What an amazing interview. Shawn actually wrote back to my best friend in 1989 after he sent him a fan letter. It wasn’t just a quick note, either... he wrote my buddy a two page response. I’ve respected Shawn ever since.
Big deal, did he send him a check with that response fanboy, or did your partner shell out more money to Shawn or the magazines or whatever? I rest my case...lol
@@mikevaldez7684 A check? Wtf are you talking about? He wrote a letter to Shawn and Shawn wrote back. This is basic shit, don't be an idiot.

woah
I cant see flaws in Shawn throughout the interview. He knows exactly what he wants to say and control the interview that Patrick has a hard time to take over. One of the best intense interviews!
Seb - Imo I don’t think Patrick had a hard time, I think we just watched 2 straight alphas converse with some intensity that both controlled. 🤙🏻
I can’t see flaws either, i just wanted the interviewer to get to his point at times and I thought Shawn was very patient and in control.
57:56 He doesn't see the positive aspects of social media and turn a negative to a positive/ leveraging it
They both have a high testosterone because of TRT.
@@Kikwatz those guys are natural bro.
Shawn has courage to tell the truth, and he does NOT "SLAM" Phil Heath, if you watch the entire interview he esteems Phil. I gained serious respect for Phil from Shawn.
My god the interviewer trying to pull an arguement every five minutes
Not at all, what interview did you watch?
I get your point, but it makes it a compelling interview....
Nicholas Burton the first hour was no arguments and if anything a good interview needs debate
entertainment! he made the interview shawn Ray ain't no pussy to interview. great job
Bruh he’s the best interviewer. Fuk outta here.
The reason a lot of bodybuilders didn't like Shawn Ray is evident by how their lives turned out... Most of them only realised too late that he was right in his argument... Very smart man... Articulate and authentic...
What was he right about? Sounds like a whiny B to me
Re3iRtH he was right about compensation, biases in judging as the panels never changed, inevitable deaths, etc. other competitors and people didn’t like it because they see it as “don’t bite the hand that feeds you”, but Shawn was taking care of himself and didn’t need to care about who’s feathers he ruffled
agreed, a lot of pros are getting their extra money from sometimes really sketch supplement ads that could die out at any moment like Ultimate Nutrition, Shawn has an actual legit career within it
I agree
“Healthy, Wealthy and Well-Traveled”. A quote I intend to live by.
Dave Palomba I’m not of the tinder generation however I was wondering what you meant by that?
The tinder kids want to travel a lot to meet new tinder matches.
Dave Palomba lmao must have had his girl taken from a tourist 😂😂😂
Toney Jones k love
I suggest not traveling in helicopters
It seems like the guy just wants to argue with Shawn. But Shawn's answers all seem reasonable to me.
Yeah. Professional bullshi*%^#+ don’t become professional bullshi*%^#+ overnight. Shawn ray is a douche and has lied many many many times. Hard to believe on what he says a lot bc he’s that good
people sometimes forget, this man was one of the best bodybuilders ever
you mean, you forgot?
:>
Best bodybuilder my ass!!
But he's a bit of a D.B
No he was not.
He’s very cute too. No homo
Shawn's dead on in saying EVERYBODYS lucky Dexter isn't 10 years younger .
@wnypaisan27 jesus the conditioning stood out with Hadi, now that conditioning with Dexters symmetry.
Milo Milo Nobody besides Ronnie beats a 2011 Phil in his prime.
@Milo Milo Dexter's resume speaks for itself .
@Tyler Vera Very good chance of it .

Love him or hate him, but you cannot deny that Shaw is Not a Coward. I respect Him
T U facts
100 100 100
Antn E 👊
Toronto Muscle 🙏
He calls it as he sees it.
Didn’t hear Shawn “slam” Phil. Nor did he seem to be “defending” Olympia. The man was just talking from an educated perspective. Respect to Shawn.
I hate it when interviewers think it makes them seem more important or thoughtful if they are holding a pen in their hands.
Agreed
😂😂
James lets see you interview the guys pbd has
oh dear! you sensitive soul... you must be a mask wearer surely lol 🤣🥴
Cent percent agreed,the interviewer is ignorant🤣🤣
How did he get those sunglasses off Shawn 🤔😆
Beetlejuice4Senate wow I didn’t know that, must be frightening
Beetlejuice4Senate similar to gregg, he had an injury and his pupil doesn’t work on one eye
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Derek hicks rumor has it that he underwent a 10 hour operation to have them surgically removed.
