Whilst a lot of this back of forth is mind games, it's not just about getting inside your opponents head, it's also about creating expectations for yourself that you feel you have to fulfill. It reminds me a bit of the part in Pumping Iron where Arnold phoned his Mum in Austria to let her know he had won the day before the competition.

If I'm not mistaken Out of 14 races where they've competed, Jacob has won 12. He's got room to talk. Kerr is the one who started making it personal & has to rely on a strategic/slow race to win.

There is some healthy competition and they both hate to lose but they are definitely embellishing the narrative for hype. I like them both. And Yared. Like them all

I'm sure he said it with his tongue in his cheek. It's just building a rivalry. It is what the sport needs.

Let’s go Jakob ❤❤❤!!!

Jakob knows his body. Running has been his whole life and knows when he is fit. All I can say is we have to believe him when he says he is in winning form. “A walk in the park” though is designed to be inflammatory and I think he trying to get under Kerrs skin.

I cannot wait to see this race!! Maybe the most exciting event in any track meet anywhere!!

You 100% want Jacob to back it up.

There is no rivalry Kerr can't hold a candle to Jakob.

A winner is likely to be the one with a strong mindset.

He can’t and neither can anyone try to

Imagine if he jumped on the juice how fast he would run.

Jakob! ✌️

I love this smack talk, but it’s what they need to do, to pump themselves up for the inevitable meeting. Truth be told, these guys have an enormous amount of respect for each other.

Sounds like the Mile/1500m runners of late 1950's 60's who battled to break 4min mile and sub 3.5min for 1500. There were exciting Runners like Landy, Delany, Elliot, Clark to name just a few. The rivalry was huge, but I believe Herb Elliot came out on top, winning the Gold in Rome Olympics 1960. Good luck . The winner will be the one best prepared and best strategist. Good luck will play some part

We love this keep posting!

I can't wait till the Steve Prefontaine pre race Diamond League Conference . There should be some fireworks .... lol

Maybe if the wasn’t any coverage of there would be less of it. Let’s go gents, run fast!!!

I guess channels like this is not about running just gossip. If Jakob had done one race this year then this would be more interesting. Having a great ego is something most running athletes needs to win.

This is like Drake vs Kendrick where Jakob is Kendrick and is gonna smoke Kerr

hyping up before fight . same as any ufc sport or other 1vs1 challenges- lets se what they show on next tournament

does not mean so much. Jakob is best. Gotta be kidding me. There is no rivalry now. If Josh wins the Olympics and the DL final, then we've got ourselves a rivalry in Worlds next year.

Jakob is talking this way because he has to psych himself up to beat Kerr, who just TOOK his heart when they last met head to head. Jakob had never thought that Kerr would improve to beat him, and now that Kerr has, Jakob is talking 'walk in the park' talk to hype up his bruised ego. Good luck. He is going to need it.

I am Team Jakob, but this is critical

I think TRP is gonna come up and nab the title

Don't rule out other world class athletes who could defeat both Kerr and Ingebrigtsen in the 1500m in the Olympics this year.

Jakob gonna smash Kerr and finally shut his yap. Kerr got to full of himself over little achievement

These are the two best 1500m runners in the world right now but neither of them would win any prizes for their trash-talking lol. And who cares much anyway about what they say now?....it's what they do in a few months time that counts and the talk will be completely forgotten....in fact, most of us are not really listening to it even now.

A lot of people in the comments act like they aren't training hard just because there is some trash talk. Both of these guys can make comments between workouts.

Jacob keeps on using saying's in his comments , "I can beat you blindfolded" " it's going to be a walk in the park " ..... it's basic trash talk , that's what we said in middle school and high school . Don't look to far into it , Jacob walks the walk and talks the talk . When's the last time he lost a Diamond league race , a long time ago ! In other words , it's playground trash talk . Nothing more nothing less

But neither of them are gonna take the gold haha

No Andrew. We need this trash talk. Great for the sport. Encourage them to start talking more like boxers or MMA fighters. Hell, maybe even have trash talk, push-n-shove weigh-ins. 😅

Any chance Kerr peaks too soon before Pasri? Hope not.

I think the ‘rivalry’ is mostly in Kerr’s mind. I don’t think Jakob cares much about school girl tittle tattle.

Now do you see what I mean about Ingebrigtsen?? Kerr simply reacts to Jakob’s arrogance, he’s provoked by him. I really don’t understand why some people don’t see this.

lets wait for Eugene Jakob and Nuguse They are after all the 2 fastest milers of the century .

He wasn’t too disrespectful in the actual podcast, this video paints him in a worse slight. Please listen to the podcast if you haven’t, it’s only about 15 minutes

1 race Kerr beat him . And that’s all people talk about.

That statement has been Jakob's MO since before the Kerr "beef". He is just overly confident when asked about his prospects. This video is not about anything new. If he had not gotten injured you would probably still be in camp Jakob. Kerr has been doing great but Jakob not racing has really been the main cloud of uncertainty at this point.

« World record shape » … no, no matter how well he is training he is nowhere close to 3:26

Arrogance can make you say and do some crazy things

Regardless of the rivalry, the author is overly biased against Ingeburtson, IMO

This trash talk is great for building anticipation to these races, don’t know why everyone is hating

So what do we think, Ingebritsen comes 2nd or 3rd and then suddenly declares he has an illness?

Most amusing part of this to me is how you keep hyperventilating and hyping up one of the lamest beefs in sports history. lol

Jacob saying that he could beat Josh Kurr blindfolded it's getting extremely cocky!!!! Josh is a great athlete also!!!! And you know what, if you keep getting cocky jacob, he's going to kick your ass in a punish mental way! Another words, God's going to punish you by preventing you from getting what you want!!! No one has respect for cocky people and that is also poor sportsmanship!!! There's a difference between being competitive and being egomaniac cocky!!!
