Do you think McGregor helped grow and promote the sport of mma/ufc?

Never understood why people are hung up on “growing the sport”. Moto is fine and hell could use a step back to the roots where it started. Every sport that grew got ruined in my eyes. One example NFL is a joke compared to yesteryears.
If you don't grow, then you stagnate and eventually shrink to extinction.

I'f we're making sports comparison, the most accurate would be golf. They have the same problem as Moto (pre-corona) in that the sport has an aging demographic. If we cannot continue to attract youth to the sport, we won't have a televised professional race series', our "sport" will be reduced to a hobby.

If the Lawrence brothers attract any youth participation to Moto, then it's a good thing.

Super cool of them to do that. Even if hardcore moto fans like us can’t make it maybe normal kids who happen to be at the mall will see how cool dirtbikes are for the first time and want to get into riding.
Do you realize the press conference is about 40 miles south west of the biggest motocross mecca… probably in the world? Hard-core motocross fans like you might not be able to “make it” but trust me there are quite a few other hard-core motocross fans that don’t live in your area

Somewhat related, I was watching the local Los Angeles news on channel 11 this morning, and they surprised me by starting a segment that began "Supercross is back on Saturday in Anaheim", and then did a live shot from the stadium, showing the tractors moving dirt.

Edit: looks like they did multiple hits. They posted a video that's different than the one I watched:

When industry people say they want to grow the sport they’re really just talking about growing their wallet.

Not saying that’s a bad thing but it is kinda deceptive

Did a quick drive by while going to the store. They’re definitely moving some dirt. They had a big double set up between the studios.

Although there is some truth here how can you blame them? They are not allowed any integration with Supercross at all... not even in the pits.. anywhere, the only way for them to expand is selflessly through focused marketing like they are with Jett & Hunter,

I like that they are actually trying things, what sucks thought is that SX will either stop them in some petty communist way or steal the better ideas straight from them.

I think this is a rumour coz hunters name got put onto the Anaheim entry list.
I seen a couple insta stories of Jett today and he is walking around and looks fine. There was even 1 where Lucas mirtl tries to hit jett in the nuts and he blocks it. So that should mean he doesn't have a injured wrist,hand or finger.

oh thats good.... I was just listening to the latest Mainevent Moto pod on patreon from today and Daniel Blair said a big dog is out for A1, and if he said who he wouldn't be allowed to go to the Lawrence press conference hah.... Could also be because Jcoop is out with a broken foot and now star need an A rider on each coast, so colt or CC tmight change coasts also?

I know I’m in the minority here, but this feels like some Connor McGregor UFC hype train garbage.

Just a bit pretentious if you ask me.
Not minority…just stupid. And it’s not going to serve your life moving forward. But my words won’t help your pitiful cause…

So even on a paid podcast now he still says "things" and then won't finish it like always. Good thing I didn't pay for that. DB could be so good if he didn't try to play the political card and hide half the shit he brings up....or just stop teasing it.

Good on the boys. About time someone really had a good crack at getting eyes from outside the sport.
If feld would just loosen up on their restrictions and let teams/privateers sell merch, show off sponsors products and film all the content they like this sport could be twice as big and fields pocket would be bigger for it but they can’t see past the end of their nose (or the cheque they get from toyota/gopro etc etc)

You know the Jett is officially out when he is not listed on pulpmx fantasy. No pressure for Hunter Wink .