Not sure why his nickname is "Sugar" since he never sugar coats anything! He tells it like he sees it............have to admire that quality.
It's because he looks like Sugar Ray Leonard
Fuck Shawn ray dudes a doiche
@@christian_urocar Triggered ❄❄❄
Leonard was big then in boxing.
Jake Colson If you can’t tell he’s a douche your an idiot . The guy said he whooped dexter in his prime . In 99’ lmao.. that was dexters first olympia. Dexter didn’t prime til 07-12. It’s ok to be brash but not senseless . Interview lee priest and you’ll see what I mean lol
Shawn Ray and Flex Wheeler had almost flawless physiques. The mass monsters were just in Vogue at the time.
Agreed. I’d say Flex at his best smokes Ray at his best. Flex has the best body I’ve ever seen.
Kevin Levrone was also insanely impressive at his peak. Excellent symmetry. 90s were just a different level entirely.
@@Bit2brain I haven’t heard that name in a min lol. I agree Levrone is definitely in this conversation. In fact I’d say Flex and Levrone tbh. Lol Flex at his best though🥶
@@CHSN-1 in fact Shawn thinks that too. "Flex when he's on is Mr. Olympia"
to me Kevin Lev rone had the best physique of all time. Very asthetic pleasing body
Anyone who hates Shawn is insecure and overly sensitive. This guy is a successful and proud guy. Respect to him!
I don't know about that. It seems more likely that he's an asshole and you have no idea what you're talking about
And hes one of the most aesthetic and consistent bodybuilders ever. His physique was virtually flawless...
@@mitchellhayman381 youre insecure and over sensitive
Insanely interesting personality could watch days of his interviews, doesn’t care just says what he believes. And one of the most pleasing physiques to grace the stage.
Salutes to you my boi
El sonbaty was my all time favourite
I loved his physique back in the day. Perfect symmetry. His height is simply why he could never beat the taller guys on stage. That is the bottom line.
Abdul-Rahim Nasser Bias just because you share the same ethnicity.
I Isaiah 😂😂 that and he had a sick physique mate
Rebel Lucy if there was a 212 division back then that would’ve been crazy.
Best bodybuilding interview yet! Shawn will always be the guy nobody wants to listen to but everyone should.
Always speaks with 100% sense and clarity, absolute legend
Shawn Ray is always on the money when he speaks. Incredible physique too. 90's era of bodybuilding was just unbelievable.
The best and most competitive era
It was the peak. CZcams kindly recomm need Shawn rays back workout and I was absolutely blown away by the balance of mass and aesthetics. Hence why I'm here.
Patrick lowkey can't handle the interview 😂. Shawn knows where he stands while patrick just annoyed by his smart answers he starts cutting him off. Lmaoooo
Pat just wanted to argue.
@Nate Jones A thick Indian or Pakistani accent can be endearing, but his slight accent is as annoying as fuck. You can tell that he is an asshole. The set looks like something a little boy would design. A pathetic dude, still into comic books, super hero's (body builders remind him of them) and mobsters. "New money" at its worst.
Interviewer: 'you can't say that tho'
Shawn: *stares* 'but who is?'
Interviewer; *panics* "i am agreeing with you, I don't know the world...'
haha get the hell out dude, you want to start a fight but becomes a coward at the first moment of being put into a tough spot. He just mindlessly repeats every last sentence the interviewee says as a question pretending that he is engaged in the conversation. classic 'communication' technique out of a 2 dollar book which the way he employs it shows more disrespect than curiosity for the topic. If someone talks to me like that, that person is getting slapped.
@@hamsumdoggo5586 🤣. That's right up there with his "interesting"
Yeah, he is clown. And what a nose, the interviewer can smoke 🚬 in the rain 🌧 with that nose
This was a very intense interview, very impressed by this. Hat's off to you Patrick on another awesome video !!
How are you done watching this it's two hours long and only 30 minutes up?
@@brucepower3429 watch at 2x
No man ever takes another man's girlfriend. The girlfriend simply chooses another man. Take the L, Man-Up and go find another girlfriend. Love Shawn's take on that.
