I gotta say, listening to Coop on the last PulpMx podcast made me rethink how I looked at him. To be honest, I went from really liking him when he rode the 250 to not being too fond of him, more so feeling neutral and shaking my head when he did bad or fell.
Steve definitely asked all the right questions, and i also want to say how amazing of an interviewer Steve is. Coop came on, as what seemed maybe feeling a bit uncomfortable, and Steve just knows what to say, got him comfortable and he opened up. Note what he said about how he and Marv talked about all the BS between them, and coop is really being the bigger guy.
I’m excited to see what the guy can do in 2019, not expecting to see him win the championship, but do well and build skill for 2020. I like how they also said how RC did horrible his first 2 premiere class seasons, and then whooped everybody.
Who knows what coop can do, but he definitely got my respect back after that interview, and he will be fun to watch.

I really like coop since the 250 day as he is a real warrior on the bike and i hope he will be right in the mix on the katoom. Wish him good for 2019 !

RC 1st year Premiere (2000 MX, he raced 125 MX in 1999) he pretty much dominates and wins the title. 2nd year 2001 MX he dominates again and wins title.
Webb had 4 top 5s in 2017 MX, no podiums or wins and gets 8th in points. 2nd year 2018 he got 1 top 5 and no podiums or wins and got 9th in points.
Really only their first season in SX are similar.
I must say I have been disappointed in his 450 rides so far but I really feel he will figure it out and be a front runner. I wish him the best and will be pulling for him.
Expecting him to do well this year. Think he will be on the podium consistently.

Webb is doing just fine he will come into his own.
NO YEA FOR SURE.

k. thx.
Is Cooper training with Aldon? Everyone (except Roczen) knows Aldon produces champions. If Cooper is getting mentally trained by Aldon, I'd have to say he will be a strong contender. Cooper strikes me as the kind of guy with so much desire, he would do anything Aldon tells him.
We all know moto is a huge mental game. If Cooper gets his head on straight, everybody else is in trouble.
We all know there are a few riders that would crush it with the right mindset, but how many are training with such a proven guy?
