Did you think kai greene should have been mr o instead of phil your thoughts?
Agreed. Phil had density and the depth. Kai had much more shape in his hamstring/glutes clearly shown in the side profile along with his unmistakable lower back tree. Phil can be a bit more pleasing in the most muscular. Kai got tighter as he posed but Phil came out that way. Phil has a more definable abdominal wall. All said and done its a close call but I was pulling for Kai.Thought Kai had a nicer shape than usual, but Phil had prettier muscle bellies. For a minute we thought they were going to go at it on stage as they certainly right on top of each other!!:duel:
Yeah, I think this is what happened. I think it came down to what those judges wanted at the time, and they decided they preferred what Phil was bringing to the table. But man, that tree on Kai's back was sick.I Agree with cobbledpath. I think kai had slightly better conditioning. I also think kai had better legs and back. However, phil's v-taper was better. Phil has very wide shoulders and a very narrow waist, his arms are big enough to fill in all the gaps to make EVERY pose look great. Great competition
Yup!!! He was looking a lil flat compared toImo Kai looked better in pre-judging than he did in the night show, he looked like he lost a lot of fullness in his physique.
In a way the freak factor seems like its on it's way out, judges seem to be moving away from the mass monsters and back to more aesthetic physiques.Just throwing this out there... Rhoden looked the best to me. Amazing physique, not saying he should have won. he didn't have the freak factor, but his physique was near perfect if you ask me
If this is the case, Jay and Branch will never have a shot at winning. i agree that it could be a good move for the sport though. Maybe the mass monster thing is why correa didnt win the 212's...In a way the freak factor seems like its on it's way out, judges seem to be moving away from the mass monsters and back to more aesthetic physiques.
In the end it's probably the best move if they want to get back to the popularity body building had in the past.
yeah rhoden def had the best physique.....i'm actually surprised he brought the size as wellI think Rhoden had the best physique. Great shape and definition. Between Kai and Phil? Tough call.
Me too. Give him a couple years. I think he's a future Mr. Olympia as long as he doesn't go crazy playing the size game.yeah rhoden def had the best physique.....i'm actually surprised he brought the size as well
