Many bodybuilders have graced the stage of Mr. Olympia, but none could leave behind impressions that Ronnie Coleman left. Having dominated the event for eight straight years, Coleman holds the title for most wins alongside Lee Haney. Standing tall at 5’11”, the undisputed King had an exceptional physique. His enormous muscles even made his competitors envy him.

He may have retired years back, but the legacy he left remains unchallenged. He may not compete professionally, but Mohamad El Emam believed that he would beat the likes of Big Ramy had he competed today. IFBB Professional Bodybuilder Mohamed El Emam was involved in a serious car accident in Saint Petersburg, Russia, in 2021.

Mohamed El Emam shared his honest opinion.

It’s no secret that Ronnie Coleman is one of the top bodybuilders in the industry. He maintained a physique that was so enormous and well-trained that it almost seemed unnatural. Few people have been able to equal that kind of incredible physique until this day. Taking this into consideration, Mohamed El Emam had his winner decided.

In 2021, when El Emam sat for a conversation with Generation Iron Fitness Network, he was asked to name the top bodybuilders. Investing no time, the bodybuilder had his answer ready, “Ronnie Coleman.” He explained“So Ronnie Coleman, in the 90 in the last era, he worked so good that if he competed now with the same package, he could be easy, Mr. Olympia.”

A Ronnie fan, Mohamed believes that Ronnie’s physique is so outstanding that if he were in his prime, he would easily win Mr. Olympia. He further revealed that even after five years, if Ronnie walks the stage with the physique that he had from the late 90s, then, too, he will walk away with the title.

The King gave his predictions for the 2022 Mr. Olympia. He presented his selections for the top 10 in the Men’s Open Division after analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of each qualified competitor individually. Ronnie provided a comprehensive breakdown of top athletes and presented his verdict.

While he was critical of many, one person caught his eye. That was none other than Big Ramy himself. Showering his praise, he quoted, “With all this size, and the great V-taper he got here, biggest shoulders you’ve ever wanted to see—I don’t see nobody taking him out—nobody at all. So, Big Ramy, congrats on your third Olympia, my friend; I think you’re going to take it again.”
