the man to beat is JAY CUTLER.

 

[nosmas]

what happened to ronnie?

He felt his time had come to walk away and most fans would agree that it was time. I was/am a very big fan of Big Ron.

the man to beat is JAY CUTLER.

It sounds like your right from what I am hearing, seeing and reading.

 

[KillerStack]

retired!

Since when? The Olympia he may be done with but I haven't seen him say he is retired.

 

[KillerStack]

They're going to let Cutler win, for the simple fact the IFBB knows he's got enough going on outside of the sport to keep him financially stable and busy. They dont want him leaving to go anywhere just yet, they'll let him win at least once more. Even though Wold deserves it. Actually, Wolf deserved it last year too

Is the Olympia decided in advance... are the judges instructed to place him first no matter what? How does this work?

 

[MR. BMJ]

For me, it's just too hard until you have them next to each other side-by-side. Even then though, unless they are doing the same exact, identical pose, flexed at the same time, pictures can be deceiving too.

For the Olympia, unless somebody is just really off, you almost have to see them live on stage...imo.

I couldn't tell you who will win...dunno

They all look great in the individual pics though. Obviously Jay's mid-section is growing though.

It appears, from the very few pics I seen, that Wolf's back improved, but i'm gonna have to see him next to the others before I say it improved enough to compensate for the higher lat insertion. His waste is definately a benefit to him for sure though!

LOL>.....just in case....I don't even compete

Take my words with a grain of salt

1. Jason Cutler
2. Wolf
3.Dexter Jackson
4. Phil Heath

I think wolf can top dexter because the O. judges favor size. I think Wolf will be bigger and better, but not enough to beat jay. I think Jay will come in much better shape this year, he has been doing this bodybuilding for over a decade, and he wants to silence to critics that don't believe he deserved it last year. I don't care for his physique, but I admire his persistance, I think I would have given up after being runner up like 4 years in a row lol!!!

 

[BLACKCAT]

I will take a stab at this...

Jay
Dex
Dennis W
Phil
Melvin
Dennis James (I say he beats Toney this time)
Toney
Johnnie Jackson
Gustavo
D. Charles
Dave Henry

and then its kinda up in the air after that

Hey brother, congratulations, i sow your blog, your art is great!!!

many thanks.. I put as much work into my art as you do your physique.. what can I say? I'm motivated.

 

[james001]

very well said!

honestly.. if you were to stand the two guys next to each other its pretty sad. I understand politics are involved in anything... but when you get back down to the fundamentals of mass+shape+condition... how can you not recognize wolf as superior?

IM NOT TRAINED OR EDUCATED IN JUDGING BUT THE LOOK THAT IS APEALING
TO MY EYE IS WOLF OVER CUTLER

I think most would agree with you.

 

[Mbuffguy]

does anyone else think its bullshit that flex mag and BB>com have totally ignored dennis wolf this year

 

[RONJON]

My predictions for top 5 are:
1 Jay
2 Dex
3 Dennis
4 Phil
5 Silvio

ANd if Victor and Kai were in it I would say Victor at 2 again and Kai at 5 ...

I say that the two biggest threats to Cutler ..RIGHT NOW..are Dennis and Victor...both just keep getting better

4/ Phil Heath
5/ Gustavo
6/ Jay
7/ Dave Henry
8/ Melvin

 

[Nssca]

Jay in 6th place? Why so low?

 

[nosmas]

I have not heard that but it is possible. I could see it happen. If he is contemplating retirement then the outcome of this years Olympia will play a huge role in his decision.
