not to mention that phils shoulders and chest also look bigger and better.

True, sh!t Phil's forearms looks to be as big around as Branch's upper arms.

The only thing Branch would have going for him would be condition but when is Phil ever off?

I never got the whole Branch "condition" thing---he just looks beet red, he is not really seperated, striated...he just is "meh".

X2. He's like Jay, even when they are ripped they look smooth. Oh he's "grainy". By grainy, does that mean shitty skin tone?

He also is never evenly conditioned. Always softer in the back.

branch more than holding his own here.

Phil's biggest threat---if he actually starts listening to getbiggers about his "width" issue...

I seen Kai in Toronto pumping up for his guess posing and he is in shape 300lb, his thighs have gained size since last year, just a bit and his lower back looked like big slabs of muscle hanging reminiscent of Coleman, third last year and not even his best showing, If he nails it he could win, no way should Phil take this lightly while a genetic freak like Kai is in the mix

Victor was 4th last year. He will be lucky to get back to that size and condition after losing half the offseason.
Jay looks decent in recent pics, but is certainly on the comeback trail as well, many thinking he will not compete.
Dexter is consistent but may be past his peak.

Wolf? Branch? Kai?

Is this going to be a cakewalk win for Phil Heath? It was close with jay, espeically after Phil faded and jay came in strong on sat night last year at the O. Will anyone even come close this year?

The schmoes/dealers of whatever Phil is taking as well as any judges he is servicing. Does anyone else matter?

they just draw the winner out of a hat then give it to that guy for several years until he retires.

Yup, an in shape Kai can be very dangerous, as long as Branch does not win.

really only 3 pose a threat,jay if he makes a helluva comeback again,kai probably has the best chance,and wolf if he gets shredded,there is always a chance for a long shot,who would have predicted ronnie in 98 or jay almost beating ronnie in 01.

If Kai can come in peeled like this with his new
mass he could give Heath real trouble.

That is.
But the politics dont let him win.

Kaj has forever disqualified himself for big titles the moment he shove in his big title inside a piece of fruit

From the back, Kai is the best in the world. From the front, his short torso and turtle belly doesn't flow well.

he still wins outside of the Olympia despite this, yet Bob Paris' career was over for just admitting he was gay. no public displays,and bodybuilding was done for him

If Victor had more time definitely would be a threat! He can not grow and diet and be a threat in that short a time! I would say Kai is definitely biggest threat, can't see judges giving it to him, even if in great shape! Phil is a good rep of the sport has personality and seems like a nice guy! Branch should not even be in the top 5 for reasons already well documented and obvious to every body but the judges! Jay injuries getting the best of him! Phil will definitely win another one !
