It's almost time, here are my predictions.

How I think the placings will be.
1. Kai
2. Jay
3. Victor
4. Dexter
5. Phil
6. Wolf

How I think the placings should be.
1. Kai
2. Victor
3. Heath
4. Wolf
5. Dexter
6. Jay

[spritz0]

I'm with KAI as well!!

[Voodo]

I think the placings should be.
1. victor
2. kai
3. jay
4. Heath
5. wolf
6. dexter

[HawaiianPride.]

Kai will be number 1 if he brings this same condition. The rest of the placings I can't really say, the competition this year is nuts.

[F-111]

1. Kai
2. Jay
3. Dexter
4. Phil
5. Dennis
6. Victor

Can't say I like those placings but thats how I think it will happen.

[HawaiianPride.]

I really hope Dennis gets top 3 this year. Seeing Phil in there as well would be sick.

[Gorilla]

KAI OR DEXTER
PHIL IS BETTER THEN VICTOR
JAY..........HAVE NO IDIA TIME WILL SHOW I THINK HE WILL SURPRISE US BUT WE WILL SEE

but i would like to see heath in the top 5 mix
jay out, heath in!

[Buffet]

Is everyone discounting Ronnie? What about Branch Warren? and Tony Freeman?

[HawaiianPride.]

Ronnie? lol.

I doubt Branch and Freeman will top 6 this year.

[Buffet]

Hawiian, as to your quote by Henry Rollins, truer words were never spoken. As far as discounting Ronnie and Branch, I wouldn't be so sure. Nothing stands between Ronnie and another sandow but ability to get motivated again.

Coleman won't be back until 2010. He said this in a radio talk show on another forum. Branch is one my favorites, but lately the judges have gone not for size, but condition and symmetry. Branch has condition, he proved that at the Arnold this year, but he lacks the symmetry the judges are looking for. It's sad, but it's the truth. Dex and Kai are perfect examples of what they are looking for now. But Kai at the Arnold IMO looked better then Dex at the 08' Olympia. That's why I think Kai will take it this year.

[Buffet]

Kai seems to possess few, if any weaknesses. I really like what I've read about him as a person, his attitude, and his phiosophy on life as well. Thanks for the 411 on Ronnie man.

[HawaiianPride.]

No problem. He's a good guy. It's great how he's such a success now, coming from literally being a bum in his teenage years. The guy will do some damage this year no doubt.

[Buffet]

He'd make a great champion, as well as a great ambassador for the sport. God knows, we need all we can get. I enjoy how much they're showcasing him in MD.

[GeorgeT]

I don't like Dexter at all, i was very unhappy to see him win, i can't wait to see him get dethroned. Branch is really under rated, he's a great guy.

[cutlerfan]

jay. heath. dex. kai. victor. wolf. if cutler comes in shape he has one more left in him.

[DaGunShow]

I agree that Branch is underated

Ruhl amazes me the most!

I'd bet money on Kai Green though, Killer posing routine

There's your new Mr. O guest posing at the Colorado State Bodybuilding show.





As for me, I have no predictions for the top 5. This Olympia is going to be unpredictable, everyone looks freaking great. It all just matters who brings in the best package that day. It can go any way to who wins whether it be Vic, Kai, Phil, Dex, and maybe even Jay.
The rest of my predictions, I'm feeling Branch Warren and Dennis Wolf for 6th and 7th place, either of them being 6th or 7th depending who comes in better, then Toney Freeman for 8th, Melvin Anthony for 9th, and for 10th could be Dennis James.

It's kind of a bold statement if you ask me to say phil is better then vic...He definately has a shot at the o, but still it's a very bold statement. Where's silvio !

[HawaiianPride.]

If he's isn't better then Vic then he's just up to par with him this year, I believe he will be competing 10 solid pounds heavier on stage this year. He'll probably be the best he's ever been on an O stage this time.

[james69]

kai is definetly the one to beat ........just dont sleep on dex he's been hitting it super hard mainly to prove everybody wrong about him being a 1 hit number, then theirs jay think this might be his last shot to regain his title he's been hitting hard as well with phil.

I'm not saying anyone is better than anyone. I think the top 5 can go to anyone, it's just a matter of who comes in the best conditioning.
Knew I forgot someone. I'd put Silvio ahead of DJ.

Oh and let's not forget last year's ASC, Dex won that against Phil and Kai. Phil got second on that and then came Kai. Then we have this year's ASC and Kai beat Vic. If Kai beat Vic, surely Phil could beat him as well. And Phil is only improving from here on out.
Then let's recap on the 07 Olympia where Vic arguably placed second to Jay and ahead of Dex.
What am I trying to say? The olympia can go to anyone.
Personally, I want either Kai or Phil to win, I'd love to see either of them being Mr. O.

[Buffet]

All I can say for sure is who it WON'T be - Me. LOL.
