Good on Haiden for giving Cole props. It's a good look for him.

At the same point in Cole's career he has had a lot more success then Deegan and I'd say more success than Jett

Davies giving Deegan a lesson what it'll be like in the 450s. A lot of guys in the 250 class would just let Haiden do what Haiden does. 450s, not so much, they'll race and tussle back. Good to see someone in Haide's talent category. That kid has mad skills but also attitude. He'll need to earn that respect in the 450s.

It does seem like deegan respects people more who race him back like he races them, with tonights racing and kitchen's Seattle battle earlier this year.

That’s not going to help Deegans confidence before Pala. Outdoors is going to be awesome to watch. Massive props to Davies, solid as a rock

He only does that when he loses. He talks big when he wins, goes quiet and pretends to be humble when things aren't going his way

I don’t know how things will go for Deegan in the 450 class but I suspect we’ll see more tough racing so if he had fun tonight he should have a great time in the 450 class. I’m looking forward to seeing it!

If he passes dudes and keeps racing forward, he’ll be ok. If he passes dudes and tries the fuck-fuck games, it’s going to be pretty painful for him until the lesson sinks in.

Only in SX. Deegs was a beast in outdoors from day one and was in title contention his rookie season against Hunter. Cole needs to start winning outdoor titles this year in dominant fashion to be on Haiden and Jett’s level.

This will be Cole's first full mx season. Neither Deegz nor Jett were dominant in their first mx season. Hunter spotted Deegz about 50 points. He wasn't on Hunter's level outside of Washougal.

In some twisted way i think people are underrating Davies, or at least a vocal part of the fans and even media are a bit like meh is he that good? 
This kid is most likely going to be a front runner the day he gets on a 450 indoors. And i think he will be good outdoors aswell, definitely top-3 outdoors this season in the 250 class.

I know Deegan was playing it off and was acting all nonchalant.. but that was an ass whooping and he knows it. How many guys catch and pass Deegan after Deegan hole shots and then makes Deegan ride over his head to keep up causing multiple mistakes. Media was giving Deegan this superhuman can’t be beat mantra and Davies just obliterated the narrative.

"Title contention" is generous. Finished nearly 2 motos back in 4th place overall on the season. Hunter also DNF'd 2 motos.

I'm sure it felt close for a moment mid-season to some folks...

Somebody remember how that season actually went down. Outside of Washougal, I can't remember a race Deegan was faster. Hunter would pass him like it was nothing

Davies is another Jett and I have no doubt that he will replace Hunter when the time comes.

Hunter is turning 27 soon?

I reckon Cole signs one year (450) deals with Star with a option to stay for a second year allowing him the freedom to team up with Jett at Honda when the time comes.

And Hunter was injured to start that season

It was one race, it didn't obliterate any narrative. That's just things you tell yourself so you have a comfort blanket.  By far and large, Deegan has dominated the class, and no one can deny that.

I think this season if Deegan and Cole could race without worrying about winning a championship and simply race with each letting it all hang out, I think Haiden wins 6-7 times out of 10 races.  Cole said numerous times this year on each east west shootout (except for SLC), he was solely focused on winning his championship and didn't want to focus on anything else.  Not sure why Deegan fans can't accept that fact.  Cole wasn't giving it 110% earlier and wasn't going to risk going down or getting injured.  I know that's a really hard pill for Deegan fans to swallow.  SLC was the only race this year where they could both race all out with no fucks given on the race outcome in terms of crashing.  And, look who came out on top.  Best 250 race of the season, by far.  Cole ran him down, roughed him up Deegan style on the pass, and won the race.  Deegan tried 2-3 times to catch him and rough him back up and ended up crashing out.  Davies made a statement.  I still believe Deegan wins 6-7 out of 10 races against Cole given their age and race experience.  But if you look at where Cole is today versus where Deegan was at Cole's stage of his career, Cole is ahead.  Same for comparing Cole to Jett.  Cole is a freak.

I think getting punted by Deegan last year was the best thing to happen to him. He went from fast amateur prospect to fast rookie who was stoked to be there, to race winner and potential championship winner in his rookie year. 

He started off this season with an arsehole attitude which many including me wasn't a fan of, but I get it. Had he played things a bit different and a few things fallen his way, he could have been champion last year. It was a wake up call that not only does he have the talent and speed to hang with/ beat the top guys, he can't fuck around and needs to lock in and that's exactly what he did. In 2 years, he's going to be a problem for everyone in 450s
