Disagree. Where exactly Phil arms is in better condition ? You can see feathering in Ramy shoulder and Ramy forearm is more shredded. If we are talking from this pics. Ramy arms was always shredded. Ramy is more vaslucar also.
Phill never looking impressive from front atleast in my mind. And Ramy is great from the front. He need to improve his back side.

ahhh I forgot about compton!, I confused him with dallas, take dallas out lol
[QUOTE=Witherman;1461312153]interesting. reasoning for dex in 7th?[/QUOTE]
I feel Phil, Ramy, Shawn, Cedric and Josh all beat dexter on legs and detail in the legs, however Ramy coming in in bad condition or cedric coming in flat dexter will move up.
Dexter know's where he is and is there to jump ahead in placings if any other guy is off.

[QUOTE=bigBOSSguy;1461276313]why kai greene did not compete in mr Olympia two years in a row?[/QUOTE]
It's complicated and we still don't know the full story.
Last year Kai left his long-time sponsor Musclemeds and founded Dynamik Muscle. The Olympia was to be a major promotional event for his company (as it is for all supplement brands). Apparently he demanded certain things of the IFBB, such as a free title sponsorship, a 20x20 booth space and no union load-in fees. They weren't willing to give him this. A Mexican standoff occurred, negotiations broke down, and now Kai's de facto blacklisted from the event (and has lost his Weider/AMI sponsorship).
...That's one side of the story. The other comes from IFBB promoter Robin Chang.
[url]http://www.flexonline.com/ifbb/kai-greene-out-olympia[/url]
He claims it's all bull****, Kai hasn't been banned from anywhere, and that he failed to sign and deliver the contract on time! The whole thing is incredibly bizarre at this point. Why wouldn't Kai sign the exact same contract he did for the five years previously? Nobody else at the show had any problems signing that contract.
So basically nobody really knows what happened. I suspect there's more to it than Kai not signing a contract, but we can't be sure. Whenever Kai gets asked about it he waffles and evades.
[QUOTE=BartPimpson;1461201053]The final competitor list has been released. Barring an emergency, these are the people who will be on stage.
3. I didn't realise Curry, Lockett, Pakulski, and Kuclo qualified. [b]The first two are jokes[/b]
[/QUOTE]
Agreed, but man...I remember when Curry had so much hype with his bellies and structure, the perfect midsection, being called "The Prodigy" sponsored by BSN, placing 8th his first Olympia....then he proceeded to make 0 improvements and seems unable to come in condition.
Phil had a comparable physique...in 2005 lol. Brandon just looks the same every year, guess he just is what he is.

Interesting. In my opinion Dallas is actually a LOT more complete and will do better than Compton. Both are great up and comers, but I think Dallas is just too big for Compton right now and is not overpowered by his arms like Compton is at times.

Same. Dallas hasn't done anything except impress since he turned pro, while Compton is talented but inconsistent.
I think it will go Dallas/Justin/Josh, but really any arrangement of those three could happen.

Something about Josh's physique just throws me off.

Agree. Dallas has much better proportions

This is how I feel about DeAsha lol.

Yep, Compton's arms look twice the size of his other body parts in comparison IMO.
Some seriously intense training here. Hide has been getting better from show to show as of late.

definitely impressive to see how far he's come in such a short amount of time, but I also feel that this picture clearly shows he's lacking some thickness that can only come with sustained, long term training of the back.
still, more pumped for this olympia than i have been in a while which means the levrone comeback is working (along with the anabolic chicken in kuwait baby plz)
Hide does look good this year. I have always liked him but not his physique but he looks full this year.
ABOUT TIME.

I'm hoping that with Phil and Dex being with Ultimate Nutrition we'll see some training footage together. Hoping...

This one was great. Dex going hard on his legs. I reckon he could upset Phil this year.
