Mo would've run like he normally does from the back, and by the time he decided to make his move to the front (which usually works just about flawlessly) Centro would've taken off and Mo would've had to run a ridiculously fast last lap in order to catch Centro, which no one was able to do.

He could've gone toe-to-toe with Centro. Def gold medal contender.
What if Mo Quadrupled? 1500, 5000, 10,000, marathon. How would he have done in the 1500 and marathon after the 5K/10K double gold?
He should have quintupled and added the steeplechase. Surely he would have beaten the whining Mekidickyi

Why didn't YOU tell him (and us) this BEFORE Rio?

No.
I am not saying MoMo (man-husband of Tania kitten tiger) could have done the triple.
I am saying MoMo could have done a quadruple easily…and especially if he did an autologous blood transfusion…like the medium-WhiteBritDoperCheaterLiar™ Paula Radcliffe…of Monte Carlo, Monaco.
(Paula does not really live in Britain. I think it is because she does not want to pay Brit taxes like normal British people….if there are any.)
Do you know if Paula Radcliffe pays British taxes?
What are typical (high!!!) British tax rates?
Do you know?
I do not know.
I do not care.
I suspect I know who this is.
LOL. The race was won in 3:50, he runs the 1500 in 3:28 would have won by 22 seconds--it would have been so easy. The rounds were a little faster, but he would have won by about 10 seconds in most of them, maybe more. 10 seconds is like the length of the whole straight away, it wouldn't even have been close.
