Moe El Moussawi, flying in from New Zealand this weekend, is 10 pounds heavier and looking even better than he did for the 2008 Ironman, which he beat Silvio Samuel. Can it happen again?
I say yes.
Silvio Samuel is the favorite for this so (and is Bob Cicherillo's pick), BUT Bob and others are underestimating Moe Moussawi. I just saw some picks, and the guy looks great, and if he comes in shredded and hard like he did at last years Ironman, he will take this show over Silvio.
At the 2008 Olympia, I picked Moe for the top 10, and he landed in 9th place. He looked great, but could of looked better there, due to some family complications (his young daughter a few days before the show, and his mind was on this). This time, Moe will be ready, and at the end of the night, Silvio might just wonder what happened?
Not to say that Silvio might not come in incredible shape, but never underestimate Moe.
As for Eddie Abbew, don't count him out also from the top five. We always forget about Eddie, but he just may surprise us all, like he did a few years ago.
Mohammad Bannout is Samir Bannout's cousin, and it will be cool to see what he brings from Lebanon.
AD Cherry, which faltered in his first year as a pro, should and has made considerable and noticable differences, and will surprise us all.
Mark Dugdale, not sure on Mark - for a smaller competitor, Mark can come up strong or not, and with his demanding family lifestyle, I am never sure on what shape he will come in. I hope to see him in the top 5!
Ronny Rockel, always strong in the lineup, and usually looks great!
and Hidetada Yamagishi, training under Milos, who knows how to bring him to his best, and likely qualify for the Olympia here.
-
Ron I heard Hidetada Yamagishi and Milos had a falling out. I heard Hidetada Yamagishi, is now training with Charles Glass, at Venice Golds
-
I have moe and rockel in top place.
-
Moe beat Silvio at this show last year but Sil beat him at the Arnold and the Olympia.
I have Moe winning due to the added size he has over Sil. There are two week out photos of Moe in my preview on bodybuilding.com

How is anyone underestimating Moe? (I havent even mentioned Moe)....
I make a call based on past performance, head to head match-ups/ etc....based on what I saw at the Olympia, I give Silvio the nod....Moe will certainly have a shot at the title, and will certainly place in the top 5...especially with added improvement.
-
wow, i thought there would be "big names" competing in the ironman, I guess not
well, Moe will win, that's for certain
-
From what I hear, people think Silvio will win with no problem at all at the Ironman. They forget quickly that Moe BEAT Silvio last year at this show.
Then again, not that Silvio isnt a great bodybuilder. Silvio placed 7th at the Olympia, Moe placed 9th.
I like the Ironman because there are always surprises, always some new person that starts the pro bodybuilding season with a bang after the Holidays.

Apparently you Bob.
You made the comment yesterday... "Might as well sign the check over to Silvio right now....wouldve liked to see a better line-up, but the timing of the show pretty much made that an impossability"
You calls are fading faster than your hairline.

By not even mentioning Moe, you ARE underestimating him. DUCY?

What kind of stupid rationale is that?
It's a prediction, a educated guess...doesn't mean you're underestimating anyone else....being that Silvio has placed ahead of Moe the last 2 matchups, and the idea that Silvio could have easily been higher at the lympia....He's my pick to win. Can Moe win it and beat Silvio...? Sure...thats why they play the game.
Guess we'll all be "underestimating" whoever we don't pick for the Superbowl this year, right.?

hide is looking better than ever!!

I'm usually in agreement w you Bob, but I think you're missing the point. Picking a winner without discussing the competition is not a very thorough analysis. And that's what you've done when you don't even mention Moe, or Dugdale for that matter.
But you see these guys all the time, so you could know a lot that we don't...
-
And the competition and breakdown WILL be discussed......
THIS MONDAY.... ON PRO BODYBUILDING WEEKLY!!!

Bob's top five for the Ironman - Monday night on PBW. And make sure Dan is different than yours.
I will put mine up, Isaac put his up, and others will...
May the best predictor win!

People can say what they want.
But Lee Priest is still the IRONMAN.
-
speaking of Lee, i thought he was making a comeback at his show "the Ironman".
Lee looked great at the 2002 Ironman..
-
Silvio or Moe......
what a boring show.. :-\

Since he is in Australia, the Australian Pro will be is 2009 debut. Whether he will qualify for the Olympia there will be interesting? Does he still have it...

Yeah sorry dude, I get all my bodybuilding related news from Getbig, about 10 mins a day. I'm sure it's an interesting program but I'm not a listener.
-
Priest will Win the Aussie Pro show just ask the Judges and CC. :-\
-

Yep! Sounds good to me!
-
Moe = 8)
-
Lee Priest will crush all haters in the Aussie Pro this year. Hopefully he will not lose points for face tattoos.

NewsflashLee could come in hairy,fat with no tan and still win the AP....just saying 8)
-
got a dollar in it...any takers?
-
How's the prep going moe?
-
would be great to see some new blood win... but rarely does lightning strike twice. it'll be a shock if he manages to find the same combo that worked 4-5 months ago. ya never know though.

that's the easiest thing actually.
If you got in awesome shape once, you know what to do to make it happen again

then what's gustavo waiting for?

then what's gustavo waiting for?
that's another story.
it's also easy to fuck your physique for good with the wrong drugs trying to be a mass monster.
if you make slow steady progress and keep yourself lean in the off-season, it's easy to get back in the same shape.
Moe will be in shape

Except for that Olympia where he showed up with the long hair, bad tan, fat, watery, etc
-
i wonder if lee will place good with his ridiculous back tattoo
-
theres a schome in this thread who hasnt touched a dumbell in his lifetime
-
He only placed lower than he deserved because he is not a household name...this year may differ if he comes in better (if possible) condition.
