I’m seeing several people say Hunter was blocking/blocks.  Can anyone post a clip of said blocking or since everyone wants to make a prado comparison let’s see a Hunter cross jump video.

Tell me which one and I’ll watch it. 

 I watched him battle his brother pretty hard last year in most races.

Hunter outrunning everyone but his brother last year is a helluva lot different than the shit we're seeing prado pull.

Especially when you look back and see what his past competitors, like Cairoli, say about him.

 

Sorry boys and girls, Hunter is not a blatant blocker, or cross jumper.

Though he shouldn't be stoking any kind of rivalry fire with anyone while in a close title fight. 

Exactly. Prado’s history of this is well known in the paddock both here & across the sea.

Prado is the bad guy? Sheesh. If Hunter is faster, that means he’ll get around him, it’s not Jorge’s fault that Hunter has shitty line selection

I heard Jacob Hayes has already threatened Prado with deportation.

I was pulling for Tomac and Roczen from the start of the season, but now? I think I'd like to see Hunter take it... Just so everyone is extra salty about it.

Also, Prado rides like a dick in general. It's not even subtle and it's every weekend. He'll get his.

Funny how quick people turn on someone once they become a legit contender. I feel like the tone has always been positive and hoping for Hunter to finally break through in sx. Now he’s a roadblock?

Hopefully he doesn’t deform him like he did with Mirtl.

Yup, folks who didn't really think he'd be "the guy" were fine with it... Now it's a problem because he's giving Tomac fits.

It's a great season! I'm enjoying it, that's for sure. Will be very interesting if Jett gets in there. We're going to see some fireworks.

It’s more becuase he’s 2 faced bitching about Prado doing it, while he’s done it for Jett continually. Nothing to do with Eli.

Prado doesn't strike me as the type to intentionally help out a teammate. I think it's pure luck if Eli or anyone else gets by him quickly and cleanly. I doubt he and Eli have ever even had a conversation.

Hunter is going to fold like a cheap suit after the break. He’s cooked.

That one didn’t age well Spike. Let’s see how this one ages.

Prada's "race craft" will get him punted into the cheap seats, once Jett is back he will have to deal with 2 of them if he wants to play games.

Look up him and Jeffrey Herlings in what I think was his MXGP debut. Prado cross jumped herlings and took them both out over the finish line, while being on the same team.

At the 20 second mark Jorge crosses over the straight and then of course at the end he cross jumps Herlings. Jeffry should have done a Travis Preston and walked over, grabbed Prados chin bar and gave him a finger wag.

Hunter did have pace many times last year, but also was in the way of people intentionally a lot last year as well in MX.

Prado has won way more races at the premier level and also won multiple championships at the premier level. Hunter just got his first win and no championship, yet that is.


They are not the same caliber racer, but Hunter is quickly closing that gap.

Damn that bait is stinky!!!

I very much like 2025-26 Hunter.

2022 Southwick Hunter who got into it with Stilez Robertson, not so much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XXQkqp9pJk

What is it with the Lawrences grabbing people by the chin bar of the helmet? That's legit fighting shit if someone did that to me.

At Washougal last year in Moto 2, right in front of us Hunter let Jett slide by relatively easy before riding an incredibly wide bike in front of Sexton and Tomac, not the craziest example but it’s certainly happened

Yeah there is a reason why Prado and Herlings were on different KTM teams…

We must of watched two different races. He never held up Eli, he raced him hard for position.

I'm a big fan of Hunter, but Prado races everyone like that. It has nothing to do with him being Eli's teammate.

Ahhh back to back MXoN wins for Hunta. Multiple AMA 250 titles and looking dominant for SX champ. HJ has put in the hard yards in the US since 2019. Prada arrives like the typical arrogant primadona Spaniard and expects to be king first try. What a clown. He is best doing 3 seasons in 250's first. This isnt motogp run by spanish mafia Jorge, so you can get away with your shit.

They were battling for position, it’s not like he was a lapper. Aren’t you supposed to race each other during a race?
