yeah it says, how does it feel to lose? there are people like that who you think are concerned but really they want to rub it in your face and talk about it.
Very impressed how well Chris was prepared for this interview. I think you can only get this far with someone when you have a personal and abiding interest in the topic.
Dude, your interviews are excellent as well as the studio setup, editing, shots, lens choices, lighting, etc.! Very very well done. Checks all the boxes. Great work!
@@lancewilliams8001 Arnie Rivalies were many, but the most important competition wise was Arnold vs Sergio.. then vs Lou.. and then vs MIke.. but with mike was more about politics, personality and principles..
I don't know what's better jay chasing colman until colman got much worse and jay finally surpassed him. Or phil and kai who were neck and neck for years and years.
Kai vs Phil was def the biggest fued. They really had tension..both of them had very unique looks. Phil was already rich then, Kai was struggling. Light vs dark
Kai wasn't struggling, had muscle meds deal & winning 100k-150k for 3 years probably had other sources of income ,whilst living a minimalist lifestyle. He chose the simple less flashy life & that made him seem like he was struggling
True!! After Kai stopped competing the open category started to decline and even more once Phil lost and didn't come back in 2019. It's no longer the most interesting thing at the Olympia like how it was when Kai and Phil competed.
7:50 I would have called ya too bro! No matter what I lost and respected the guy who beat me. I would root for Kia being from NJ and seeing him since way back, but I knew Phil was the guy to beat. NY guys call each other names that we LOVE.
off state, the rivalry was so huge because Phil has a huge Ego, and Kai somewhat also, although came out back in the day as more likeable, while Ronnie also was somewhat like Kai in that sense with enough big ego and strong confidence of him being the best, but Jay was the most downtoearth dude and chill, so it was hard to create a true unanimity and tense rivalry with someone like Jay.
Phil & Kai should straighten everything out offline, then do a podcast together where they keep up the rivalry act. They could be a very entertaining duo like Eddie Hall & Brian Shaw !
thank you this question to The Gift! Kai Greene was absolutely one of my favorite bb's of allll time... i remember wanting to flex next to one of my boys to just reenact the time they tried to upstage each other by engaging in that elbow war in 2014
Incredible I'm glad, Greg called him after he lost. What an incredible time of bodybuilding are the Phil Heath age I think he probably passed the time I don't know
Dude your interviews are absolutely top notch and the production quality is always amazing. This interview is great. All that being said. The set and setting looks so uncomfortable. Are you guys in a sweatshop, at a high school cafeteria lunch table, sitting on hard metal chairs with absolutely no cushioning at all? I feel for Phils back and butt from sitting in that chair that honestly looks so uncomfortable I can’t handle it
Phil heath has the best bodybuilding genetics probably ever, especially his response to the drugs and skin texture. He just took it too far with the HGH in his later competitive years. He could have had 10 olympias but im sure he started upping certain doses that he didnt need to near the end of his career and it caused him to have severe reaction (gut area)
It’s amazing how Kai Green can be the the biggest person to call and console Phil on his loss, yet Phil is still able to find a way to ruin it with his conceitedness and not acknowledge how great it really was and how much it must have took for Kai to do it despite the rivalry that they had…
His brachioradialis (forearm muscle on the top of the forearm that ties into the bicep) is literally bigger than a lot of people's arms. Only one that comes even close is Flex Lewis
Yeah, everyone needs to look up the controversy surrounding the 1980 Mr. Olympia. Arnold should have never been allowed to compete, let alone win. He didn't even deserve a top 10 finish.
How self absorbed is Phil Heath… I’m the best ever. Dude Dexter Jackson was there when you were in HS and still there holding his own at your 3rd place showing in 2020. 20 Mr. Olympia appearances. Say what you want.. the longevity and success of his career outshines your Sandows.
This was a short term rivalry. Green should have won that year imo and likely cost it by his actions but jay and Coleman was the best long term rivalry even if friends.
