Definitely needs to improve his back, but looks great. His front upper body came up a lot in the past year; very impressive!

chest is really small

Lee Priest, Eric Frankhouser, and Flex Lewis all have that going on.  It's simply a requirement of having that structure.  Phil Heath has the same thing actually, and it's all because of one thing:  their delts and arms are so outrageous.  Levrone, all the same thing.  We'd may as well be a little more forgiving of the fact that they will likely never "fix" this perceived imbalance and just accept that it really just serves to make their delts and arms more appreciable, which really is it's own brand of look...actually it's one of the main ones anymore that makes a guy like me want to train harder to achieve that aesthetic.  That aesthetic is one that helped define the 90's as perhaps still the pinnacle of the sport.

flex lewis is going to be an outstanding IFBB pro.  He took 2nd to DHenry at the Tampa Pro, and his legs were better than Henry's in their posedown.  DH had him beat on upper body muscularity, but he has everyone beat on that.  Flex is only in his 2nd show.

Future is bright.

He's starting to look like he belongs in the pros - his torso has been brought up considerably to match his legs and his conditioning has always been good. One of the most improving guys out there at the moment.

So is silvio and I think flex looks better than silvio an he always is beating taller guys.

How come no one said he looks like Lee Priest...I was almost sure it was him at the first pic.

You people are slipping!

Great shape on his legs, but his middle back disappears when he hits a back double bi. His chest is also unproportionate to his lower body in front poses and to his arms/delts in side shots.

Nah, needs lots more help from "Cmon Diesel" in the back dept and a thicker chest.

Otherwise, he's unstoppable in his quest for top 5 in the O.

Dry as fuck and awesome hams, what a pro should look like, though his height probably going to keep him from the top.

What was that comment for?  Yes he looks great but he has no chest(maybe genetic).

Flex lookes great. He looked great at the Tampa Pro.
His back still needs alot of work. David Henry was at another level.

Flex Lewis has great lines.  Needs a little more delts also.
One of my favorites.

He has that unique look to his muscle, it's crazy.

its not even about conditionning, his muscles have a special "hardness" to them, hard to explain.

in 2-3 years, he will winning some shows in the open no matter how short he is

Agreed. He has that unique thickness similar to Michael Lockett and Armin Scholz.

Looks great, great conditioning, arms, hams. But he has no real shape, he's just muscle, no taper.  He's more complete than Lee Priest. He's like a 21st century version of Jason Arntz
