Kamali is turning BB into the friggin' WWF. He belongs in the ring with the rest of those overgrown juvenile neadethals! Tool.
Big up to my man Kevin Levrone.
I just watched the 2000 Olympia yesterday. There is no way that Kamali will crack the top 5. There is too much experience there for him to beat. The only person to ever enter his first Olympia and cause a stir like that was Dorian in his first Olympia in 1991 when he finished 2nd to Haney. There is no way in hell that Kamali could do that.
I'm sure Kamali is nice to your face when you meet him, but he doesn't talk very highly of his competitors. He has no respect for anyone.
To comment back to Jeff_rys, Joe Weider knew that Arnold was up and coming so again politics took into play and Arnold won the show and dethrowned Sergio. Mike Mentzer was never a Mr. Olympia! Much respect to Mike but he never won THE show. Not sure where you are finding your data. In 1980 he dethrowned Frank Zane and Arnold has already built a rep that anytime he walked into the Olympia, he won.
Look at this sport now, when Lee Haney won 8 years straight, did anyone beat him? NO. Lee retired, Dorian won. No one ever beat Dorian. Then Dorian retired and Ronnie won since then. No one is going to beat Ronnie because it is unbeatable. That man has more mass on his body than anybody in this world!!!
alot of interesting input here, bros but, imo..... mark ruhl is hands down the most overlooked pro bb today. he should be in the top 10, for sure. anyone disagree?
You're right. Markus Ruehl is one of the most underrated pros today. He is one of the most f...ing hardcore bodybuilders I've seen. He is a monster in person. He is one of my favorites also. I would hate to get my ass kicked by him if I was one of the judges. His reaction to his placing scares the shit out of me.
