The bodybuilder of the future?

[Supercows]

My prediction: someone out of nowhere will emerge within the next 6-10 months and shock the world. None of the current guys have Phil Heath like potential.

[blkbelt42]

My pick would be Roelly. Mindblowing gains last 3 years, crazy Tri's, mass and shread, extremely symmetrical, Arnold winner.

dat back!!>!>

dont see it at all. far to many flaws

[Fedor1]

Has to be Lionel Beyeke

5'10 - 260lbs
30 years old so his prime will be the next 5-10 years if he has enough money for protein

Only needs to come in sharper and he will easily win
He has a much better build than all the other pro's

[ZBlacktt]

dont see it at all. far to many flaws

Yeah, winning the AC say's that. Good point. Look who else was at the show. Agreed both guys look far heavier today then back then too.

[TTimmerman]

Thanks.

Well you know maybe hes trying to find sponsors and thinks if he admits the use of celltech he wont get any.

lol, yes cause they're that oblivious. also GL finding a sponsor without proving anything...

[mike8190]

Idk about Roelly, he looks amazing in gym photos, but looks extremely flat on stage. Ridiculous muscle bellies, but a smaller frame and so looks small next to some other guys. I think he needs to drop sibil if he really wants to go far. But still, don't think he'll ever win an Olympia (or the real AC lol)

Other than Beyeke and Cedric, I think Jason Huh has a lot of potential. Great frame, awesome shape, very classic physique.

[greenmile66]

I agree with a lot of the previously mentioned but I'm also gonna throw in...





I know he was a lot smaller and didn't look his best when he won the Europa with all the personal issues and stuff. But I think he has some of the best lines among the pros and with that frame has the potential to pack on a lot more mass. I'm just not certain how him being active military and all the commitments there if he can 100% focus on training and "other" things like the other guys. But I don't doubt if he could commit himself to the sport without worrying about deployment and stuff that he could be one of the dominating pros of the future.

Amazing genetics, he's like the black arnold of today

My thoughts exactly. He doesn't impress much when on stage and has a hard time even holding his own against the mid-level guys. He get's completely overshadowed in a strong lineup.

Dude get's lots of hype, looks fantastic and massive in the gym as others have stated. To his benefit, he's relatively young, trains incredibly hard and will only get better with more experience. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

seriously... he nearly beat branch in the british GP...

[xpin2winx]

evans chest is not appealing at all. roelly has a better chance because hes basically got the whole package minus the ugly mid section

[PhoenixBuff]

seriously... he nearly beat branch in the british GP...

Fair enough but Olympia and the ASC is where is really counts. I would like to see him do well in those shows.

[HollywoodJohn]

I'm very jelly of Beyeke's quad feathering and his quads in general. A thing of beauty!

[HollywoodJohn]

seriously... he nearly beat branch in the british GP...

The score cards said otherwise and Branch was completely off from his ASC form 2 weeks prior. If Branch's conditioning is off, he becomes beatable.
Yes, Roelly is a mid-carder.

you do realise he has beaten wolf etc?

[schabowy90]

Too much roelly talk, not enough Evan. Let's get real he's gonna be battling for mr Olympia with beyeke and Heath in 2016. Maybe earlier.

I can see roelly in Dennis wolfs position in 4-5 years. Has his own fan base, cracks the top 6 regularly in the ac and Olympia, but struggles to even get 4th and 3rd in those shows.

[HollywoodJohn]

you do realise he has beaten wolf etc?

Mehh, Wolf was rebounding from the 2009 fiasco and no one took him seriously at that time, plus Wolf was completely deflated at that New York Pro. Roelly is good but he's not even an Olympian top 10, until he does that he'll remain a mid-carder and i don't say a low-tier pro because well he did won the NY Pro and placed 7th or 8th in the ASC that year.
Alot of hype but he doesn't seem to be able to bring something solid to the stage 95% of the times.

i just hope he'll bring a much improved package at his next comp

[rushki]

Roelly is impressive, but I don't get why people are on his nuts... I think his midsection will keep him from greatness, it's the first thing that stands out, amazing quads though.

Keep in mind the politics behind the industry... the best will not always win.

I personally hope they stem away from mass-monster and focus on aesthetics/shape/proportion... guts need to be in check.

[kodiak6]

My vote goes to Evan, but can also see Kuclo doing big things in the future. Both seem extremely detailed and articulate in their entire approach to the sport

[HollywoodJohn]

i just hope he'll bring a much improved package at his next comp

Let's say he has the potential, somewhat has proved that potential on 2-3 shows but he sill has a long way to go.

[IntraVol]

Agreed but I also question his tattoo. Do you think its taken into consideration?

Opinion is opinion, we've got it. Who was your pick for the topic btw? Haven't seen that post. Or was is the leg sweep guy. With the gift of no conditioning needed, lol. Btw, I do like that guy as well. He has the build to do very well in the sport. But like you said about Roelly " Let's say he has the potential, somewhat has proved that potential on 2-3 shows but he sill has a long way to go. " Same applys.

[weltweitefurcht]

Cedric! If he decides to go for it and tap his full potential.

I am going to say no to Evan Centopani. Looking at his structure, shape, I don't see him as THE bodybuilder of the future.

Some say we shouldn't assume or judge, because look at how Ronnie came out of nowhere. My comment about that is that Ronnie clearly had the muscle bellies/shape to fill in as a Mr. Olympia. No one expected him simply because he lacked the development, not because of some genetic limitation.

I also think Phil Heath is the bodybuilder of the future right now. He's got a different look to his muscles that make me think he has some myostatin mutation going on, and he is Mr. Olympia to boot.

While I put Cedric a step ahead of everyone when it comes to potential (To be a dominant Mr. O)

I also am curious to see how Lionel, Winklaar, (even Curry) and others do!

Just my opinion folks.

I get that it's your favourite but it's contest history and how much you like him doesn't make him a top tier until he proves himself.

My pick is Evan Centopani.

[FAN0FdaSport]

I'll certainly put my nuts on the line and say Roelly will be a better pro than Beyeke.

Roelly is gonna compete in the Finland show the week before the Olympia and qualify from there. We'll finally see him battle it out for top 10. From what Lionels got going we can expect a last place finish.

[ZBlacktt]

Record just shows who have an opinion based of not knowing is all.

Evan is a good guy. He comes in at the 3:42 mark. What do you see when side by side? First half of the video speaks for itself... The other video I posted the page before show how much mass this guy has added. Again, because I like him means very little. But I can see him doing much damage.

I said he had the potential to do damage, i didn't took anything away from him but doesn't change the fact he's still a bit far of being a Top-tier but who knows, sometimes status change in a single off-season and after a great showing.

I chose Evan because while Roelly has potential to do damage, Evan is already doing damage and i don't even like Evan's physique all that much neither i find him all that great, just it is what it is.

So far Evan is way ahead of Roelly.

[pharmamarketer]

Thanks.

Well you know maybe hes trying to find sponsors and thinks if he admits the use of celltech he wont get any.

Lol. Yeh, that hurts sponsorships.


I hope Evan is there in the future and Phil. I would like to see Phil pass the torch to Evan when the time is right

[PEETcassidy]

My pick would be Roelly. Mindblowing gains last 3 years, crazy Tri's, mass and shread, extremely symmetrical, Arnold winner.

People say that's his weakness but if this was a Dorian pic it would be put on a pedestal. The guy is truly a freak. Definitely the most outstanding of the up and coming guys IMO. Besides Phil of course but as he's at the top of the mountain it's hard to really call him a prospect these days.