That's one of the main rules of manhood. Unfortunately it's not taught to young man today.
Lol that's black and white thinking but I get your point. If she goes to him and it was easy...than she was already planning on leaving her bf anyways. Some women will stay with bf while finding another one cause they can't stand being single but they were already done really....
But a guy who goes for a chick with a man without her hinting shes looking for another one is a weasel.
He's full of shit lol. Lee already sId he never cared Shawn dated her years after
Adventure Inc how do yk the dude wasn’t already eyeing the girl before she got in a relationship? It don’t make them a scum if the girl just so happened to come around
Or better yet, recognize that the other man did you a favor, and let him suffer instead of you ;)
Shawn ray is a class act he just wants everyone who competes to eat & get paid decent money 400 grand to the winner zero to the the lasts places it’s a disgrace Shawn is right
Thank you Patrick for these interviews! I went to an amateur bodybuilding contest in Minneapolis in 1991 and I was hooked! I was already training, but now got serious. I wanted to train to compete! Then I blew my shoulder out and I was done. Now I'm 51 years old and consciously put the "gym intensity" into my relationship with God and my family...and I'm blessed! Now, hopefully you can interview the Lee's...Haney & Lebrada...my favorites.
God is great!
Shawn is 100% right about the pay having to go beyond the top 10. It's a joke that Pro Athletes who have to actually PAY an entrance fee to enter competitions, PAY yearly to renew their IFBB memberships, and PAY for everything involved including travel & hotel expense, not to mention the enormous cost of getting ready for these events. Promoters are charging big money for spectators to attend.... This reminds me of the way NCAA treat their players while generating a fortune. If you want to compare this to Capitalism, if feels a bit more like Apple setting shop in Asia employing Child Labour. Great show as always Patrick!!!
John Vella nobody is putting a gun to their head to make em pay
Lol nobody is charging big money for spectators to attend. It's not a UFC event
You know how majority of mma fighters get by? Lots of guys are fighting for 8+8k and 12+12K (2nd part only if you win. Nate Diaz was fighting on main events for 20+20K before a few flukes got him the Conor fight which changed his tax bracket. Miesha won her UFC title fighting for 40-45K. Rory McDonald & Robbie Lawler had a life altering brutal main event fight where Rory got 59K.
This a sport worth billions but also where a lot of athletes need 2nd jobs to be able to eat. And others leave the sport for financial reasons. That is the definition of a semi pro sports: some get paid enough to make a living, some need a 2nd job, a few make bank.
Bodybuilding is like acting. A lot of them are "professional actors/bodybuilders" but few make money from their profession.
I cant believe I watched 2 hours and was never bored. This interview was epic
Kiss ass. Typical Phil kinda guy...
Philip Quist he’s a very smart man
In old school I watch 240p video I see them like 4k hdr . How details there body in old school
Interview is very cool. Each sec 🔥
Shawn was
A major inspiration to me as a smaller weightlifter. Always in shape, always beautiful to look at, and smart. Good for him for calling out all the political BS. A giant killer and should have been a once or twice Olympia.
He doesn't speak broken Englsh. It's normal. You should move.
Most epic and informative 2 hours bodybuilding interview! Much respect for Shawn Ray! Beautiful personality.
I don’t think he slams Phil Heath
How about
“Shawn Ray his honest opinion “
Yeah
Yeah the title is bullshit
Lol more like "Phil would've won if it wasn't for his gut" more than giving him a honest critique of Phil
@Milo Milo agree, but I rather hear Shawn talk.
@Milo Milo Absolutely. The guy is an annoying insurance salesman, who became "an interviewer".And, as you said, he likes to listen to himself and brag about his "managerial skills". He is as irritating as his accent!
This guy is as real as it gets. We need more people like this.
He’s a loser. He fucking trash talks athletes that would crush him in his prime. He’s basically the same as fat nerd in Highschool that becomes a cop writing tickets to every fucking guy he pulls over that he’s jealous of which is everyone lol
Wayne Barfield lmao I guess he beat you 😂
Joshua Whitley lol no bro i was a kid when he was on stage. But literally he tries criticizing guys that just are out of his league in his prime. If someone is off and looks like shit then yea call them out but when you talk trash about guys that are top ten in the world and are on point and you claim they aren’t in shape when they are peeled it’s ignorant. Being a hater is not being a analyst.