I was always cheering for Kai over Phil when they competed. But, let's be honest, there really was no rivalry from a performance standpoint--Phil was always better
Hello you legends. Watch the full episode with Phil Heath here - th-cam.com/video/llwjSyMl8Yc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nnP4EqIS4HgLSaWL
Kai being the only one to call him after a loss says a lot
yeah it says, how does it feel to lose? there are people like that who you think are concerned but really they want to rub it in your face and talk about it.
@@BLAKEEATS1988 Did you even listen to what Phil said about it?
8:20 absolute chills, what a beautiful story to know these two legends have such a special relationship now
@jimbojimbo6873😂😂😂😂😂
I like he clarified it wasn't emotional like he was gunna cry and he proceeds to get all misty eyed haha
please have kai green next as a guest on your podcast
Yesssss!!!
And make sure to ask him about the watermelon he fucked for money.
He talks nonstop nonsense
@@hugster2000 you do realise that you don't have to listen to him...right? Secondly, one can't make everyone happy...right?
podcast would be 12 hours long with the way kai talks
Kai vs Phil was the last time the Olympia was fun and entertaining to watch
Very impressed how well Chris was prepared for this interview. I think you can only get this far with someone when you have a personal and abiding interest in the topic.
A Kai Greene interview would be fantastic.A very humble and competitive man.👍
I dont think he wants to be called a man
a very big man who likes to put a weener in a grapefruit xd
Pass. That dude is a weirdo
Kai talks too much
Kia is fluent in gibberish. He tries too hard to sound smart and he ends up sounding dumb.
"they didn't beat the Phil i know" maaaaan to have your rival say that 😢🙏
i was such a kai fanboy during the height of their feud, but being older now and hearing phil talk im such a fan of the guy
Never knew about that call. Made me feel like a teenager again hearing him talk about Kai. Incredible.
...2016 college me has been waiting for this clip for nearly 8 years. Man this takes me back.
I appreciate what kai did, spice things up,give us a show, like wwe but not going too far
Dude, your interviews are excellent as well as the studio setup, editing, shots, lens choices, lighting, etc.! Very very well done. Checks all the boxes. Great work!
kai and phil should start a podcast together, i think it could be the greatest show in bodybuilding
The bond between the two is so strong cause only they have experienced the rivalary and now it became commaradery
Phil feeling validated by the big bad Kai says a lot
I was on team Kai, and I always lamented when Phil won. But damn Phil is one beast.
I believe Kai had him beat at least twice in my opinion.
@@salmanebennani9327what years?
The greatest rivalry was between Cutler and Coleman. Kai and phill was kinda forced by the industry
Agree.
Bigger than arnie and Mike
@@lancewilliams8001 Arnie Rivalies were many, but the most important competition wise was Arnold vs Sergio.. then vs Lou.. and then vs MIke.. but with mike was more about politics, personality and principles..
Coleman and cutler? that wasn't a rivalry, that was just competition. a friendly competition, Phil and kai had bad blood and that's rivalry.
I don't know what's better jay chasing colman until colman got much worse and jay finally surpassed him. Or phil and kai who were neck and neck for years and years.
Dude looks like Dr Mike now😂
Kai vs Phil was def the biggest fued.
They really had tension..both of them had very unique looks. Phil was already rich then, Kai was struggling. Light vs dark
Light vs dark wtf lol
@@venicec3310 archetypes. You should read more
@@flemutter7211 nobody is in the dark or light just two competitors
@@venicec3310 again reading comprehension is key 🤦🏿 😂
Kai wasn't struggling, had muscle meds deal & winning 100k-150k for 3 years probably had other sources of income ,whilst living a minimalist lifestyle. He chose the simple less flashy life & that made him seem like he was struggling
Phil and Kai got the world outside of bodybuilding to start watching the sport, def greatest rivalry hands down
True!! After Kai stopped competing the open category started to decline and even more once Phil lost and didn't come back in 2019. It's no longer the most interesting thing at the Olympia like how it was when Kai and Phil competed.
