MC is the King Of Supercross. Ricky is the G.O.A.T. Someone may win more Supercross Races than MC. Someone may win more Championships than Ricky...but I doubt either will happen with the money these guys make nowadays and the talent across the board...

lets pull this back up in 5 years

Why?

[@jayeddleston9486]

The king of supercross 🤘

[@Matthew-zw9su]

Just give them comfort and they will win and say amazing things. Fyi, i got some 'comfort powder' for sale. It costs less per day than a car payment and helps you go faster. Just add to your favorite pre-ride beverage.

No Jeremy was on a whole different level than Jett indoors. Jeremy will always be the best and most technical Supercross rider ever. He was incredible and was also a transcending athlete!!! Ricky is the best Outdoors no one compares to his aggressive style and speed. James was incredible but RC was more consistent.

[@joelmatthews5697]

But you’re comparing a prime Jeremy with a 20yo Jett. 20yo Jeremy wouldn’t deserve to wash Jett’s bike.

Jeremy is the king but wasn’t Ricky a year younger than Jeremy was when he won his first 250 soupy Championship.?

[@FalseHope61]

Yeah but Ricky also raced 5 less years, and had a higher winning percentage against tougher competition. At Ricky’s pace, he would of caught and passed McGrath. 6-8 wins a year, We KNOW he would of won most in 08, and for sure 2010. James in 07 and 09 would of been 50/50.

[@TwistLosi]

You are assuming if RC did not get injured if he continued racing, he was clearly mentally over it with how hard they were pushing things in training and racing. It's why MC's record will be so hard to beat as he sustained being at the top for so long.

[@joel387ktm]

Your high bro wouldnt of happened the dude won 14/15 races in a season mcgrath is the man

[@ryancarlisle4621]

MC had to race Stanton, Bradshaw, larocco, Mike Kiedrowski, L. Ward, Emig, Lamson, Carmichael, David Villiman, Lusk, Windham, Tortelli, and more!!! RC had Chad Reed, Stew, Tortelli, Windham Lusk(on his down side) Villiman(on his down side, MC, sorry but MC faced way stiffer comp his whole career, RC is the goat of outdoors, but kings Feast on goats!!!

[@TheImtoomuch]

You’re hilarious. Could have, would have and should have, but didn’t.

[@eric_sandstrom]

As I remember Jeremy's main reason for thinking nobody's gonna break his record is because nobody will stay in the sport long enough, he said nobody stays in the sport long enough. Well, that has changed because number 18 is already thinking in terms of breaking the record he's young enough to stay in long enough and conveys he wants to break the record , I'm sure he's done the math and realizes how many potential years he may need to keep doing this until the record is broken. I can't say I'm a fan (mainly because he listens to Drake lol) but I think, truly it's only a matter of time.

[@iFlyAircraft]

Wins = Consistently faster than your competitors. But for the new kids on the block, they won’t hit 72 wins because the pay is so much better today. Assuming Jett has a perfect season this year in SX he will have 16 wins plus championship money. Then he does Supercross for like 3 more years and retires comfortably if he is okay with the quality of life financially he has provided. 72 wins is 4.5 Supercross seasons or could be done in half the time if he wins lots of outdoors. So ultimately, the money is so good that most riders will retire before hitting that 72 win mark.

[@Rubeless]

Motocross is the sport; supercross was created for fans. Ricky may not have the natural talent that Jeremy has, but he has heart and his talent was his commitment. Jeremy was in the party scene, Ricky was a dedicated athlete focused on winning championships. Motocross is twice as demanding as SX. Jeremy has one outdoor title, that was against other riders that were generally hungover on Sunday.

[@user-zx1ir7jt4c]

Yeah but Supercross is far more important now than moto.... just the way it is...

[@nathancrittenden8525]

​@@user-zx1ir7jt4cImportant for who? I don't know one fan that prefers it

[@bjmckay3]

Took Jett 1 year to get to top👌💪JL1 over Jeremy and James sorry lads new boss would smoke u both!! 💪

[@eric_sandstrom]

Are you guys unable to talk without cussing. So lame

[@Benjamin8019]

Jeremy has a fragile little ego… so obvious it grinds him that he’s not the GOAT.
