Man I just don't get it. Ben Pakulski must be well off to be traveling to Europe, knowing he will place next to dead last????? I mean what's the pay off ? Plane fare, Hotel, food, etc, ... Only to not make one single dollar? I guess some BB's are delusional! *Side note: Ben has world class legs and a beginner gym rat upper torso. A      (Reverse Levrone) .. Seriously, does anyone have an answer?

At best, Pakulski has a state level upper body.

If Rhoden comes in a little drier and tighter around the midsection he will win or else Dexter will win because unlike everyone else Dexter doesn't come in OFF.

TheOne: Correct! Dexter at least makes money by placing in the money every show. He has surpassed even the great 90's guys, as he has more wins than anyone ever!!!! And he's not done!!!!  :o

Dexter should win it but they will probably give it to Rhoden.

ben pakulsi has a massive online following, making crazy bank from the forum/online training.

doesn't need to win - he's global if he competes, and it's great for his business.

Ben makes really good money putting on seminars, his MI40 thing, own a gym in Tampa, etc... I think competing for him is just taking a break from everything else he does. Kind of like an active vacation. Plus, if he actually likes competing, then why not do it more often? No matter the outcome.

On the other hand, I completely agree with you, he looked awful at this Mr. O. Looked flat, small, even his legs looked to be down in size.
