Wow that will be a hell of a show. I can't make a good top 5 prediction but I wouldn't be surprised if B Pak came in last....
Ben Pakulski needs to stop entering the open and give it away fucking hopeless.
Based on the package they brought in Vegas, I'd love to have it this way:
1/ Bonac
2/ Roelly
3/ Dexter
4/ Ramy
5/ Dallas
6/ Josh
BUT I have a feeling politics may rather give:
1/ Dexter
2/ Rhoden
3/ Ramy
4/ Roelly
5/ Bonac
6/ Dallas

I know people were saying when he won a pro show to quality for the O recently ( Toronto pro I think it was ? ) that he has bought his usual triplet carrying gut down. I felt it too , whatever he did to achieve it in poses he had better stomach control ( I never saw his free routine , transitions etc)
But man when he walked on the O stage for his routine the shear fucking girth of his stomach is just too big and distorts his physique and now pair that waist with his certified NPC armature arms size it looks just painful and even bigger (the waist). Also his back is very weak and he has high insertions so doesn't even get help from a V taper as he doesn't have winklaar's barn door back.
In transitions I could see his stomach just wanted to hang out massively. It was a huge huge effort for him to pull it in somehow in those poses. I take back what I said in my earlier feedback no I am not impressed sorry Ben time to hang up your posing trunks and sell your cookie cutter MI40 program to the masses.
You are doing well Ben and making £££ please spare us the mental agony and shear torture of having to see you on stage.

I saw his Olympia routine and the way he walks, transitions. Hitting vacuums is one thing. I did initially gave him credit for that as I had only seen his pics from the show he won his Olympia qualification and yes he pulled off vaccums and looked much improved in still photos.What are u talking about? Did u even watch Ben's last 3-4 shows? Ben had no Gut. He was hitting vacuum poses. Very well under control
Ramy
Dexter
Rhoden
Roelly
Bonac

However I only saw him live in real time at the O while doing his routine and transitions. His midsection girth is massive and his pelvic girdle aren't small either but more then the width between his ASIS's it's the sheer stomach girth. Yes he has somehow managed to bring it down " only when" he is hitting the abs shots and vacuums. He has obviously responded to the latest feedback from IFBB but the distension is still other otherwise.
He does have high lat insertions and wider pelvic girdle then many other genetically blessed pros like Shawn , Cedric, Justin etc so this further does NOT help him to at least create the illusion of having a small waist.
However I do applaud him for being proactive and doing something about it and listening to the judges and their feedback not particularly towards him but in general.
Read properly before quoting.
