Does Jay have a chance of ever winning The Olympia gain?

[Line]

Never said the odds were in his favor. If you noticed, I did vote "no" in the poll. I don't expect Jay to place in the top 3, but I'd be foolish to exclude the possibility.

I couldn't care less about the poll results. I'll guess that Jay has a 3% chance of winning.

No.

In fairness to Jay his latest pics do show him to be in great shape. But winning with no right side of his body when compared to guys like Phil and Dex? He just isn't in the running.

I can see him doing better than you'd expect though as he is able to hide his flaws in the comparisons (check the guest posing thread). He will probably be top 5, possibly 3rd.

hahahaha, age is playing an incredible role in the now jay diminished condition, since the eruption of Phil Heath, Phil has been the parameter in which all bodybuilders are being measured, for example Jay never had the best pair of arms which is now more than evident, since the end of Ronnie-Jay Rivalry Jay is no more interested in exceed his back even more as in 2006, his back is no a highligh, just his legs continue being the best in the bussiness with the crazy cuts but now jay looks really really TIRED OF COMPETITION, another ronnie coleman virus right there

Huh? WAT?

 

[Pickle]

if jay can win another olympia so can ronnie. ronnie cant and wont win another olympia. flawless.

 

[DriDDeRz]

Jay is still up there and still has a chance to win the show regardless, its all up to the judges on the day on what they like
i'd like to see him win 1 more title

 

[Skeptic]

Has Dex ever been "off"?

Has Phil?

 

[isopure]

The best bodybuilder right now is Victor Martinez but he has to demostrate on stage. Phil is a serious cotender this year better than Dex. Jay is the most professional bodybuilder nowadays and he will be in shape that day so he will have a chance to win the show also. Be careful with Kai.
Dennis Wolf will be a great surprise.

I'd give him slightly higher, maybe 15%. :gaysign:

I think jay can surprise us this year the problem is he has got asymmetry and lack of condition. At the finals last year his condition started coming in. It only takes a couple of guys to come off

 

[mvsf1]

the only reason jay is there is because of his mass

And that's being overlooked once again. That's what worked for him in the past, he needs to stick with it.

agree, he just needs to be on, if he´s on in pre-judging he will be the winner

... i don't say he isn't able to win (well, that the judges aren't able to make him win) but your statement seems a bit too strong to me. He can nail his condition and still place lower than phil, dex, vic and even kai if they aren't off. He doesn't have that much of a mass advantage anymore, plus his right side is noticeable smaller than his left.
Look at the pics on the guestposing thread, he doesn't look that bigger next to phil.

 

[Maxmonzter]

he is bigger and wider then phil

 

[Storm]

Yes, and coleman is too, but he wouldn't win against phil nowadays

 

[nigster]

Actually I really (honestly) think that Jay does stand a chance.

Think about it. He has the size advantage and IF he can come in ripped, it could be possible. I wouldn't bet on it but if you ask "does he stand a chance" then the answer is yes.

 

[sexnews]

This was the ONLY impressive thing (his back) I saw in the recent guest posing pics:

 

[SerbMarko]

Absolutely NOT!! he should feel lucky he got 2.

 

[HeavyWeight_86]

This time even if he comes in 100%, I don't think he's gonna take the O again.Asymmetry between left and right side of his body are more evident now, and Phil is def bigger than last year, Kai's huge and also more ripped than Jay, then there's Dexter current Sandow owner, no way Jay is cracking the top 3.

 

[Daniel Andersson]

If we assume Jay comes in looking like he has done the last years, a little off, and phil, dex, kai and wolf comes in improved. Jay´s 5th IMO.
But if Jay shows improvement in symmetry and peaks for the show he´s top three. I dont see him taking Phil but Jay might get a gift and get 2nd.
