Pretty obvious that one was in college and the other in high school. And one was an 800 and the other a mile.
And Brazier is over 19 years old. So he's been voting for a year. He's no youngster on the world stage. Only here.
So remember that Webb was in High school and it makes the answer simple.
They aren't comparable. If they were you'd be asking which is better Brazier's 800 or Jim Ryan's everything in high school.
Stupid question to start with. They are both great performances.And the end of their careers it will be more appropriate to rank them. In your mind.

formerD1's claimed 1:50 in HS beats both of these wannabes.
Brazier's 1:43 at (barely) 19 is worth 3:51 at 18, so is superior to Webb's HSR. Also, Brazier is only one second off the 800 AR, Webb was six seconds off the mile AR.
Brazier is like 2.6 seconds off the WR in the 800 as a college freshman. That's equivalent to 3:31-3:32 in the 1500 or 3:48-3:49 in the mile (5-6 seconds off the WR). Webb's HS mile of 3:53 was 10 seconds off, but he was 1 year younger. I'd call them about equal.
Webb, high school record, versus Brazier beating a collegiate record.
I saw both on TV, and Webb's was the more shocking!
