Kai Greene udebliver til Mr. Olympia 2015 Kai Greene er lidt af en fanfavorit blandt tilhængere af bodybuilding, og i år har han flere gange fremvist en vildt imponerende og skarp fysik. Men blot kort tid inden verdens største og mest prestigefyldte bodybuilding konkurrence, Mr. Olympia 2015, må Kai Greene meddele, at han ikke stiller op.Hvem er ham Kai Greene? Kai ’The Predator’ Greene er en amerikansk bodybuilder, er blevet nummer to til Mr. Olympia i både 2012, 2013 og 2014. Han er efterhånden et af de mest kendte ansigter inden for bodybuilding verdenen, og han er blevet utroligt populær grundet hans behagelige person og rolige ydre. Men derudover så har Kai Greene også selv gjort sig berømt for andre ting, der ikke lige har det store med bodybuilding at gøre. Hvis du ikke allerede kender til det, så involverer det Kai, en grapefrugt og et videokamera. Så kan du selv tænke – eller Google – dig til resten. Det skal dog ikke tage noget som helst fra Kai Greene, for han præsterer en ualmindeligt vild fysik; og mange har følt, at han er blevet snydt fra titlen som Mr. Olympia i flere omgange. I år har Kai Green ligeledes lagt forskellige videoer og billeder op af hans form, der blot cementerer hans berettigelse som Mr. Olympia. Men sådan skulle det ikke gå. Hvad foregår der? Der er en del spekulation omkring hvorfor Kai Green ikke stiller op til Mr. Olympia – og der er kommet flere forskellige forklaringer. Den officielle forklaring fra IFBB og promoter Robin Chang lyder således; “Kai has had his Olympia contract since April but refused to sign it for reasons known only to Kai. This is the same contract Kai has signed for the past 6 years. Nothing has changed but the dates. If he was banned from competing, why would we send him the contract? I’ve even heard he said he was banned from the expo! Are you kidding me? The decision has always been Kai’s. If he REALLY wanted to compete, all he had to do was sign the contract and send it back to us, like he has done the past 6 years. The last time I spoke to Kai was with his manager about a month ago when they inquired about a booth at the Olympia. No indication that he wasn’t going to compete. I haven’t spoken to them since. Under the IFBB Professional League rules, a competitor has up to a week prior to the competitor check-in to sign his contract.” Men Kai Greene selv insinuerer, at han på den eller anden måde skulle være presset ud af konkurrencen. Kai Green udtaleler selv i en video på Facebook: “I’ve got a chance to see a lot of emails and messages and things, talking about that, asking me about that. I just… This is what it looks like when a man is trying to be responsible. Let me just say that behind the scenes there is just so much more things that are going on than I’m at liberty to share with you. There is a lot more that’s happening, and that is still in the process of happening that I cannot say. It is a test of my resolve and my sense of personal responsibility to exist here in this moment, in this position, faced with this reality of what will be my inability to participate in the Olympia 2015. Let me just say that I’ve invested more than 20 years of my life in the belief, the idea, of being able to come to the Olympia and to do my absolute best. Despite whatever the opposition, whatever’s said, whatever the beliefs are on stage, off stage, whatever the oppositionary forces have been. My resolve has been to respond as a champion and just aim to represent the better thought of what that means to me. You don’t get this far, you don’t get to this point and just stop. It doesn’t happen like that. I am not a victim. They are not going to break me. I don’t want to speak negatively to anybody, I don’t want negatively about anything else. Let me just say there’s more going on than I’m able to say.” En del af spekulationerne går på, at Kai Greene’s involvering i en ny serie af kosttilskud skulle være i direkte clinch med folkene bag hele Mr. Olympia showet – og at der den vej er blevet skabt store kontroverser. Det koster nemlig en del penge at fremvise sin produkter til Mr. Olympia (helt op til 15.000 dollars), og folkene bag Kai Greene’s serie af kosttilskud har eftersigende nægtet at betale; på den baggrund at Kai Greene skulle være deltager og favorit til titlen. Men det er stadigvæk ikke be- eller afkræftet. Under alle omstændigheder, så får vi ikke Kai Green at se til Mr. Olympia 2015. Hvad tænker du om hele misæren? |
