To do what Jett is doing is among the greats of any sport. It’s almost unheard of. The dudes a kid still. What you are seeing is what we call SPECIAL.
RC and stewart did the same thing
@@jamespatterson2002 exactly! They are among the best to ever live.
Austin is a seriously respectful guy, considering the fact that Jett is the one who broke his collarbone in 2022 and he’s giving him a good reputation like this is highly commendable
If a person can’t look at excellence and appreciate it then that person is just hating to hate. I’m not on the lawernce brothers wagon although there is no denying how other worldly Jett is.
They were in the 250s when I actually was able to start watching the sport for myself and not just catching the rare race on cable that I didn’t have growing up where stew was my favorite being from fl. But I’m all about these brothers, that’s what it’s all about as a dad with boys who are close I can only hope they find something that drives them to achieve their greatness.
People like Jett, McGrath, Stewart, Carmichael, and Tomac are supercross/motocross. They provide amazement and entertainment. If you can't appreciate people like them, why watch the sport.
stewart recibe a lot off buuussss and racial issues ......... he is strong metal y fiscal nothing hopen hes the fastest raider ever
@cocopirata763 Learn to spell.
@@cocopirata763 Not sure what I just read, homie.
They all had times when they were hated, except maybe Tomac, but most the greats have times where they are hated. It'll pass.
JMB tho.....they booed out of the stadium😂
I'm just glad to see Austin is doing better and seeing how big of a fan plus racer that he is , I wish him all the best !
Good point. Look at Hunter. He went through it struggled and we saw it for years so when he broke out people loved him. Of the 2 brothers I think people relate to Hunter more and it shows.
Hunter has a great personality and perspective on the whole deal
Jett will always get this … what ever you think of him you have to give the guy props , he’s one of the greats
Jett is one of those people that have a talent that most cant even comprehend. Hell I'm 45 and yes I watched MX since the early 2000's and was a Mcgrath fan, and a Reed fan, Jett came in and completely changed everything
I'm a big fan of Jett. He's amazing on the bike and the Lawrences have paid their dues. Tight family and a great team!
Hating something because it's such a rarity is whack. The rarity is what makes it most special. How can anyone not appreciate a one in eight billion talent?
look at how many people hate Elon Musk for the same thing
AF has good point of view and speaks his heart.
Hahaha if they think Lawrence have had it easy, they dont have a clue...😮
@@user-kt6kn8ks8q I think that’s the point. Most people don’t have a clue they just see he showed up and won everything.
Believe me he's privileged, don't caught up in the Lawrence's sob story.
@@LarryLintonYour another that has no clue.
@@LarryLinton they raced out the back of a van here in Oz , I seen it first hand , only there Talent when Hunter got the Yamaha Junior ride and Jett got the Junior KTM ride did they get any assistance
@@LarryLintonno fucking clue I raced him myself on 85s ya fucking gronk
Hey Austin !!! He's better than good, Jett is already one of the All Time Greats at 20 years old
It's Jets time. He's going down in the books with all the greats. Born haters don't change anything. Now it's his time in history to be the greatest.
Losers will hate on winners, it's a human thing, personally I love rooting for the underdog, I stood on the top step of the podium enough times to appreciate seeing greatness
It's amazing how many racers have that kind of ability but for other circumstances of mere inches have crashes that sideline them. Love your take on Jett, Austin! Looking forward to seeing you back on the bike!
Let's just call it jealousy.
I think you mean envy man
For me it's his attitude. I was all for him until he showed what he is as a person. He might improve though. As a rider of course he's bad to the bone. No question about that.
Is it though? I know for me it's just his attitude! He looks as though he kicks puppies and old people when the lens ain't on him! Maybe it's the fact that his idea of paying back the fans that spend hundreds of dollars to come see him by charging 20 bucks for 4 doughnuts? Maybe it's because he feels you'd not allowed to compete against him, you know like with Anderson?
@@sissywalker1955 this is why you dont do drugs kids
Respect this guy. All the best.
