This is EXACTLY what the sport needs. I have been saying it for a couple years now, WP needs to come to the next race is all black. Relish in the fact he is the big bad guy, promote the hell out of it. Worked for Dale Sr. No one give a crap about him in a pretty yellow and blue car. The first race he had the thing painted all black he instantly became a household name. If you want better ratings for motocross then show it over and over. The only thing better would have been to interview him as soon as he walked off the track. Let him drop a couple bleeped f-bombs and pointing his finger at the little pussy.
Speaking of, when was the last time you took a few left hooks to the back of your head and did not even try to throw back? If you have a set of hangy down things, then the answer better be NEVER. Freezer boy is the biggest pansy since his teammates brother... wait, he fits that team perfectly.
Remember J-law and poto fight? Of course you do. But who won the race that day? No one knows or cares.
If I was in a position to sponsor ANY rider. WP would be my first and only choice.
