Deegan has a lot of riders to go though before there's any conversation about beating Jett
Jetts the skidmark on the underpants of haiden deegan
Correct, the difference between Jett and deegan is well Jett is clearly dominant when he is comfortable. Deegan struggles at the moment with his current classmates.
Not as far as the 250 class goes. He’s already dusted them multiple times and made clean work of a full pack. The raw speed is there but he has a full 450 class to go through still yea
@@NumberOneBsthat’s why Craig was brought over and tomac/Webb help him..
They had him training on a 450 quite a bit more than other 250 riders.
They put so much into Deegan because how much he brings in and only focus on another rider if they make a top 5 finish at the end of the season.
Deegan is a beast but he ain't ready for Jett or Sexton
Ehhh outdoors he is, but sx it will definitely take him some time. I think when he moves up to the 450 people are going to be surprised at how much his level changes. He just has to ride the piss out of a 250 bc it doesn’t have enough power for him as fast as he wants to go but he won’t have that issue on the 450 and that’s when he will be able to slow down and learn those little things and smooth his riding style out in sx and will end up being very good, but that will take a season or two. But outdoors, that kid is gnarly and he already matches and beats the best guys laptimes on a 250 (even when the 450s have went first and 250s got a rougher track) so to think he can’t come in and be up there with them on a 450, come on now.
Deegan is getting a ton of credit not to be a sx champion yet.
It's wild people talk like he's perfect season material and he's just a top 3 guy on 250s
HES A 2 TIME SMX CHAMP AND OUTDOOR CHAMP
@@jamespatterson2002 yea he is. He’s great. I like him and thinks he’s good for sport. I just don’t know if he’s Jett’s biggest future rival. He’s not even the best 250 rider currently. Heck, he may not even be the best on his team with Davies. He’s kind of getting shown up by a rookie and a jet ski racer right now. The only rider more overrated than him is shimoda I believe. I think he’s great, I just don’t know if all the praise is good for the guy or if it’s setting expectations way too high too early or not.. I guess we’ll find out in the next few years. I was surprised to hear him say he looked up to someone like Dundey rather than rv or James. He seems more like a wreck or win type but hopefully he’ll be the next Mr consistent
@@jamespatterson2002 you casual Deegan fans are hilarious. SMX aren't real titles. Deegan has one title. One! When did you start following the sport? Couple years ago?
@@chrisbuehler6868 settle down, you act like a newb too.
Beaumer may have something to say about this he was so fast this weekend
I love juju but we must have watched different events
But couldn’t stay on two 😂
Supercross is supercross, outdoors Beamuer does not stand a chance.
@@K20rotrex I hope to god Beaumer wins the title
@@BCGTRADES Weird, Beaumer still got the red plate and Deegan behind old man Smith.
How do 2 people that aren’t in the same class have a rivalry?
Exactly
Because they are the 2 best riders in the country and you get rivalries started early, that’s how they typically work. You do realize it’s okay to talk about it now, right? It’s not like we aren’t also talking about the current guys they are both going against, but we can still bring up the future rivalry that is obviously coming
@@davidbiagi2932 Deegan isn't even the best lites rider lol, just the loudest
Media
It’s still not a rivalry. And Deegans not the best 250 rider.
Guys. You have 6 starts ( 3 and the triple crown) and so far this conversation is still just a fantasy. Deegan is chirping and not performing. Jett now just looks human
How is he not performing? He started off a little slow just bc of bad starts the first two, that happens. He got a good start round 3 and smoked everyone. Glendale was a triple crown and he raced solid and smart and didn’t override trying to get to the lead and crash and lose points. Davies rode good but it’s a triple crown and the track was tough to pass and you had to hit every section perfectly to even have a chance to pass and Davies did that and deegan was having trouble getting the one rhythm over the start every lap. Cant expect a guy to win every race. The level of competition is way too high but majority of the time, Haiden is going to smoke the entire field. It’s a long season and he’s 3 points out of the points lead, he is doing just fine. God forbid guys at the top not just go smoke everyone every race or else they are washed up and not performing 🙄
3 points behind first is definitely performing o no idea what your talking about
Deegan will take Jett out in a blink of an eye if he’s frustrated and a bit off pace and I don’t see Jett doing that. I think that could escalate things to shit show.