Snowflakes can't stand it
I like Shawn, but he is spiteful and holds grudges with people.
Shawn can hold his own in any discusion. But Lee Priest is not running from anything. He is just being Lee and i love it!
the interview started out ok - but then the host wanted to debate Shawn as if he knew more than Shawn.. com'on man show some respect for your guest next time - people want to watch an interview not a freaking debate.
interviewer is a jacka55 fan boy of dorian.
Don't like it don't watch.. This guy is a bitch and he deserves disrespect.
@@AverageJak can you blame him.. I also am a big fan of dorian... But that has nothing to do with this guy being a whiny bitch.. .deep down you know he could never beat dorian on his best fucking day.
I actually like this interviewer
The interviewer is one of the best so you need to watch your mouth. Get in line boy
Patrick asks a question:
Some bodybuilding legends: look man...situation is...you know how it works...
Some others: nah man, he is cool, they are really good...it's fine, times change...
...
*(no)Sugar(coating) Shawn Ray: These guys wouldn't make top10 back in the day! This other guy is literally accountable for many pros living with 1 kidney...we are not friends and never were!*
I love the honesty of Shawn, I think he's a great guy. An asshole in a sense, but this overly PC world needs intelligent assholes like him!
Nah people just think that people who tell whole truth are assholes.
You're a pussy.
True no one like the guy who says how it is
@steveninthe *political
@steveninthe I am not from the States and I would rather vote for a golden retriever than for Trump :D But this has nothing to do with any of that.
The sport of bodybuilding needs more people like Shawn Ray who says it like it is and does not sugar coat anything 🇺🇸 👍
@Ferdinand Vanko it's doesn't matter if people hate Shawn Ray at least he has the BALLS to tell the truth about all the BS in the sport of bodybuilding
@Pure Precision - But he's the one right now putting in work for the man and women athletes of the IFBB and the only other person speaking representing the athletes in the IFBB is Bob Ciccarello and that's pretty much it
@Ferdinand Vanko - never mind you don't get it and you probably never will, you have a have a nice day
THE OPERATOR 101 what you fail to see if there have been others in the past and still to this day that do this without all this shine.. besides Shawn doesn’t do shit for the ifbb and no one in the ifbb really cares or else things would have changed by now.. this is all media/entertainment/ views
@@christian_urocar - Do your homework cause everyone already knows that there's alot of problems in the IFBB still to this very day
Now THAT'S an interview worth watching and I watched all 2 hours, 9 minutes and 22 seconds. I could have easily watched 3 hours or more of content with you and Shawn. Well done. 💪 😎👍
I agree, saw the whole interview. Shawn always has a great insight on bodybuilding and If he would have ran it, I feel it would be way better off today.
I watched 2 minutes and 22 secs. The shit was getting deep.
Shaun has always been a massive inspiration and his passion for the sport has made him such an ambassador and he always tells it as it is good for him.
@@kelvindawe5123 Shawn
Shawn seems like a pretty genuine knowledgeable guy. There is difference between cocky and confident. Shawn is confident in the sport and what he knows about the sport. And it shows.
I've always liked Shawn Ray. He does seem arrogant at times, but I think he deserves respect.
He commands respect.
True
Competition alone there is respect . But his opinions like say on dexter and all that .. it’s a bunch of crap to me ..
Chris Artiga I agree and if it makes you feel any better just remember Dexter has a sandow. I respect Shawn but his opinions can be a little ridiculous at times.
Shawn is 54 years old. He looks a bit younger!
He's black, almost everyone who's black look younger than they are
His voice is also very youthful.
Black don’t crack
@@Polandsyndromebodybuilding Neither does fat.
Black don't Crack
Shawn is very articulate. No stammering. No loss of words. Highy intelligent. He's a class act and an advocate for fairness and support of the athletes in his sport. The Weiders had a good influence on him.
As other people have noted, Pat, usually great with his comments, questions and analysis, is rather contentious and, to be honest, heartless in this interview. Shawn stays very calm and holds his own.
At TIME 1:04:30, Pat is totally trying to bully and insult Shawn. Shawn stays cool. Never seen Pat like this. He clearly doesn't like Shawn Ray becasue Ray isn't rolling over to Pat's display of male dominance.
