It has already been posted in the Road to the Olympia thread but might as well post it here.
Dennis James, if you're reading this, go with him through some vacuum poses. I think he can actually pull it off as advantage.
In a matter of a fraction of second,this happened , look at the difference between a unintentional vacuum and when he has his midsection flexed ;
These are untouched screenshots taken from the video, open in new tab to make it bigger.

Unless it's bad lighting or blurry camera quality I don't see him making top 6 with that kind of conditioning 3.5 weeks out, has the mass and the proportions to crack that top 3 if he's razor sharp but don't see that happening this year.
Bodybuilding is all about image not numbers, when you're up on stage your lifting stats and bodyfat % means nothing to the judges.

Yup. DJ said in an interview though that Ramy at 4 weeks out from the Olympia was as sharp as he was 5 days out from the NY Pro. That should tell us something. As long as he doesn't totally mess something up at the end, he should be sharper come Olympia time. Will it show on stage though? Hard to say cus the lighting is gonna be totally different.

Looks ready to rock to me, 3.5 weeks out with no oil and tan, dude looks right on the money. midsection TIGHT!
I think his size and proportions will be more than enough to forgive slightly subpar conditioning.
I think he will be big/wide/conditioned, but will be outclassed in the hamstrings/back detail. and 3d pop of heath and kai.
But RaMMY IS A GUY THAT LOOKS better when compared to others in a lineup rather than some guy that looks like a world beater all alone.
he will stand within the top 6 easy! and I wonder how he will react when called in line with Heath and Kai? I hope when Rammy poses down he plays on strengths...
Will we see Rammy rustle some jimmies? will he have that "YOU MAD BRO SMIRK?" will he jostle for position when posing down with the top 6? CANT WAIT BRO'S CANT WAIT!

I wasn't talking about the pose itself, I simply mentioned that after noticing how far he can go if he vacuum's, he should try the poses with a vacuum, for example the FDB. Also, he can vacuum in his hands on thighs most muscular without losing detail in his chest and arms, in the video, he just didn't do it. He will obviously lose detail in his abs but look at that mind blowing taper, also imagine the ratio between his Shoulder Width, relatively small waist and a mind blowing lower body sweep. It would look absolutely ridiculous. There's no harm in trying and sending pictures so we can judge.

Agreed, but I disagree with Roro - he would not look better with a vacuum in any sort of most muscular, not even the hands on hips one. It just doesn't go with the pose. Crab most muscular takes emphasis off the abs and core in general. Hands on hips accentuates it but is supposed to draw attention to the detail in the midsection as well, which means it needs to be flexed. imho
