I believe Ramy should have win
Dirty Politics
No way. Phil clearly has the better overall package. Nobody is even close.
Lol Phil don’t even have visible pack..
I think it came down to pure ahestics and Phil still has that over Ramy. But Ramy will be a force next year. Phils gut is def something he needs to address.
Not really. All Ramy has is size, his skeletal structure is naturally very large and that’s it. He is a good guy and People love him, but that’s not enough to win the Sandow. Phil is most complete guy nowadays on the stage. People don’t love him, but that’s not enough to defeat him
Aesthetics aren’t a criteria for judging shows, unless in a tiebreaker situation. Condition is first, then bilateral symmetry, then overall proportion, then overall muscle size, then muscle maturity, and last considerations are presentation and aesthetic appearance. Otherwise, guys like Brandon Curry would have been top 6 guys long ago. He was probably the most aesthetically pleasing athlete in the show. He could have walked into classic and looked appropriate.
Ramy made everyone look like a child like Dorian did in 1993 😀

შენ რო ბოქსის გრუპაში წერ კომენტარებს, მე დაგცინი? 😀
შენთან ჩანს ხოლმეე? 😀
ეხლა აღარ გამოვედი მგონი მაგ გრუპადან :დ
და კულტურიზმის გრუპაში გადახვედიიი ???
ჰო რავი :დ
ჰაიტ! 😀 😀
people keep saying Ramy had no “waist” but say nothing about phil’s gut, it really is very unpleasing to the eyes,
Husam W. Raheem exactly
I think for ramy size his waist looked very good. I could tell he worked on it. I wouldn’t been surprised if ramy won. But of course I knew Phil would win regardless.
Ryan Mosley like Ronnie Coleman said, you can only hold back that kind of size for so long
I’m a Phil Heath supporter/fan and even I think Ramy should’ve won.
No doubt Ramy was way ahead of phil
Please explain how, BESIDES the whole gut thing…..?
I liked ramys legs better than Phil’s to be honest
they went from this to judge th ggg canelo fight?
Ramy won in every pose out there against phil and phil only won the back double biceps and they gave him the title fuck so the fuck there are other poses ? Ramy won and that’s a fact
Hate to say it but Phil was better than ramy aesthetically.
Backwards
this is how he looked
Phil has maybe the worst x frame on that stage. He can barely open up his lats from the front.
better aesthetically then phil should have competted in the classic physique.
I will never stay awake to watch an olympia again .
Phil doesn’t dereve this win
The real dream killers are the fucking judges
Idiot ?
Your father ?
Well said. Fuck the IFBB and their politics in judging.
good
Vincent Subranni
Tsé lol
This was stolen from Ramy just like it was from Kai.
Dirty Judges…
Dirty Politics…
Dirty win…
Worst thing about it all is that Phil doesn’t even care. He just wants the win. Doesn’t matter that he knows it was bought for him.
Ok how about you be specific, besides just using the “he looked pregnant excuse”…. how else does ramy win?
Funny every single person working event talking about event for the past 2 days has said nothing but phil is going to run away with it but I guess they are all wrong but you are right ?
Ramy seems to have proper dried up over night, i cannot understand why he lost
Size, separation, and conditioning was all there.shoulders on rammy were weak but he made up for that in every category. His chest and back are absolutely massive.
Here’s the thing who’s more marketable a guy who can speak english or an middle eastern man? I think it’ll go to Phil just because of that and I’ll say it it’s racist lol.
Andy Boutsikakis Phil can’t open his lats from the front…His arms are way out of proportion to everything, his pecs are almost 1/2 the size of Ramy’s, and half the size they should be, the gut makes him look like an alien, the thighs don’t sweep like Dexter or Ramy. To end it Ramy just is the best from the front in every pose…the side pose while Philhas serious separation, doesn’t come close to Ramy glutes, hamstrings, and quads, or his 3 dimensional width and thickness up top. From behind Phils back double beats Ramy hands down, but his rear lat spread cannot come close to Ramy.
Phil is so symmetrical and he was in better shape..talk all you want he looked way better on stage..I don’t like him much but well deserved win..
Olympia is fixed
Can’t whine about Kai anymore (oh wait. You did) so it’s time to jump on another competitor to complain for/about.
When i looking to them stomach on the podium you can see how using juice a naturel bodybuilder have flat stomach
This is just sad the one sport I enjoyed is garbage no fucking way pregnant Phil beat Ramy it’s bullshit.
