Any chance these guys have the same PR agent? This almost seems like staged UFC theater at this point
I blame the journalists for this one. They kept teasing comments out of both of them in every single interview. They have nothing interesting to report so they resort to manufacturing drama. Scum.

I’ve been thinking the same thing for a while. I fell for the April fools post about them being best friends and it’s all staged for a Netflix documentary. Because it could very well be true. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a documentary come out about the rivalry in a few years.
Kudos to Kerr for this. He’s the reigning world champion, and he deserves respect. Jakob needs to learn to respect the champ.
It's an Olympic year. Who is the reigning Olympic champion?
rent free 😂
That was 3 years ago. In the last global 1500m championship, Kerr was the victor. Respect the champ.
who cares
Kerr tanked his 1600m leg in the dmr (4:20) in 2018 so that he could be fresh for the mile final. Absolutely disgusting. This is the kind of person Kerr is. If you think ingebrigtsen is full of himself, go hang out with this guy (or even worse depend on him), and you’ll see a new meaning to that. Great runner, but Kerr cares only about Kerr.
i’m not going to combat that with my own comments says the guy who started it all, with own comments 🙄

Jakob initiated all of this with his "just the next guy" comment.
…all I know is that Jakob has already decided that he will say that he was injured or sick for the Olympics.
He will probably not even be present.
I had no idea he was that bad

If you actually believe this you've either never had a debilitating side stitch or you genuinely hate him (freak behavior).

Cycling journalist have the dream. So much variety, pros are constantly racing classics, 1 week stage races, grand tours, etc etc.And the cyclists give superior replies.
Imagine trying to do PR/Interviews for a sport where the race distance is 3 minutes, the stars are boring/stale/1-dimensional, and they race 5 times a year.

That's why cycling quickly is growing as a sport and running isn't.

Nevertheless. Kerr is born a star, he speaks nobly, and acts like having some royal blood. Everything he represents would make American media full of envy and admiration.
Josh Kerr is the absolute worst. Jakob is funny. Kerr is a cry baby.
