has guaranteed him a 🥇 or 🥈 every time he lines up. Hard to critique that!
There is no rivalry. Kerr isn't even close.
Ego eats up brain.
For those of us who do not have the time to listen to podcasts, except for not faring well in non-paced races there was not much told about what Kerr had to say about Ingerbritsen, so it is hard to judge just based on this video alone. It still is a valid point that in tactical races Ingerbritsen may be vulnerable. Pacing the first lap is one thing, pacing the second and third is another.
Remember qualification rounds do not count. Ingerbritsen is 7-2 against Kerr and losing the World Championships is a big one.
bro is the #1 jakob glazer
“Rivalry”
The sport needs this, go kerr!
Josh is a 1500 specialist, while Jakob has more range but will show up and beat the best in each event
It’s like the “your move” but without dental hygiene (this joke would’ve worked better if Jakob was also from GB)
❤
Jakob out here pacing Kerr to the WC Gold apparently....
Good vid.
I don't think Kerr is saying he's better than Jakob. He's just saying he's vulnerable. Josh has always been this cocky and confident (ex. writing "British record" on his spikes before he ran an indoor record). Jakob is incredible and Josh knows that, but I'm glad Josh is willing to openly challenge him because nobody else is.
Kerr have bad sportsmanship. Aided or not aided, it's all mindset/mental. I'd like to see kerr and wightman re-race ingebrigtsen. They're all scared!!
Josh said all this stuff like he didn’t get out kicked and beat on the inside in a 3:31 race while Jakob did one of the most impressive distance double (Jakob was actually able to out-kick the guy chasing him down, take notes Kerr 🤫) a week later and would’ve CLAPPED Ker’s cheeks in both the mile and 3000. Lots of shit talk towards a guy who’s PR’s are several seconds faster and who’s 3 years younger. But fr the Olympics will be a good rematch for them both to put their money where their mouth is, assuming Jakob gets healthy soon and can start training
Who won the most important race between these two last season? Jakob himself rated his season like a 7/10 when he lost only a single and that one was the one were Kerr came out on top.
After watching and listening to Josh Kerr, it seems like he's quite bitter about being quite a bit behind Jakob, who is three years younger, in everything. Of course, he should be happy about his World Championship gold, but he defeated an unwell Jakob who was strongly advised by doctors not to compete in that race. Furthermore, Jakob doesn't need a pacemaker to win his big races; most of the time, it's Jakob who leads the entire field of runners to new personal records. If Jakob is injury-free and healthy, he's incredibly tough (!) to beat in everything from 1500m to 5000m, including the 3000m hurdles. When it comes to strategic running, Kerr, in my opinion, has much more to learn than Jakob. I know a very effective strategy that Jakob employs; he trains both more and better than everyone else, which, in turn, gives him a GREAT sense of mastery when he stands on the starting line.
Really poor from Kerr. I'm a Brit and Kerr needs to consistently beat Jakob, across all distances before he can say anything like this. It's embarrassing 😂