Having a rival like Kai green only makes you better and work harder. Great rivalry made the completions enjoyable to watch
I'm convinced Phil heath and elliot hulse are long lost brothers
I hope the vibes are cool now cuz I look up to these guys rivalry and their dedication to the sport
7:50 I would have called ya too bro! No matter what I lost and respected the guy who beat me. I would root for Kia being from NJ and seeing him since way back, but I knew Phil was the guy to beat. NY guys call each other names that we LOVE.
I think Phill wanted this to be the biggest rivalry.. but I remember back in those times, they were still talking about Jay and Ronnie.
Disagree, Phil’s and Kai’s actual distaste for each other made their rivalry interesting. Ronnie and Jay came off as two regular dudes just having fun
off state, the rivalry was so huge because Phil has a huge Ego, and Kai somewhat also, although came out back in the day as more likeable, while Ronnie also was somewhat like Kai in that sense with enough big ego and strong confidence of him being the best, but Jay was the most downtoearth dude and chill, so it was hard to create a true unanimity and tense rivalry with someone like Jay.

Bring Kai Greene on next 🙌🏼

I met Kai in Birmingham fitness expo
Dude was so humble and cool
Cool bit of the interview to hear. Looking at the comments, I can clearly see why he said THE FANS ruined it!
Hasn’t been the same since them two left the Olympia!
Rivalries are very very healthy and rivalries don't have to be hated rivalries are vital for competition
This was great. Thanks to Phil for doing this.
these phil heath segments have been great
Absolutely love these videos!
The rivalry was awesome as a fan. I liked kai but phil won 100%
Phil Heath's forearms out here looking like quads
The Peak of Bodybuilding. Kai is amazing.
Art direction is amazing.
Woulda been real cool if you added the pictures you were talking about
That Beef Took Bodybuilding into another Galaxy. I remember everybody being at the Gym Lookin Like Monsters tryna Get That Body
great content
Ronnie and Jay was the best rivalry - you had the greatest of all
Time in Ronnie and Jay pushing all them years.
Phil heath has the best bodybuilding genetics probably ever, especially his response to the drugs and skin texture. He just took it too far with the HGH in his later competitive years. He could have had 10 olympias but im sure he started upping certain doses that he didnt need to near the end of his career and it caused him to have severe reaction (gut area)
Respect to Phil for giving Kai his props
2011 Phil heath was one of the best Mr. Os ive ever seen. I do think Kai shoule have won in 2013 and 14.
It’s amazing how Kai Green can be the the biggest person to call and console Phil on his loss, yet Phil is still able to find a way to ruin it with his conceitedness and not acknowledge how great it really was and how much it must have took for Kai to do it despite the rivalry that they had…
Of course Kai was always operating on a higher level.
Umm. He earned the right to boast. Its not conceit. IT'S earned privilege to talk smack. Bodybuilding competition is cutthroat.
He literally said how he appreciated it during that moment of him talking about it. 7:38
13:02-14:40
He did in his video later on. Talked about what that meant for him and the respect he had for Kai and that they are friends
The rivalry between always main me hit the gym harder!
Great interview 👍
Even now those forearms are still popping. Best in the history of the game.
His brachioradialis (forearm muscle on the top of the forearm that ties into the bicep) is literally bigger than a lot of people's arms. Only one that comes even close is Flex Lewis
@bowenbottorff1283 Its unbelievable, its like it sits on top of his arm like bubble of muscle, the fullness is insane.
That rivalry reminds me of Arnold and Sylvester.
Phil you will never figure out Kai's mind, cause Kai himself doesn't know his full mind
2 of these best to ever do it
Phil seems very cool and genuine 🙏
conclusion: phil and kai, best friends for life
Why phil looks like Kurt Angle so much, even tho he is light skin lol
lol literally a light black kurt angle!
