305 lb seems too big of a bodyweight, considering he was round 290( if that) last year
Ramy better be careful, all I'm saying.He isnt as far ahead of the pack as he thinks.

He said in an interview afterwards that he is actually around 295 without the suit/shoes.

At that size he can lose 10lb of water in a day easy.

[RobberBaron13]

Absolutely, but he shouldnt NEED to be losing water one day before a show...
Either way in prejudging he wasnt as good as last year, so I was right when I said he might be a touch off.

[RobberBaron13]

You really think a suit and shoes weight a full 10 lb? Maybe 5 lb ...

All I can say for sure is Walker got robbed. Hunter was much smoother, softer that Nick.
Those 2 placements should have been reversed imo

Maybe dat der Labrada sponsorship affiliation??

The fact that Hunter was a solid 4th in both prejudging and finals is laughable.Heck most in attendance felt the small and flat Hadi was behind Walker also in prejudging.
Looking at all the reports and wrapu-ps most had prejudging like this- Ramy and Brandon basically tied, then Walker then Hadi then Hunter.And in finals Ramy first,Hadi 2nd, Curry third, Walker and Hunter battling for 4th.
Walker has been a force this season and has been quite confident/vocal , maybe the judges wanted to teach him a lesson and since this was his Olympia debut he hadnt paid his dues yet .
Dunno but back in the day these placings used to fluctuate alot more.So while Weinberger has been praised for having lots of call-outs his panel seems a bit lazy when it comes to the actual scoring.

hadi
walker
ramy
curry

should have been the results

[RobberBaron13]

hadi was way way off in prejudging, thats half the scoring
there is more to judging than just conditioning
if condition alone decides i guess Dorian Yates is the undisputed GOAT as he was by far the most conditioned Olympian
