Love Jakob. He's fit and this was only his first race. People love to hate on him but he's good for the sport.
He rubs some people the wrong way because he comes off as arrogant.
@@delargealex Absolutely!
Having Josh Kerr beat Jakob is good for the sport
Agreed Jakob is an all time great! And coming back from injury he is always an impressive competitor
@@candiceverpaelst-ud3kk still not good enough for Kerr though 😃
Not defending anyone here but a question to consider is maybe his attitude (whether liked or not) is the reason he has been so dominant in the past years, he fully believes in himself and that is not easy to find.
Wether people like him or not is another story but the guy has a serious record and won’t be easy to beat I think most are agreeing with that. Just some food for thought, like him or hate him, the way he thinks most definitely plays a role in his personal success.
Kerr has adopted this same mental attitude and approach. Jakob himself doesn’t seem to like it.
Dont remember if he said it during a ordinary interwiew or during the Ingebrigtsen show. (Team ingebrigtsen)
Earlier in his career he told himselves that he was the best (even when he knew he wasnt) - He had to have that mindset if he wanna become the best..
If you have to much respect for other athletes you will strugle to be the best
belive it was something like that he said
It's literally the same attitude Jordan and Tiger had. Dominance almost always does.
Attitude at this level is Huge...check Kerr and Ingebrigtsen...but this guy is /ARROGANT. how else can you describe his dismissal of the questions...asking questions back in such a confrontational attitude
his lack of respect to his rivals post race is giving a bad look but he is an awesome racer for sure
The 1500m is back as the premier event besides the 100m
@sandman1347 ehh not really. More so it’s whatever Noah is running if he’s at the meet running the 100 it will be more exciting than the 200m at the same meet
What makes you think the 1500 is the 2nd most important event right now? That seems a strange claim to make when there is no threat of the world record falling.
@@sandman1347 there’s even less of a chance of the 100m record falling. Jakob ran the 3rd fastest mile time ever last year, yet Noah has not touched 9.7. So by your logic the 1500m is way more exciting
@@ovah8784 The 100 has ALWAYS been the marquee track race. Other distances only enter the conversation when there is a historic performer (like when Mo Salah competed in the 5k/10k or when Michael Johnson did the 200/400. Honestly Jakob has been disproportionately hyped up IMO. Especially for a guy who is currently second best at his main race distance. And for the record, the 200 is far more interesting than the 1500 right now.
@@sandman1347 Except, like you said, the only thing that makes the events exciting is if there is a threat of the world record falling. The 1500m has a threat from falling from Yared and Jakob, MAYBE even Kerr if he continues to improve. The only person who is even threatening in the 200 is Lyles, so I can agree that it’s more exciting then the 100 but I’d say it’s on par with the excitement of the 1500
Jakob admitting that Ker was strong for the day, shows that he's learning from his rivals. Not boasting.
I am really beginning to like this guy. Have always respected his ability but it would be incorrect to characterize him as arrogant. He is above all honest and analytical in his assessment. He will be faster in Paris and I wouldn’t bet against him.
I think Jakob will win gold
He’s absolutely incredibly arrogant. All of his statements are in service to his perceived superiority. It’s part of what makes him great. And it’s also what makes him a prick who is incredibly unlikable as a person. He never gives actual real credit to anyone else. He always finds a way to make himself look good. Watch his body language. He’s even disrespectful to those questioning him, but does it in a fake polite way. As a person he’s a gigantic a hole. As a competitor he’s great and I enjoy watching him, but I will never like him. The more I watch the more I feel this way. I’ve seen him at Hayward for as long as he’s been competing there. And the more I watch his interviews and the excuses he makes when he loses the less I respect him as a person. Hard not to respect him as a competitor though. There are lots of successful jerks in this world and he’s in the hall of fame for that.
This was a very good interview. Great job, Citius Mag.
Ah yes the way the pussied out of the hard questions because a cocky Elen Degenerous gave them attitude and talked to them like he was their daddy, bang on job lads.
