Regardless of who you’re a fan of I think we can all admit that a) it was very close and b) the hate that Derek has gotten simply because he won a close decision is unwarranted. We as fans need to be more respectful of these athletes.

We all need a coach like Milos. He LOVES Samson!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No one should be mad a Derek. The judges made the decision

Milos called me a stalker at the Olympia because I ran into him over 5 times 😂😂❤️

Love hearing Milos' analysis and critiques. The guys is a historian, and a super-passionate fan. The Cardio Joke had me dying😂.

Milos' cardio joke was the best 😂

Who else would like time stamps on Cutler's cast?

I was looking forward for this podcast, thanks guys!

Milos: You want to tell me he wins this shot? Jay: YES! 😂

As an Iranian fan, I congratulate Derek and wish him the best He is a loving and moral person

They should put a 4 inch tall barrier strip on the stage to stop them from stepping over the line. That way everybody is seen with the correct perspective.

So many pros will say that you win from the back. This is still holds true for Derek!👍

51:54 ''What are you talking about 2020'' Jay killed me with that one! Love you Jay!

Guys, I m from Italy, and I m almost crying... thanks for these contents, in Europe we don't have those things and those experts like jay and Milos. I m so grateful to have the possibility to have this material, it s a gift for my passion and for myself. Thanks to all of you❤️

Amazing show! Great analysis.

Milos and Dorian taking shots at each other is hilarious

Your eyes just went to Hadi he had that polish,hard dence muscle.This is what upsets folks, politics.Fans want these judges to be impartial and the best package should win,that what the sport needs!

Great insight gentlemen! God bless!

Great job Cutler Cast. Been lookin forward to this.

One thing I really like about Derek is that shape and silhouette in most of the poses is just mythical. Looks a bit otherworldly even

Been waiting for this one!

I have been waiting for this -- for the last few days....i'm getting a drink and i'm going to enjoy this one tonight!

Next year the top three is going to be with Derek Samson and Nick

Been looking forward for this since the competition ended! Best BB podcast out there! Great breakdowns

The most anticipated Podcast!!!

Love Jays knowledge and Milo. Great show!

I’ve been waiting for this episode. I can’t wait to hear everyone’s perspective

Anyone remember the controversy of the 2007 Mr. Olympia?? I think since that one this is the most controversial since then.

Thank you for your insights, expertise and humor. Best podcast in the whole BB-World in my opinion.

Re. The timing and idea of using the Expo and a black backdrop… yes! Just that! Having suffered the over bright, camera ruining, distracting rolling backdrops and lighting on a $75 ppv it’s unfair on us but way more unfair to competitors who put so much into it to be sabotaged.

Work day saver been looking forward for this episode

It's ridiculous to ask how important is the ab shot. Body building has gone downhill since the golden era

Been waiting all weekend for this haha

Finally, I couldn’t wait for this podcast! I’ve been going nuts thinking what you guys are going to say.

I had Hadi winning but also can understand why Derek won…

Been waiting for this!

Samson will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

I thought this year they would fix the lighting, but somehow it got worse. I sat in some of the front few rows. The fog was so thick on saturday it blew off the stage into our seats. I could see half of everyone

Lmao I love when they turn around to the back double bicep jay cutler just says it for what it is 😂😂

I’m dissapointed in BB these days …

Its injustice....you know

Thanks very much!!!

Glad to see experts breaking this down. 😂 Milos to Matt “ you’re reaching”

What is Milos looking at??? Samson is not close to Derek or Hadi in side poses, especially side triceps. I mean I know he is biased coach but geez man. 🤣

My fav BB is Andrew but this MR O i was left wanting more from him. More conditioned better posing and better attitude on stage. Like he was at the Texas Pro 23.

Best breakdown, thank you.

100% agree with Matt here on the timing and doing pre-judging at the expo.. that would be awesome!

Whenever Jay and Milos are on podcast it's good

These episodes save me at my job. The day just flies by 🔥

No hate but Hadi deserved to win. Derek wasn't there yet. The organizers just wanted a better ambassador for the sport, american (check) christian (check). Politics

Get Derek to the podcast 💪

These guy's are all amazing!!!!! I would not have wanted to be a judge!!! They all were with in a few point's of each other!!! Real fan's understand how hard it is to separate your self from the other competition!!! They all put their Heart and Soul into the sport!!!! Much Respect to all the competitors!!!!!

"Dorian is into Yoga" - i almost shi* my pants. Milos is the funniest Person in BB Universe i love it!

🎉 well guys, been looking fwd to this one! Can I just say Regan! What a warrior to go through the food sensitivities is no joke- after cancer mine got worse. He made major improvements and championed his way through the difficulties & his partner is amazing!

Derek, Cbum, Keone and Ryan ❤, congrats you all

Awesome insights from Jay and Milos, and gotta thank Milos for pointing out that Hadi's reaction wasn't out of disrespect. He probably couldn't even understand what Bob told him while he was leaving because he's hearing impaired and doesn't speak English. Congrats to Derek as well for bringing a hell of a package this year. Next year competition will be legendary.

Great job with the video!!!!

