Why is HUGE Nasser El-Sonbaty not on the list? Clearly he could take that weak field without even prepping for the show!
-
third name down Robbie. 8) You need some sleep mang.

I think he's worried about Ken Jones upstaging him.

Are you mocking the great Nasser El Sonbaty, photo-boy? You're playing with fire, you are! >:(

Who's sponsoring "King" Kamali's prep & trip amongst the "west coast sissies" (his words not mine)?

Dude have you seen the threads the great Ken Jones sports? No one can match him!

You got that right. Can Phil peak two weeks in a row like that? I don't see any names on that list that should beat him. Freeman maybe. But if Heath is anything near as wide as he was in those gust posing pics, he's gonna make freeman look skinny.

Did you just use "Heath" and "wide" in the same sentence?
Go to bed ::) ...

Phil Heath is so good, he'll take first AND second place.
-
good to see Alves throwing his name in - his physique is one of the few I'd hazard describing as "beautiful"

-
Troy Brown is from uk not canada.
-
Who's sponsoring "King" Kamali's prep & trip amongst the "west coast sissies" (his words not mine)?
His wife.
-
Anyone know where Denis Sergovskiy got his pro card?
-
Add Desmond Miller to this list.
http://www.getbig.com/headlines
I believe Will Harris will also be competing. This is shaping up to be one of the best IRONMAN line ups.
-
Denis Sergovskiy out of the IRONMAN - http://www.getbig.com/headlines
-
Heath, Freeman, Alves, Samual, Harris, Henry, Miller, Baddell, Scholz
this is going to be a VERY close contest
-

what is the prize $ for this one? 15k? 20k?

This is a great lineup for the only Southern California Pro Bodybuilding event of the year! It is time to finally come and check out the show, this year at the Los Angeles Convention Center. We will see you there. And predictions will come soon about who is going to win the show... and it won't be Phil Heath!
-
Heath will win the show, he is the FUTURE ...look at the clip from one week out of the Arnold where he trains back....re dic you lous

Are you going to wait until the day of the show again to make your predictions? Tell me oh clueless one who will beat Phil in this show.
-
Unless Toney brings it 100% with improvements NOBODY is going to beat Phil especially with whats looks like 10-15 extra bounds of muscle. I think we saw the best of Gustavo in 2005.

I agree totally except for maybe flipping between 4 and 5. Gustavo needs to hook back with Milos like when he was 3rd in Olympia.
-
Too bad the Texas tornado isnt going to be there. imagine Him, kamali, and greene on one stage.
-

We can't rule out Desmond Miller, Troy Alves and Will Harris for one of those qualifying spots. Definitely the deepest line up for the Ironman.

I didn't know about those three going in. Gotta revamp my predictions.
1. Heath (all but 100% sure)
2. Freeman (needs to get back with Palumbo and nail the conditioning like last year but with more mass)
3. Gustavo (Call Milos now)
4. Miller (Come in ripped like the Nationals with more back width and he might move up)
5. Samuel (Could be as high as 3rd and he is always on point)
6. Harris (Come in like in precontest photos and no Prince routine ;D )
4 and 5 can flip flop and I have Henry out of the top 6 because it looks to be a big man's show at this Ironman. My wildcard is definitely Armin Scholz. That guy is a freak and if he can look on stage like he does in the precontest shots look out. Troy is awesome but the glutes and hams are never where the judges want them and in this deep lineup you have to be 100%
-
Don't look now but you may need to revise those predictions again. Johnny Jackson has been added to the line up!

This may be the best ironman lineup ever.
Very very deep show.
Come at 100% or dont come at all should be the motto of this show.
-
I saw Phil Heath in person last October here in Phx at a Max Muscle event. He was about 265 lbs and looked great. Held that weight nicely and was leaner than you might think!!
Might be a deep show, but it is his to lose.
