You can hate the kid, but you can’t deny his grit.

Jett watching this punching air rn. Deegan goes 1-1 and Hunter pooped the bed. If Deegan did what Hunter did the forum would have exploded with haters talking about how much Deegan “sucks”. Deegan coming back to Cali to win in Carson stay tuned.

This is why he has haters. His fans act like this was a straight up race. If he did this on a dry track it would be totally different and I would be scratching my head

Because you instantly dismiss his 1st 450 win with some 0-22 nonsense.

0-22 is not nonsense. He won a mud race lol. Everyone knows mud is the great equalizer. Dayton briggs won a mud heat race lmao. Chance Hymas won a main event in mud. See what happens next week

Really solid 8th overall for Shane and the Beta in their first race together. Gotta think they are stoked with that finish

I think I broke my FF button. That was a snoozefest.  Congrats to Deegs but lack of interest by other racers was palpable.

I'm not going to try to imply that this race shows that HD would have won today if it was dry, but calling it an equalizer is funny because it didn't look equal. It looked like he put it to them hard twice in a row... There were times during the outdoor season where it was rainy and most of the guys talked about not being on the bike throughout the week and just doing conditioning, but Deegan goes out there and runs mud motos and it looks like that paid off big today

Hunter is fast as shit outdoors. I watched him bust up all the GP guys at Ironman last year AND his healthy brother. He may have beat Jett this summer even healthy. He is that fast outdoors. 

He wouldn't have beat a healthy Jett bit hes definitely the 2nd best mx rider in the AMA

Everybody is going to have their hands full with Kenny. Any man that can come off the couch and put in a ride like that in the mud is a bad mf’er. 
Supercross champ or not.

Deegan was what he was all summer, damn solid. I thought he would push the 450 too much and make mistakes. Nope. Will he remain patient in SX?

Man that’s no kidding, I was surprised even though I know I shouldn’t be. Every other guy out there has been on the gate all summer but Ken hasn’t been and he can still do that!

Why does a 1-3 beat a 2-2 in Motocross but a 2-2 beats a 1-3 in "Super" Motocross?

MX scores overalls off of points scored per moto. A 1-3 is 45 points, a 2-2 is 44 points. 1st is 25pts, 2nd 22, and 3rd is 20.

SMX uses "olympic" scoring. A 1-3 and 2-2 are both 4 points, the tiebreaker is the second moto score so a 2-2 beats a 1-3 for the overall. SMX awards only 25 points to the overall winner.

Don't ask me why they do it differently between disciplines.
