You guys are wild for thinking Jett is gonna let hunter win. Not a single person in that family would want that. They want exactly what is happening. Winner take all may the best man win. If hunter wins, it’s because he beat jett straight up and vice versa. Maybe you can claim Jett sand bagged a little last weekend to make it a heads up win, but even that’s a big crazy. Jett has been going for the record books since he moved to 450s, and the amount of time he missed, he’s not just going to give up a championship.

This. Jett is an all timer already. Hes not letting anyone win, even his brother. Remember how pissed he was first moto at Red Bud when he couldn't ride like himself and Hunter beat him? I cant bet against Jett especially at Ironman. Though Hunter did crush the world the last moto he rode there

Remember his dilemma at SMX last year having a internal battle before he decided to go for it and then more or less cried after the finish because he took that away from Hunter?..

I’m not so sure that we will see full effort from Jett this weekend but I hope we do. I’m not on the ”Hunter deserves to win it” before he has won it. 

The one who wins the title clearly was the one deserving it as long as nothing strange like a mechanical or something stupid from another rider happens.

Dude I get it. I think if Jett wins we will see tears again if Jett wins. 3 mx titles puts him in elite company at 22yrs old. No way does he check up. I mean........right?

I just don’t get the feeling that this means as much to him as some seems to think.

Had it been any other rider he raced against there is no way he would be this chill about it. Hunter will fight for this with his life while Jett feels more like ”meh” if it’s there I will take it and if it’s not I’ll just accept it.

I just hope we get to see a full out battle with both riders putting in their best effort and after the second moto we can say who deserved the title.

With the way Jetts last few years have been, he’s learning the next one is never a guarantee. It’s gonna be a battle this weekend.

Q.  If points are tied, I assume there is a countback system to determine who gets the title ?
Most overalls or most moto wins?  

Can someone who knows enlighten!

And since it’s just a 1 point gap, if it ended up tied it would likely mean neither of them won the overall and in that case, it would go to Hunter since he has more overalls than Jett this year.

I swear the people saying Jett will let him win don't have brothers haha.. 

They must also be forgetting the last few laps of the SMX last year when Jett put on the afterburners to get around Eli (was it?) to get that Title from him..

Hunter just looks sharper right now than Jett.  But damn it’s hard to bet against Donut…

I’ll go with Hunter.

Hate to say this, Hunter deserves so much but I think Jett gets it done with a 1-2, and Hunter an unexpected result the first moto. I hope to see Hunter take a supercross title in the near future though

People eluding to the fact that they think Jett would let his brother win a championship over him is absolutely insane to me. Hunter would never forgive him. 

Seriously, sit back for a second and think, you finally accomplished something you worked your whole life at just for your younger sibling to come and be able to honestly say “yeah I gifted you that you’re welcome”

Hunter can wipe his tears of shame with the million dollar championship bonus. 😆

It’s been said before… if it wasn’t for Jett, Hunter would be one of the greatest riders of all time.

And if my aunt had wheels she’d be a bicycle 


If there was no Jett we’d likely see Chase and Eli fill that gap a bit more. Who ‘ owns how Hunter would factor into that hypothetical

I’m rooting for Hunter after seeing Jett cross his legs like a girl.

I would definitely bet on Hunter for the championship.  I just hope Prado doesn’t screw things up for either of the Honda guys.

Jett is going to let Hunter have it, but he will make it look pretty convincing. Then Hunter will retire after 27.

The talk of Jett letting Hunter win reminds me of one of the early rounds this year JT said Jett will probably just let Hunter pass him and be happy with 2nd. A couple of laps later Jett had gapped the field. He's a racer, the suggestion he would do anything other than race is laughable.

Hoping we get a great all out battle for it both motos and let's get Jorge and Deegan in the mix too
