Haven't watched the video, but Urs recently beat guys who probably wouldn't have been top 10 let alone top 6 at the O, so it's still unlikely he'd be competitive against the top guys. In that sense he would be better off skipping this year and growing and refining for next year.

But bodybuilding still probably has the "paid his dues" bullshit, so he might as well go to the O this year and get that out of the way.

Usually he is right. It is hopeful that he didn't say that he should have retired/stay in classic, which is what I was expecting.

Good advice. I think he should take it.

If I was Urs I'd skip the Olympia and focus on one of the 3rd tier shows afterwards to immedeately get a qualification for next year. If he could do a proper Off-season focusing solely on the Olympia next year he'd be a title contender at the rate the kid is growing.

Ha ha I forgot about that and he was right

The one thing I like about Ray is he doesn’t sugar coat anything

Unlike some of these other clowns

Why would he skip? Even if he gets a top 10 placing it is good for him he will never be a top contender with that back anyway.

he came in smooth and bloated
