Number nine will be hard to come by if you realize how tore up his body is. Ten will be almost impossible.
And besides, he's got to win #9 before number 10!

Ronnie really should just retire after this year, no matter the outcome.
Why? Because if he wins, he'll be #1 in all-time wins and have nothing more to gain. He lost his response to lifting last year, and most likely his body won't have the same reaction- look at his "half a back" and "lack of triceps" last year.
If he finishes anywhere besides 1st, he'll have more and more trouble coming back-especially given the points above in regards to his body failing him.
Really, this is should be his last year no matter the outcome. I'd like to see Ronnie comeback, in his 99 form or even '05 shape. But if you look at the history of BBer's, once most people lose that response, it's gone.

Response to lifting? WTF is that and how did he lose it?

Nothing to gain? How about renewing his huge BSN contract? And how about prize money?
First place: $155,000. Second: $90,000. Third: 60,000. Fourth: $48,000. Fifth: $38,000. Sixth: $30,000. Seventh: $18,000. Eighth: $17,000. Ninth: $16,000. Tenth: $14,000. Eleventh and lower: $4,000 each.
Not to mention all the money from guest posings and seminars, traveling the world, banging fitness chicks everywhere, etc.... He's not going to just walk away from that.

Note how he looks drastically different from previous years? Half a back, a torn triceps, not as detailed as in years past (crispness, conditioning etc), not as freaky in size.
Perhaps I should have been a bit more detailed in my description.

Didn't realize that I had to spell out everything.

Ah, I give up. Some of you people need flashcards that tell you every detail or minuscule point.

Ah so if he looks better this year he has found his response back then?

Thats what i wonder too... If he cant win, he will continue to do it forever?

If he does not win I think the best way for him to leave on top would be for him to peak for the spring shows and totally clean house by winning everything from the San Francisco Pro to the Arnold. I'm pretty confident he could do that and winning the Arnold would be easier to predict after seeing if he beats Victor in Vegas which I think he will. What other way could he leave on top?

Chad is great at getting guys to pump themselves up with extremely unhealthy amounts of drugs.

obviously you never shelled out the cash to work with chad, the compounds and amounts he advises are 10% of what people think

Naked4Jesus makes some good points, why should he retire if hes making good money.

JasonH · « **Reply #39 on:** August 29, 2007, 07:54:02 AM »

Ronnie won't win this year's Olympia - he's getting too old and too injured. Jay is on a good three or four year roll with this one. Having said that - Ronnie will still continue in some capacity - like others have said - there's money to be made.

Tigerman · « **Reply #40 on:** August 29, 2007, 08:20:54 AM »

Ronnie will retire if he wins. His sister on mayhem confirmed that he will retire soon
Apparently he hasn't decided what to do if he loses... (it won't happen don't worry)

ehhhhhh I hear what she's saying.

But...

I see Ronnie, if he wins, going for ten.

Jay will retire after his 4th sandow probally then wolf will take the throne at about 280lbs by then!

I see ronnie slightly worse then last yr do to the natural downfall that age dictates and jay slightly better!
nothing major from either camp!

New Mr.Olympia 2007
Ronnie outside the top 6
Jay Cutler -3rd

When Ronnie lost, it freed the IFBB. The best bodybuilder will win!

Every top bodybuilder has flaws. Ronnie's tri/lat. Jay's imbalance. Vic's quads and waist. Freeman's pec.

However, Ronnie is one of the only guys at 270 pounds. He'll be more shredded than anyone up there. He'll have the best arms onstage. He's a legit shot to win #1.

Outside the top 6? LOL... Can you please name the six bodybuilders who are more complete, with less flaws, and better physiques than Ronnie?