Forkner is one of coolest Pro riders out there 💪🏻
Jett is the man right now and will continue to be the man, had he not injured his thumb the title would of went down to him and Sexton and i think Hunter is great too but hes a year behind Jett joing the 450 class so im definently excited to see what 2025 holds 4 "HUNTA"!!!! #GypsyGang
will never relate to hating on someone because they are really good at something
I couldn’t stand Tom Brady until he joined the Bucs then I was like dang alright I get it now.
Look at anyone who dominates a sport for a period of time. Mahomes' Chiefs, Bradys' Pats, 90's-00's yankees, Steph and the warriors, etc. They hate them because they win and win efficiently. Its almost automatic to a point. Not a Jett fan in the slightest but i can recognize the kid is generational and already one of the all time greats. He and Deegan are what the sport needs most. They don't act like robots in their interviews and i do like that. Brings personality to the sport that the sport is dying for.
Jetson is the smoothest rider I've seen for how fast that guy is Ricky and bubba are so fast but they dont look as smooth ,it would be sweet to see those 3 race
well no shit. those 450s were no where near as refined as they are today
Austin speaks you need to listen, some riders have a gift and are just pure in the race craft. love how he sees how awesome jett is. but Austin was insanly good when he was in his zone. So wish he gets back and gets on a 450, i think he will be better with his mind and gift on the 450....
Like I would like to Like Like listen to him but he Like says like a like lot and it's like kinda... Like annoying to like listen to
@@kenraterink adhd combined with being around west coast people, it just replaces um/uh
cant wait to see forkner back
The RedBud 450 race sucked without Jett. I fell asleep the second moto. The 250 race was better.
Me too. Out cold on my couch.
It's just a lack of competition, rhe more competition the better, jett hunta and chase have been leagues ahead of everyone this year, its honestly wild how much faster those 3 have been then the rest
I don't think chase is going to get sick of being handed championships
"You have to respect him" yet, he was all in on instagram comments telling everyone Jett cried and apologized to him after they colided. That was the moment I lost all respect to you, and some of that Jace did too.
Yeah I was about to write the same thing. He seems like he’s changed his tune since he got called out.
bandwagon bs
everyone was in that Anderson comment section
then he goes and wins the supercross title
and people switch up
until something else happens where they can pounce
@@pixelfodder also notice how most of the haters are from Cali, including some media teams. Wait for Deegan to get to 450, he will bring all the hate and all the drama, but I have a feeling his success will come to an end when he gets there.
Anybody who has ever ridden a bike on a Pro level track, not a Pro or a want to be Pro B,C rider. has to respect Jett. Riding on a track like Budds, High Point or the Wick is hard as He**. Just riding on one of those tracks is hard, riding at his level is impressive. not many can do it. I will never understand the hate. To finish top 20 at their level, you are the man.
Some people search their whole life for something they are good at. Jett found something he is the best at, and to hate on that is a shame. Even though he is the guy he puts everyone ahead of himself and makes sure they have everything they need to succeed. His brothers, his parents and even his team. That's what makes him great. Truly living the American Dream.
Tbh I think Hunter is more likable idk hunter just knows what to say ..but only 1 guy can win ..LFG CS4 🚀
Stoked for chase being handed another championship
100%…I’ll never take away that Jett can ride a bike, but I can’t stand his arrogance…the race when he waved the camera out of his face.if it wasn’t for those people watching you,you wouldn’t be making any money doing it for a living…hunter seems humble.
@@Hammie-the-barber he just reshared a video saying chase is a deadbeat not a real champion & he’s the goat it’s on cooksey page
@@gawdszn302 I just seen that.what a real piece of crap.makes me not like him even more.how does anyone like that little prick
If you have haters YOU'RE DOING IT RIGHT!!!!! MC/JM2, RC4, JS7, ET3, have all been hated by a bunch of fans while racing! Haters hate, because they wish they could be them. Easy as that! 🤘
Austin Needs to get on a 450! He is in a position that people will be happy just to see him get a top 5 or maybe even a podium. It will give him a several year grace period to reach his ceiling, which very well could be winning.
