The Kai Greene and Phil Heath Rivalry Heats Up As Both Call Each Other Out

Kai Greene to Phil Heath: “You Can’t Stop The Inevitable”

Kai Greene and Phil Heath have called each other out. The veteran bodybuilders are all but confirming that they will clash once more in the the future. A series of Twitter and Instagram posts are supporting the notion that Kai versus Heath is inevitable.

So we can finally say that both Phil Heath and Kai Greene are not done with competing just yet. While the internet has been speculating the return of both bodybuilders, the two have all but confirmed that they’ll do battle in the future.

The rivalry between Kai Greene and Phil Heath is well documented. For several years Kai tried to unseat Heath as the Olympia champion. While he always came close, Kai was unable to defeat his bitter rival. Heath was able to secure his position as Olympia champion, pushing back every challenge that has come his way.

That was years ago now. Both Kai Greene and Phil Heath have moved onto greener pastures. They have started supplement lines and continue to make guest posing appearances. Both men have also pursued ventures outside of bodybuilding. But no matter what, bodybuilding competition is in their veins and both men have been hinting at a return.

Well now it appears that both men are ready to throw down. In a series of recent posts, both Kai Greene and Phil Heath have called each other out.

YOU CAN NOT STOP THE INEVITABLE!

This isn’t the first time Kai Greene declared war on Phil Heath either. The Twitter exchange pictured above is proof that both men are ready to compete again. More specifically, both are ready to compete against each other.

WAR IS COMING!!!!!!
#KAI VS #PHIL

There’s nothing quite like a good beef to stoke the flames of excitement in the fans. Kai Greene has previously called out Phil Heath, but didn’t get a public response from the seven-time Olympia champion. Now it seems that Heath is down for the challenge and isn’t hiding it.

Phil Heath has also called out another top bodybuilder recently. Heath took shots at 2019 Olympia champion Brandon Curry. There is no love lost between the two and a call out from Heath shows that the competitive flames are still burning within the seven-time Olympia champion. With his call out of Curry and now his back and forth with Kai, it’s safe to say we haven’t seen the last of Phil Heath.

Things are certainly heating up. While we may have wait to see these men battle on a bodybuilding stage, these recent events have made it clear that showdown is inevitable.

What do you think of a potential Kai Greene versus Phil Heath match up?
