Who is the greatest of all time? It’s a question that’s been on the mind of every sports fan in recent times. Regardless of the sport, people on the internet are debating who is the greatest player in their respective sport. Is Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo the greatest soccer player of all time? Is Jon Jones or Georges St-Pierre the G.O.A.T. of MMA? Similarly, bodybuilding fans have debated which Mr. Olympia winner is the greatest to have graced the stage.

In fact, even the President of Mr. Olympia wants to know which bodybuilder fans believe to be the greatest. Earlier, President Dan Solomon uploaded a video featuring some of the most legendary bodybuilders in history. In the caption, he asked the fans, “Who’s your G.O.A.T. ???”

Who are the contenders for G.O.A.T. in Dan Solomon’s list?

As the 2023 edition of the Mr. Olympia contest inches closer, the hype and anticipation among the fans are building. Hence, in the post to fan the hype around the most prestigious annual contest in bodybuilding, Solomon wrote, “There’s nothing like a good G.O.A.T. debate!!” The video featured his selection of some of the best to step on the Mr. Olympia stage.

“Ronnie and Haney won it 8 times. Phil and Arnold have 7 of them. Dorian did it 6 times. Jay won 4.” Solomon wrote in the caption. The video showed some of the most iconic snippets from the bodybuilder he mentioned. However, some names stood out among others in the comments section of the post.

Bodybuilding pros and fans narrowed the list down further

Four-time Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler commented “the best” on the post. However, the only champion to avenge his Olympia loss didn’t mention if he was talking about himself. Cutler’s comment was the most like one. Last year’s runner-up also didn’t pick a contender outright. “Gets me (fired) up!!!!” Lunsford wrote. However, other pro and fans did give their opinion. IFBB pro, Melissa Truscott, picked The Comeback Kid. “@jaycutler… doesn’t get better #4xMrO,” she wrote.

However, Ghanaian bodybuilder yunik_fitness picked Cutler’s arch-rival. “Yeah Buddy…Ronnie all day every day,” he commented. One fan chose seven-time winner Phil Heath. “Why? Because no one ever looks 8k 3D in history. Because his talent met with his Gift from God. If he didn’t get injured he’d have 10 no doubt about it maybe more 12!️” wrote the passionate bodybuilding enthusiast. A few others picked Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, barely anyone talked about Lee Haney or The Shadow Dorian Yates.