Brilliant
Totally true bro.
Taylor Malson if you go pose by pose which its suppose to be ramy wins more. Quarter turns ramy wins front ralxed and both sides.
In the mandatories ramys wins front lat spread front double bi back lat spread side chest ab and thigh.
Nedim Begić look up the definition of symmetry. you’ll find Phil doesn’t fit that definition.
Lesley de Vlaam roid gut !!
Ramy should have won.. With phil at second place.. Purely because of phils bloated gut..
Thats what i noticed
Jesús The same o same shit…bonac is The 2017 champion!!!! Suckers!!!!
I’m always in favor of Phil even when he beat Kia I truly believe Phil was better. But this time I’m sorry Phil you got beat and I must also say I’m not at all a big Ramy fan but not so much that I’m ignorant to the facts. Sad to say but it’s must really suck when big ramy knows he won and so does most everyone but the judges. I felt Phil’s flaws were really exposed this year’s such as his bloated gut and narrow shoulders especially standing next to RAMY
Kyle Haven’t seen all the photos yet but still think Dex looks the best overall.
Now no more interest in Olympia as it has all become politics, Ramy looked bigger in all aspects.
Forget about judges people choice always win BIG RAMYYYYYYYY
yes the judges would have given the chance to ramy.
Dude…Big Ramy stole this mufugga, but he got robbed!
Give credit to big ramy and dexter jackson.the oldest competator with that body.damn………how he do it?
How did Phil win. Everything on ramy is better.
Worst Mr O…. Ever!! Phil had massive #gut
If they don’t get their shit together quickly, the entire sport will vanish into an abyss of epic fail.
Ramy has more size and definition than Phil in just about every category muscle group.They are tied in a few categories but no way Ramy loses.
Try and explain that to a Phil supporter… it’s a waste of time!
It is so clear when you watch the head to head, that phil has more defined parts overall. It is so obvious. What is more obvious, is your dislike of Phil, and bias view.
Watch Finals fanboy, Ramy had zero definition, weak separation, weak conditioninig. It doesn’t matter if his chest is wider than Phil. Phil had every visible muscle fiber on his chest, same on legs. Ramy had 2 slabs on his quads while Phils quad had every visible muscle on it. same on shoulders, arms, hamstrings, back. Ramy had Just slabs of muscle and no muscle had that pop that Phils muscle had. only advantages Ramy had was: Width and waist. other than he didnt have nothing. If Phil would have Waist like in 2011 or 2013 Ramy will never be close. How people can’t understand that Ramy have body that cant have good details and conditioning. He will never have details like Jay didnt had details in certain body parts in his whole carrer.
Arnas Exodus are you on crack?
Stop crying people the show is over Phil won end of story.
Whoever would have won or lost isn’t going to change one iota of my life, its just a sport people!
Nobody cares if it changes your life, douche.
Evidently you care because you responded
Eduardo Cruz dexter > everyone
Phil health wil b always d champion
Whole bunch of bullshit judging going on in Vegas that night
Politics
I think ramy should have won
This is why body building isn’t a sport. The judging is subjective. It’s like some men think Beyoncé is the most beautiful woman on earth and some may think another woman. Who’s wrong? Body building is a Beauty pageant.
100% facts
So Phil ain’t your Beyoncé?
No sir.
Not entirely true. They have rubrics they follow. But the human mind is biased and if they favor someone more than another the mind will overlook the flaws. Judging by humans is stupid – look at the judge that scored Canelo and GGG 118 – 110. The job will soon be given to algorithms for every sport.
That’s true but the debate can be good as well,but not when it’s so one-sided against the guy the judges like so I agree with you.
Pretty much the entire top 5 were close
Stephen Andrew Lightcap now that fight was rigged GGG won
True…they have rubics they follow but interpret how, when and why those measures are or are not met. Additionally, as humans, their assessment of competition factors are influenced by non-competition factors. For instance, if Phil wasn’t the Olympia sweetheart, the way his stomach looked when he wasn’t in a pose may have caused him to be judged more harshly when he was in a pose. Although u are only supposed to be judged in poses, u can’t unsee what you saw and it effects u….i think that benefit of the doubt that Phil may have gotten is what ppl are complaining about
I recommend cycle for muscle gain bulking cycle cutting and fat burn send me a friend request if u are interested.
4 me it was BIG RAMY
This all comes down to subjectivity. What do people think about the new Dorian Yates Super League? Incorporating physical prowess with look all decided by numbers.