This was genuinely interesting to watch. Always appreciated Shawn speaking his mind. Great bodybuilder and one of my favourites from the older generation.
You’re not top 1%, you’re not the top 1% of 1%, you’re the top 1% of 1% of 1% the-one-of-a-kind.
Something I feel about Shawn is he's so professional he the only guy that act as if bodybuilding mainstream. He can carry himself and the sport very well.
Philip: you are quick to forget that you were calling out judges...
Shawn: and I never missed a contest in 32 years.
SLAM DUNK!
This guy is trying to create an argument out of everything Shaun Ray says.
Devil's advocate
Thats how you draw people out.
shawn ray back in the 90s would wipe the floor at the Mr O today, no doubt about that. he had a beautiful aesthetic physique, better than todays fuglies.
Been waiting for the full interview. All the clips have been teasing me.
Great interview/conversation. I love how these two completely disagree but can still civilly make their points. I also love how they both are willing to listen to each other. Love to both guys.
All things considered. ALL. THINGS. CONSIDERED. Shawn Ray is bodybuilding. He has worn every hat and worn it at the highest levels. Competitor, agitator, businessman, promoter, media, commentator, emcee, etc.
Shawn is more relevant to bodybuilding retired than 99% of current competitors!!
The best bodybuilding interview I've seen on your show so far. Shawn has a lot of personality and does not hold back.
Shawn speaks well and he is right. To me, Shawn had one of the best most symmetrical physiques
This interview made the last two days worth of cardio a damn breeze. Thank you, Shawn was amazing!
I like Shawn now. I didn't dislike him before, but I like and and definitely respect him more now.
Hey CZcams, fuck your censorship you fucking pedophiles
I haven't decided whether I love him or hate him. I just know there will be nothing in between.
@mike gallimore lmao
T6C me too
Was impressed how Shawn conducted himself very professional and knowledgable carried the interview very well poor interviewer tried to provoke and manipulate most of the questions at the beginning he was clueless have respect for Shawn...eat humble pie at the end...
Love him or hate him, Shawn is one of the smartest guys in body building and to be honest, I agree with most of what he says...
@Chris Seymour not a fan of Mr Ray then?
I actually love how Shawn put Samir in his personal 'top 5' best bodybuilders of all time. I gained so much respect for Shawn after this interview.
Would love to see Kevin Levrone soon. As he is the only legend from the 90's thats not been on the show. But still the best interview was that of Shadow and Ronnie
Mathew mathew2708 bc he knows how to enjoy his life, music&seminaries , others like Shawn & Flex just can’t let their past , even Ronnie can’t be regardless of that
Kevin is legend but really find his interviews bland and just toes the line
I couldn't watch more than 5min of Ronnie' s interview.I can't stand him talking and him laughing all the time for no reason...
@@surayatimol2385 Agreed. He's very egotistical too. Most of those elite guys from that era were and have let that trait go but Kevin seems to have held onto it.
@@flangmasterj did not look at it that way tbh bro,but there are 2 bodybuilders I just switch off too,Kai Greene and kev,and love kevs physique,a legendary bodybuilder.
But both just tag you along in interviews,they never want to answer questions or if they do,they stay politically correct.for example this interviewer asked Shawn some provacative questions,he answered them,the guy even thanked him for pushing back,just keeps you intrigued coz you feel you really getting to know their feelings.
Kevin levrone,shown ray,flex wheeler. the legends the mhyts
Shawn is very authentic and well spoken... he was absolutely right to call out Chad Nichols and anybody who disagrees with him doing so, doesn't really care about the competitors in the sport....
Great interview. I love the segment where he talks about his father. Shawn's story reminds me of Barry Sanders talking about how HE didn't want to work for his father's roofing company.
Yeah, I never heard Shawn talk about this before.
Something is slightly off with the audio Mario. it's making patrick sound like a robot
i was thinking the same.
Can't treat Prince Patrick like that
@@lucadorsay242 I believe he is head of social media content or something. He's the guy that organises everything valutetainment
I think that the sensitivity is so high on Shawn's mic (on account of him sitting away from it) that it's also picking up Patrick's voice. So we're hearing two sets of audio phase shifted by milliseconds.
Luka Treska correct
To be really authentic and true to ones self, you have to make peace with not being liked by everyone.
