nice to see ron shut a few mouths ....dextor should be top 3.

**palme** · 10-20-2002, 06:22 AM

To the guys that saw it.
Did Tommi do his backflip? How did the crowd react to that?

**Muscular_Mike** · 10-20-2002, 07:58 AM

I THINK GUNTER WAS ROBED OF THE OLYMPIA THIS YEAR, I MEAN DONT GET ME WRONG IT WAS A VERY HARD OLYMPIA THIS YEAR SINCE EVERYONE WAS IN THERE BEST EVER!! BUT GUNTER WAS 300 LBS SHREDED AND PROPORTIONED, HE SHOULDA TOOK IT AWAY. TRIPLE H AND MATARAZZO ALSO MADE THE OLYMPIA MORE ENTERTAINING FOR THE HOME VIEWERS.

**MR PHATT ASS** · 10-20-2002, 08:56 AM

.......$24.95 was worth it.. i thought levrone looked good..kinda suprised that markus didnt make top 5 in a way....but GUNTER is the peoles champ...btw after i watched the scorpion king with the ROCK and that movie was just ok imo

**Antonio** · 10-20-2002, 09:46 AM

What do you think about Paco bautista? Wasn't him in excellent condition?

***Shredz*** · 10-20-2002, 09:50 AM

Got to love that Titus not only beat Kamali but destroyed him...these to hate each other and go head to head all the time...looks good on Kamali IMO now he can shut his trap.

**Antonio** · 10-20-2002, 10:15 AM

any pics of Bautista?

**BostonBobby** · 10-20-2002, 10:19 AM

No way did Coleman deserve that win... I think that it was fixed... I would have givin it to Dexter or Gunther... I like Lee Priest only cause he's small and I think that looks better but the judges don't agree... But I definatly don't think Coleman deserved that win what so ever!!

**williampowers** · 10-20-2002, 11:55 AM

The judges were on crack....
My pick,
1st GUNTHER-LETS FACE IT BOYZ THE MAN CAME 300LB RIPPED AND BALANCED.
2ND- LEVRONE ALWAYS A FAVORITE.
3RD THAT'S THE TOUGH ONE IT'S A TOSS UP BETWEEN DEXTER AND CORMIER.
SORRY COLEMAN THE REIGN IS OVER YOU CAN STEP DOWN

**saboudian** · 10-20-2002, 12:09 PM

any back pose that exists coleman will continue to dominate it, no one can come close to competing with coleman's back

gunther is impressive but remember that next year he has even more work to do with a few key guys like shawn ray returning, i would say next year, guys like preist will not have a chance at making top 6 and possibly never have a chance to make top 6 again, not his fault but 200lbs can't cut it with all the monsters

He is the new comp from Spain right? Had a BAD case of gyno that should have been removed before the show... otherwise he looked REALLY good too.

Good to hear that. I'm also from Spain and of course Paco was my fav. His legs I think are just the best at the pro level; however he has some flaws that he should fix.

**Warrior** · 10-20-2002, 01:21 PM

A comment was made by the guys running the commentaries that he could make a million bucks off his legs alone.

yep... I heard that one...

Ronnie was not robbed... gunter was not close to ronnie... ronnie's FDB pose was amazing... he was hard, dry, and defined... and much more full than gunter... but gunter should have had top 3...

Levrone's legs sucked
Dexter should not have finished 4th... Lee was better IMO

**Warrior** · 10-20-2002, 01:52 PM

When Ronnie did that flapping motion with his lats I thought he was about to fly right out of Mandalay...

He did but it didn't get the crowd going all that much. All Gunter had to do was smile and they were louder

Bautista did look awesome but fuck, his tits were bigger than mine

Ruhl is beyond a freak. Christ, his head gets completely swallowed up by his traps when he does a most muscular. All those pix on the net that people say are morphed...99% of them probably aren't.

**The French Curler** · 10-20-2002, 02:49 PM

I think Levrone looked awesome, possibley could have taken first.

**saboudian** · 10-20-2002, 04:15 PM

i'm already trying to imagine the top six for next year, its gonna be pretty stiff competition

think about it, coleman,levrone,shawn ray,gunter,jackson, cutler, wheeler if he gets back on juice, and ruhl just gets better and better every year, and i almost forgot about cormier

whatever happened to melvin anthony, he's a very creative poser and entertaining to watch. did he take a year off or whats up with him?

**saboudian** · 10-20-2002, 04:25 PM

can someone post some pix of ruhl at the O?

aT 6 2" 300LB'S HOW MUCH FULLER DO YOU WANT AND ALSO IMO TITUS SHOULD HAVE PLACED TOP SIX and what about Badell from P.R he was huge ripped too. Coleman is huge but no change from last year
I and everyone else at the show thought Gunter should have went home with the trophy period. All in all great show these 25 guys's are the best in the world and it was great seeing them ALL in shape....
Another note what the hell, happen to Sabouty that boy got more synthol in bi's and rear delts then greg tarentino(okay exagurating I know) but what happened to Cap'n Rock

**Luke530** · 10-20-2002, 05:04 PM

umm... titus has no chest... he sucked... he should not have placed!

**Tom** · 10-20-2002, 06:50 PM

this can gon on for ever about whol liked who. I thought Flex looked great for taking time off I dodnt expect him to win but I think he should have placed over Lee or cormier. When it came down to the finasl I thought gunther, levrone,and Jackson looked great. IMO Ronnie was beat by all three of them. if jackson could get a little more mass and stay that cut he would be sick. Also Flex still has the most cuts and Def. Ive ever seen Coleman cant be saved much longer. Not with guther, and a man named cutler coming back , plus all the others I think next years will be sick.

**Warrior** · 10-20-2002, 10:57 PM

Next year will be awesome!

Flex had an awesome shape more than he did cuts - calves are not too good though. He is very well developed and... well... round... I guess. I see him and I just think "round". His Delts, Chest, Biceps - everything looks well rounded with shape and not just mass. Flex is an awesome contendar and probably knows more than many of them on training and owns the best natural genetics. However, his health failed and he is unable to take the amount of juice he could before. For that reason he may not have a chance for first place anymore

. Sad, but true... you could see his pain when he left without making the final 6 posedown.

Gunter seems like he would be good PR for bodybuilding... I think if he were to come in next year even better he could win it and be pretty difficult to take down. It's like not giving the Sandow to your best friend

... he just seems like a good guy that has put in a lot of effort latley. When they mentioned him riding in with the car I was thinking the same frickin' thing. He deffinitly stole the show from everyone that placed above him.
