If he could have kept a small waist and flatter abs, (waist trainer? ) and pose differently in certain poses, and come in shape he's never been in. Heath shape, he'd be a top 3 guy. I like Vics physique  but he'll always be a would have could have guy because of situations in his control and out of his control. It should have been him and Heath going at but Kai became that guy. Vics has the genetics since Flex Wheeler. He could have came back in 08 after he got screwed in 07 and took the title at his all time best. I just never understood with this guy. I think he could have come in better than his 07 condition when he was young.

To me, Vic's best look was when he won the NOC, he looked ok winning the GNC, but to none of the up and comers could out do his look at the NOC he won.

The sad part is that Vic had ALL the tools to win it. Size, shape, symmetry, but he could never quite bring it in terms of conditioning. Even in this pic, looks soft. But given that Vic is a veteran, coupled with a weak lineup, he still may crock top 6.

Yes, Phil and Dex will be 1 and 2, since Kai is not competing. Dennis is out of it. However, if Ramy brings in some sick conditioning, he could definitely push Dex out of 2nd place.

To me, DEX will always be a wild card at top5 or top3, remember he is going to be 47-48, in a blink of an eye, his age WILL catch up to him sooner or later, and when it does, it will be instant

The irony of this is Kai was Vic's training partner for a while when Kai was much smaller and irrelevant, how things have changed

He should have won one year, don't recall which year....
Maybe if he can get it all together once more he'll make top 5 now.

He's made top 5 in the past on 4 separate Olympia occasions. The question remains: Can he do it again!?!?!?!  :o :o

In 2007 it should have been between Vic and Wolf. Cutler, who actually won, should have come in 3rd or 4th at best.

I too think one year he should have won, but he had way too much oil in the calves, if he had done it similar to how Ronnie and Dexter were doing it he could have pulled it off, but he had two big water ballons on the back of his legs from swelling or oil, apart from that he was par for Par with Cutler.

Truly robbed that year. The last year I paid attention to the show because of how obviously it was rigged.
