The kid really lives rent free in your head. A bunch of grown men in these threads talking shit on these young athletes is wild.

Call me a nostalgic 90s fanboy, but MJ is still maybe the coolest athlete of all time and I will support absolutely any venture he has in our sport.

This season maybe gets some good races with hunter. I predict he gets hunter in a race straight up by end of season. I’m sure he will get one over either of them due to luck too. Yes I get he went 20 sec down but so does everybody after you get passed at that intensity. He’s got a lot to work on. Think, he has 2 450 races on this bike now. He has a lot of technique and bike setup to do and he will do it. He may never have anything for Jett. Jett is a god...

He's been impressive. Not sure what you're on.

He got 4th. Now he got 3rd. I think the rise is going pretty good. plus I really dont like him at all.

I truly think if he was on the KTM still he would be right in the mix with Jett and Hunter.. When he is comfortable, he is one of the fastest riders on the planet

Its so funny how much people hate Deegan.

4/5 in this field as a 450 rookie is a solid debut and a great result to build off. Came from way back around the first corner. Put the Haterade down bro.

It’s crazy to me in this day and age someone can tell you there Intentions and when they do it.. everyone still falls for the act Deegan literally says he does the shit he does for clicks and to get people riled up on the internet. People read that and watch it then proceed to get riled up on the internet lol. He gave you his playbook and still got you all fucked up. No wonder politics is so toxic right now. People in general are just so dumb

To be fair the dude was invisible in the second moto

First American in nothing to sneeze at.

He did absolutely fine and I'm one of the greatest Deegan haters of all time.

Huh. He didn’t “straight up” beat everyone behind him? That’s strange.

Deegan rode well this weekend. He has pace even with a bad start.

It’s Deegan’s first 450 MX race. I’m not saying he will beat Jett in the future, because Jett is phenomenal, but Deegan does look really, really good out there.

Holy shit that’s a lot of drivel.

Its both. The haters are frothing at the mouth to attack him and his fans cant give anyone else credit for beating him. Of course, he rarely loses! So when he does actually drop one, people are so ready to pounce. I dont disagree with anything you said here. Deegz 250 career was stellar. The improvements he made to his sx game between '25 and '26 were so drastic. His whoop speed is top level now. Nobody even wants to give him credit for his post race maturity

You got that backwards. It is the Deegan haters that have on rose colored glasses. Deegan can win 8 in a row, and then when he loses one, threads like this pop up basically saying Deegan is Barcia 2.0. And this idea that when Deegan is challenged, he folds, is a funny one. Deegan has been challenged a lot in his 250 career. Hunter Lawrence and JCoop at Washougal, Levi Kitchen, Jo, Chance Hymus, Julien Beaumer, Tom Vialle, and others. Been challenged plenty of times, but once again, the douche squad of Deegan haters will isolate one or two races...