The media claiming him the Justin Bib of motocross was the real nail in coffin.
I’m caught off guard by Austin.
Since when has he been so animated?
I personally have never witnessed Jett hate. I only see praise. Crazy he got a boo.
Forkner is as cool and smart as he is unlucky.
As in every aspect of life. The gods only smile on you so long. Hope his struggles happen on the track and the rest of his life is blessed. Thanks to Jett for making it happen. Let's see if he has the durability to push through like a Tiger Woods.
I think what sucked about Jett’s 2023 perfect season the most is that we just had that Eli - Chase slugfest in 2022, probably the best season of racing we’ve had in the last 15-20 years. And then Eli tears his Achilles in SX, Chase gets hurt after rd 1 and a bunch of other factory riders go out with injury. It felt like we got robbed of what we thought would be a 3-rider battle for the championship in 2023 and Jett just swept the floor and ran away with the perfect season on easy mode. It wasn’t supposed to be like that.
Jett had his troubles over seas in the EMX CLASS lol but even back then watching him I said yikes this kid is crazy good and hope it keeps going! You gotta give him credit where credit is due he’s a freak of nature and if you can’t see that. Your prolly not as familiar with moto or your not paying attention enough lol it is a lot of lil things ppl miss unless they do slow mo but even still kids a freak of nature and don’t deserve to be booed honestly lol I know it is what it is lol
I like how humble Austin is. He's such a good rider but he doesn’t really talk about how much championship material he is. Just needs to keep the rubber side down
Jett is the man right now and will continue to be the man, had he not injured his thumb the title would have gone down to him and Sexton and i think Hunter is great too but hes a year behind Jett joining the 450 class so im definently excited to see what 2025 holds 4 "HUNTA"!!!! #GypsyGang
Was at the OKC Supercross in 1990....They Booed JMB Louder than they cheered Guy Cooper during the rider intros😂😂😂
Jett is amazing. For years I watched one dude annihilate the rest of the field by 45 seconds, be it Carmichael, Bubba, or Villopoto.
Jettson, is what hardcore fans have been waiting for.
Personally, it's Deegan that rubs me wrong.... His shout out to Andrew Taint didn't earn him any respect from me.
Even though it was just the one time.
Yeah, it's called being the best, with natural talent. And unrelatable? WTF? I'm 68 and held a pro motocross license way back. But I have stayed in shape and ride a peddle assist, full suspension EMTB now, at ripping speeds. MTB trails being built, with major jumps, whoops, technical tight woods sections, climbs etc, are amazing. Watching and studying the numerous qualities that Jett has on his bike has made my riding better and better. If you ride any kind of two wheels, and you can't watch and learn from Jett... and are "jealous" of his success, you've got other problems, keeping you from your own, personal joy.
Would love too see Ricky Stenhouse or Jimmie Johnson on this podcast. They both got their start on Dirt Bikes before transitioning to other series eventually to Dirt Bikes.
I'd guess at least the top 10 450 riders are getting paid close to or over a million. You got Hunter and Chase in there too
I mean I’ve always acknowledged Jett was more than amazing… my annoyance came from the fact no one could challenge him last year and it made for boring racing in the 450 class. But I don’t HATE Jett bc of that I just hated the situation tbh
I think Jason and guys like him and bam are good for the sport.. I love conflict on the track.
I love Jett !! Good kid , kinda goofy , huge heart !!!
The people who hate Jett, are envious, and struggle with envy in most parts of their life
Hunter went through that struggle for Jett. And now Jett gets all the accolades.
The haters and booing comes from a small minority, bottom feeders who are jealous and have absolutely no idea how hard he and his family had to work and sacrifice to make it to this level. Most like and respect Jet. Jet is a good person and he does not give a hoot about the winging. Haters, ask yourself what you were doing at the same age of what Jet is, no doubt it’s not much.
im not saying i like jett , i prefer the way caroli was so humble but i could never hate on any person that risk there life each time they race , i broke my ankles 3 times 2 wrist 1 finger racing mx and only got to a ok level , i respect all on the grid , hate is unexceptable this is not football !!!
