You all do realize Kipchoge has only lost once in a marathon, where he finished 2nd. Mo Farrah has never broken 2:05 and even that's as a cheater. Kipchoge is the world record holder and has run 2:05:00 or faster NINE TIMES!. The only time he's been slower than 2:05:00 is when he went 2:05 and change in his first marathon and when he won the gold medal in the Olympics in 2016. You have to be on crack and meth at thensame time to think Farrah has a reasonable shot and winning unless Kipchoge is somehow hurt, which he never is. I mean seriously, you have to be a retard to think that.
