I agree with the results almost 100%. Good judging (if we bypass KEvin English's placing xD).
I missed the live finals but must say I thought Dennis deserved the 2nd and also Lionel & Victor deserved to be above Branch! And then theres Kevin placing in top 10... PHUCK that!
Kevin English beatign guys like Jose Raymond, Ed Correa or Sami Al Haddad especially, was fuking sad! He doesn't look anywhere NEAR the top 15 in ANY show on earth. Same with Branch, he place 9th ahead of guys like Lionel, Victor Martinez, Brandon Curry and other great bb'ers. I don't know why is he still rewarded high places..

Do you think Phil deserved to win by perfect scores, especially at the finals? I thought Kai was so damn close, even winning some of the mandatories, like the rear lat spread, RDB..etc.
Some photos from the finals - Posing routines. Mecca album here: tkD's Album: 2013 Mr Olympia gallery! More pics from the finals + posedown + awards to come! Stay tuned. Toney Freeman. With a total of 152 points he places 15th. At the age of 47! what he did is amazing. And with such a talented lineup his place was good enough! Well done Toney!
Victor Martinez -11th place. After all the injuries and bad luck after bad luck, he had earlier this year and for the entire 2012, he was 13 points close to Lionel Beyeke and the 10th place. This is only his 2nd show after the arm injury, and he will come back bigger and better for the next show, which probably will be the 2014 Arnold Classic,
Shawn Rhoden! For many, 4th place could be a dream come true, but not for Shawn. Last year he placed 3rd and was ready to attack the O title this year. He looked a bit improved since last the 2012 Mr O, but with guys like Phil, Kai and a hugely improved bodybuilder, Dennis Wolf, 4th place was as good as it comes.
Steve Kuclo places 14th in his Olympia debut! For a rookie he did very good, beating guys with more experience and who have placed in the top 10 in the previous years like: Toney Freeman, Brandon Curry and Johnnie Jackson! Watch out for him, because in the eyes of many he could be a future Mr Olympia.
Roelly Winklaar, 7th place! After a couple of years placing out of the top 10, Roelly finally found the magic formula, of size with conditioning. The improvements he brought for the 2013 Mr O were incredible. Legs on par with the upper body, back vastly improved and like many in this business have said, probably the best arms in bodybuilding today. Next year he's gonna aim for the top 6 and that will be very interesting to follow!
Kai Greene 2nd to Phil again! If you remember last year in 2012, Kai brought a very good package to the stage, almost winning the whole show. This year, he went for a little bit of size, instead of that grainy and shredded conditioning that could have dethroned Phil. With that said, 2nd place again for him, 2nd year in a row, and look out for another interesting battle in 2014!
Phil Heath - 1st place! Or like one of his shirts say, H3ath! That's right, Phil won the 2013 Mr Olympia for the 3rd consecutive time, tying the 3x Mr O Frank Zane. With again, perfect scores, Phil brought an improved package, and deserved the win. However, many other have said that it was VERY close between him and Kai, especially in the finals, and that the perfect scores victory is not justified. Will that fire up Phil even more for the next year? Stay tuned on musclemecca, and we'll see his progress going into the 2014 season.
Johnnie Jackson - 16th place. Johnnie definitely isn't happy with this place since he did better in the previous years, including a top 10 finish. As always, his only weak point is the balance between the upper body and the lower body. If he will manage to bring the legs to the top 6 level, he could be in the top 6. Why? Because his chest, back and the rest of the upper body are one of the best in bodybuilding today!
Lionel Beyeke. He had to work hard for his 10th place at the 2013 Mr O . And hard work pays off, right? He was happy with the result and with the package he brought, especially when he had to fight and compete for a couple of times before scoring enough points to qualify for the O. With Dennis James's help he managed to get better and better every show, and that payed off in the end. 10th place and $10.000 dollars richer! If he will continue improving at this speed with Dennis James as his trainer, 2014 could be his best year in bb'ing. Top 6 is so close for a guy with his potential.
Jay Cutler. Only 6th place for him. After a bicep injury, and a year off (2012), Jay made his comeback on the Olympia stage, last night, placing 6th in a tough lineup. He was looking for regaining his title, and winning his 5th title, but in the end he had to accept with the 6th spot. Since he didn't announce his retirement, as many thought he was gonna do it, Jay might come back next year to show everyone that with a full offseason he can do better than that. We can only wait and see what's to come from the 4x Mr O and 3x Arnold Classic winner, next year at the 2014 Mr Olympia!