People hate him, because they are either not from Europe, Australia or most parts of the World. Seems in AMA racing, the fans love to dislike anyone who beats their home riders. You don't get that in Europe. Euros and I think Aussies don't hate on the best.
Jet is amazing. His bike skill is next level. Great sportsmanship. Love watching him ride. Fuck haters.
He’s cut his teeth in more ways than one, jealousy is a curse, just celebrate and respect a great champion
Plain and simple, hes an outsider dominating a sport that is run out if the USA, with USA biased media thats setting up the narrative that hes some young punk. Hes as humble as he needs to be. Hes super skilled. Hes young. I can see the American fans, famous for following winners blindly, being led away from their better instincts by a media that plays up any conflict that arises to the Nth degree. They want to rattle him and out him off his game. Its pretty easy to see, the tone of RC especially when discussing Jett is somewhere in between disinterested and dismissive of him. He seems more excited about Hunter. Something about Jett threatens RC. Maybe its the prospect of being pushed down the all time lists that hes on top of.😊😊
I don't think Ricky is worried about Jet beating his Win record if Jet were to pass him in Wins. But realistically it's going to be TOUGH for anyone to break that record, if ever.
Damn it....i like Forkner....im sorry i made a cheeky vid on him😁🤦♂️
This is why I never liked this guy even though I respected his speed 8 yrs ago... always talking crap and blaming everyone for something. Not all riders at the top have career ending or serious injuries to admire. Some guys have it and some don't. Austin just doesn't have the whole package. Don't blame Jett for pretty much staying healthy and not crashing at every race. Same with RC, RV, James, McGrath, Tomac.. You are going to have guys in every sport that just don't get hurt that much. Thats just the way it its.
Hahaha. People like hate like Forkner like way more like than like
Jett like.
what about Kenny? i know before on honda n such he was def making over a million a year prolly a lot from redbull, but with HEP is he not making that ammount anymore? id assume bc HEP is no where near HRC honda
WTF? Can't believe Austin just indirectly said that he believes Sexton has signed a deal for less than 1M per year 😳
Seems like Austin was saying Jason Anderson paid more than Sexton. I seriously doubt that. As a matter of fact even though I know nothing about salaries in moto I’d still bet that Sexton makes double what Anderson makes.
Haters.. build a little bridge and get over it. Go home and have mommy wipe the tears away.
Does any of the beef have anything to do with Tom.P doing the vids for the Lawrence boys now?????
Some would say “can’t relate to” other would just call that jealousy.
I have no issues with Jett. But the media and fans saying he’ll be the goat before he swung a leg over a 450 was annoying.
geez dudes talking over forkner
Austin 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🧠👍. Sorry I’m high
Dan smith in D37 won everything. I get
It’s a shame…but the “likes” *really* take away from A.F.’s message. It would serve him well to work on that. Just my opinion.
maybe if you're slow yeah, its not that big of a deal. Some people say okay every 3 words, some people say so, quit nitpicking and just watch the fucking video. You and 2 other people are the only ones that care.
@@brock83196831 Like…that’s your opinion…like…don’t tell me how to live my life, ok. Like, I’m an articulate professional, ok…like…communication and public speaking is my thing, ok. 🥴
Except all the struggles that family has been through including Jett’s crashes in the 250’s and struggling is WELL documented on tv so I just don’t get how people think he walked in dominating, ironically the old haters watched McGrath come in day one putting champions in the grave.
Us Australians would boo Santa Clause if he favored someone that went against our grain but that’s a tribal issue, whereas the American’s are booing Jett & Hunter because they are taking all their trophies, their money and screwing all their girlfriends..😂😂😂
Most of the “hate” is for his fans. Not Jett himself. His fans are obnoxious.
I’ve lost too many bands and athletes (as a fan) just listening to their political, spiritual, anything else BS. If I want to hear that stuff I’ll find a guru in that topic. When it comes to performance on a dirt bike I have nothing but respect for Jett, he’s amazing to watch. Big fan of his.
