2012 Mr. Olympia PICS You May Not Have Seen!!!

[adrianisgnarly]

Awesome photos. Repped.

[tsiparlanaeht]

Kai`s leg, chest, mid section and conditioning overwhelm Phil in the side tricep. Thus making Kai the winner.

Conditioning? Mid section? Are you fuking high bro?

It's Phil's pose.

[DOC]

Every new photo just makes it clearer and clearer that Kai should have won..looks amazing from the back.
Also, Branch looks like a lab experiment gone wrong..disgusting.

take a look again, both shots phil is winning.

It's Phil's pose.

Why? What aspects overpower Kai's and make's him the winner?

[Larfleeze]

Kai: better conditioning, legs, arms (from the front and back), chest, width, lats..pretty much everything other than traps and tris. He also doesn't pull retarded facial expressions and act like a total knobhead onstage.

Inb4 Kai fanboy, I just severely dislike Phil ever since the last O.

I don't normally find anything worth complimenting when it comes to Kai but he is just embarrassing everyone in this shot. Roelly looks like an NPC competitor below the delts here.

I prefer Kai's tri over Phil's.

kai has better delts than phil? you're clearly thinking this through...

you and roro need to let this pass. i thought kai was a little better in most poses(key wording; not herp "he destroyed phil"), but it still was a close contest. Do you lose sleep over this?

[Iceman1981]

Those pics are amazing(except branch and wolf) thanks iceman.

Just imo but i think Dexter should have been 3rd

Np Fan.

Dexter looked amazing. I wouldn't have bitched if Dexter was third, but I think Rhoden deserved 3rd place.

[Iceman1981]

Dexter looks like concrete.
Kai.....holy...

Same thing I was thinking. The muscle maturity is crazy.

[Iceman1981]

great pictures, reps!

edit: on spread.

Np.

[Iceman1981]

Scrolling down the pics in the OP I literally cringed after seeing the top 4 then seeing Branch..

Exact way I felt also LOL.

[Iceman1981]

To be fair the sheru pictures are more accurate for that reason.

But i kinda agree that phil wins side tricep, but thats the only pose i think he wins vs kai and that just slightly because kai's lowerbody is better.

The Sheru Classic had some of the worst lighting for a contest that I've seen. The physiques are washed out in every pic.

Forgot delts (and forearms) actually..oops.
Haha no, just hate the sh*tty judging in the sport. IMO this year's O was almost as big a screwjob as 07.

Here are some pics from the 2012 Mr. Olympia of the Top 10.

5. Branch Warren (Don't as me how he got fifth)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?

None were as bad as the 1981 Mr. Olympia. No complaints after seeing that contest.

It was not, they were both in shape

[Iceman1981]

Kai is clearly superior in the back double bi posted above, side tri is literally the only pose I had Phil winning in this year, the Sheru was an even clearer win for Kai

Kai has the edge in the BDB, but Phil clearly beats Kai in the RLS. Kai's traps are too small and when he fully hits the RLS, his middle back is too smooth with very little separation. Every muscle in Phil's back "Pops Out" at you when he hits the RLS. Phil's delts are rounder in the RLS and his arms are just better in the RLS.

[jahaa]

Yeah but atleast it shows everyone under the same light, instead of pictures taken straight ahead with phil being 1 foot closer to the camera but w/e.

[Iceman1981]

Iceman, I enjoy your threads, but please make use of the NSFW tag next time you want to post stuff like this.

LOL, I will next time.

[jahaa]

Also people seem to forget that legs are 50% of every pose and Kai's legs are better then Phils from every angle.

Phil's upper back is better but Kai's superior width and lower body give him it for me.

[FAN0FdaSport]

LOL, I will next time.

you should put a huge ass watermark on the next branch pic covering his physique

would provide major lulz

[Tb0282]

I can't believe that there was a time when Branch Warren actually looked good. How can someone mess up their physique that badly?

[Iceman1981]

Kai`s leg, chest, mid section and conditioning overwhelm Phil in the side tricep. Thus making Kai the winner.

In my opinion, Phil easily wins the side triceps and owns the pose. Phil had the edge in the Side Triceps in the prejudging. In the finals Phil tightened up a lot while Kai came in flat. Look at Kai and look at all of the fullness he lost in the finals.

Prejudging



Finals

[Iceman1981]

Awesome photos. Repped.

Np.

[DerekEt]

Phil is just phenomenal...

[stealth_swimmer]

wait til u meet him in person

and phil takes both shows

agreed on both points

[Big Slim DaDDy]

Using show results as a argument is not really vaild imo, brb cutler best bber in 07 and branch warren 5th this year. Try to be objective instead.

Yeah but Cutler looked like poop in a bag in 07. Did Phil look like a big poo poo bag this year? No. So this years results are valid. Not my opinion. Fact.

Saying results aren't valid when a guy who wins looks like $hit I could understand.

[Big Slim DaDDy]

Kai`s leg, chest, mid section and conditioning overwhelm Phil in the side tricep. Thus making Kai the winner.

mid section, pecs at this angle, tricep, forearms, delts, you dont really judge bi's in this pose but they are there adding to the huge muscleyness of the arm so I'll add BICEPS. Calves. Conditioning is debatable for either. Kai probably overall has better legs but Phil's arent exactly something to sneeze at.



fyi anyone posting in this thread can bet their asses I have my raincoat on in prep of the inevitable $hitstorm I potentially have caused by saying "pecs at this angle." I've got my derp goggles on too.
