Doesn’t seem like he’s upset at all. He gave Jett plenty of praise. Just simply saying there’s other riders that deserve praise as well..

Something tells me that ken is starting to realize that dropping down into obscurity to participate in WSX didn’t do anything for him. I mean with three months between rounds how are you supposed to maintain relevance… oh i know attack Jett and the media, that will fix everything!!!

Ken's a good looking dude. That's probably attracting to Jett.

If some of you guys truly don't understand what Ken means, you must be a Lawrence fanboy and no one can help you see the truth.

I can understand why Roczen is upset: he's undefeated too, winning all the 2023 WSX races till now, and no one is talking about it.

Too much exposure sure but's how the sports always been, Ken got similar treatment when he was the hottest new thing too, it's just another cycle.

But seriously if next year they bring out the same back story segments they're taking the piss.

They are blowing his skill set way out of proportion. He’s not reinventing the wheel. However that’s what happens when you win every f’n thing in sight at the time.

Not even close to the same treatment. They have NEVER panned to Roczen putting on goggles at his semi 60 times or just sitting there breathing, while watching the 250 qualifying doing absolutely nothing like they do with Jett every weekend. Its beyond annoying. This kid is nothing special or new. There's been 10 guys ahead of him in history that have better style and speed. He's just the youngest and healthiest RIGHT NOW. Everyone else is riding while healing. Do I need to bring up the 5 guys that got hurt in supercross again..

I guess Ken feels the same way I did last winter when every week we had a new episode of the Roczen saga... What's he gonna do? What bike will he be riding? 

"Whatever! Enough!! I don't give a f***!!!"

At least, Jett is actually doing something more outstanding than choosing a bike...

Kenny needs to go undefeated in an Outdoor season before he even slightly mentions Jett's name in the media... And I am a huge Kenny fan. Jett deserves all the praise for doing what he's done this whole year at his age.

Can you imagine all the adversity we are going to have to hear about from everyone, the moment that guy finishes 4th in a heat race.

"The kid is nothing special or new." Okaaaay. The 19yr old with a perfect season? Yeah, yeah, the field is depleted. He's still giving the Sexton the business. You know the guy who gave Tomac everything he could handle last summer?Sexton straight up smoked Tomac at Unadilla last year and I saw Jett put 10 seconds on him. The next 10 year and the Jett show are going to be rough on you

I know Sexton, Ferrandis, Ciancarulo, Anderson, Roczen, Barcia, etc can't be considered 100% due to health issues, bike issues or limited time (severely for Roczen and Barcia) racing outdoors this year.

I appreciate we are missing a few fast dudes completely as well, but I don't think it makes Jett's season much less impressive given his age and first 450 season.

If people see it differently, that's fair enough, but I don't see why people would be sooo hyped to find excuses why Jett isn't doing an outstanding job this year.

Bingo. Jett is insane, it's just going to take some people(the ones who don't get how crazy good he is) a few years to realize how rare he is. Damon Bradshaw came in hot as a youngster but was a crasher, Stewart was a crasher, RC even hit the deck...as of right now, Jett seems to be able to create winning speed without the risk...so far...

be interesting to see how Et3 changes the pace...I think he can change the dynamic, just a little though...
