Jay Cutler is one of the bodybuilding legends whose Olympia titles are not enough to tell the entire story about his physique. He won only four Mr. Olympia titles in his entire career. Moreover, he stood as runner-up in six Mr. Olympia competitions. Many critics and people think he should have won more titles than he had. He also dethroned the eight-time consecutive champion, Ronnie Coleman, in 2006.

However, Cutler has his own opinion on the biggest bodybuilder he has seen in person. Cutler once disclosed his opinion in an interview, in 2018, with Ron Harris.
