So since the NY Pro is now 1 week away and no one has made it yet i'd take it apon myself so the list in no specific order.
1. Cedric McMillan
imag
Last years winner and who many thought would take this years Arnold classic and Brazil but has had in my opinion a poor showing at the Arnold classic and a greater disappointment at the Arnold Brazil by not showing up on time which lead to a disqualification from the show. That disqualification I believe lead him to throw his name into the competitors list for this years NYP to make up for the upset he left in his last two showings somewhat his time for redemption, though can he pull it off again in such a stacked show will be difficult considering the only person "pushing him last year was Jackson.
2.Victor Martinez
screen capture program
Victor who has honestly the worst luck out of any current competitor in the IFBB has this chance in his home turf to win a big show and prove that he is still a contender though IMO recent pictures would lead me to believe otherwise, this is his opportunity to qualify for the Olympia.
3.Mamdouh Elssbiay
upload photos
"Big Ramy" the much anticipated pro debut of last years Arnold amateur pro card winner, now there have been endless threads of his future dominance in the sport. This is his opportunity to prove that unlike Cedric the hoopla is well deserved though we all are realistic that due to politics he most likely wont take first this is a big chance to put down his foot hold in the IFBB.
4.Arron Clark
image upload no ads
24 year old Clark will be the youngest competitor in the line up and in recent pictures one word that comes to mind is condition though he does not yet have the size to be a contender for the top 3 i believe if he has his condition spot on he'll be a shoe in for top 6.
5.Antoine Vaillant
print screen windows 7
Antoine though a fan favorite has his work cut out in this stacked line up, an underdog i believe he will do decent though not yet his time to shine, the best he can do is prove that he can get his conditioning on point and prove his Pro card was not just a "gift"
6.Keith Williams
image sharing
last years NPC Team Universe winner in what i think is his pro debut also but i could be wrong
"A former NFL football player turned bodybuilder, Keith Williams shook the NPC tree until he finally got the pro qualification nod. He's now an IFBB pro bodybuilder looking to work his way up the IFBB ranks."
7. Jon Delarosa
image upload no registration
Last years 5th place finisher looking to move up some spots this year his conditioning has been looking on track in recent picture though with this years line up i have his falling a spot or two.

8. Juan Morel
screenshot green
Morel returns after a fourth-place finish last year Victor, Jon, and Juan are close friends and I believe they've been pushing each other which will make for a great showing I think IMO he'll place the same though
9 Marcus Haley
free upload
Marcus who was a big target for this years Arnold Classic gut problems is looking to prove it was just "food poisoning" he should place well though if his guts in check which i hope it will be.
add more after my workout

gut feel is that ramy will be the most conditioned of the linup. and someone should ask cedric to stop sucking his abs like that. it'd be much better if he flexes it. It somehow gives the impression that he is not conditioned enough

This. Elssbiay looks good yes, but up against the true big boys? Hmmm.Originally Posted by tyronebiggums69
Victor to win imo.''There’s this battle over waterboarding at places like Guantanamo Bay. I think that they should just say, “Hey, if you guys don’t talk, you have to see Hercules In New York.” I guarantee those guys would talk much faster. You don’t need to do waterboarding or anything else. That’s the ultimate threat.''

Top 3 in order:
Vic
Ced
Ramy...
I think once Ramy compete for a little while longer he will improve, but for the moment he doesn't have the deep cuts, separations, etc. that he needs. I also think Marcus has a good chance of getting in the top 5 if he dials it in.

Marcus posted some pics on MD. His waist looks a lot better this time around. Sick conditioning too.Originally Posted by Mohaaboy

No Zack Khan? A shame.
We're dodging more ninjitsu attacks than Flex Wheeler. We're ducking more bullets than George Farah. We're facing more death than a kid leg pressing at Branch Warren's gym.
You can't stop us. You can't hold us back.

I really hope that Cedric or Victor wins. Its their body types that should represent bodybuilding in the future and not Ramy,s.

1. Victor Martinez
2. Big Ramy
3. Cedric McMillan
4. Marcus Haley
5. Aaron Clark
I believe Cedric and Marcus may switch places - I'm feeling Cedric has been shrinking of late.I don't lift weights, I flex under duress.

I love Ced but I think Vic will take it because of his story (2012 Arnold anyone?)
