I have judged alot of shows.The judges, or Ropeman should have said something to Phil, about his bumping and crowding Phil.I think they said it once.
This incident could have been prevented.
The judges should have said Phil if you keep crowding Kai you will be docked a point or dont crowd Kai, its un sportsman like conduct.
When your on stage your dieted down,If you dieted hard, your lathargic at times, because your body fat is so low.Plus your adrenaline is going 1000 mph, because you just got pumped.Your on that stage, and your fired up.The last you need is someone bumping into you on purpose.
Its not cool, it shows desperation and unsportsman like conduct.
Plus these guys, had to be at and expo, walking around signed autographs and taking pictures.
Which is exhausting.working expos suck.lol
The days are long, your feet are tired, and your getting asked all kinds of questions.
Granted most of these guys were sitting down but still .
Most of them are 3-4% bodyfat, they cant drink alot of fluids unless, they are an amazing diuretic.
They just dieted, trained and did cardio for 12 weeks.
Now they got to deal with the fans, who can be weird, nice ,bitter, bizzare stupid, or just insane.
You just never know.at expos, who or what you will run into.I seen a girl a couple years ago.Walking a guy around with a leash.They guy was wearing skimpy daisy dukes, and a woens sports bra.
It was creepy, to say the least
The bottom line is this Phil,the judges or Ropeman should have stopped Phil heath when he was playing his little game.
The guy seems to think he is above the sport.Stepping aobve the line last year.Now crowding Kai.
I know Kai, he is a very calm cool ,and nice guy.Very calm cool and collected.
I think 99% of all competitors would have done the same thing in guys situation.
Kai probably said to him, quit fu3$# crowding me
