I nearly spit my beer out while driving down the road when I read this on my phone. 

"If Levi can get a lead on Deegs" is like asking if one of the Island Boys can beat up Sean Strickland. The odds are so infinitesimally small that the question itself is ludicrous.

So you are capable of being funny, you gotta make a better troll account.

Deegan winning the title is no guarantee and Kitchen would of had a title if not for the incident with wackers.

His best move would be to very exaggeratedly look over his shoulder behind him like Deegs did to Joey in WSX. He would have to really sell it, but it would start fireworks that would last all season and be about the funniest thing we could see. I'm not pro or anti Deegs.

Pourcel once did with Barcia, but at the moment nobody comes close to to guys from the generation: Pourcel, Stroup, Wilson, Barcia...

I bet Deegan has been putting in a TON of hours on the SX track during the off season and is going to be extremely ready for SX at A1.

I am sure Deegan will do ok but would I be upset if Levi beats him?... no 


Deegan loves his social media battles, the latest one with De Wolf (not sure of his name spelling) is interesting

the cringe lord has been losing momentum.... he got powned in Superstupidcross by the demure Shimoda... then didn't even podium his last race in WSX... he got a lot of wins in the 250 outdoors because of lackluster competition, that' will not be the case in the 450s... and if he loses in 250sx this year.... that will not be a good look going into the 450s full time.. 

 

Extra POINTS for 'demure.'

DeWolf is a savage…. Calling out Deegs in expert fashion.  They will eventually be on the track together and I expect fireworks.  And DeWolf is no pushover, he will take Deegs over the berm without a second thought.

Really exciting to hear it sounds like Levi had a good off-season, he really gels with the tracks on the west coast so this should be electric. It’s funny to me to, not on here, but read many comments where poeple genuinely think Kitchen has absolutely nothing for Deegan when you could easily make an argument backed up with evidence that Levi is the better supercross rider

What evidence is that, exactly?

“Flying at the test track” that he rides 8 days a week. If he had a good offseason and his heads in the right place I can see him winning. If he starts out winning and DNGR makes some mistakes in the first couple rounds to put himself in a deficit I’d like to see what happens then.

Levi needs to start being consistent to even have a chance.

Deegan grew up with a SX track in his yard and most likely has substantially more SX laps than anyone in the 250 class. That alone to me is what is so stunning about him being so much better outdoors than in SX. When he hit the pros, I expected him to take to SX like a duck to water and struggle outdoors but he's really a throwback.

All I know is Deegs acting like he already won the title would fire me up.   If you aren't then you aren't a true competitor.   Levi has no pressure.   Nobody really thinks he can beat Deegan. Deegan will come out throwing haymakers.   You're going to have to weather that for a bit and then go work. 

He's been in the class for years now,  he's expected to win races and compete for the title.  There's pressure.

That and I feel like his talents are better set for outdoors. We saw smx in Vegas when he tried to make things happen like he is successful doing outdoors. Supercross and “smx” he’s just not as strong as outdoors with more time and idk if the word “more room for error” is the correct one but that’s what I believe.

A did a quick results search and I think Kitchen and Deegs have lined up together 4 times in supercross. Kitchen has beaten Deegan one of those 4 times (2023). Deegs was better in the other 3.

I just don't see LK hanging with Deegan. It would make great racing, but Deegan seems to be elevating his riding every year. I can't say that about any other 250 rider.

Deegan has elevated his riding every year.  2024 was a huge improvement from 2023, and 2025 was an improvement from 2024.  My guess is, and I think most here would agree with me, that when Deegan gets to the 450 class in 2026, his speed will be so surreal, so incredible -- almost as if defying the physics of what a 450 can do -- that the other riders are simply going to settle for second place and so on.  Hannah 2.0?  I don't think so. More like RC 2.0.

Levi isn’t in the same class as Deegan, he pulled a shitty move on him at the WSX and he has nothing for him as for speed, name me one rider who can run with Deeg’s he is a level above and it will be clear this season, he will dominate easily.

Got a lot of time on my hands healing up from a talus and navicular injury on my right ankle and foot.  Been watching videos of Haiden Deegan, and I realized that I'm not just a fan, but a super fan.

Not strong at smx?  He lost 1 moto in 24 and won the first 3 motos easily in 25 before Levi took him out.  Vegas shit show was because shimoda had to be in 4th and haiden had to win the last moto to take the title.
