Let's talk retirement

I was thinking about it and I wonder if Jay will come back. I think he will but there is no better time for him to ride off into the sunset. He's on top of the world, reached his goal of 3 sandows, and just showed his best physique ever......or that could make him wanna keep going for #4.

And what about Dex? He never thought he'd win an Olympia. He did that and surpassed all his own expectations, and is coming off a disappointing 3rd place. He's already won the Arnold twice and Ironman once, and hes almost 40. Is there anything left for him?

For jay, maybe, I think he will still compete, I bet he could win one more time.

As for Dex, I dont know.

if jay shows up like that again, or even better, i can see him winning at least another 2 so i dont think he should ride off just yet

if ronnie comes back this year, i would love for jay to go another year, because it would be epic

Imagine this lineup..

Jay Cutler
Ronnie Coleman
Phil Heath
Dexter Jackson
Kai Greene
Branch Warren
Tony Freeman
Ronny Rockell
Evan Centopani
Brandon Curry
Melvin Anthony
Rolley Winklaar
Dennis Wolf
Silvio Samuel
Hidetada Yamagishi
Victor Martinez

And someone there would not place!

i think jay will retire. im sure he would rather end his career with a win and not a loss cause im not sure if he can take a win next year.

If Ronnie does come back for one more year then I think Jay will come back, although I don't think he'll win again.

Heath and Kai won't make the same mistakes two years in a row. It's truly their championship to lose now. They are going to be battling for the next few years to come unless one of them gets injured. And know knows what a fully recovered and healthy Victor Martinez could do.

It would still be epic to see those two compete one last time. That would definitely give next year some major hype.

i think cutler should retire. this is his best showing as far as combination of mass & condition. it would be very hard to repeat something like this. he said re 2001 that what he did to get that way nearly killed him & he wouldnt do it again. this yr he was on a mission & nailed it. he should retire on a high, it dont get any better than this especially reclaiming when few thought it possible. & lets face it, he is better fighting as the underdog.

dex was considering retirement even last year, that is before he won, so its close for him as well. I think he'll do another AC & thats it.

If I was him I think I would retire now. He's been a pro for about 10years or something and he just made history and won the biggest prize in bodybuilding, no better time to walk away. However I get the feeling he'll go for another and announce before the show it will be his last.
