I wouldn't be crowning Zacho just yet. Marv is certainly looking pretty racey to me. 19 pts back. Just don't know if he 100% back from the injury. Full strength Marv vs Zach I pick Marv
I'd go with Zach..... Marv is too nice, and gets pushed around way too easily. Zach will move anybody out of his way towards the gold, been proven. Ask Joey.......

Only one of those riders have proved they can knuckle down and win a national championship already...
And only one of those riders has 2 world championships.

I would go with Zach all day over MM25 at this point in time.

If Eli can come back from this he truly will be known as one of the greatest ever in MX.

I think Eli will catch fire as soon as the series goes to more “traditional” national tracks
But it’s certainly great to see Zach having the success he is.
Based on his interviews he clearly has his head screwed on.
I am a fan

I wonder if Roczen is kicking himself? He probably figured Tomac was going to steam roll like usual.

If Roczen was in shape I think he very well could of been 2-0 right now.

Good to see old man Zacho teaching these young bucks a thing or two.

Appreciate the hell out of Zach. Dudes never given up and has seen the fruits of his hard work. I’m a fan. Hope he wins the ship.

Fair enough. At this point in their careers though, I favor Zach.

Both guys are 30 years old with Zach being 3 months older.

I would say they're exactly at the same point in their careers.

There's no denying they're both great riders.

My comment was based off attitude, not age. There were rumors of Marvin retiring after his brother and Brian Moreau had life changing injuries, and Zach has the attitude that the difference between 1st and 2nd is thousands of dollars and potentially the difference between a fat championship check and a 2nd place check. In a situation where everything is on the line and you have to hang it out, Zach beats Marvin.

You all saw the randomness of events yesterday. The Husky suddenly wouldn't start. Tomac's bike broke twice. Barcia broke down in the second moto.
I remember Dungy's bike not starting on the line or running out of gas on the last lap. McGrath's handle bar mounts breaking off. Langston back wheel coming apart on the last lap. Villipoto getting punted in to the scaffolding on the last lap by Canard or crashing and breaking his leg.
Weather, a first turn pile up or any number of things can happen. Nobody has it won until the end. I wish them all the best of luck.

Tomacs results wasn't because he rode bad. Just a combination of his style in the mud and the fragile Kawasaki.

But i guess this is yet another case of everything is possible in racing!

2 mud races at the same track, I'll wait until 2 more rounds pass before declaring Zach unbeatable. He's got a damn good shot, but I'm hoping Musquin catches fire.

Zach looked amazing. Solid as a rock. Holeshots help a lot though.