These bodybuilder interviews are by far the best I’ve ever seen. Keep them coming, love hearing these guys stories. Inspiration
Interviewer looks like he’s on speed or adderall...wide eyed and intense. Relax guy..it’s just a conversation
He takes himself and his show extremely serious. Probably thinks he's like the MJ or Ali of interviewing.
This interview isn’t even as bad as others
I think he was just intimidated by Shawn
I cannot wait to hear this interview.
Shawn Ray is one of the best that never won the Mr O. He is also one of the best posers ever too. You cannot see a great posing routing without watching at least watching a Shawn Ray clip.
This was by far the best bodybuilding interview on this channel so far. Good enough to consider contacting Shawn as a guest on a regular basis.
He's always well-spoken, honest and provocative enough to not let the conversation get stale. I agree with Patrick in a sense that Olympia should do more as a brand but Ray is good at pointing out that there should be some more "meat" behind that argument so that it would not dilute into cheap populism. As Branch Warren, another famous bodybuilder once said - nobody owes you a God damned thing. So maybe both the bodybuilders and the Olympia should listen to the "be so good and present that they can't ignore you even if they wanted to" philosophy. I think that's what helped Shawn in his career as a competitor and an analyst.
Olympia should maybe consider having their own channel with dedicated podcasts, talking to current and former champions, possible challengers and updating us on a regular basis about who is qualified through interviews and reviews. Maybe even have a sweet video round table with notable bodybuilders to preview and conclude the event.
Also it should lean more heavily on its "crown jewel" characteristic. Mr. Olympia is THE bodybuilding competition, the world cup - if any brand has the clout, integrity and authority to speak about current bodybuilding events and cover exciting news in the sport...well maybe it's "the event"...
Solomon already had a great internet radio-show with Chic and if I'm not mistaken they were able to talk with all the Mr.Olympia champions throughout their seasons on air.
It's a sport that is entering this digital era in a sluggish manner. And if there's a banner to rally around and speed the process up - it's the Olympia banner. They don't have to be spectacular from the start - but start is what they have to do.
Powerful interview, this really needed to happen. Thanks Pat for this interview.
Shawn is one of the all time greats even though he didn’t win the Olympia. He was a great balance of mass and shape.
Always knew this would be the greatest bodybuilder interview ever. No one is as candid as The Stingray. Plus let's face it...No bodybuilder is this articulate and accomplished at the same time. Loved every minute of it.
'articulate'?
@@toorpat1410 late reply but there's no bodybuilder who is more articulate than shawn ray. Maybe Dorian but no one else.
@@demharoonali7699 not even dorian is.
Awesome stuff Pat your interviews are always wonderful. The sound though is not as good as other videos..
My only issue with these recent interviews is that it’s pretty clear the host has little insight into the core aspects of bodybuilding. I don’t see how he can attempt to debate Shawn. This is more of an interview with the host’s attempts of interjection. When he gets backed into a corner, he’ll bring up sports he knows about. Bodybuilding is unlike any other sport, so the parallels are not as clear as the host might think.
Well said... Its a cult sport
%100 agree with everything you said.
Great interview and a very knowledgeable and eloquent man is Shawn Ray. Along with Samir, Paris, Makkaway, Arnold, Demey, one of the best physiques and intelligent minds that ever graced the Olympia stage!. Long live 80s bodybuilding. Undoubtedly the best era!
Best statement he said was "These guys are lucky Dexter is not 10 years younger" that is a FACT!! He would be up there with Ronnie or Haney.
Who's Dexter?
Valhalla Jackson
Shawn ray was probably more honest to himself than other bodybuilders.🤷♂️🤷♂️
Not just the best bodybuilding interview but one of the best interviews I've ever seen. Always been a fan of Shawn
This guy, the host no matter where he is probably thinks he's the smartest guy in the room. He's trying to create conflict where there is none.
Yeah, dumb title. He did slam everybody else more than he did Heath, except Lee Haney and Lebrada.
1:06:00 Interviewer blowing his own horn again. Every interview this happens
I went to 106 to see what you were talking about & you're right'..He should interview himself & call it "The Narcissist"
Frederick John Picarello Well he did interview himself recently
@@MarkWhippy that's a great question Mark! lol!