Thanks to Citius (and Jakob) for a fun, informative and entertaining interview video clip.
The honesty is remarkable! I love it and don’t find it disrespectful at all.
He's a tough personality to warm to. Competitiveness and self-belief are vital to get to the very top. Not sure arrogance necessarily is.
He is very good at illustrating his competition and strategies.
4:48 he wasn't even peaking for the race and he came really close to Kerr so he still has some in the tank for Paris
Oh and you think Kerr doesn't?
@@Darrenski jakob's been doing alternative training for many months. That's the difference
Yep.
@@Darrenski He doesn't.
@@Darrenski he wasn't coming off an injury like Jakob and based off his recent declarations of how hard he was training and not listening to the advice from his coach, yes he may not be in his top shape for Paris. Remember he also got a WR in the indoors last winter so I doubt he can cycle so fast in his periodization
His first race of the year was a 3:45.60 mile. Does that sound like a bad result?
Strongest runner usually wins. Lol I love that.
This guy is good at finishing 2nd
Man Kerr definitely had his day but look at how he handles defeat...This man is out here dropping jewels even when he lost. "The strongest runner always wins.....unless he uses up his energy too quickly" a lot to learn in this interview in my opinion. Confidence sometimes is saying a LOT with VERY LITTLE. Regardless Kerr had a day but the war is still on
Very intelligent young man.
You should all believe him in what he says. He would NEVER have had this kind of interview if he was at his best and not won. I believe Kerr is stronger than he ever has been, but I dont think that will be enough to beat Jakob at his best.
Iron sharpens Iron. This rivalry will bring down the WR.
Nice one Kerr! 😄
Yes. Kerr is good. This season it looks stronger than before. Apparently he changed his training. But Ingebritsen was no less surprised. I thought he was generally weak after injuries.
A very fast and impressive run by Jacob, coming back from injury. Certainly if he improves his fitness 1-2 percent in the next 2 months he will be very well positioned to win, even double, in Paris. But it is not a stupid question about whether he is reconsidering his racing tactics. There is a real physical penalty for leading versus drafting, like a half per lap second. Yes he wins like 18 out of 20, but he was outkicked in the last two championship finals, so it's a valid consideration. If he has one slight weakness (aside from his stubbornly predictable race tactics) it seems to be a top gear to kick hard in the last 100m of a fast 15 vs Kerr or Wightmen. He chases them to the line but doesn't seem to have the top gear. Ok, small sample size, maybe he was sick both times. This is unknowable. We'll get our answer in Paris.
Although he is obnoxiously full of himself, I can definitely see him training well until Paris and winning, he definitely did better than I expected today. Thought he was going to pass Kerr at the end…
There's like a month and a half.
@@JeremiahSmiith 2 and a half months, lol. He did say at 7:26 that he was very strong today.
He's not.
He's not full of himself, he just knows how good he is lol
Not as full as Kerr. Kerr's so full of himself, he doesn't need a mirror to see his own reflection.
I run trails and everyone is so friendly and supportive and encouraging and complimentary of each other!!! Never ever heard another ultra trail runner, world-class or otherwise, ever say anything even remotely like "that's a punch in the face in their direction!!"😳
Win in Paris and shut everyone up. There's a reason he's so confident some consider him arrogant. He should be. Predict he wins in Paris and settles the who is the goat talk.
circumspect, i like it. He knows where he's at
Pride
It’s easier to run and control a race when someone taking you through 800m than doing it yourself - altho he’s not a naturally as fast over 400m as others so has to run that way / and he has tried different tactics of taking lead at 600m as opposed to leading earlier
W Jakob
lol Jakub if you run 20 races and you win 18 of 20--statistically...haha--- he's not wrong i think the reporter was like yeahhhh so now that kerr is fitter-- do you think that may not be optimal strategy even though you could win by purer talent before. so you may wanna be smarter.
It's well known that these Brits figured out how to beat him. They're not just fit enough to pull it off. They know he doesn't have the kick. In order to beat them he needs two things. 1. He needs to be the fittest. And 2., the race needs to be fast so they can't out kick him at the end.
