The elite IFBB Pro Coach Greg Doucette commented on the 4x Mr. Olympia champion’s muscle gains for this year’s Mr. Olympia championship in his latest video, “CBum Not Looking Ready For Classic Olympia 2023.” And the coach’s claims might upset the fans of the 28-year-old bodybuilding icon.

Greg Doucette makes shocking prediction on Chris Bumstead’s Mr. Olympia win

Doucette has some serious comments to make on CBum’s recent physique update. Citing the weight class changes proposed by the IFBB, the coach noted, “They’ve increased the weight classes for many people at the Olympia, and so a guy like Urs Kalecinski, he can actually put on seven pounds of muscle. But Chris can’t really come in much bigger because his height was already peaked capped out.”

The IFBB Pro bodybuilder predicted, “So, what we’re going to see this year is that the size of the competitors is going to be a lot closer to Chris.” But the 48-year-old coach expressed hope for CBum’s winning the title and said, “Chris was so dominant last year that if he can replicate his same conditioning, I do not see anyone beating him for any time soon.” However, Doucette didn’t rule out the negative outcome. “But could he, in fact, lose it on his fifth appearance, and the answer is yes,” the YouTuber said.

“If he does not bring home the conditioning, if he does not get shredded, and relaxes, so to speak, says, ‘Oh I got this in the bag!’ I got to shoo him! He will not win!” Doucette remarks. The coach is upset with the latest physique update of CBum when it comes to conditioning. Earlier, Doucette shared his thoughts on the 4x Mr. Olympia’s retirement.
