While
Villopoto was the earliest to ever win a Supercross championship, he
was also added to a prestigious list of only five riders to ever earn
back-to-back championships. Since the 2007 Supercross season, riders
have been attempting to defending their championships, and now
Villopoto has successfully secured his second career Supercross class
