Farah has won races in such slow times, it is almost a joke for him to be considered great. There were better runners than Mo Farah however they were against the might of Bekele in his prime. Sihine and Tadese are better runners than Farah in my opinion. How can Mo Farah be considered an all time great?
Mo Farah does not have COMPARABLE talent to us East Africans, I mean Alberto Salazar is making Farah sleep in some oxygen tent 12hrs a day (DAILY MAIL) and is using facilities Africans can only DREAM of and yet only beats (19-22yr olds) them by a small distance with a CRAP time (Some of the slowest championship track wins in the 21st century). Yet people are oblivious to this fact.
Its not hate, its brutal honesty, look at him today. This is his 3rd race in the HM and cannot break sub-60, you say I'm expecting too much, Tadese done it in his 2nd attempt and Bekele I believe still had another gear towards the end (HE SMIRKED). Bekele is the REAL threat to both WR in the HM and full marathon, however Farah should stay on track and beat this young, but so far weak generation cos he has no place on the road.
