Phil for the win
Phils three D look is just a wow factor...hes come in too many times and off and still beat everyone up there. he has to be way off to lose . Hes supposed to be bigger than last year and his game plan is to bring conditioning to the max. No-ne can beat Phil if his conditioning is on point
Big Ramy has to be peeled inside out, not ripped, not very lean, to beat phil and hes never done it. not to say he cant. He just about too big and if you remember how great Markus Rühl was, in his competition prime, big only doesn't win shows. It looks freaky and gets fans but to win competitions out conditioning competitors is crucial.
Dexter can sneak in
Rhoden can sneak in
as far as classic
Breon is going to be difficult to beat bc hes always peeled inside out like that and in the judges mind hes already last years winner which accounts for a lot.
Chris Bumstead if he improves and has better conditioning than last year he can win.
There are going to be a lot more taller guys, which may be a hit against Breon bc to me taller equals classic as Classic was created after one person's look - Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger
