Not hating on him, just curious to see what people think. Lot's of current and future competition: Lawrence brothers, Prado, Coenen brothers, Roczen, Webb, Davies, etc.

he's the next JB51. He'll win a random race here and there, but will mostly be remembered for some sort of jackassery he does on the track.

He'll also be remembered for his jackassery off the track.

Dice roll odds… Could get lucky with guys missing a few races to injury, etc.

Everybody straight up healthy for full seasons?  I don’t think he does.

Another Deegan thread that will be page after page of the same people saying the same stuff they always say.

I think he'll win at least one. He's not as fast as the Lawrences, but he can run with them and beat them on occasion. With that and a little luck, he's right there.

When? One or two races?

I think he'll get one in both at some point assuming he figures his starts out. MX seems more likely but people seem to forget or ignore just how much faster he was through corners then the other riders in SX. If that corner speed carriers over to the 450 that alone is going to put him in the top 5 right from the start.

I think Deegan will pick up a title somewhere along the way, just out of sheer consistency. I don’t see him as the top guy in any series, but a mechanical or an injury will allow him to sneak in a title here or there. Can’t deny the kids talented, I just think with the Lawrence’s, the Coenens, and now Prado, along with Davies moving up soon it’s just gonna be harder than I think people expect.

His style will hold him back throughout his 450 career, and trying to relearn will frustrate him like it did when he trained with Christian Craig last year and went backwards.


the Lawrence’s and Coenen will have him covered outdoors for sure, but Deegz was never actually that consistent indoors IMO and always underwhelmed even when he was the favorite on 250s.


I don’t think he’ll win a title unless the other 3 are injured.  If Kenny is in the same form next year that he was this year, he’ll finish behind him in SX too.

If Prado continues making strides, and already in SX, he’s also a contender ahead of Deegz IMO.

Hint: Last year Davies had 3 wins in a row over Deegandashian. Streak was only broken by penalized Deegan dirty riding. 

This season Davies smoked that Deegandashian ass again easily once the pressure was off and his regional SX title was won this year..

Davies won his 1st SX title in his second season..took Deegandashian 3 seasons. 

I could go on…

I'm pretty sure he can win a World Supercross title.

Who ended the season with the points lead when they raced against each other? I forget but I'm assuming you have those stats and can remind me.

There have been several riders that won premier titles despite there being faster/more talented guys in the same era, so I don't see why he couldn't win one. Specially in SX it's often more important to finish every round. I think the chances will be higher for him in SX though, I just don't see how he beats the Hunter brothers or Lucas in MX in the next years. 

So far at least there is one thing that Deegan showed he is really good at and that is staying healthy. Except for the SMX playoff race with Shimoda, where he kinda forced it himself, he pretty much got away with every crash and despite looking on the edge multiple times he still somehow has a talent to stay off the ground. That might play into his hands sooner or later.

One thing is for sure, dude is very unfortunate to race in the same era with likely some of the best 3-4 riders we have ever seen and he will likely have to rely on a lot of luck to win one of these things.
