Think he can repeat?

Can he, of course. Should he, I don’t know. I’ve read there are a lot of politics involved.

Honestly, I think he wont. Big Ramy, Kai, or even Shawn Rhoden might take it.

I’d be glad to see either of them take it. I kind of want Kai, but that stems more from that I actually thought he looked better than Phil last year. Actually, I think multiple people did.

During the prejudging, I think Kai Greene looked better than Phil Heath. Phil seemed to be fading. It did not help they got separated and Phil didn’t have to stand next to Kia that long.

(I read a theory that the judges let Phil step in front of the line. But I dont know enough about what is legal to know if that holds true. I guess it supposed to make Phil look bigger.)

But mainly, I like Kai Greene as a person. Or I should say, I like the person who he is in public. He has this Monk/Intellectual quality to him, and I find that fascinating.

I think you are right, they could take it. Heck, Big Ramy, and Shawn Rhoden both have a great shot. Personally, I like Rhoden’s physique the best. He has a refined look to me.

I think even Big Ramy even looks better than Phil at 2014. In the image below, Big Ramy has a better midsection than Phil, way better. Yet, he placed 7th.

And Rhoden, I would have probably pegged him the winner if I was a judge.

Heath delivered the full package, Ramy's legs are out of proportion and if that's how Rhodden went on stage I'm surprised that he made top 10!

Winning the Olympia depends on how far up Weiders ass you are, if you're nothing to do with Weider you have no chance, if you say something against Weider you have no chance (doesn't matter how good you look)
Simple as that.

I'd have to agree with that.
