2015 Mr. Olympia Press Conference - Phil Heath About Kai Greene's Absence

[musclecenter]

[Tinsley]

It has to be more than just an unsigned contract.

Kevin Levrone was past the deadline one year, and they charged him a fine.

There has to be more to the story that no one wants to discuss yet.

Exactly my thoughts on this.

[SF1900]

I like in the beginning of the video when Dennis is like, "Look at this lineup." Sure, lets look at it.

Main guys competing.

Abiad, Fouad: No one cares
Bannout, Mohamad Ali: Who?
Bonac, William: No one cares
Charles, Maxx: Who?
Compton, Justin: Not even competing
Curry, Brandon: Is he even competing?
Delarosa, Jonathan: No one cares
Elssbiay, Mamdouh: No one cares
Greene, Kai: Too bad
Heath, Phil: 1st place
Jackson, Dexter: Good competitor, but too old.
Jackson, Johnnie: Shitty legs. Should retire
Jellali, Abdelaziz: Who?
Kuclo, Steve: Good competitor.
Lockett, Michael: Liar
Martinez, Victor: Old, palumboism setting in.
McMillan, Cedric: Good competitor
McCarver, Dallas: No one cares
Morel, Juan: Shitty and oil filled.
Obaid, Essa: Meh.
Piotrkowicz, Robert: Meg
Rhoden, Shawn: Soft and watery.
Rockel, Ronny: Good competitor, but getting up there in age.
Warren, Branch: Atrocious, should retire
Winklaar, Roelly (Egberton): Horrible stomach.
Wolf, Dennis: No calves and shitty back.

Kai puts forth this pseudo-intellectual, cry baby attitude and all of his fans fall for it. I agree with what others said. There is more to this story than is letting on. I think Kai got greedy and didn't want to sign. He lets money interfere with pleasing his fans.

"He could sign his name on a poster so many times, but he couldn't sign a contract?"  - Monster burn by Phil.

[240 is Back]

Phil should be careful not to take too big of a victory lap already.

he's not at his greatest, fans are really fed up with him.  take the win gracefully.  the moment he starts with "i wish kai was in it" bullshit...

[Mr.1derful]

While Phil is holding up his 5th Sandow, Kai will be having a three-way with two grapefruits.

I think there is going to be some Kai backlash soon and that the Phil hate will subside. I think for awhile Kai love and Phil hate have existed as almost the same thing, but I think it might be a little harder for fans to keep them mixed up in the near future.

Phil Heath has a little bit of Shawn Ray in him.

[SF1900]

Kai was greedy and didnt want to sign because of money. Nice way to treat your fans that will buy his shitty supplements.

Phil could just say no comment.

Trying to rip on kai... "he can sign autographs, why can't he compete?"   What, is Phil *really* all that upset that his biggest competition won't be there.  

It's disingenuous at best, and a straight up punk move at worst.   Phil suddenly pretending he's caring about the fans, how can they be denied that matchup, blah blah blah...  

Phil's smart move here is NOT to comment on it.   "I look fwd to competing against everyone on that stage.  Outside of that, I keep my nose out of the wallets of other men".   END THREAD.

Instead, he is doing the passive aggressive troll, and he's not good at that.

No one cares about Mamdouh Elssbiay?

I dunno... he's pretty good

[Azure]

Did he talk about the HATERS on social media?

True, either or.
But, talking about caring about fans and arguing with them seems a little hypocritical, don't you think?

He should have said that he wished Kai were here, because "we want all the competitors to compete. It is a shame that we couldn't continue the rivalry."

At least he's showing personal growth, because he used to please his fans for money.


I'm amazed at his appeal and popularity (and I say that despite his past as everyone has one and many make poor choices at some point in life).  He just comes across so odd with his guest posing and interviews. I know many say he's a nice guy, personable and outgoing, but his "artistic" choices seem like they should ostracize him from the main stream.

Kudos to him though, he deserves all the success he can get.

"He can enter a subtropical citrus fruit on video, but not a legally binding agreement, huh?"

This. Phil the passive aggressive bitch.  He gets more unlikable every day.

Sorry, I am so used to seeing him being called "Big Ramy" I did not notice his actual name.

[Nether Animal]

Hey I care about Bonac. Fucker is thick as a cawk.

lol at the first sentence.

We will probably never know why he didn't compete. One of the guarded secrets of the IFBB; similar to area 51 coverups.
