It would seem our only hope is that Phil has a breakdown. Right now as he's on top it seems like his plan is unbeatable. Train moderately with light weight, don't mega dose until show time and keep late training hours/work while they're sleeping.
But the truth is we don't know how it will end. We saw Ronnie show up bigger with worse condition and maybe some nerve damage yet number 9 seemed inevitable. Jay was deemed to always be a bridesmaid but never a bride, but he kept at it. Dexter was/is always consistent from show to show year to year. Along the way Victor, Badell, and several others were poised to win.
And here we are again with a champion who appears to have no opposition.....
