Props to Mario, backing up a stellar indoor season. He seems to be the leading contender for new 800 meter king.

I still believe in a fit Amos to sweep this season. Assuming he really is fit and not injured as he so often is.
His name is MARIANO, not mario. What a race!
The "king" based on winning a world indoor title in 1.46?
Here are the last 5 winners of this title
Kszczot, Berrian, Aman, Aman, Kaki - the best of this group was Aman but was could hardly be referred to as "the King" at any point in his career over the distance.
So congrats to him but the King? I don't think so.
Not the king but those people have had great careers.
Berrian winning the US title in 2016 was a pretty good accomplishment.
Considering that he was nowhere near the top 10 in the world last year, it does mean he could be somewhat promising. If he doesn't make the world final this year, he would be the most disappointing of that list.
