2026 Olympia - Official Mr. Olympia Thread

Orville Burke would win the O these days, easy.

I don't know about that, he looked real goofy on stage.

At the time seeing some of his gym shots I thought he had the best back of all time.

Wasn't he like 6'1"?  Imagine him standing next to Lumpsford.  He'd look like a completely different species.

Isn’t that bodybuilder airline pilot Jumpin Joel Stubbs?

[NaturalWonder83]

Will Martin Fitzwater redeem himself??

[Hulkotron]

I hope my man Krizo wins.

Yes. You are correct.

Heading to the Olympia Events on Thursday and staying until Sunday.  Should be a blast checking out all, meeting a lot of vendors and friends, and just having a good time, while working away.  Hopefully, see some of you there.

Jesus Christ how embarrassing LOL. You are right of course, got things totally mixed up. And while Joel Stubbs looked pretty awkward on stage also, Orville looked real goofy. Two black guys who looked like airplanes physically

Krizo might well be good enough for third but it aint happening, the judges have him no higher than 7th, they will NEVER place Walker behind him

This isnt about how good you are anymore, its all on reputation and social media presence.

Krizo would have been a frontrunner by now if he was ever going to be one IMO. He's always been conditioned so what could he even do to improve?

Even if the judges weren't ordered to place competitors a certain way they would be swayed by the algo, even if just subconsciously. Although I watch very little bb content it shows up on my YT feed and many bb channels are now saying Nick could win, "easily beats Samson on most poses" and the like.

One said Bobby Chick hates all blacks LOL, has a history of it. He now said Samson looked worse at the German show than last year at the O. But to be fair he also hates Nick so he wasn't one of fanboys predicting a Nick win

Apart from Ronnie most guys who win the Olympia get top 3 or top 5 on their first attempt

Rhoden was 11th forst try but then never placed outside the top 5 before he won

Ronnie deserved better earlier than he did he just got overlooked because he didnt push the publicity as much

Plus there were a shitload of great bodybuilders then.

You may be right but I don’t think Nick will be 8th. More like top 5. Too many people like him.