@PolishBehemoth in size he's bigger, lil bit younger & short but face shape n cut kinda similar to 70%
Yo so true 🤣
If you close your eyes, he sounds like John McWhorter too.
@@phillbarnes8513Dude, that's hilarious and only 4 of us got your reference.
"They didn't beat the Phill that I know" Ufff that is an Apollo - Rocky 3 shit 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Phil wasn’t the best ever lol Ronnie is
Yeha 4 sure but Phil is nr 2 and people sleeping on him because he's personality.
Potentially..... Flex Wheeler wayyyyyy better than Phil.
Dorian Yates.
@@marchegler3025😂😂😂lmao based on what?
Arnold is the greatest of all time.
Awesome podcast session
After hearing Kai call Phil after his loss shows he may have lost the battles but won the war.
Unreal content
Okay now we need to hear what kai says about it all. Also I want to know what his top 10 is.
Mentzer vs arnold is also a big one
Phil's forearms are fucking unreal. What is this size.
Kai is a legend
I got chills wow that’s how it’s supposed to be honestly
Phil is a good guy, real humble.
Kai Greene got robbed a couple years in a row and that’s due to the politics that go on in bodybuilding
If my ego was as big as Phil's, i would be president
Actually you need a smaller ego to be President. People who are secure and confident in themselves don't want the job.
@@bearclaw5115politicians have the biggest egos ever. Small ego people , with absolute drive, chose a more dignified job
If you had 7 mr O's your ego would be the biggest ever.
Nice phone call ❤
Violence is not the answer, but irl who wins in fight, Kai or Phil?
Sure am glad they didn’t actually fight, one of the greatest rivalries in bodybuilding.
When Phil and Kai was on the stage everybody had to be on there A-game cause 1&2 was always set in stone.
Where did you get that table?!???!!!
Kai Greene should be a 1x Mr Olympia.
Kai Greene is a legend
Phil's forearms though..surely the best set of arms
The best bodybuilding rivalry was Ronnie Vs Jay 💪💪
Bigger fued than metzner and schwartzenager??
That wasn’t a feud though because Arnold was in another league
Yeah bodybuilding was much smaller back then. Arnold was on another level among anyone during his peak too.
Don't think you guys know Metzner.
You realize he was supposed to win in '80.., over Arnold.
It was more mentzer hating Arnold, arnold could care less lol
Yeah, everyone needs to look up the controversy surrounding the 1980 Mr. Olympia.
Arnold should have never been allowed to compete, let alone win. He didn't even deserve a top 10 finish.
5:11 I cried laughing lol.
Phil...Nobody was beating Phil in his prime. No one! Phil has to be the most intelligent BB in history. Let my body do the talking.
Prime Ronnie Coleman, probably?
nobody can beat phil Heath forearm, he has big bicep on it too...
How self absorbed is Phil Heath… I’m the best ever. Dude Dexter Jackson was there when you were in HS and still there holding his own at your 3rd place showing in 2020. 20 Mr. Olympia appearances. Say what you want.. the longevity and success of his career outshines your Sandows.
Getting in someones head is a important tactick
Phil's forearms are bigger than my legs
They are both dope af.
Imagine Phil vs Kai masters Olympia
Glad phil has respect for kai
Kai is a class act man
💪🏽💪🏽
This was a short term rivalry. Green should have won that year imo and likely cost it by his actions but jay and Coleman was the best long term rivalry even if friends.
It’s not bigger than Jay and Ronnie’s
Nope. It takes two winners to make a rivalry.
Not in a traditional sense but the tension between the two was unmatched. They almost came to blows on stage lol
Kai should have definitely won at least one. Not taking anything away from Phil.
Arnold vs. Mentzer?
Great times wooow, recent olympia events sucks!
I was always cheering for Kai over Phil when they competed. But, let's be honest, there really was no rivalry from a performance standpoint--Phil was always better
Nope
