These guys look amazing! Looking at that type of muscular detail reminds me what bodybuilding should be about. Dorian was huge but came in peeled and Ronnie's shape, size and conditioning for most of his career was great. Now, you usually don't see this type of detail. I still love the big physiques but Classic just brings back a look where it's an art form and shows that the size game has gone a little too far...in my humble opinion.
I really did enjoy the classic this year, the first time I really paid attention. I do wish they did the same mandatories in addition to the classic shots they hit.
Hadi was screwed, he was much better than Brandon and Phil, and had the more sharper condition of all, better quads than Brandon, the best A&T, harder glutes and hams.
Hell, I like him more even than Ramy, although in some poses he is not so massive
Hadi was much better the second night than at pre-judging. Had he brought the same level of conditioning at pre-judging that he had at finals I would have been more of a lock. I personally would have preferred he place third.