What has Deegan done? Lmao nothing dude what are you talking about?
You don’t remember Jett cleaning Mosiman’s clock when he was pissing Jett off? He has no problem doing it.
Jett is like Eli, Rv, Ricky, Ken etc. They talk with their bike skills and clean riding. Danger is aggressive like Barcia which is rad but just different.
@@mhengler27lol nothing. 2 SMX and an outdoor National Championship? Oh yea nothing. Stoooopid comment bra
@@mhengler27 hasn’t done much this sx season so far. He’s run his mouth about how x,y and z has one coming.
I like the aggressive riding and banging bars, I also like the clean riding.
I was referring to in a full blown multiple season rivalry like Jase and RC are talking about I could see that happening. He’s rode teammates aggressively on a few occasions when it didn’t mean anything, you don’t think he’d clean Jett out if all the chips were on the table?
The chase sexton disrespect has to stop dude.....u do understand that when Hayden moves up to 450....chase will still be there. It's not just Jett and Hayden. U guys will learn eventually. Deggan has 1 overall win on the weakest coast and u guys already hyping him up on a 450.
We want to see the 2x SMX Champ face off against the 2x SMX Champ... How is that so hard to understand? Chase can put himself in that conversation by, idk, winning the SMX Title.
I like Sexton but the problem is how he wins his Championships. I got nothing wrong with it because the best ability is availability but winning your 2 Titles from the best getting injured has the fans wanting to see him do it straight up.
They NEVER said it was just Jett and Haiden... Simply wanting the only SMX Championships to face off. Chase needs to put himself into that conversation by winning. This isn't a participation trophy sport. 👍
@tankeater so how many champions are there out here that have won because someone got hurt!!! I'd say multiple champs have. How many titles could Stewart have won if he didn't get hurt so much?? But u don't hear anyone else calling dungeys championships fake....or not earned.... Theres so many champs that only won because other riders got hurt....u can't just put that on chase when' the entire history of racing is based off that. Can't set a double standard for 1 rider but not the rest Hayden hasn't raced 1 450 class and people are hyping him up....how about he shuts his mouth and win more than 1 race on this weak west coast he chose to race
@skylerwade5916 yes, there has been. Guess you don't understand what I ment by best ability is availability.
Dungey got top 3 for almost a straight decade and won every single championship after JS7 was done, never getting a top 3 after Dungey joined the Premier class... So, yah, that tells me your knowledge of this sport.
Why is that coast weak? Ooooooo, rightright, it's because the comp got scared East. Talk about revisionist history! You're doing it less than a month later?! LMFFFAAAOOO hypocrisy at its finest. 🤦♂️👍
@tankeater no dog,ur absolutely stupid. U must think dungey was better than Stewart was too huh.....such a bum dude lol Hayden chose west coast because all the other riders already committed to the other coast so he knew the easiest way to go and if u think that because LEVI left ,ur just high or dumb. Because If I'm correct Hayden can barley beat Davies ,a 16 year old rookie ....looks like running ur mouth every week at people for absolutely no reason is starting to come back on him....I pray his ass comes to 450 next season. About to average 9th place lol
Ricky probably knows what he sees and I doubt he is trying to make friends…get your popcorn
In the MEANTIME
There're BOTH Getting Smoked
neither is getting Smoked
@LetBrockBye ok Brock Hahaha
@@LetBrockBye Deegs is choking like he always does. That SX championship is still a dream.
@@fredmerkel1447 Jett is obviously struggling with the new bike, he’s not where he was last year on pushing it or feeling comfortable pushing it. Give it time when he gets the bike sorted out
My comment is purely based on, enough is enough on the View type comments on a waist of time comparison of the 2 that doesn't even race each other at the moment... There's PLENTY on their Own plates to compete with now...
The Best of all Time actually.
And the New New Zealand kid is going to give ALL of the 250 guys nightmares along with JUJU
Zip it Deegan and ride for your life...
where did the full podcast go?
We need the Lawrence brother on the Pod
All I know a 450 is a different animal than a 250. On a 250 you’re a superstar but on a 450 you mid pack. Time will tell
That’s most guys, Haiden isn’t most guys. Now I’m not saying his rookie season he will come out winning and getting podiums, but after he sees the level during actual races, he will be up there, outdoors atleast. I do think sx will take him a little longer to get up there battling for wins and podiums, depending who is still in the class atleast. Outdoors he is gonna be a dog.
I think a 450 will help him a lot indoors bc it seems like he has to push super hard on a 250 which is weirdly counterintuitive
Have you not watched maiden race a 450 look it up he smoked everyone
Could you imagine if guys like Bubba, Ricky, Reed, Villopoto had trained together but stayed just as competitive? Or Pastrana and Deegan, if they had trained together(even just from time to time) to learn from one another and improve on individual weaknesses but stayed just as hungry? "But it wouldn't be as competitive then", bullshit! We could see the best possible version of every rider if we cut the bullshit drama and theatrics and make it about the riders and their progression. I love seeing Haiden hungry and competitive, I also love seeing him acknowledge when he's wrong, and when the better racer won that night. You can't tell me that he has nothing to learn from Lawrence or that Lawrence has nothing to learn from him either. Personally, I'd love more than anything to hear news of riders training with other riders outside of their teams regularly, I think it would make a much more exciting evening of racing each and every week through the seasons.
I don’t think that’s always healthy for riders.
Plus, teams got lots of secrets on those bikes, you can’t be showing that to other teams! Everything is an edge.
No, the isolation made it infinitely better. The buddy buddy stuff is lame asf, it’s hard to be willing to take someone’s head off if you see his wife and kids every day. There’s a reason Eli is Eli lol
Don’t ever see Deegan anywhere near Jett’s level
Here is the issue that you all aren’t even seeing. Jett is fluid and his style of racing isn’t as taxing on the body. Deegan isn’t going to be able to ring that 450 out and ride it in the same manner. He’ll drop anchor at 20 min trying to ride that way. Jett uses a lot less energy than everyone else does and goes faster. You can’t beat that over a series.
Starting to remind me a lot of Villopoto, ringed the 250 but had a rocky start trying to ride the 450 the same way. Obviously for him it played out, it’ll be interesting to see how Deegan adapts. I also believe chase should be in this conversation more as well, just my opinion.
Cole and JuJu ride the way Jett does and it shows.
What you’re not realizing is he rides that 250 like he does because he wants to go faster than the bike will allow him. Once he gets on the 450 he will have more power than he needs and that’s when he will be able to focus on slowing down to go faster, especially in sx. His riding style doesn’t work as well for a lot of these sx tracks as well. He likes to just send it and over jump things and just keep his rpms up as high as they’ll go, that’s why he’s so damn fast outdoors but you can’t ride like that in sx but when that’s how you’ve always ridden and mostly you’ve raced outdoors your entire life, it’s hard to change that, especially when you have the ability to push a bike past its limits. Tomac use to ride a 250 the same way and look what he did when he moved to the 450. To think Haiden won’t have that same type of trajectory is just crazy. That’s not saying he will be as good as Tomac was in his prime, but he will be just fine on a 450.
Umm tomac does and has been doing it for 10 plus years
@ Trying to compare motormouth to Tomac is an insult. Deegan will never be close to what Tomac is.
There is no rivalry. When Jett was Haidens age he was already winning supercross/outdoors titles and moving onto 450s going undefeated in outdoors
Damn I didn’t know Jett was winning titles his first 2yrs indoors
For my life, I still do not understand the super hype on Jett and Hayden, and I wouldn't care who it was if they were being spoken of as these two have been for the last couple years. What I mean is - These two have been talked about like they are to be multi-time champions for years to come, no two ways about it, and they are basically at the beginning of their careers. People spoke of Deegan this way when he had barely begun winning, and I remember the "When is Jett going to eclipse McGrath's record" from quite a while ago. I just shake my head, I don't get it. And as we have seen how the beginning of this season has gone ...... And Jett may have a serious injury? Let them get 5 or 6 years down the road of mopping up the competition nearly every season, then begin to talk about these kinds of things.
Jett literally went undefeated his rookie 450 season and won a ton of titles in a row the past 3 or so years. Haiden has won 3 of the last 4 250 titles… I think they both have shown why they were talked about this way. As for the McGraths record thing, nobody else brought that up, JETT DID. He said his goal was to beat McGraths sx wins record and THEN people started bringing it up because HE did and when he brought it up, he had won a majority of the races in his rookie season with ease so it was quite evident why he would say it at that point and it was also just a long term goal of his. What’s wrong with him having that goal and telling everyone what that goal is? I swear some of yall are just dumb.
Deegan will turn into BAM BAM from our day.
Lets talk about Deegan vs Jett when he actually moves up and races a dam 450 !
Or let’s have fun and talk about it now and speculate. What’s wrong with that? It’s obvious they are going to be the two best guys and going to battle year after year for titles and they are two alpha generational talents, so why not start talking about what could be a little bit before it happens? What exactly is wrong with it?
Lawrence vs deegan?
They're not even in the same class!
????
Outdoors haiden will push jet to his limits, supercross jett will smoke haiden every day
Ehh Haiden will excel in sx when he gets on a 450 and he can actually “slow down to go faster” and learn a lot of the little things that help you win in sx. That 250 just doesn’t have enough power for him and so he has to al ways send it and you just can’t ride that way on most sx tracks but he won’t have to do that on the 450. Outdoors they will definitely have some great battles and be very close, but I kinda agree on the sx, from what we’ve seen but Haiden is also going to get better and he always figured out what he needs to do to win so I have all the faith in him to figure it out and be right there with him in sx as well.
I need to see a lot more out of Deegan before I will consider him being a real threat to Jett in the future.
Deegan is an incredible talent, I don't think anyone could argue otherwise. I cant seem to take to him but because of his disrespect he has to the other riders. Anyone he see's as a threat he tries to start a off track rivalry with just to get inside their head. I know his dad Brian is behind it but its still a bad look.
How is it a bad look? Everyone knows it’s good for the sport. It brings in views and gets people more interested and gets them talking and that’s what you need to grow the sport and the more people talking, that means more watching and more watching means more money and more money and people watching means more sponsors wanting to get in on it. The Deegans are marketing geniuses and know what they are doing and all of the other riders know it and don’t care. If the other guys were smart, they’d get in on it and get their piece of the pie when he offers it to them. Also, most every guy out there acts just like deega off the track. They are always talking sht to eachother and typically it’s all in good fun but that’s just how guys in this sport work. Unfortunately, not many are like deegan infront of the camera and won’t show their real colors and put in a fake nice guy humble kid persona.
Do you know how other sports work? Jalen Ramsey used to look up the receiver he would be covering, find his gf and start dm-ing them weeks before they even played lol
With Davies officially on the scene , the future is gonna be epic .
How about we see if Deegan can win a title in a very soft field this year before comparing him to Jett.
When deegs goes 450 there's a whole gang of beasts he has to deal with, wether it's Jett or his brother, or Cooper, Chase, Jason, Ken, Aaron, etc. it's stacked.
LOL @ Plessinger
Deegan ain't the dude, flash in the pan. Social media is the only reason he's anywhere. Speed runs amuck in the incoming class. We have 10-15 yrs of incredible competition
I mean Deegan absolutely elevated the game, but guys like Davies are Beaumer leveled up so yea we could be racing with 3-5 legitimate contenders for the foreseeable future.
