Alright, so congrats to Big Ramy for his 2nd Olympia win, and I think Brandon Curry was much closer this year than last year.
Ramy did not look that improved from 2020 to me, and Brandon Curry still does not have that thin skin like other well conditioned bodybuilders.

I definitely wanna see the scorecards, because I do not think Big Ramy should have won with perfect scores.
Anyways, Curry's shape while posing or relaxed is still the best to me. He has that Flex Wheeler kind of shape and roundness.


Has anyone noticed during the posing round that Ramy's abs look to be migrating to the west? lol
Last year I have noticed it as well, but it was pretty certain an ab cramp or something similar.

Oh yeah, this is why I mean he cannot win with perfect scores. Just look at that half back double right there.
I hope for him it is more of a posing thing. (maybe like Chris Bumstead's back double in 2019 which was weak, and in 2020 his back not only was improved, but the way he posed made him massive as well)

If it is insertions related, he is pretty much screwed and no matter what he will do for training, he cannot fix a genetic thing.

Bigramy1




Roelly should have been dead fucking last. If you are a "professional" bodybuilder, you never ever should let that gut hanging out like that.
It was a problem for him in 2015 or so, he came back, fixed it, kept it always controlled, and now it looks like he does not give a shit anymore.

This is not professional and should not be accepted, ever.

2021 Olympia Top 5 Winners

1 Big Ramy
2 Brandon Curry
3 Hadi Choopan
4 Hunter Labrada
5 Nick Walker


Almost like I had them after watching the prejudging.

Just watched the replays, and I have:

1. Big Ramy / Brandon Curry
2. Brandon Curry / Big Ramy
3. Hadi Choopan
4. Nick Walker (better condition than Hunter)
5. Hunter Labrada (he kinda looks flat in some poses and that flat chest + the tear is hurting him imo)
6. William Bonac


7. Justin Rodriguez I would say. This guy looks the most impressive from the 2nd call-out with Iain, Roelly and others.

But most probably the judges have Iain in 7th and Justin in 8th.



I still don't get it why Hunter, which was holding some water, and did not look that conditioned next to Nick, placed 4th.

The shots where he exposes his chest tear are pretty disturbing, like in front double biceps, and his back was freaking soaked in water while posing in the finals callout next to Ramy, Brandon and Hadi.
Even Shawn Ray and Lee Haney mentioned his watery back in the live stream.

You have a keen eye! I didn't notice Ramy"s abs were migrating until you mentioned it. Now I can't stop looking at it. It's not really bad but not symmetrical.

I agree about Roelly. Sad because he's one of my favorite bodybuilders.

And yeah, Hunter was really, really sweating initially.

What did you think of Hadi? If he had a little more mass I think he could have won.

^^ Hadi was the driest on that stage by far.

Probably the best midsection and obliques as well.

You can see that he is still a little bit bigger 212 guy, I would guess @ 220 on stage.

Like you said, with a little more size AND the same conditioning, I see him beating Ramy in most poses, especially if Ramy comes next year as he did this year.

All in all great show and the judging was good at least for the top 3. I love how Hadi got the people's champion award too. He's got a huge fan base!

Yeah, he deserved that trophy, and I am not even a fan of his physique. Just being honest.


This is art imo.
That upper body shape & proportions are impossible to match.

Hadi is small but if he can bring his size up he can win over and over. I don't think he can gain that much size though.
