Jett Lawrence v Haiden Deegan might happen quicker than we think!
Lewis Phillips gave Haiden Deegan the opportunity to rule out the rumours that he might ride a 450 at the final outdoor round of the season if the 250 title is wrapped up.
It is something the great Ricky Carmichael said he thinks would be some great experience for Deegan ahead of next season but Ryan Villopoto was more reticent. Deegan himself admitted he has not ruled it out and it getting a 450 built for him right now!
The 250 points leader said: “Don’t know, they’re building my 450 right now….I don’t know, we’re gonna start… We’ll see, we’ll see, depends. I don’t know, that’d be pretty badass, but we got a little bit of time till then to figure it out.”
Deegan also confirmed he is in for Team USA right now despite dealing with an injury that he says is painful and prevented him from riding up to his usual fire-breathing level at Millville:
