Ronnie looks a little tired and he probably hasn't trained much in the past week. Losing the O was probably a big blow that may have taken some of the wind out of his sails. At his age, he may be reading the writing on the wall and I wonder if he'll bother making another assault on the O next year.
I've said it before, even an older, obviously injured Ronnie is still better than Cutler will ever be. But the IFBB and the judges have spoken and nothing can change that now.
