Mat Mladin- Inside with the Champ part 7

[fel3mis1]

HAHA the midgets in Grand Prix Europe!! Never heard a professional AMA guy refer to the GP riders as that lol!!

[ilikesuzuki]

after this clip gives me a good reason why i don't like mat he is a cocky ass motherfucker

[khyoon14]

@ilikesuzuki Yeah dude, but that's just a part of who he is, keyword a part. If that's the mentality he has to have to win then so be it. You don't even know him 100% how can you make such judgement?

I'm a total asshole when I get competitive. I give my credits to people where its due, but doesn't mean I should be super friendly to them. That's not the way I'm built. I'm sure if you saw the other part of Matt, you wouldn't be saying that.

Cheers.

[ilikesuzuki]

@khyoon14 yeah i do understand all of that, but still u can be great and don't be a dick at the same time.

[khyoon14]

@ilikesuzuki Definitely. I agree with you, but not everyone can be like that. Mat is Mat and that's just how he is. If it takes for him to be an asshole to focus wholeheartedly on winning, that's on him. Don't have to like him, but at least give him that respect. I'm just saying don't judge a person based on character flaw, if you can even call it that.

Btw I see your name is ilikesuzuki. I ride a gsxr1000L1. Love it. you?

[ilikesuzuki]

@khyoon14 yeah, i agree to some what.  we r all hypocrites and not perfect. i had a 07 750 gix. i sold it, now i want a honda. owning suzukis and hondas, in my opinion hondas are better made.

[khyoon14]

@ilikesuzuki Honda during the early to mid 2000's were kinda of crap to me. With the new blades that have came out since 07, they have been outstanding. If a liter bike is what you're looking for definitely one of the best choices for japan bikes.

"Out of all the MotoGP guys, only Rossi could come to AMA and be competetive"

Come on man, that's just bullshit!!!

[ilikesuzuki]

@r1gester mat is a fucking douche too fucking cocky that's why no one likes his ass, egotistic motherfucker

"Some of those midgets that race in Europe in Grand Prix, you put 'em on a Superbike over here in America at Infineon, they'll last about five laps and be done. They'll be done. They ain't keepin' up with Ben Spies or Matt Mladin on some of these race tracks over here on a 200+ HP superbike. ... There's only one guy over there that could come over here and be competitive. ... Rossi."

[a2birdcage]

@Blake1960 He seemed to forget about another man who beat him...................Nicky.

[Blake1960]

@a2birdcage I think he was speaking specifically to the Euro contingent in MotoGP.

[urudufusmisrael]

" not talking about road bikes "

the clear truth of what 09 bikes represent to Mat

lol

[trumpet5432]

@urudufusmisrael so he believes ama racers are better than motogp racers ? Wow !

[Motosportnut]

David Swarts is labeled as Jason Pridmore at 1:25 ....Great series, thank you very much to everyone at OTT for this look inside the head of Mat Mladin. Also, thank you to Mat for the interview.

[OnTheThrottleTV]

That's not David Swarts, that's James Compton....my bad.

[irontruck]

those midgets in Europe LOL!

I immediately thought of Pedrosa :)

But I can't believe Lorenze or Pedrosa wouldn't last in the US on a superbike.