🎯
Dumbest comment on this entire video. Deegans specialty is outdoors and smx where he can use his speed and send it mentality. SX takes a different level of skill and speed isn’t really one of them and with his size it’s more difficult for him to just smoke everyone like he does outdoors. Every top guys, hell even the privateers, know the fastest way around the track and the top guys all hit the same big lines and run within tenths of eachother lap after lap. It takes good starts, consistency, lack of little mistakes, and many other little variables to be at the top in sx and the way he rides, sx doesn’t fit his style but I think on a 450 when he has more power than he needs, unlike the 250, and actually focuses more on the little things and can control the throttle and traction in corners and whatnot better, he is going to make a huge jump in sx skill. But outdoors and smx, he is going to be a top 3 guy week after week.
Kenny came back to show these young bucks how it’s done
Dudes aren't even in the same class yet why are we talking about them like this? We'll cross that bridge when it gets here just seems like unnecessary drama.
Because Haiden knows Jett is the guy and he wants to let him know he’s coming. Haiden is the one who brought up Jett at the beginning of the season, that’s why it’s being talked about. It’s also bc we can all clearly see they are the two best riders in their classes and Haiden is another generational type rider so it’s only common sense they’ll have some epic battles and a wicked rivalry when they meet. Nothing wrong with talking about the future. Not sure why yall get so butthurt about things like this. It’s not like they don’t talk about who they are currently racing against, but it’s fun to talk and speculate about what the future can bring between two alphas.
Whose here after hearing Jett tore his acl. 😮 Eli’s year
Im an Aussie and appreciate all the the riders' dont give a shit where there from
..just let me tell you 2 words.....Cole Davies.........
It’s one thing to hang it out on a 250…the 450 demands respect. Even RC learned that the hard way.
I believe we will be watching a showdown between Jett and deegan like we watched showtime and the goat. Jett rides like Mc grath and deegs rides like Ricky and I can’t wait.
Col, Jules, Jorge, Kay, Jett... all faster & more technical than Deegan!
Deegan has very little chance of being a 450 SMX champion while Jett, Chase, and Prado (outdoors) are still racing. They will be at their peak while he is trying to adapt to racing a 450. His style is also much more wild and will most likely result in frequent injuries for his first few years. He's gonna have to get in line and accept his thirds and fourths for many years before he breaks through.
Good think ET/RV/RC always rode a gear high and fairy bounced their way around the track
We are so blessed right now with the caliper of racing we are witnessing now in both the 250 and 450. Respect is everything in racing. The speeds they are going now. I don't believe any of them will deliberately take big chances that by taking one out can be bad in a way that they didn't entended to be. But racing is racing and there will always be bar banging and break checking . There is 6 to 7 guys in both classes that with a good start a some luck can win. 1st race Web was unbeatable. 2nd race Kick start Kenny unbeatable and same with Eli.
Front break caliBer
What heck, there is going to be a dog fight in the 450’s Jett, Chase, Hunter, Haiden, juju, Shimoda and Cole Davies. I think Haiden will give Jett more outdoors than in. AND at this point Jett may be injury prone and not reach his full potential…..
Wonder how this torn ACL is going to fair for Jett
Alot of what ifs in this convo
Bro Davies going to clean house on everyone. NZ boy
Would be cool but at moment sounds stupid right (well extra)
he will get there, hits his marks doesn't make many mistakes not over riding the track and riding with the team during the week is only lifting his game. The faster the people you practice with the faster you will get
Deegan not in the same league yet!! However he is winning the mental game already which is 50% of the race
....and then, there is the young Kiwi coming up offering another ingredient into the rumble.
Being fair Brian and Travis had really long careers in racing moto
Sexton is JMB of the media Bradshaw/Staunton rivalry days! He just beat both of them but all they talked about was those two!
Deegan looks like he has his hands full with Davies and juju. To be honest both look smoother and get better starts. Juju also has been throwing down faster lap times than deegan.
What rivalry? They aren't even on the same level yet.
I remember deegan tucking in and waiting for jett in outdoor practice and Jett wanted none of the smoke with the 250 rider lol no part in it, lol Jett backed off and just started cruising and u can tell deegan was like nah forget it lol and waited till he went around him as if he was just letting him by.....
Jace… love you dude.. but really not getting the Deegan Hype. His literally not proven in SX. He has no SX title. It’s disrespectful to JuJu and Davies.
Sophomore seasons can be a bitch!!
Deegans acrobatics 🎉
In sports like in everydays life, the entourage (especially your parents) will either make your life better or worse depending on their real nature. You have to be either lucky and enjoy your life around them or be strong enough to let them go if they are toxic.
Regardless of style, brand or influences, the big difference between Deegan and Lawrence is size. Biggers riders (JL) break easier-- especially knees. Rickys crash at Washougal in 2006 would have ruined Pastrana, Plessinger, etc. Carmichael just rolled with it, got up and kept going. I think that Deegan will have the longer career...
I like the idea of the rivalry. However, it can't be a true rivalry until they are racing against one another. Until this its two kids running their mouths at each other. So far, Deegan hasn't even won a supercross championship in the 250 class. When he pulls this off and moves up to the 450 class and shows that he can compete, then we'll chat. If Deegan moved up to 450s right now, he'd be lucky to finish top 5 and it would be a battle to maintain top 10. He just hasn't shown me that raw speed yet. Do I think he can get there? Absolutely! And I hope he does.
JETT now needs a year to recover injury .
Will be interesting in few years
YOU CANT FORGET ABOUT CHASE
this guy loves deegan ..
I don’t think either of you have picked up on the wave next gen level riders on the near horizon.
Technology and understanding of MX by the upcoming riders, will make Jett and Haiden ride in more of a defensive than offensive mode.
Just let them race in off season
Yeah not that im a Sexton fan but it is weird that hes being ignored here? He Is exchanging titles with him in real time and similar age etc?? And theyre drumming up a rivalry with Deegan who is still in the 250s?
Everybody hates the people who have money and don’t need to be bought unfortunately, most riders don’t have any control of what they do in their career the Deegans do so they will progress farther They are commodity that everybody has to buy. They don’t need anybody’s money to be rich.
Maverick vs Iceman
Who swaps victories for ten years. Ward vs Johnson was epic and was for about five years. Smith vs Hannah was about the same.
Thorpe vs Malherbe was about two years and then Geboers vs Thorpe in 1988-90.
There has never been a rivalry of two riders swapping victories for ten years.
Look at AC the 250 superstar did nothing on a 450 ok he had some bad luck with injuries but he wasn’t good enough
Travis pastrana was full on freak of nature and set the fmx standard. Deegan was a scrub 😂
A war would destroy deegan cuz his whole thing crumbles once he cant win. If jett whoops his ass every race then deegan is just talk…
I feel like Jett is a future great but lacks respect from some guys because he kinda just showed up a few years ago raced lights and won then rode the big bike outdoors and won so they threw him on a 450 and everyone thinks he’s the best of all time right away. But that’s just how I see it from the other riders perspective
I wanna see Deagan on a Triumph or Ducati and make fireworks
Alessi will take them all!!
Jett is a flash in the pan. He will not have the longevity. The disrespect to Chase Sexton is unbelievable.
I can’t wait to see forkner, Hampshire, shimoda, smith, juju. All them get to 450s let’s go. Just love up
Forkner will cripple himself before he makes it and Smith& Hampshire will retire a 250 rider
Is there really that much of an issue and rivalry between the two of them or is it media making it out to be more than there really is??
Jett will probably get better starts but if deegan gets a good start and is there,it's jetts worse nightmare lol imo, because, deegan is Anderson, Brian, and a whole bunch of others wrapped in one, so that aggressive, block pass racing will be very interesting to watch imo..
it's going to be almost the same as rc and js rivals but years later jett's like rc and deegan is like js with hang it out to win going to be one BA racing
Haiden isnt even leading his regional sx series which has basically no one in it, hes not on jets level. Haiden is getting beat by juju and his rookie teammate davies, 2 guys no one ever heard of b4 last year. Lets see haiden win one sx championship first. He got beat by tom vialle last year too who had never raced sx. Jett was smoking ppl in the 250 class and winning every championship.