Its the greatest idea ever
Ramy won hands down
Punishment for allthe beautiful and balanced physics like Curry, mc Millan, Jackson.
Ramy is genetically superior. No amount of work or drugs could make Phil better in my opinion.
A big cheating with Ramy
Lucas Figueiredo Garfaram o Ramy!!!!
a velho, analizar essa porra e foda ne…. diferenca e pequena, ele tava melhor mas n entendo essas ”proporcoes” e ”simetrias”, tu olha desde o top 10 ate o phill, tds gigantes, fibrados, mt parecidos
Done with watching bodybuilding. Joke!
Ramy looks way better than the douche Phil
In this pic right here Ramy looks shredded as fuck Phil looks puffy
Sam van Portfliet
Ramy
Just this pose ,Rami seems to excel above the rest in size, definition and symmetry.My opinion.
Ramy hands down should of won. Frigin politics.
Dexter should have won . . End of story
Looks like Dexter was in better condition than the previous day.
RAMY IS NEW MISTER OLYMPIA
Ramy got robbed because he doesn’t speak English.
Period, end
Hashtag Dirty politics
Hashtag ‘marketability
Hashtag if they keep this up, no one will even care anymore
I think your right and he knows it, he got much better this year but it would he hard to be a true ambassador of the sport if you can’t do English interviews.
well said.u must be a good talker n articulate in ENGLISH..u can just imagine marketing n promoting a product n guesting n interviews in muscle magazines needs a comprehensive command of da english language.
#hashbrowns #truth
Rammy deserved it
Ramy would have won if he was black!
Ramy was robbed!!
People all talking about Ramy. More credit needs to go to Bonac. He’s the true threat to Phil.
Agreed and neither of them are a threat to Ramy..
Vic Webster I like ramy and all. But he’s short in a few key areas and his conditioning just isn’t there yet. He is getting better yearly also – but Bonac will win in a year or two.
I honestly don’t know what the judges are looking at?!
Guys, why Roelly Winklaar can’t win Mr. Olympia? What do you think about that?
Karim Abaza check out the top comments
Ma3lesh , he’ll kick his ass next year
Macmillan got robbed!!! Ramy is fantastic but Dexter got robbed too! Dexter beat Ramy for sure and razor thin to Phil.
Ramy had more striation, more muscle separation. His waist was smaller than Phils and his abs were more visible. His back and legs were better as well. I think the only thing Heath owned him at, was the front double bicep pose. Bullshit like this has happened many times.
Ramys back was definitely not better or even close to Phils
Waste smaller than Phils, well, at
Least we no upfront that you have no idea what your talking about ?. It is so clear when you watch the head to head, that phil has more defined parts overall. It is so obvious.
Justin you’re right, Heaths back had more muscularity, and more separation, so that’s a mistake on my part. As for you John, you should learn the difference between no and know, cause you just sound a dink.
And yes John boy, Ramy waist was smaller than Heaths.
Tarl Clausen “cause you just sound a dink” ? lol ????
I love how you avoid showing me proof that Ramys waist was either bigger or big as heaths. If you can’t back your shit up than get lost, cause I don’t have time for someone who doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
Fuck the Olympia bs
And it’s the bubble gut by a nose. I don’t know why everyone says it’s politics, by who? If the IFBB really wants this bloated shrimp as the face of its league then there not as brilliant as I think they are. He is hated by more people than love him and the sport will never grow as long as there is a major jack ass as it’s figure head.
Wolf tickets…
In this pic, Ramy clearly looks better…entire competition wasn’t this pic…maybe his body ‘peaked’ after judging while Phil’s peak was in time for it….the science relating to how the body shows when it is time to show is a part of the contest
Look at this pic, I mean come on it’s a given to Ramy
Has Phil found out if he’s having a boy or a girl yet?
One of each it’s twins ???
Olympia ruled by politics, once again proving The Arnold is now where the prestige is at. So tired of judge Steve – what other industry lets the same guy be the end all be all for this long. Guy has lost perspective and is part of the problem with Olympia – it got stupid with the Mass Monster bloated gut look on his watch – it has become what is has become under him. Time for some new blood (The Arnold) and new judges.
Thats why Kai stepped away because he saw all the politics.. Arnold all the way….
I can’t even watch this crap anymore
Ganaba ramy
Ash Palmer
All of you were Great.
