Title: TONEY FREEMAN - Olympia Upset ?????
Post by: Ex Coelis on July 04, 2009, 01:56:16 PM
Toney is a big dude with plenty of height and size, not to mention that "x-frame" everyone seems to love

he looked great on last year's Olympia dvd but not so much in the comparison pictures - I'd give him as high as 4th in 2009

At age 43, that is extremely impressive!

Ronnie came 4th in 2007 at age 43.

Toney proves that being tall is no excuse for having weak legs  :o

If his conditioning is good then he should place top three, though the judges will undoubtably screw him over again.

he could only deserve topp 3 if alot of guys came out of shape. kai green, phil heath, jay , dexter, victor, wolf..... all should place ahead of him if they come in good shape.

True but I would only put Heath, Victor and Kai ahead of him. I'm just not a big fan of Dexter or Cutler, and Wolf is a big question mark for me since he's gotten worse instead of making improvements, so I'll be curious to see if the advice of his guru's pays off this time.

do you think he'd actually bother entering if he KNEW he was gonna be 4th?

Probably the most symmetrical guy in the O, however I dont think he'll get a fair deal. Maybe top 5.

ALL DEPEND ON THE JUDGES, HE IS GREAT, AND AGREE MIGHT BE TOP 5 OR MAY BE TOP 3 ALL IT DEPEND HOW HE POSE, AND KEEP SHARP AND CUTS.

He's my favorite to take "best eyebrows in show".

His posing routine blows, although the judges don't seem to mind.

He seems to have the kind of size where to get the right condition he risks coming in flat. And with his height and relative lack of thickness he needs all the fullness he can get. I thought he looked better than Wolf at the last O.