Jason would be a better rider with better results if he changed his attitude (problems with Stewart, Barcia then pretends it was them) if he didn't get bogged down trying to clean people out and just focus on winning
Ppl love u until u get good. Then when u get too good they want to see u fall. Its all part of it. Fuck the haters (this goes for everybody in general) we all go thru it at some point. Doesn't matter if its in sport, job ect. Rise above🔥💯
Nothing against this kid but he clearly vented when making that hypothetical scenario about someone scrubbing shit for 3 years, and the way he struggles to avoid calling Jett great, amazing or awesome, but instead choosing "good" it's called envy, but can also be called anger over losing hope, and having a shitty time coming to terms that with this guy on the picture his chances are now gone plain and simple. He had his time and didn't capitalized just like KR, and everyone else hating hard on the kid, it ain't his fault this dudes ain't at his level.
Jett became the Nickleback of Moto?
Funniest part of this clip is suggesting they’re drinking Coors in Milwaukee 😅
👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯
Most really good riders have problem with a certain percent of fans. Especially when you make it look easy. I sure it has not been that easy as Jett and other great riders through the years. Jett definitely has some real riding skills. But guys like Hannah, Johnson, Carmichael and Jett were not liked by all fans. Sometimes fans can really turn on them.
Deegan will be the one guy that won’t be awe stricken over Jett winning like the rest of these dudes are. It’s like Michael Jordan when Kobe Bryant came in to the league. Everyone feared Jordan except Kobe. Deegan will be the same thing. He won’t fear Jett and will actually race Jett aggressively. Wait and see how it goes when it gets here in a year or 2.
If I got $1 for every time Forkner says “like” during this interview, I’d have more more money than Jett 🤣
Dude doesn’t think RocZen makes over a million? 😂 Wasn’t forkner making fun of Jett for apologizing to him over a crash?
They are praising him. What are you talking about
Maybe he isnt hated and his media oversaturation is just annoying. "Hater" has just become something annoying people say back to the people the annoy.
Bucket of crabs analogy. Jett climbs to the top of the bucket and gets out by working his butt off and the people who won't work as hard or take the risks that he has taken reach up and try to drag him down to their level because of their own insecurity and lack of discipline etc. "Hurt" people hurt people. Get help so you don't continue to be a hurt person...then you'll be free from the garbage mentality that seeks to justify your own inadequacies by tearing others down.
No one like Max Verstappen for the same reason
I don’t understand the hate. On Jett or Deegan. But to be honest, idc to watch 450s “premier class”. All I wanna see is the 250s. So much more battles. We know Jett, Hunter, Chase is going to winning every race. It’s just not exciting as the 250s. To be clear, I still watch 450s, it is what it is
Jett is so good, he made Sexton quit Honda!
And Forkner you are good too, just not Jett good..
Honestly for myself personally (obviously the dude is super talented) I just can’t get on board with his personality. Idk why I can’t pull examples, honestly besides being cocky dude is pretty polished with media. I just can’t get on board with his personality and idk why. Tbh I feel like a lot of people can relate to that though. I feel like saying he’s un relatable simply because he’s talented is kinda of rash and not very logical. There are plenty of dudes who had dominating runs where pretty much everyone can find some way to root for the rider. Just my two cents but who knows
He can’t help been that good, his full process from amateur to where he is now.. Him and his family have sacrificed more than most motocross riders. Come from selling their house to pay for everything and moved to the other side of the world. Unlike some new rides coming though have had all the money thrown at them..Rich parents
Chatty fella
I think people don’t like him cause his style is boring. It’s crazy cause he’s fast but looks slow. Deegan has a wow moment at every race. It’s exciting, like when Chase came from the back and won. It was an action packed win.
Can't relate to you two either. Creepy.
Im eda jiffic!
Aussies giving it to the Seppo's. What's not to like?
He’s not American .. that’s where the hate comes from ..
