Souleiman in sub 3:30 1500 shape in May!

Agreed 100%. Though, I'd love to see kiprop drop a 3.26 bomb in Rome or something.

If Kiprop can't return to form

I don't know why everyone assumes Kiprop is better than Kiplagat. Kiplagat has a better PB and dominated last year. He is the #1 guy whether Kiprop returns to form or not

Because kiprops got dem medals b7tch

unless he is peaking in May. This may be his fastest 800m this year.

Let's b real here, kiprop is overrated, always has been. He got fifth. He's just another part of the 1500 toss-up. Shut up about kiprop, souleiman's the real deal this year, callin it.

Yes!!! Kiprop is good, he's had some great performances, but he has never been as dominant as some would like to make him out to be. Like others in the history of the sport, he was in the right place at the right time, at a time when there weren't a lot of super talents or another dominant runner, like El G or a 1500 guy as dominant as Geb was at the longer races at some point. Now that a bunch of young, fast guys are coming along, he's looking not quite so fantastic, never mind age catching up with him.

Souleiman just needs to be consistent. He's awesome - a throwback to guys from the 80's who could not only run well at both the 800 & 1500 but be dominant in both. Plus he has guts, he'll go for it. Wouldn't be surprised to see 1:42 / 3:27 out of him this year and maybe a bit better in 2016.
