Hi Moe and Melvin.
-
Mo Moussawi was freakin ripped. Wheres he from?
-
Moe lives in New Zealand.
-
Moe shocked everyone at the IRONMAN, can he do the same at the Arnold?
-
Melvin is a very humorous guy. He will be a good guest! He did the PBW video last year at the Arnold.
-
Moe shocked everyone at the IRONMAN, can he do the same at the Arnold?
I predict that he will get lost in the line-up with the big names, that's always like that at the ASC :-\
I predict 8th place for him
-
Melvin vs Kai in a pose-down. Who wins?
More importantly...
Melvin, are you angry that Phil already has 3 wins, compared to you having just 1 win after all these years?
-

You would have thought that Melvin would have more victories by now. Phil already has as many W's as Melvin and Shawn Ray. COMBINED! :o
-
Vic is out and the Arnold is wide open for anyone.
Anyone named Dexter or Phil.

They agree that melvin has never looked better (when he guest posed at the ironman last week).
Melvin is truly ripped for the first time. But it was 2 weeks out, and anything can happen.
First time that Melvin and Phil will ever stand side-by-side.
-
if this is melvin in great condition then it should be good between him and heath
-
According to Melvin Anthony, who says he just talked to Dexter Jackson...
"Dexter is PISSED right now that everyone expects him to lose to Phil heath."
"People aren't giving him his respect due."
-
i've been saying for months that Dex will win the Arnold and Heath will be 2nd.

I said it long before you 8)
-

Agreed there. Plus all the buzz on the boards about phil having Ronnie arms with Kamali torso cannot help.
-
dex has a gut
phil doesnt
phil wins
-
Then Dex will head to Australia and NZ to pick up some easy cash 10k is hardly worth the trip.
-
dex has a gut
phil doesnt
phil wins
Dex has a chest and back, Phil IN COMPARISON to Dex doesn't.
-
i've been saying for months that Dex will win the Arnold and Heath will be 2nd.
I'm sure that really makes Dexter feel better SF!!! ;)
Am I the only one that feels Dexter, though he's right in a sense, is being a little, um....ghetto about the "respect issue?" Next thing we know is that he'll beat someones ass for stepping on his stoop. :-\
-
Melvin loves to Krunk.

-
Doesn't matter. Melvin, Phil and Kai will be the highlights of the show IMO. Dexter will look the same and no one will give a shit.
-
Dex has a chest and back, Phil IN COMPARISON to Dex doesn't.
dex has no chest.
-
Truth to be said, Dexter has a HUGE ego
-
dex has no chest.
not the greatest, but one of the better ones.
-
i've been saying for months that Dex will win the Arnold and Heath will be 2nd.
Agreed. Dexter should take this one. Unless Victor miraculously recovers by this weekend. ;D
-
Rob,
No offense, but no one really cares. This is the kind of crap that MD puts on the air on a regular basis because they can't think of any original or intelligent questions to ask.
People want intelligent discussion of relevant topics and humor. Not smack-talk about who's gonna beat whom. It's a beauty pageant for chrissakes.
Besides, according to Robin Chang, Melvin is too busy prepping for the Arnold to appear on any radio shows. So I'm assuming this interview was taped 3 months ago.
dude, give it a rest
its good discussion
-
Dexter will not lose to Phil
-
According to Melvin Anthony, who says he just talked to Dexter Jackson...
"Dexter is PISSED right now that everyone expects him to lose to Phil heath."
"People aren't giving him his respect due."
whats dexter going to do "steal my ride",or spend his whole welfare check to buy a gun to shoot me
1.heath
2.jackson

-
ITs very extordinary of you guys that you know how the athetes are going to look on the day of the show.
Give it a rest with the predictions for christ sake.
-
The good thing is that those of you who have signed up for Musclephone will be the first to know when the results are handed to Lift.

Phil is a bigger taller version of Dex.
Phil has more quad seperation. He has better ham detail. He has more SWEEP. He has better and REAL calves. Bigger and more separated and detailed arms. Bigger and more detailed shoulders. Sliced ham/glute tiein is the same. He doesnt have high lats like Dex. Dex cannot beat Phil if Phil is on im sorry....from a bodybuilder and judge standpoint....unanimous Heath win if both are 100%.
Plus Dex is a dik i hear from EVERYONE and Phil is nice as can be

Melvin always seemed like a laid back guy. I liked how he says he doesn't want people to cater to him, he wants honest feedback and he takes it all constructively. Not many guys are like that in the industry.
-
Elmosawi sounded pretty cool. Competing at the Arnold and than promoting the New Zealand Pro? From looking at all of all these out of shape bodybuilders he will probably be top 5 at the Arnold. Moe was an anatomoy chart at the ironman.
-

