Title: 2017 Olympia - Big Ramy has reached his peak
Post by: Pet shop boys on September 18, 2017, 05:11:22 AM
If he didn't win it this year in the kind of condition he was, he never will..... unless Bonak (sp?) and Phil are out of the picture .

No Guru can do a miracle unless he wants to risk his health even further.... and still, that's his genetics

I wouldn't mind seeing him taking the sandow from Phil sat night the way he looked ..... but that's another story


WoooSHHHHHH   BE YE KE

Maybe, but we will have to assume Ramy will keep that same condition/size  for the next 4 years .....

You could say Jay finally ended up catching Ronnie , but Ronnie was 9 years older than Jay !

I think he can get better. In his lower body, specifically. I know it sounds crazy cause his quads are insanely big, but his hamstrings need a better drop and way more separation in the quads. I think if he can bring out the quad feathering and separation, get bigger hamstrings and dry out like he did last year with Aceto, he will win.

I wonder if he sacrificed a few pounds to coming in even harder?...he could easily come in twenty pounds lighter and still dwarf Heath. Will he have an epiphany such as Kai's and realize the futility of involving himself any further in such a corrupt sham of a "contest"?

Perhaps the Arnold will overshadow the O over the next few years as social media exposes how fixed the O really is. I can see how in times past it was all too easy to get away with the fixed contests but in the information age even lay people are able to quickly search and see photos that don't support Phil's "win" and read about his narrow clavicles and dangling belly growth.

Kai realized that Weinberger was crooked and never looked back, now he's in movies and making bank far and above "Mr. Olympia" , appearing on television shows, signing with Yates's new League....realizing that the Olympia fraud was a waste of his time and energy has worked out quite well for Kai.

This photo may not say it all...but it says a lot.  :o

One clear thing that Phil has over Big Ramy is conditioning.  Aside from that, I would say he has a better rear lat spread, and better hamstrings.  If Big Ramy improves in those areas, he may be able to beat Phil, but until that day, I think it will go to Phil over Ramy any time they compete against one another.

It's amazing that it seems to come down to the back.
What about being destroyed from the front.  I'm not seeing this superiority in overall conditioning either. Phil looks smooth and glossy in the entire chest and gut area.

Phil is probably my height - 5'85", or a lying 5'9.  Big Ramy is a legit 5'10 as lightweight said, which is very tall for a bodybuilder.  Oh, and I forgot to add this to my previous post:

What on earth gives you that idea? Has he been on any mainstream TV shows or ads? Cos I haven't seen any. The closest he's come to an acting gig is rehearsing with other nobodies who couldnt act on Generation Iron. Where he sucked IMMENSELY.

Please show me one thing Kai did this year that got him a  half a million dollar pay check.

As seen in GI, Phil lives like a king compared to Kai.

Sort of. Bonac is maxed out as well, he won't ever improve from this. For a lot of guys its just a standstill, waiting for other people to fade due to age/get injured.

This!

So many guys harp on about beating thier last outing, but how many of them actually make noticable improvements from show to show these days?

I can pretty much guess how/what everyone will look like before they turn up.

ramy is bigger and more aesthetic than lil phillipe.

phil's midsection is destroyed from the palumboism. he has no chest and extremely narrow clavicles. he's overdoing the site injects on the delts now as well (probably to make up for the lack of natural shoulder width).

ramy is nearly 2 heaths wide

With all due respect, if Ramy did exactly as you suggest, cynic that I am, I don't think he'd win.  I think Jim Manion and Steve Weinberger simply don't want him as Mr Olympia.  The only way they'd let him win is if Phil drops out and everyone else looks unusually awful.

I think ramy looked best when he won the NY pro

unfortunately palumboism is setting in his abs and arms- arms look smaller

he kills Phil in RLS!

You might be right. But my point is he CAN get better from where he's at and where he's been. Its a matter of time, I think.

He needs to drop at least 10 pounds, but Bader prob wouldn't allow that.

Post by: Never1AShow on September 21, 2017, 06:06:23 AM
There is a point where size should overcome conditioning, especially if the bigger guy is in shape but just a few percentage points less conditioned.  Focusing on someone being a small slight bit leaner or harder only makes sense when all other things are equal, which they are not with Ramy and Phil.

Plus Phil's smooth gut and quauto midsection twin bursting out should be marked down.

Same thing happened with Dorian and Nasser in 96 and 97. All Dorian had going for himself by then was conditioning and a back, which was enough to beat out Nasser and far more complete guys like Shawn Ray, who like Bonac was a few inches shorter than the rest. Nothing has changed in 20 years.

WoooSHHHHHH   BE YE KE

He supposedly weighed in at 295, if thats true he lost because he hardness. Although separated, he was still a bit smooth compared to Heath and Bonac even Dexter for that matter. He placed second (IMO) on having a near flawless physique and being huge. Again, IMO, he and his handlers focused more on size and being 'Big Ramy" other than being "Big shredded Ramy". He comes down another 10-12lbs and no one would touch him. If he continues coming in this shape, Phil will win his 8th.

the ifbb heads are a bit clueless. hardcore bodybuilding is dead in the usa. handing it to phil (despite his piss poor physique) does nothing to progress the "sport" and he's not a good ambassador, quite a prick actually. if they gave it to the rightful mr olympia i.e. big ramy, the popularity of bodybuilding would explode (no pun intended) in the middle east and asia.

phil was better conditioned, but completely out muscled by ramy

ronnie was bigger and less conditioned than Mr. Levrone, he even had a gut like phil but unlike ramy

so how does phil win but Mr. Levrone lose?

Ramy needs to refine what he has and stay light in the offseason.

Heath is firmly in stage 1 palumboism.
