How will Ronnie handle his loss?

[EbBnFlO]

i feel ron will stay in it as long as there is some sort of payday.once the cheques stop rolling in maybe he will consider quitting

[D_1000]

I think Ronnie lost a lot of fans with his behavior after last year's loos- I just hope he learned his lesson and is more gracious this time around.  There's no reason to taint his legacy with sour grapes.

Hmmm. Have you seen Cutler's "One Step Closer" after losing the 2005 Mr. Olympia? The only words he could say was to repeat "bullshit" over and over again.

Well since he has lost 5 times in a year he should handle it pretty good

He looks like a giant chocolate pudding in that pic...

Personally, I see Ronnie storming off the stage and then going on PBW the very Monday following the "O" and melting down there, live and on the air.


EDIT: Imagine (or not) Ronnie pulling a "Hulk" and tearing his g-string and going ape shit at the "O".....

"ya'lls wont lyke me win eyes bee angree!"

I'm convinced Ronnie has a bunch of people around him who tell him what he wants to hear.  Remember when they ran that article in flex a couple of years ago and they asked them about the gut stuff?  Ronnie was like "well that don't apply to me".  then when he was asked about his injuries he was like "I don't have no injuries".  chad's been running around mayhem complaining about all these problems jay has with his right side-I think it's his right side and everytime anyone asks him about Ronnies problems it gets no response.  Ronnie was a great BB, no question about it but I think his time has passed, he's a mess right now IMO.  I think Jay's gonna crush him but that's just one white man's opinion.

Good post.


Ronnie had his reign. And at his best, was unbeatable.....but that time has passed...

I say Ronnie will not drop below 2nd because if you look at the scores form last year when Victor was argueably at his best Ronnie still had a 28 pt. lead even when he was a bit off. If Ronnie improves this year (which I think he will), Jay may be the closest to him.

Place Name Country 1+2 3 4 Total
1 Jay Cutler USA 12 5 5 22
2 Ronnie Coleman USA 18 10 10 38
3 Victor Martinez Dominican Republic  34 16 16 66
4 Dexter Jackson USA 36 20 19 75
5 Melvin Anthony USA 50 25 26 101

If Ron loses...he'll rejoin the police force and arrest jay for illegal drug possession with intent to distribute (based on the large amounts of course) 

he will first confiscate Jay's fridge and use it as his own

On the set of Ghostbusters IV.

Ronnie always looks this way offseason but each time he brings it on contest day. If he looked like he did for the finals at PJ last year he probably would have beat Jay again. BTW it looks like the lat is back on par.

[vinnyvee]

Never ever count Ronnie Coleman out. Just when you think he cant win, it surprises everybody. That being said, there is a growing consensus that Ronnie won't even make the top two. Will be third.

Third for Ronnie Coleman. Can it be???

This Olympia should be quite exciting!

I dont think anyone is ruling him out as a top finisher but as a win? Forget it......there will be no surprises. And as much as you would never take a firm stance or can never take a firm stance on such an opinion, that's what we're here for. The IFBB in my opinion has a firm hardon for Haney and will probably never allow anyone to break his record.

[dearth]

All the "remember what happened when gunter beat him" talk is so idiotic that could only come from a nut hugger.

Coleman looks like shit now.

hope this helps.

May13th - 2007

If Dorain could win with a noticably torn bi....


It will be good to see if Ronnie can manipulate his body to win...

But, I believe Vic, Melvin, and Freeman have better physiques than Jay and Ronnie.

[pumpster]

It took Weider 4 decades to figure out that a little fairness in letting the incumbent lose increases interest as per this thread.

[marcus]

Ronnie may be racist but I hope either he or Victor wins, not Jay Synthol Cutler.

How will he handle dropping to 3rd or 4th place is the question.

very true!

_HOW_ is he supposed to win with only one lat??

[Hulkster]

_HOW_ is he supposed to win with only one lat??

the same way dorian won with only one arm.

it could still happen.

[WOOO]

ron will win

hahahaha...


oh wait, you were kidding right?
