That's pretty decent prize money for the top guys. I looked at the final call out photos, and I don't think the win is too controversial. Rhoden looks weaker from the back, particularly his lower back, and Wolf has absolutely no calves. As much as I like the guy, I just don't think you should be able to win without at least token calves. Dexter looked great as always.

This is the first Olympia that I honestly couldn't care less about... I think Phil Heath is a lousy representative of the sport, but yes he has an amazing physique. I want to see pics of how Branch and Victor looked though.

Heath and Jackson are a good 1 & 2.

The look both these guys have just from the front, shoulders, traps, chest and arms are nothing short of fantastic.

Rhoden's got that look but Jackson was dialed in better. Good to see him still one of the top pros after all this time.

YAWN.

Also the prize money doesn't seem too great considering all but the top 3 probably spent more on prep than they won.

Ha, ha, you must be new to all of this.

If it was about the money, they would be doing something else.

Good for Phil. But honestly pro BBing is doing itself in. All the politics are ruining it. I bet we can name the 2016 Mr O winner if Phil competes next year.

your not taking into account the 100's of thousand that will be made in endorsements


this was the worst competition I've seen in all my time... especially considering that this was a monumental year for the Oly.

I agree. I hate to sound like an old bastard but the quality of competitors has really gone way down since the days of Wheeler, Yates, Coleman, Levrone, etc. Professional bodybuilding really sucks now.

On a side note, huge respect for Dexter Jackson... guy has been at it a long ass time and is still making improvements to his physique.

Not sure if I am reading this post correctly. Could you please explain

"History was made at the Mr. Olympia competition on Saturday night. For the fifth consecutive year,"

Lee Haney had 8 consecutive Mr Olympia Crowns earning the last one in 1991.

States that in 2005 Ronnie Coleman tied Lee Haney's record 8 consecutive Mr Olympia wins. Making him the second person to achieve this feat.

Reading your post I wasn't sure if I missed anything so thought I'd ask. (Of course if you meant that Phil has now tied Ronnie for 5 consecutive wins...I can see that as history..speculating that he is in the same arena as both Lee and Ronnie.)
