Dexter is small compared to the three guys above him. I think he has been on the decline since 2012. He really was his best in 09. We'll see but I have him 4th and Roelly 5th. On the Euro tour I could see that dec had lost some of his strengths. His waist is wider, and his legs are down. He is a great bb don't get me wrong but he's 45!

Size has never been a factor.Dexter has on 11 occasions made top 6 ahead of much bigger,better guys than some of those in this Arnold's line-up. As for his legs being down,maybe a bit but it could well be a case of an increase in upper body mass that's accentuating that look.The waist getting wider ,you know it's relative. He will be overpowered size wise ,no doubt about that but then just 4 months ago he beat guys like Juan Morel and Big Ramy who could arguably place top 3 in the Arnold lineup.

Unless dex has totally lost it, Compton is the only dude that can beat him. I think we have seen the best from the rest of the lineup. And thier best doesn't beat a 90% dex. Compton is the only one that we havnt seen his peak yet

I had a dream. Cedric is winning."I saw an image of prejudging of Chris Aceto baby-feeding Cedric some "more or less clean food" saying : "Dammit, You won't order anything from the regular menu this time, not until we took 1st place". I heard Native American (Cherokees maybe) in my dream too, I don't know everything was so blury in my dreams.

If I had to judge the show.
1) Cedric (he delivered this time, really … ) / Justin Compton, amazed by his size , aesthetics and conditioning. Very impressive
2) Cedric or Justin
3) Dexter Jackson (Still sharp as a blade, but clearly out massed by Justin and Cedric, whom have both amazing aesthetics, conditioning and flow too
4) Evan Centopani
5) Branch Warren (Great conditioning, but Beat up back , Torn Lower lats ? ) I'm definitely not a fan of his physiq.
6 Roelly Winklaar (because of the conditioning the muscle he brings is phenomenal. Best advice would be : hire Chris Aceto or George Farah or Chad Nichols) But do it quickly
I clearly don't know what happened. But Congratulation to Dexter !

Yeah, Cedric was on.I knew Branch would be in there somewhere.Someone did mention him in a thread here somewhere and I agreed with them on the idea that he would place well. Didn't someone here say that Chad doesnt bother with big names anymore ?

Even Dexter had that "pregnant male" look from behind after getting bigger to compete against the mass monsters. The last bastion of aesthetics for men is MPD, & we'll see if that category has the traction to go big in the bodybuilding world--so far it has not.

This is what I'm talking about. Not trying to diss Dexter, though. He had better aesthetics than the others in his category of competition. & without getting bigger, he probably couldn't have stayed competitive.

Notice Jose's tight waist from the back. No "pregnant man" look.