FUCK IFBB
Phil beat ramy because the only thing they marked Phil for was his stomach being bloated, ramy as much as i like him couldn’t hit a side tricep properly probably due to lack of mobility, his lack of quad seperation, calves under proportion, and smaller lower lats. Honestly bonac shouldve placed 2nd because his only flaw is his shorter thicker midsection
Must have been the same judges as the Golovkin/ Canelo fight. Judges working overtime
The Olympia is a Fucking joke now.
Dexters lats in this pic
Yes that was stolen from big Ramy
Is this event all for black dudes??
Big Ramy is middle eastern, and the champ before phil was Jay cutler who’s white
Pav Gainda
How’d ramy not win
This bullshit will continue for another 3 year and then phill will retire. I only hope that Ramy is still around in 4 years so he can take the title.
Ramy won Phil was pregnant ready to have triplets Phil couldn’t even hold his poses ffs ramy was massive conditioned An had flow An could pose. Ramy is he true king. I hope Phil is happy with the fake win just give him the next 3 now so he can screw off some were An let the real king take over big ramy.
I’ve personally heard that the tv doesn’t show the true definition and size of these guys. You have to be there sitting in the front row to truly see who is better
Terry Rumble I can’t see where phil was better then ramy
Smaller waist but looks like it has more of the gh gut effect, it was close though next year he should have it his getting better n better
Big Remy was robbed. I don’t get this. Kai is right Mr O has a mafia. Next year cam look however and still win. This has become garbage!
It is so clear when you watch the head to head, that phil has more defined parts overall. It is so obvious. What is more obvious, is your dislike of Phil, and bias view.
He has a bubble gut. How can you win like that?
By the way I did watch it in its entirety. In years passed he won it and he won it clearly but this year there two others that should have won it. So now you are saying he is in the same league as Arnold then you are going to say he is in same league as Ronnie lol you are funny! Talk about being biased!
Dexter All the Way ..
I’m done with competitive body building. So much political bullshit .
Ron Walton
Wtf is going on. Look at these three. More cut. Bigger. Proportioned better. This was hands down Ramy’s year. I like Phil but he HAS NOT EARNED IT OVER KIA OR RAMY!!!
Demolish that fuck MR.O
Phil all the way
Politics
They said in 2012, 2013 “If Ramy nails his conditioning. Comes in with more muscle maturity. He’ll run the Olympia.” He did all of the above and skill got jobbed. ♂️♂️
Such a fake
And Phil Queef will win next year so this gap tooth twat can then run his mouth about he’s the best ever since he’s the first to win 8 Sandows. Yes it’s biased as fuck and the judges outta be beat with a toaster oven. Ramy’s legs lacked detail and separation but holy fuck balls Batman that gut on Phil Queef was out of control. That growth hormone is making his gut bloat like his ego.
I’m sick and tired of that half breed phil stealing the win when he has no business winning. That 4 eyed fagot from the ifbb shouldn’t shit were he eats and should go hire male escorts istead of banging phil and giving him the winns.
This is shit. Even in this picture anyone can see whose huge
This one has really hurt the olympia brand.
Looks like Ramy should have won. Anyone else notice how different Dexter’s left arm is compared to his right?
He will never be better than Arnold Schwarzenegger such a disappointment.
The Big Bad Ramy
Big Ramy FTW!
big ramy always the best never find a bodybuilder like big ramy in the holy world
This is why the Olympia sucks and professional bodybuilding sucks. Ramy, is clearly the winner however it’s all political and money.
A hollow victory
Phil let his guard down
I was there. Ramy should have won. wasnt even close. The arena was silent when the Rock made the announcement. Nobody could belive another screw job occured.
Big Ramy is more massive, better porportioned and more cut. Oh Yeah Phil Heath is the paper champion again. Typically political BS in IFBB.
Los jueces hacen su trabajo observan líneas en la anatomía de cada bodybuilding y no tamaño claro que ramy un día ganara pueda el otro año o 2 años más está bien grande pero nesecita un toque sito de calidad fácil ósea madures en sus músculos está impresionante pero falta lo que dije y ganó el mejor es todo jajaja
Big Ramy got robbed looked better and bigger. It’s sad this has become so political and dirty is not even funny. Why y’all think kai didn’t comepete. Because he realised that no matter how great you look you won’t beat phil. Yo but really did anyone noticed Phil’s gut smh. Pathetic smh
Steven Harb whats the go
big rakey should have won it all this is horse shit
