Long term - Sumner because he looks like he's still got some growing to do, in contrast with Flatt who's essentially 100 percent developed at this age. Plus he's got a higher ceiling with 45 second speed.
I just asked in another thread, "Are the scheduled to race each other?" It needs to happen and we need it either to be in a pro field or at least a race with a pro rabbit like Sowinski.
Flatt obviously. He's just getting started, running on very low mileage while sumner has been training like crazy for years. In two years, Flatt will be @1:42 high while sumner will be @1:44 high and will be just a run of the mill guy. Flatt is your medal winner come 2024.
In the long term, Sumner will definitely be better than Flatt. Right now Flatt looks like a fully grown man and Sumner still looks like a kid. Sumner has a lot more room from growth than Flatt does. At the 100, 200, and 400, Sumner would smoke Flatt.
Currently they are pretty close in the 800 but I would give a slight edge to Sumner. He would run faster than Flatt if he had someone pulling him this past weekend. If nothing else, I would want Sumner to win just because Flatt is an unlikable person.
Exactly what the Sumner loverboys have been doing. All nonsensical gibberish. They pump up their little hero but he's really got nothing to offer. He'll run a bit faster in the next couple of years, plateau and then we'll forget about him. Flatt will last and will drop his times much further.

You said it right. Flatt looks like a man. A real athlete. He's got so much more upside than the small dweeb it's not even close. Also, I just want Flatt to win because he's so much more likeable. Sumner is extremely unlikeable. I truly don't even want to see him.
Just making things up and then predicting the future based on those things.

Flatt>>>Sumner
This suggests that Sumner has the better ceiling as he has more physical maturing to do. This is intuitive to most people.
The "small dweeb" currently smokes him in a 400m and is essentially tied at 800. The "small dweeb" doesn't wax poetic about Michael Granville's ghost like a little theater boy.