Deegan and Reed have something in common. Deegan won't win a premiere championship unless the top guys are out with injuries
What rivalry? Deegan is struggling to beat a kid fresh out of amateurs let alone one of the best pro riders we’ve ever seen lmfao
Jett will will start going backwards
Rickey , why do you have to respect him?
The Gloat
Cole David vs kitchen vs healthy shimoda vs juju who wins on outdoors?
Idk. I'm watching racing again because of Degan. But he looks sooooo slow this year. He is NOWHERE dominate. And I'm a fan of him.
Haiden isn’t a world beater on a conventional SX track…outdoors..? Probably challenge Jett…in doors…ain’t even close
I think other riders will be more of a problem then haiden atleast anytime soon. He hasn’t raced a 450 yet hard to say what’s going to happen yet.
Is there really that much of an issue between the two of them or is it media making it out to be more than there really is??
I Respect the heck out of you guys but Hayden shouldnt be compared to Jett nor any of the 450guys. The kid needs to make his way to the class first.
I was there and line choice was key. Hayden bike in two places on fhe track when taking one of his two lines. You can see the bike loose forward drive for a split second. It was that way for just about everyone. Eli line xhoice in the sand section was second to none. Also the the 2nd coner after that area. When he vot away from the inside line. Went on the ohtside for only about a 1/3 of that corner and pointed the bike tords the middle and could keep his momentum staying in the middle in our letting it continue to the outer side. That was so sick to see him figure that out.
Have they forgotten that there are another 5 to 10 riders capable of being the next champs. Hayden has essentially not achieved that much to put him in the same category as Jet and other current top riders. I’d be way more afraid of Davies and JuJu, both are on another level and so young, and then you got the current 30+ guys who will be riding for a few years still and other youngsters yet to enter into the top level.
Hate this speculative shit, it’s disrespectful to a lot of riders out there, just got to say it. For all we know Eli may have another season as well.
Haiden hasn't even raced 450 class. Half the field will beat him if he moves up. He also has to have no injuries.
Hopefully Jett's OK and is back racing this weekend. Avagud1
Jett is on a completely different level than Deggan…. Stop it
Deegan can’t even beat a rookie and juju that’s on his second year lol
Why even talk about it? They haven’t raced each other yet
Don’t compare Jett to TP.. never will be that guy. Two different riders.
All of the True Champions win with talent, they don't need to take out their opponents front wheel. Deegan is a spoiled brat who'll be immediately exposed by the top riders.
Ima go with Danger. He’s putting in the work so can all the social bs punk
Today is 02/07/25.
Deegan isn’t even there (riding 450’s) yet so its premature to speculate.
What I hope is, IF Deegan moves up - it (racing J Lawrence) DOES NOT turn into dirty racing like it was w/Stewart and Reed.
Reed is THE dirtiest super/motocross racer I have ever seen (I was born in 1966 so I’ve seen a few races/racers).
He NEVER raced Stewart to beat him, he raced Stewart to make him crash (DNF).
Time will tell.
Why is a mouthy kid in the boys class even being linked to Jett? May be in 2 or 3 years, just maybe.
Title says the GOAT, I don't see Eli Tomac anywhere.?.? 😂
Hayden has been riding like shit when it comes down to it for mains. Good qualifier and heat race rider. But rides past his limits and can’t even keep up with his younger rookie teammate. Makes more mistakes than anyone on the track every race. I dont see a competitive rivalry, just a one sided jealousy by deegan.
Deegan is another Bubba. And it shows already when he’s not winning he’s on the ground and on the edge . And his cocky attitude will come back to bite him hard one day. I get he’s a product of his Old man but being cocky has never been someone who is a legend in this sport I know that for sure
The Jett Lawrence overhype will now cool off till next season. Can’t watch a race without them slobbering all over jet lawrence.
