Ron Coleman: "I'm definitely not doing the Olympia"

The King Of Lurkers · Aug 3, 2010

After a year of speculation, Ronnie Coleman has announced that he will sit out the big show in September.

"I'm definitely not doing the Olympia," he stated in an e-mail to me.

Now the speculation begins if he will announce his retirement next. At 47 and three years removed from his last competition, it will not be a surprise if 'The King' in fact does hang up the posing trunks for good.

I think it would be silly for him to do it. He has 8 sandows and go out on top as he did, he has nothing to prove and his physique is not what it was once.

Seeing athletes from any sport make a come back and be a former shadower of themselves is not good. i would want to remeber Ronnie when he was dominant not being there just to make up numbers

Good call, but IMO it was obvious all the time.

He should lay off the juice and continue lifting naturally from now on.

I don't think he would enjoy lifting light...

...nor would he enjoy getting older. Eventually he has to start taking it easier, if he already hasn't.
