It is very possible he'll do it, but only because of a mediocre field of competitors....none of them have the formula to best him
Cedric won't do it soon because he is yet to better his conditioning from the year he won his pro card...Ramy is going to have to lose muscle to get absolutely diced by the looks of the way his body works and I can't see him doing that if he's constantly being pushed with his- "Big" moniker. Shawn is getting older and he just hasn't got the back to compete with Phil as great as some of his shots are....Dennis is now a shadow of his former self...Dexter used to be bigger and better than Phil...those days are long gone...Kuclo just can't get conditioned enough...This Bonac fella looks maxed out to me and well conditioned, the judges seem to be purposely overlooking him...
The only one who has a legitimate chance is Ramy IMO. Phil's thing is his separation, that's what makes him look 20 pounds heavier than he is. Ramy doesn't have that, but if he focused on being as dry as he physically can, like Dorian, who would actually aim on being slightly flat just to increase hardness, the combination of huge bodyparts, proportions and extreme hardness would edge out Phil's gift for separation. Ramy might instead actually look like he weighs 320 if he comes in at 280ish dry as a bone.