What was Melvin's reaction to the poor placing at the O?
Also...how the hell did Kai beat Branch? Get a judge on to answer that PLEASE!
And what did Phil do since the Ironman to lose the sliced condition. He was much better at the Ironman!
Speak on it!
-

I thought so too. Heath was near perfect at the Ironman pro. I think he said he would be heavier at Arnold. Poor planning. :-\

Our dark video talking about the results of the Arnold Classic (needs to be lightened up a little)
http://www.ironmanmagazine.com/media/videos.php?id=268
Weekend was great, really fun. Here are some questions and comments I heard about the contest, although there is so much more!
Did Kai Greene deserve to win or place second in the show, not third
Did Kai Green complete the very first round of competition at prejuding. Some other fans and competitors said he did not complete the first round?
Was Phil Heath crisper and his physique better at the Ironman than at the Arnold Classic.
Did Phil Heath competing at the Ironman hurt his chances at winning the Arnold?
Why wasnt Mo ElMoussawi higher at the Arnold, considering he placed 3rd at the Ironman, beating Silvio there.
Branch Warren was one of the thickest and biggest pros on the stage. Why couldnt he have won the show?

PBW:
On friday, Wolf and nicholls sat down and worked out the details.
Chad will be prepping him for the O>
-
Nicholls:
"Both at 100% - Wolf will ALWAYS beat Phil heath.
Heath is narrow.
Shoulder to waist ratio will always cost him."
-
Yeah, just heard that. Wolf has the potential to be an 8 time olympia winner.
-
Dan: "If victor can do the O - will it affect you working with Wolf:"
Chad: "Absolutely not. Vic M is probably the best athlete in the world right now. He can win the O. I can very easily see him and Dennis batling for years to come. Even flipflopping. My personal preference is that type of athlete."
Vic's therapy is going good. Rehab on a daily basis.
-
Wolf is the best thing since Arnold.
The man has presence just standing in the line up.
You scan your eyes along that line up and he instantly stands out as champion , no one is close. 8)

That's awesome! That means we'll be seeing the best of Wolf in the years to come....unfortunately, those years will be short :-\
-

So did Shawn Ray,Levrone,Wheeler,Labrada, and the list goes on.
-
Dex needs an EGO check. jerk.

Did you hit on him and get shut down?

SOme people don't handle rejection as well as you do.
;)
-

The common thread with those guys is either height issues or clavicle width. Wolf has neither of those problems.
-
Yeah, unfortunately in that video with Ruhl, he was starting to get a gut. And he still has no calves. Of course, if he wants to win in the IFBB he needs a bigger back, a monstrous gut, ripped glutes and calves are optional.
-
wolf will be a force in a couple of years, but he does have some weaknesses...
once he fixes them up then he will be a MR O winner. but for this years o i see some people placing ahead of him....
but in saying that i do like wolf a lot and he is what our "sport" needs, and with the year of just veating and training he will look amazing
-
Tony Doherty did a great job on Peptalk tonight. 8)
-
chad is a great person i think hes behind when it comes to new stuff and how to cycle it like igf etc that reason the new crazy bodies are showing up
-
I thought milos was working with wolf?
-
Dan: "If victor can do the O - will it affect you working with Wolf:"
Chad: "Absolutely not. Vic M is probably the best athlete in the world right now. He can win the O. I can very easily see him and Dennis batling for years to come. Even flipflopping. My personal preference is that type of athlete."

Tell me he did not really say that........oh brother. ::)
-
Anyone know what Chad's record is for training Mr. Olympia champions? (Or rather, has he ever trained a bodybuilder that won the Olympia the year he trained him?)
-

yeah. I think he trained some dude named Ronnie for a few years. Now that he is with Wolf it could be another pay day for the chad.
-
Hope this was a good idea of Dennis. :-\ Chad fucked at least as many athletes up as he created champions....
-
Big deal Chad Nicholls ::) he worked with Ronnie when he was losing also
-
Tell me he did not really say that........oh brother. ::)
yep, he said it.
-
I thought milos was working with wolf?
Milos' record for retaining clients is uncanny ::)
-
Tell me he did not really say that........oh brother. ::)
;D
-
Guess Wolf can kiss his kidneys goodbye.
-
what was chad kidneys excuses for melvins smooth diaper wearing appearance?
i'm guessing it was either
"spilled over" or "stomache flu"
-
yeah. I think he trained some dude named Ronnie for a few years. Now that he is with Wolf it could be another pay day for the chad.
But what years did he train Ronnie? I know Ronnie went with him for his "comeback" last year and Chad's assistance didn't help. Did Chad train/advise Ronnie during the good years when he was a deserved winner or the bad years when he won and shouldn't have?
-
Wolf and Chad is a great combination … still … it’s hard to beat Phil
