Damn he's really good for a dude his size height wise. He could definitely use a consultant to teach him to pose better though.
 
I'm calling him for second place. Cutler has said that he will come in heavier and i really dont think that he plays the size game as well as Ruhl.

1-Coleman
2-Ruhl
3-Cutler
4-Jackson
5-James
6-Fedorov
7-Gunter
 
hes so thick. how much is he coming into Mr. O this year? I can't wait for the results

I agree that Jay can not playthe size game well. But Ruhl will not get top 5 and I think Gunter will get 4th

Remember that nobody thought coleman would break the top 5 the year he won his first. Stranger things have happened. Minimum of 3rd place, i bet my socks on it.
 
Nobody seems to be counting in Cormier......heres my prediction:

1: Coleman
2: Cutler (because of politics)
3: Cormier
4: Jackson
5: Gunther

I have an inside track with some in the industry. Politics work both ways. I have been told Cutler will NEVER, EVER win the Olympia. Strait from the mouth of a judge at the show!

Why is that?
 
With the new challenge round, i wouldn't be so sure that you can say who will or who will never win an O. When these guys get to make the calls and get to compare to whoever they want, things can change quickly. Don't be suprised if there is an upset. Other than size, the only thing that Coleman has going for him is a wicked back double bi shot. When it comes to abs/thigh and front lat spread, some of the other can hang in there with him and even best him. I'm interested in seeing how Fedorov makes an impact.

are you kidding? how bout size plus striated glutes..the big thing everyone talk s about is ronnies size..but hes one of the most ripped on stage which is why he wins..the biggest most ripped bodybuilder..

i dont think fedorov is coming to the O
 
While I agree Ronis is always the biggest and in the best shape, I think he looks like shit and would love to see ANYONE beat him.

Wen is the MR. O? Is it going to be televised or available pay per view?

I know it's gonna be on PPV but, your gonna have to check if your satelite/cable provider is going to carry it.
 
Yea DJ always looks good in those photos, but come contest time he resembles Dahreem. I don't know if he's just a bulking bodybuilder and does not know how to get cut or just can't get cut and keep the size, maybe this year he'll dial in better.

Fedorov isnt coming to the "O" and why is everybody counting out Cormier he is definately going to hit top three.

Ronnie "BIG COUNTRY" Coleman is going to be untouchable a the "O" this year especially if he comes in at over 290 this year. I guess Ernie Taylor got into a motorcycle accident and isnt competing this year.

Tons of guys arent competing like Lee Priest, Kevin Levrone (pulled his meniscus) and also Melvin Anthony.

Look out for Victor Martinez to hit the top six too.

This is still my prediction on the top five.

Jenetic, DJ has put on a good 10lbs since last year, but i don't think that he is top 3 material yet. It's going to be another battle of the behemoths again and the only reason that i have Jackson ranked 4th is because he still has the most complete package out there. Another 15lbs and he will grab the Sandow.

Regardless of some of his flaws...I think Markus is one of the most underrated dudes out there....he almost always gets placed too low....if he comes in in peak condition...he SHOULD make top 4 ..but WILL he? Prob . not...politics...

They tend to deduct points for guys with HUGE stomachs, I think that might hurt Ruhl's placing, but for reason, it never hurts Coleman's placing

LOL exactly! Coleman is definitely big but i honestly can't say he's the most shapely. But hey, it's all marketing.
 
im thinking its gonna be like this:

1- coleman
2-james
3-cutler
4-jackson
5-ruhl

james made a huge jump last year, i think he'll keep going up, cutler seems to be sinking, he doesnt seem to happy about his latest results and has lost some motivation i think, dexter is very balanced and i think he'll take 4th, ruhl just doesnt look proportional in my opinion, i was right about last years predictions for the top 5, hopefully ill be right again, btw federov is only 26, not only that but he needs work, his legs are huge though

Dennis James is huge but his placing will be dependent on how dry he comes in looking. He has been known to not come as dry as he should. Just have to wait and see. Cant wait. But as much as everybody talks about Ronnies abs there is no one that is goign to touch him. He just dominates in too many areas for him to lose. Especially if he comes in at over 290.

I see it like this:

1- Coleman
2- Cutler
3- Cormier
4- Dexter
5- Victor
 
Guys...the more i think about it, the less confident i get about my decision to put Coleman in first place. I know that it's been awhile since a reigning Mr. O has been unthroned, but the quality of places 2-8 has never really been this good. So far i've seen at least 4 guys that could possibly upset him. Face it, Ronnie is huge, but he's ugly big. You take someone like DJ who has the size and the symmetry and it could be all over for big Ron. Shawn Ray is back this year and always looks good on stage. Dexter has genetics out the wazoo. I guess it really depends on the judges and what they are looking for this time around.
 
I don't know why...I really am the only guy to have this opinion...but overall, Cutler just has NEVER impressed me as much as he seems to impress everyone else..he is big for sure...but I just do not think he presents as good of an overall package - especially when it comes to that hard, thin-skinned dry as a bone, cut to ribbons, diced look that some of the other guys with comparable size have...I dunno...maybe I'm biased cause the first time I met him...he was none to friendly to me at all LOL....