Andrew should have been at least 4th. Samson and Andrew for top 2 next year.

I love Samson but I will say he had some stomach issues at times glimpses of gutish

Jay is infatuated with Derek's side leg, while at the same time overlooking how soft he is in his upper body haha

The fact they had Keon win over Shawn clearly set the stage for Samson to win and then they didn’t follow through - crazy

Manager Matt has the best summary/analysis at 1:30:04 !!

Thanks Jay, Milos is always fire great insight from both of you and yes the lighting suck especially on the pay for view thought they were at a disco the Olympia needs to consider the athletes first and then work from there !!! SR.

Love the show jay..

Definitely one of the more exciting Olympias as of late

Is anyone gonna speak on the new champion injecting synthol in his lats,the two red balloons that are infected whe. He did the double biceps,and his arms too, he can't even get a bicep flex, when he does most muscular it looks like two water balloons 😅

The Friday night lighting/music/screen was OBNOXIOUS!!!

The 2nd best podcast in the game 🙏🤩

"That's a cardio" LOL I love Milos' cute little jokes

Milos ended Jay blowing Hunter “maybe Hunter could win if he was up there alone” was hilarious at the 32:48 mark.

Jay cutlers awesome dude I love how he likes who he likes an he likes Nick walker an he’s gonna vouch for him that’s just cool as hell dope person

Jay me alegra verte y escucharte como viste el Olimpia nada ya es como en tu tiempo extraño esa época eras una estrella resplandeciente nadie brillo como tu el escenario era tu cielo pero ya verás yo lograré igualarte te admiro gracias por todo q

What happened to having to “knock out” the champ?

54:25 Agree, Derrek front legs are not Mr Olympia legs.

Make the line at the end of the stage , if someone moves forward , they will make a big splash 😂😂

40:27 If we go back and look at the prejudging of 2007 Mr. O they had the guys on a 2-3ft riser on the stage with screens on the riser and a black curtain behind the competitors AND then sponsor screens at the top of the stage. I was IMPOSSIBLE to not see the sponsors(so check the taking care of sponsors box) AND there was the PERFECT back drop for the athletes(so check the taking care of the viewers and athletes) EVERYONE WINS. Now of course we can put a modern day upgrade on this approach but it takes care of all involved!

Hadi and Shaun both got robbed!!! I don’t get it. Very weird year this year in bodybuilding. I’m from the 90’s of bodybuilding and it’s just not the same anymore.

Derek had better glutes and killer poses and back views. That was the main edge I saw. Great Olympia this year in all divisions 💪

Glad you had Milos on for this one!

best podcast of the whole year

derek is the Phil heath 2.0 with that 3D back pop

This Olympia was meh. Lots of top guys pulled out or retired so bottom of the top 10 was a fake top 10 imo and all the placings were so obvious. Everybody knew they wanted to give Derek a win before the show even started

great show!

See this is why guys don't come in peeled, Krizo came in shredded and everyone says he wasn't full enough. If next year he comes in full, everyone will cry how guys today just focus on size and it should be more about being peeled lol. We need to make up our minds ASAP

With Milos as a coach and Mentor, who needs a lawyer? ";-)

We all know the robbery history in MR.O

Look at Ramy when he lost the O and dropped to 5th; how did he handle such a devastating loss? One thing he didn’t do was storm off stage like a poor sportsman. Everyone is a great winner, but a loss shows who you are

Once again, an awesome episode! I was surprised when they were talking about Cbum that they didn't mention how dominant he won WITH a lat tear 10 weeks out! Crazy!

Glad you support Milos! Giving him some quality food!! I did hold Samson or Hadi the winner, and Derek number 3. but Derek is still the winner, and i know the judges saw more and know more then me.

It's more likely 4 judges had Samson in 3rd with 1 of them having him in 1st

Hadi can’t promote the sandow yearly. Ifbb knows that. They chose who’s more beneficial for sport. Feels odd though because it was close but I think the judges were “persuaded” to go a certain route

I’ve watched the rest,now time for the best ❤🇬🇧

J,n Milos. That's awesome to hear there analysis. Jay goes "WHAT ARE YA TALKING BOUT". IT'S OUR MASS ACCENT.AND ANOTHER ONE HE GOES NO ONE LANDED IT. SEE HOW WELL INTUNE HE IS. HE KNOWS THE PROCESS AS HE TELLS Milos, THANKS J. #CutlerNation #MattyFromMass Confused about this Mr.Olympia. not gonna lie. The new Guys gotta get that mapped out lol.

If Hadi was not from iran and a better ambassador to the sport, he would have won hands down

I Am disappointed with IFBB new direction. I think that, they send a bad messege to the bodybuliding world: only bussines, and politics means

hadi = fdb / fls / st / mm / abs thigh Derreck = bls / sc / Bls Hadi = 5 Poses vs Derreck = 3 Poses No comparison. Even if you give the side tricep to derreck its a 4:4. The champ had to be knocked out. This did not happen here!!

Miloš King ❤. Much love to you from your Serbia ❤

You can't blame the judges. It was a very close battle between Derek and Hadi. I'm glad Derek won. He also won people's champ which should explain a lot as well.
