Our Predictions
At first glance you may have looked at this Nordic Pro list and wondered, “Why should I care?” Yes, it’s true that the list of mega bodybuilding stars is short in supply – but that’s also what makes it exciting. Particularly because we still have Steve Kuclo and Generation Iron alum Roelly Winklaar competing in this one.
At the Prague Pro Roelly just beat out Steve Kuclo in fourth place – making this the perfect opportunity for Kuclo to try and get some revenge. Not only that, but revenge that can bring him a 1st place win this time. Without the rest of the mega competitors in the running – there’s a very good chance that Kuclo could get his third ever IFBB pro win of his career. The fight for first place is going to be a close one and we personally love it when there isn’t a guaranteed or obvious victor. Let’s hope this one keeps us on the edge of our seats.
Our prediction? We think that Kuclo will take the first place spot – creating another fantastic back and forth rivalry between himself and Roelly. Steve Kuclo is a bodybuilder who can be a top contender one day. His rise might be slow – but we’d love to see him in the top 6 of Olympia one day. Perhaps this weekend will be another step towards that goal.