So considering this, yeah totally. He needs to probably think about this in terms of recent events rather than a statistical whole.
Not to mention he struggles to run fast races without a pacer. He seems to have some blind spots with this strategy.
He needs to run 5k
@@JeremiahSmiith but he aint wrong tho - first time Kerr beat him Jakob was unlucky and fell ill during the WC - leading to this race Jakob has been injuried and havent been able to put down the training nedeed to be 100%.
But sure Kerr looks strong so who knows what happends in the OL
@@jkdure yeah he likes his excuses. Getting injured and getting sick is part of the game. If you can't take care of yourself you're not going to stay on the top. That's just how it is. Anyone who was ever the best of all time was able to do it by staying injury free and sick free when it mattered. So we will see.
Huge fan of Jacob. If he doesn’t win, well- no big deal. There’s a bigger picture - Paris
Homelanders son has been doing great i see.
I think Jacob can set a WR in 3000 meters, or 5000 meters late this season after the olympics, but if the realy goes for the WR, then he should doo it in a field that dosen't contain Josh Kerr. Because Jacob is a bit stronger than Kerr on those distanses unless it ends up with a sprint for the finish. Jacob don't need somebothy on the last two laps to break WR, but Sosh Kerr needs Jacob to pull sometning like this off as i see it.
God blessing you Jakob ingebrigtsen
And Jesus crist
Kerr is good! But lets remember that last year both Jakob and Yared ran 2 seconds faster. I trust Jakob will be better in the olympics.
And so will Kerr, you think he’s gonna stop training or smth 😂
@@gbm8432 not necessarialy training will make he run 2 seconds faster man, that would be a gigantic upgrade
He knew he could have won that, but it was not good for the long-term, having that be his first race of the season. Pushing two or three seconds harder would have been dumb.
Jacob is the best. He will defeat him next time.100 percent sure
Jakob seriously trying to mansplain championship racing tactics at Haywayd Field to THE Mac Fleet? I still do appreciate the race breakdown. Thanks gents!
did he really not mention his name a single time?
6:26 can tell he’s frustrated by his sigh and was looking for an excuse and ended up blaming the stadium
He’s always making excuses
he admitted it is difficult not much he can do to pass kerr??
Was his first race
That's not even him sighing
Thats the camera man sighing
Josh Kerr lives rent free in this dudes head. Any time a question was posed, Jakob turned his answer towards Kerr.
He didnt say his name the whole time
@@alexjackson1614 He did say at 7:26 that he was very strong.
True, while comentatimg the race but not when asked questioms about racing or the season in general. I domt think theres any reason to think that he was just thinking about kerr the entire time
Jacob lives rent free in your head 😎
@@alexjackson1614 he mentioned Josh on the last question. Last 30 seconds. He also talked about the “composition” and Josh is his only comp. When referring to comp, he was speaking about Josh.
I remember when all his glazers were saying Jakob was gonna smash El Guerrouj's records by now, 2024. Now all Jakob needs to worry about is making sure a British runner doesn't take his medal.
he's 23 bro. you bozos are born and bred haters lmao
Usually always 🤣
Jacob’s English is not perfect and his way of expressing himself gets misunderstood when it is mixed with his Norwegian way of talking. In spite of being the guy everybody wants to interview, and after having lost the race that everybody more or less expected him to win, he was gracious enough to spend 10 mins with reporters answering questions about the race he lost. Find anybody else that will do that. He has had little competion when it really matters, and when he loses, the world is shocked. Statistically he is the best and has been since he was 17 and will go down as this generations Emil Zatopek, the father of interval training.
his English is perfect
I love his confidence and dare I say..a little bit of arrogance...A real competitor and you could see (feel) he wanted to win, but of course~
Reading a lot of Jakob comments over the years really just has me believing people are allergic to confidence, smh
My impression is that he got a bit defensive in that interview, trying to convince himself as much as the interviewer. Great race, though.
But but I'm the best
@@JeremiahSmiith someone's got a god complex...
