Would be cool to see the Olympia being held around the world again.
I would also like to see the Olympia on TV again and not some shitty low quality webcast.

the most important shows are all in the US.

Having the Arnold Classic is just like a US championship. And the Olympia would be more like a World Championship the greatest event a global scale event that could bring the sport to the world cene as it should be!

I think it should be in different countries every year. It would help bodybuilding grow as a sport more.

It'd be cool to see Olympia going around the world, but depends on the sponsors.

Every year another country, in this case many others will know much more about bodybuilding, especially when the greatest show will be held in their country (or city) and at least for curiosity many will attend the show. For some of them, may have a huge impact, and could be a "future style of life" someone who's trying to be another big name in this sport, for others just experiencing weights training, having a better body,healthier life and so on. (ex. i know some guys here who joined the gym 2 days after the Mr.O 06 lol)

So imo it's not a bad idea, actually a good one :tiphat:

people all around the world compete in the Olympia not just americans, so why just have it in the states? doesnt seem fair to others.

america only! i'd like to see some figures on it but i'm pretty sure the shows in the states not only bring in more revenue but have more sponsors. i'm not for sure on that but i remember hearing it a couple times.


the biggest baddest country in the world should have the biggest baddest bodybuilding show.

All that traveling would take a huge toll on the quality of most pros' physiques. I'm not saying it would be a drastic difference but any miscalculation would be magnified and many would use the excuse of "travel" if they didn't come in at 100%.
