No. The fact you don’t like hime doesn’t make him most hated.

It sounds like he is being pretty truthful. Confident for sure. One thing though is, now he has set a big target on himself. He better be working hard, or else he will be dismounted from his high horse.

The greatest generation had manners and backed it up.

Class and manners cost nothing man.

ITT: A bunch of people who have never been the best at anything, let alone on a world-wide level, talking as if they know exactly how they would handle it.

Hilarious, comic gold.

I've seen JS, RC, AC, RV and I believe this guy tops them all, I guess it's progression but he really is something else.

Yeah I figured some had done that.

Why either or?
He can be the fastest and be cocky at the same time.
Which IMO he is both
But at one point someone deserves to be cocky I guess.

If I was the best in the world at anything I would probably make sure to let everyone know about it

Stewart use to say all the time that he was the FMOTP and all the nut huggers were always backing him up. This guy does it and now everyone bashes him.

I didn't like it when he said it and don't like it when Herlings said it. Wouldn't like it no matter who said it.

Agreed. He's the man and he knows it. He gives zero fucks what we think about "etiquette" or whatever.

Yep. He'd say it all the time and then DNF or DNS or just plain quit leaving everyone including his team scratching their heads. No shortage of people still backing him up every single time.

No one on Earth can blame him for feeling on top of the world and celebrating it! His incredible drive to win reminds of of the other greats who have come before himself. You may or may not like his cockiness, but Jesus give him a break! He just turned 24 and rides motocross for a living, is at the peak of human athletic performance, is on a factory 450, and is a millionaire.

In this world that seems to be condemning young men more and more, let's recognize his greatness and let him be his young fighter-pilot self. One who after working hard his whole life, with some tough injuries along the way, has won some great victories.

Just saw this on his Instagram. Is he being cocky or does he deserve the title, “Fastest Man on the planet.” ?

You have to realize how much he's had to hear about him vs tomac endlessly for the last year. I think he felt that he had already proved himself to be the fastest in the world and I agree with him. This weekend was just further confirmation. And then watch, next summer tomac will be dominating the outdoors again and the same idiots will get the debate started again. Unless tomac steps his game up big time, the debate is over. I think herlings is tired of pretending that it's not.

I'm definitely guilty of that. I voted no but I thought I was saying no to him being cocky. IMO he is the FMOTP and I don't think it's cocky for him to say it after the year he's had.

How many threads have there been about the boring post race interviews? And how Tomac or (Insert whatever rider name) has no personality whatsoever. Yeah Herlings sounds a bit like a jerk, but damn it sure as hell is entertaining!

He’s definitely the man. He’s just acting like a boy tho shouting to the world that he is.

That post could have been “what a year, 66 out of 72 wins, achieved more than I could have hoped for and hopefully next year we also add the MXdN at home”... and people still would have had said he is the man. But if you carry on like a dickhead you can’t be upset if people think you’re a dickhead.

Not that he gives a shit what me or anyone would think though, clearly.
That way he would sound like Dungey, who was constantly talked down by "MX fans" for being too bland.

Young man who is on top of the world right now. Who wouldn't be a little cocky in his position (other than aforementioned Ryan Dungey)?

Just the way he is at this place and time. It will probably change within a couple of years from now.

He doesn't need to say this by himself but its because he wants the credits he deserves, and many argueing about who is fastest at this time. BUT he also says FMOTP 2018 and it will start all over again next year.... read what you wanna read
