Wonder how much start $$$ they are paying him to make WSX his debut 450 ride rather than SX?

Kenny and Eli were getting paid big bucks to just show up, Deegan has to be in the same league at least as far as hype being his 450 debut?

I don't expect Deegan to beat either of them, but a bet a whole lot more people will subscribe and watch now just to see how it goes.

Yes, 100%.  This is a big FU to Feld and MX Sports.  Love it.

Shot sent by the WSX/FIM, not necessarily Deegan……

I can’t wait to see the first rage post from some grump after the first race.


Deegan is going to be battling the guys up front that’s for sure, but I think he will want to learn a thing or two from Kenny, Tomac, JA, and JCoop

Not a fan, but I hope Deegan doesn’t mangle himself trying to make a big first impression. We need him lining up in January.

Why all the downvotes? Its accurate. This isnt mx. Even SMX isnt real sx. Yeah its fresh in our minds seeing Deegan dominate all summer. Sx Deegan is a lot different than mx Deegan

Chris, I think Deegan is literally tied with Jett with 7 SX wins and 1 title after three years. I think it’s fair to anticipate him to be good. 

Pretty crazy to think that Stew had 18 in 3 years. What a nutjob

That post  did have a bit of an "I'm taking my talents to Miami" vibe to it...

Haiden is a phenomenal rider, I absolutely love to watch him.  He is not lining up for 2nd, that's what I like about him most!

Is everyone just planning to stream this on the Recast platform or is there another way to watch?

A shot at AMA SX would be having a WSX the same date as A1 and seeing who they can get to show up there over A1. An off season race with less than half the regular 450 SX class is hardly a “shot” at the American SX series.

If anything, WSX backed up the money dump truck to stick it in Feld/MX Sports' eye, but it sure as hell isn't Deegan taking a shot at the two series he makes the majority of his money from. Even he's not that dumb.

In my post im not really talking about deegan.. but more or so the announcement. I mean for fimsx its an insanely smart move on the social media front and the media machine and viewership deegs family brings along with them. Probably more than kenny and eli combined (on social media only, not really talking core fans)

Personally, I'd love to see him eat some humble pie, but realistically the dude could end up winning. Either way, I'm definitely going to be watching.

So what does he have to get in order to jump into 450 sx full time in 26? Win? Podium? Not a chance?

HD has never been a crasher not sure why this is being talked about. It’s almost like you two are trying to manifest him getting hurt, scum of the earth activities.
