| http://mr-olympia-2006.ronnie.cz/callouts/ Something is the matter with Ronnie's legs. I suppose that's why he lost (well Jays back is better this year too). |

| I assume in person the lighting doesn't suck, but the stage pics I've seen are indistibuishable since its so dark anyway. Jay also put out some pics in outdoors light, much more impressive. |

| I think Ronnie got owned... |

| Ronnie's arms, chest and shoulders are clearly better. Ronnie's legs are also much bigger (though something is wrong with them). I wouldn't want to look like either one of them. Fortunately, there is no danger of that ever happening. |

| thats a cool site. jay came in better and more dry |
| posted by estray |
| Ronnie was a little more vascular too. Im not sure how much that counts for. Jays lats were way bigger and his abs are so much better than ronnies though. |

| NO I dind't go and I am so glad..It took me several days to recover fro my show and I really wasn't feeling good until thursday.. My view on the Mr O Jay hada the complete package..Ron was in the biggest and best shape ever but the problem was his back and arm injurys he had..With him being so big and so conditioned his injurys were glaring..His back is nothing like it was and his left arm was alot smaller then his right ..The main thihngs was his back it is about 70% of what it was and from what I hear he was having a left shulder problem that wasnt alowwing him to fully flex his left side. Jay was just awesome plain and simple..His back was crazy massive his condition was on point..Now vascualrity is somwething that you have or don't so that is something you can't fault someone for..Jat has never been vascualr he coes in very hard lean and dense when he is dry and that is what he brought..Look at the vid even when relaxed Jay had cuts hwere Ronnie didn't..Jay just had great condition..Storm |

| tht sucks, i love gunther. it was obvious it was jays year this time around, but surely big ron cant compete much longer. respect to him for still being at it and not quitting while he is ahead, but at 42, is the end of ronnie? i feel jay will come into his own the next 2-3 years, he really is getting better and at 42, ron cant compete at tht level for much longer? well done jay, (keep at it gunther:)) |

| ^ jay is already one or two years past the age he said he planned to retire.. but now that he won the O that veiw might change. |
| posted by Dozzy_X |
| ^ jay is bound to be back. dnt b stupid. he wont retire at jus 1 olmypia victory. |

| Jay and ronnie are heads above the rest of the field. either one would be dumb to quit now. |

| i would say martinez is up ther. i thought he was more in proportion and in great shape this year. do some callouts on that website against jay. jay is slightly bigger. but i really like the shape martinez was in. |