@@doloreschansey9556 you know I'm imitating Jakob right
Jacobs stuberness will cost him gold
Jacob, you either love him or hate him. There is no in between
@@driver9337 I guess I'm not decent.
I reckon he’ll get silver in the 1500 and bronze in the 5000
He can’t really lose in an Olympic or WC 5k unless the others make it seriously fast. He might not have a kick relative to the 1500 runners but it’s still light years ahead of 5000/10000 runners
Jakob don't be over confident again!!
He plays an arrogant persona. People hate on him for that when Kerr is constantly running his mouth. They're just going to follow the person opposing Jakob.
Fine line between arrogance and confidence, in my opinion his arrogance has lost him 2 world titles, but mainly his disprespect of others abilities
Sour Grapes.
“How’s that been working for them?”
Well, Kerr has kicked your ass twice and Whitman once🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
He’s kicked Kerrs ass 11 times before budepest
How's the head-to-head record dumby
Yeah but not when it counts. That’s like acing all your tests and failing the exam…two years in a row lol.
he admitted the two lost out of the 20 he ran, winning 18/20 with his tactic and you want him to do otherwise?
You say that when Jakob has beaten them both equally over 10 times😂
But if the 2 out of the 20 you lose are the finals .. 🤷♀️
He won the Olympics...its bigger than the WC 🙃
@@viggostenvard9906 very true however since then , maybe people have closed in on him , and beaten him , not saying they are better but sometimes you need to change things . Just because something worked for awhile doesn’t mean it will always work for.
@@stephensimmons8657 I agree to a point but lets wait untill he has been beaten at least 5-6 times out of 20.
@@viggostenvard9906he’s lost the last 3/3 races in the last 3 biggest 1500 races. I would say that’s not working
@@gbm8432 3 big races? Do you count this one where he come back from an injury? The Whiteman one was unexpected, Kerr in the last WC was because he wasnty 100% healthy...so Im not worried...yet.
Lacks any pace to go past anyone in the finish if behind, just has no finishing kick when required and will not win Paris for sure.
Jakub is extremely talented.
Unfortunately he has one of the worst fanbases in world sports.
They remind me of Leo Messi (soccer) fanatics.
Extremely disrespectful and obsessive.
You are American pipe down
You can pretty much say that about each end every fanbase. No matter the athlete, club etc. Ronaldo’s fans can be really obnoxious, just like Messi’s fans. The same is for Jakob and Kerr. I don’t think you can generalize like that, or better said, it doesn’t make sense to put all the people into one box, because it usually is, that all the dickheads who talk crap about an athlete are always the loudest. Even when they are in smaller amounts than the positively thinking people.
you dont see all the haters in these comments? lmao that's what breeds it.
@@yayz9442 There are circa 170 comments, so I do not think it makes sense to generalize, which is what I get from your comment, generalization based on couple comments.
@@petrmach241 and most of them are being haters because he’s confident in himself.
Jakob cant double in Paris, he'll never have the kick at 1.5 training for 5k. Someone in his team should tell him,
Facts
but then again what is the need for it when you lead by a good distance
Nobody loves Jakob as much as Jakob. But he counts on having superior fitness to run 3 laps so fast the rest of the field is gassed, giving him a 20+ meter lead with 150m to go. But now Kerr is just as fit, and Kerr, Cole Hocker, Hobbs Kessler, and Yared Nguse all have better kicks than Jakob. Paris is going to be exciting.
5k gold and 15 silver is still a great day tho
@@repsaknivek I mean-- he did have a pretty good kick today honestly because of running more in pack. and that's with less speedwork than normal. i think him front running so much does zap his kick so theres prolly more to it if he saves kick instead of front running
Omg he still does not get it 😮😮😮 this guy has zero chance of winning the Olympic gold again
"Zero chance" is just a stupid thing to say isn't it.
He ran 3:45 low after 8 months of non racing and also coming off an injury. He is very well positioned for the gold. Those are facts
want to bet he doesn't win a gold?
hes so cocky bruh i hope kerr wins