He’s full of shit
Love him or hate him Shawn is an intelligent man who doesn't take any bullshit. Literally tells it like it is regardless if you're his friend or worst enemy. Respect for Shawn Ray.
Wow. I fallowed Ray's entire career, I had a entire misconception of him. He is an advocate and a voice for bodybuilding. A very amazing man.
Wow!
Fuking wow!
This is was an epic interview! Shots fired!
Thank you so much! I needed something good to listen to. As a matter of fact, i purposely missed my exit on the freeway and drove further until i listened to this whole interview.
Great interview!!!
When I was younger I used to HATE this man no matter what he was saying because more often than not he was speaking against my favorite bodybuilder....how ignorant I was 🤦🏾♂️ because Shawn literally EMBODIES what speaking out against bullshit really means 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 his approach may be repulsive at times but you have to admit he knows exactly wtf he's talking about 🧘🏾♂️
1:08:53, Shawn Ray is dead ass correct about the Brand and Phil Heath. The Interviewer is not only wrong, he is acting like an emotional women who cannot accept the man's opinion on the subject. Let it go, Cupcake.
He's Bias! He Loves Phil
Hahah
100% agree.
Dude what are you talking about? Phil is one of the greatest of all time, 7 OLYMPIA TITLES. Shawn hasn’t even won a single title. What he says doesn’t matter, he’s jealous of Phil’s success
@@JDayFitness LOL. Dude, by your comment, its clear you do not comprehend what was being said. The Olympia does NOT need Phil, nor anybody else. Phil can die tomorrow and it would have ZERO effect on the Olympia Ticket Sales. Just like ANY other bodybuilder.....the "Show" goes on without them. Ray's comments have ZERO to do with Like or disliking Phil....this is a Topic about Business and Business ONLY.
Great interview. Big Shawn Ray fan. Sat through the whole interview, and never got bored.
We could've heard more from shawn if pat wasnt interrupting him every freaking minute
This series is so good man
I actually met Shawn Ray at the airport once, and he was the nicest guy ever!
@my name is DRAKE Hope you didn’t ask him while he was pissing at the urinal LOL I wouldn’t blame Shawn for his reaction if that was the case.
Shawn Ray is the sole reason I started taking working out serious. Similar height and everything. Thanks man
Great interview, met Shawn, Samir & Mike Christian at the 2016 Olympia after party very nice guys, got a great group photo, pic of a lifetime!
Good. Kevin is next.
P.s. Patrick must run Mr. Olympia.
I concur!!
Patrick is gonna interview Kevin?
The most incredible interview I ever seen in bodybuilding.. so realistic.
This was a great interview. I started not to watch it because it’s so long but it was worth watching. Shawn is knowledgeable and the back and forth of these two made it interesting.
I love this discussion! Bring on more! So much to learn from these interviews.
I cant remember the last time i sat down to watch a whole interview for 2hrs! purely entertaining and very informative! u gotta love shawn, love these interviews would love to see arnold, haney, jay and def big ramy!
Never thought I would say this but; Shawn made more sense than this narrator attempted to make during this discussion. Shawn is very much underrated in his ability to communicate.No its not arrogant, its reality, No champion can dictate to an organization as established as the Olympia. Yelling got this guy nowhere...Every time Shawn makes a valid point here, the narrator goes off comparing the case in point to another completely different scenario. I found it annoying and Shawn earns props here in my mind.
How is this interview slamming anyone? Jesus he is just being honest. No slamming....
I agree with just about everything he says...
No
Great watch, love the honesty from Shawn and the fact that Patrick pushed back "you are sensitve" lol. Throughly enjoyed this, thank you!
Headphones in, the sound is not right. Just an FYI
yeah there is an echo
Sounds like David's mic is off...maybe you can adjust it somehow?
Or in the car.
It’s a phase issue between the mics
I think they're 👽 s 😅
Wow! Great interview. I have definitely changed my opinion on Shawn Ray. He's very articulate and really a visionary for the sport of bodybuilding. I hold him up there with the best. Amazing!
Shawn Ray is my favorite bodybuilder and person in the fitness industry. You just can’t find someone as honest as this in the industry.
"Thank you and Shawn Ray. It was a very informative, honest and intelligent interview. Simply awesome"!👍🏻💪🏼🧠👊🏼✌🏼🙏🏻
Straight forward voice no sugar coating
Komal Rani pun intended
