Flex WHEELER and Shawn RHODEN - Side by side FDB!

[GraniteCityDon]

Its not about Rhoden being as good as or even better than Wheeler, its about comparing the shape both guys had and acknowledging Rhoden is as close to Wheeler as anyone has been. I very much doubt he will finish his career as accomplished as Flex, but the man is riding on the crest of a very high wave right now and its a relief to see.

Forget if's, but's and maybe's, he is probably the one guy that most casual fans would prefer to look like and destroys everyone in the modern era for shape.

  Why not just give Shawn his credit for the now? 4th and 3rd are very high placings in the top of the sport... the Mr. Olympia

Yes he looks reminiscent. Rhoden is bigger and not as cut. Flex had a little cooler build all in all imo.

Don't forget Beyeke. He has shape too and reminds people of Flex. He too needs to be sharper.

Shawn has better legs and torso than Flex;  Flex has better arms and muscle bellies + separation



WooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Yes, genetically Shawn's physique is closest to Flex's now---but he and Melvin lacked Flex's roundness, and separation.

If Shawn had a well defined back, he'd be number 2 right now, and possibly a future Arnold Classic winner.

  If Flex had glutes he would be Mr. Olympia.

Flex by a country mile

Flex is like the 3rd greatest of all time

[Disgusted]

Flex's back destroys Rhodens

[Bevo]

Nobody comes close to look as good in FDB like Flex Wheeler than Shawn Rhoden.
GREAT BODYBUILDERS.

I've seen Rhoden when he was up here training with Ronnie

Haha no intensity that Paul dillett would be proud

He doesn't look impressive either in person IMO

Now flex in person I remember in 99 when I lived in CA when he was training with Cormier had pop!! Flex looked good in person, super round muscles , perfect shape

But Chris was the underrated bber for sure

[arce1988]

 Chris got a 3rd and a 2nd?

[Bevo]

Chris got a 3rd and a 2nd?

Against Ronnie, flex and levrone too

[che]

[mesmorph78]

  If Flex had glutes he would be Mr. Olympia.

If people are comparing these two then they know nothing about bodybuilding
