I don't understand the last place for Arash, the guy is compact and complete as a tank, his condition has to be better, but there were many guys worse than him.

William improved his condition for the final, I would have him in third place.

If Vitor had won, it would not have been a scandal, Rafael has a more polished and finished look, his posing routine must be more exciting, it seemed like shit.

Sibusiso was late for prejudging and was disqualified. It’s Indy, NYP or Cali for him now then.

He still appeared on stage, he wasn't evaluated I guess, but they let him pose.

Great potential, would have been in the top 3

Thanks for putting all these shots up Beti.

Overall, I’m super impressed with the conditioning of this open class, everyone’s super dry & detailed.

Thiago’s back shots are completely insane!

So glad I brought up Vitor in the preview show with Ron. Fantastic pro debut. Excited to see more from him in the near future.

Alan Romino in 6th, now here’s a guy to keep an eye on! If he keeps adding quality size with that level of detail then he’s going to be dangerous.

Am happy for Rafael. Lovely aesthetic physique, but his presentation & conditioning has taken a step back since Romania it appears to me.

Alan seemed a bit flat/washed out, but he has an excellent build. Also his tan was very dark, in general almost everyone looked bad for the tan.

[Ron Harris]

Did they let a few guys from the Amateur show jump in, who had just turned pro?

[somedevil]

Let's see Rafael lined up next to some top 10 guys before we get excited.

He's not sniffing the top 10 for a few years still..

[Jude2]

Rafael has an excellent physique, ripped and no bloat!

Very pleasing physique.

[bigmikecox]

He's not sniffing the top 10 for a few years still..

Unless some guys are off, he will get out muscled. But, he can still do damn well at smaller shows like the NYP or Tampa

Looks like Rafael needs some size

[Beti ona]

[Giles]

Rafael’s actually a pretty big guy! Aesthetic yes, big, yes too!

[Beti ona]

I feel like Samson is bigger than Rafael and Regan, Regan is the worst of the 3 IMO

[Giles]

I wonder where Sibusiso would have placed? 2nd maybe?

Thoughts guys?
