Hunter had Eli covered last season, though I expect him to be better this year.

I think Hunter will take it. Coming into MX riding better than ever and MX has been where he looked his best.


If Jett won it wouldn’t surprise anyone. But I don’t think he will be near his best with this injury.

I think the W will come from one of these four. Jett, Hunter, Prado or Deegan.

from some of the snooping around I did & just gaging off of wht everybody prep vids being shown , unbiased analytical no dog in the fight pov , I still got Jett for the title but pala in specific there should be no reason deegs ain’t walking into hangtown with the red plate, either a 2-1 or a 1-1 sweep

Ya know, the evidence from 2025 doesn’t support your claim… Hunter beat Eli by over 5 seconds in the last MXoN moto at Ironman, and out scored Eli by 59 points to take 2nd place in the Pro Motocross Championship.

If we turn on Race Day Live, and Deegan is fastest qualifier in the very first session, it's going to be a looooong summer.

He is not RC in MX. RC won every premiere class mx championship 6 years straight. Out of those 144 motos only 11 times did someone not named RC win a race, not an overall, a race. Plus RC retired at 27 after those 6 straight titles, Jett is 22 so he needs to pick it up to be RC.

Nobody is RC, nor ever will be. 10 straight mx titles. I just meant Jett's winning percentage on a 450 for races he's lined up for...

Nobody is RC, nor ever will be. 10 straight mx titles. I just meant Jett's winning percentage on a 450 for races he's lined up for is probably better than RC's after the same amount of starts. RC actually got more dominant the older he got where I see Jett's winning percentage going down with all the added competition in the class. Or Jett gets even better lol. Which is certainly possible. What's he 22yrs old? Not even in his prime yet. Thats scary

Jett is absolutely in his prime. Is he at his peak? Maybe not. But he’s definitely in his prime.

Anyone not leaning towards Hunter is crazy. He is healthy. Had a tremendously strong year outdoors last year.. whipped the shit out of everyone at MXDN. His only downside may be that he was focusing on SX and not outdoors but still.

Man it's hard to guess at this stage.   Safest bet is hunter imo.     Would love to see haiden win off the go and have another contender in the mix but it's really hard to gauge where he is at on the 450 with the up close shots they always use .       Eli can come out and win, Prado on the ktm could be a problem.   

Idk I'm excited for this to kick off.

Right now is the best part of the season. Many possible winners on paper.  Jett if he's 100% or close, Hunter ,Prado is a better outdoor guy, Deegan wants it bad . 

 Do we see a conservative ride from Deegan, dipping his toes into the class , or going for a win and shooting for a perfect season to be the second rookie to pull it off?

 

Do we see Jett at 100% ? Have we ever seen Jett ride at his max pace? Does he need to be 100% to win?  

 

Will Hunter take his confidence and motivation of a superclose 2nd place finish in SX along with some dominating rides lapping deep into the field and be less willing to settle for 2nd? 

 WIll Prado be even faster outdoors and have wining speed? Or will he slot in someplace between 3rd and 5th ?

 

Will it be like many of the past seasons with hype of many possible winners , and the rider who has been dominate in the past coming in off an injury and being question mark ? But ending up right where they left off, dominating and the hopes of a wild season full of multiple winners destroyed in a  single weekend. WIth the question mark turned into a dominant win and an exclamation point? 

 

Will Jett do what he has always done since getting on a 450, Hoileshot or  quickly get into the lead and keep a 2 to 3 second gap all the way to the checkers in both motos and  talks of a perfect season....  

I kind of think that might be what happens. I am a fan of Jett's. 

  I do hope for a summer full of battles and multiple winners. I won't be surprised if none or all of those things I wrote about happen. 

 I'm very excited to watch and hopeful for Jett to be 100% and Deegan to be fast enough to be able to win. Along with the other guys being able to be right there too. 

   It could be an epic season, I hope that we can have good racing and everybody can stay healthy and safe. Etherway, I'm excited to get the outdoors started!

…but if the race doesn’t go well we will need a poll on the excuse…
Play the rookie card?….Sorry, you forfeit your rookie card when you talk shit to the best rider in the world.

I used the present tense.  If we talk GOAT…Jett has not earned that…but…even though I am NOT a Jett fan, I can’t argue the eye test for current riders.

Deegan going undefeated is delusional. 
He isn’t even close to being that dominant vs far lesser opponents.

I think the Lawrences take up 1st and 2nd. Maybe splitting motos, 1-3/3-1 with Deegan and Prado in the middle of them in each moto. Haiden gets 3rd overall going 5-2. Something like that. Wouldn't be surprised if Haiden gets the fastest laps in each moto and don't think it'll take long for him to win motos or an overall. The lad is a straight up junkie and his junk is winning. But growing pains/drama will cost him a shot at the title. Jett for the repeat/3 × 450 National champ.

Hunter had his hands full with a 17 year old DNGR boy the last time they raced. He’s just not on that level anymore man the kid just had a better 250 career than Jett. This championship is between 2 guys and if one isn’t 100%, he’ll be fighting for 2nd with his brother and George watching the Mulisha 450 class takeover

Having some experience with a broken talus, Jett will walk with a limp for years, fortunately it is actually easier to ride than it is to walk. So don't be surprised if Jett comes out of the gate firing.

The dude that won the title despite 2 DNFs that were out of his hands had his hands full with the guy that finished 4th in points. Yup, that's right

What I remember from that season was the 17 year old going 1-1 at washougal, making things look very interesting going into the final rounds. Then at his first ever time at Unadilla was putting some heat on the 96 before his bike blew up late.
