Victor was qualified, but he isnt competing. Not sure what you mean?  He was injured...

Same with Kai and Branch.... and of course Ronnie Coleman isnt competing, so that makes 19 competitors.

The Great Ronaldos list..............

Dude, that is the order, in which they qualified for the Olympia.

I agree with Jay in 1st, all the way but I feel Melvin could beat a lot of guys , if he comes in hard. he could be a big surprise as could Toney Freeman who I think is solid top 6 material.

Dex will be there no doubt, but hard to say where he will land. Ripped and full he could push Jay hard.

phil heath should be mandatory required to place dead last at his first O by 'paying his dues' just like ronnie and dennis wolf had to do.

but for some reason he wont.  it seems the 'paying your dues' rule does not apply to heath.  doesnt sound fair to me
Title: Re: Olympia - Ron Avidan's Predictions for the Mr. O
Post by: boonstack on September 18, 2008, 08:35:27 PM
Dex is in front oh phil simply because he has paid his dues many years. Heath delivers a package that is just as good as dexters if not better.

"No respect for Gustavo. Gustavo is the one that we usually forget about, but he always seems to come back and remind us why he is always a very competitive bodybuilder, especially when it comes to the Olympia stage. Once again, Gustavo will come in shape, albeit larger physique, but will not make it in the coveted top six again this year."

I dont care what color they are.  I took my 19 fortune cookies out, and threw them all in a Orange Chicken Container after it was cleaned out.  Then picked them out one by one, and that is what the spirits said.  I may be right, I may be wrong...

5.Silvio
6.Melvin
7.Toney
8.David Henry
9.Dennis James

I think 6-10 are all interchangeable depending on condition, but if everyone show up at 100%(or near best) this is how it will look.

Hmm... Dennis Wolf is in Arizona, tomorrow he will be at Troy Alve's new nutrition store, which is right next to Gold's.  Will this have an affect on his training, and move him down a notch, or will it just rev him up even more.

Dennis James will be there too, as well as David Henry.

I see you have back out of placing Dennis as first Ron. How dare you tuck tail and run from your true predictions. Remember, the show is placed as you call it. I suggest you bring Mr. Wolfe back to the top. He will be the best he has ever looked. I assure you.

The man can come in good condition with wicked hams, etc. However he has let his waost line get out of control the last few outinhs and may be burned at the O as a result

Well, after seeing some pictures of Jay Cutler, looking at his all time best, Dennis Wolf should be right there, but place second.

Now, of course, Dexter Jackson and Phil Heath both feels that Dennis Wolf will be 4th.... and put Melvin into the mix, who probably feels that Phil Heath won't beat him, making Dennis in 5th place.

But both LT and Isaac don't have Dennis in their top two...

Here are Lonnie Teper's Top Six Predictions

Okay, we’re five days away from the Big Dance in Las Vegas. And, as I’ve been saying for months, the show that Jay Cutler will dominate en route to his third straight Mr. Olympia crown. If you haven’t seen “The Experts” video on the site regarding our Mr. O picks (have you been hiding under a rock for the past month?), I’ll tell ya how it’s gonna turn out , one through six.

1. Jay Cutler. Two big, too wide and too focused after hearing all the talk (especially from me) about how off he was last year, and how fortunate he was to nab that second Sandow. Cutler has been looking crazy in recent weeks, dialed in and vascular to boot, so it’s safe to say the Swami nails it again. Look for the hometown hero to show up at a conditioned 265 pounds on his 5′9″ frame.

2. Dexter Jackson. The Blade is always in great condition, and I expect nothing less this time around from the Jacksonville, Florida resident. He swears he’ll be 237 pounds (at 5′6″) and insists he was 233 when he won the Arnold earlier in the year. Hogwash. I’ll give Dex 225 on a high carb day, but no matter. The guy is spectacular and has the inside track on the runner-up slot. Even though he told me at the USA the title is his, period.

3. Dennis Wolf. This is one big, bad boy. At 5′11″ and 260 pounds, the freaky German is always in great shape and, after winning the People’s Choice award at last season’s O from the online voters at Bodybuilding.com, Wolf is coming in with a lot more attention from the media, and the fans, in 2008. Wide as an airplane hanger, Wolf has a powerful, yet aesthetic physique that can actually push Jackson out of second if Dex isn’ at the top of his game.

4. Phil Heath. This cat is bad. Don’t believe me? Then check out the pics from this year’s IRON MAN Pro. At 5′9″ and about 235 pounds, The Gift has the best guns in the sport, and the rest of him ain’t chopped liver, either. Like his calves, quads and hams for starters. The youngest guy in the line-up at 28, the Denver Nugget is good enough to move up a slot or two, for sure. Should be a great battle for second between Jackson, Wolf and Heath.

5. Melvin Anthony. Perhaps my favorite bodybuilder, when you take presentation into account. I didn’t give him the moniker “Marveous” back in 1994 for nothing. Smallest waist in the game among guys over 230 pounds and I don’t need to talk about his unmatched posing abilities. Coming off a big win in Atlantic City two weeks ago; if Melvin can tighten up another 10 per cent, it’s not crazy to think he might do battle with the above mentioned folks for a higher placing.

6. Silveo Samuel. The most consistant bodybuilder in the world. How Silveo comes in top shape, show in and show out, is remarkable. Saw him at the Tournament of Champions last night, but didn’t let him take off the shirt during the event. Folks will either have to buy a ticket to the show, or watch the webcast (free, on bodybuilding.com, with lead commentator Dan Solomon) to see another prime time showing for this Nigerian born athlete.

There you have it fans. The crystal ball is clear for first, a bit fogged up for the next few slots. See ya in ‘Vegas in a few.
