In a fair world judged by people with eyes yes, in the IFBB Judge's world, I doubt it, Shawn didnt have any gut so likely no.

damn that's a hard one.

I'd say no in today's standarts.
Shawn was drier and had better details and taper, but Dexter would be too thick and would beat him from the rear

honestly I dont think so

If its true that Dexter weighed in at 235lbs than it means he outweighs a prime Shawn Ray by 25lbs and is shorter than Shawn!
Shawn at his best was 206-210, any higher and he couldnt hold his amazing condition

Right great point , Dex could outmuscle him and match him on conditioning and his back is wider

I think the same about 5'6"  Dex is sometimes listed at 5'7"

Is this a joke?

Shawn 1994 would mop the floor with Dex.  Just because you're heavier doesn't mean you'll look bigger.

I think Shawn beats dex in every pose from pretty much every angle.

no gut (vaccum)
better back double bi
better abs
better quads
no inverted taper.

lets see some shots from last night to compare to these of shawn at his best:

25 pounds on much a small frame that would be very noticeable

Post by: bodybuilder1234 on September 28, 2008, 06:46:20 AM
Shawn would look smaller from the front just like Phil Heath against Dexter..

Dexter would be wider and thicker than Shawn Ray with equal condition

Shawn looks much better IMO.

Shawn must be a little sad that the judges finally awarded a quality over Mass physique, but that they never did that for him. If the judging criteria that was used last night was used in Shawn's day, he may have won at least once.

Post by: @Brandon on September 28, 2008, 08:38:57 AM
Not sure what shawn would look like now,
Shawn used to look great.

The drug combos are different now.
If he responds well to the slin megadosing he have a chance.

If he look like he did years ago, then he would have a hard time.

Dexter is a tad shorter, bigger, wider, fuller, with bigger
traps, delts, legs and arms
not much diff in conditioning.

Dex delts look 20%bigger than Shawns Delts.

Shawn would look hard as nails but flat in comparison.

I think Dex would take it.

Try Silvio vs Shawn.

Good Point, Shawn its in another league would have been MR.O 3 years straight now.

Sgt. D is a better BBer than anything on stage last night, or Jay the year before (but not Wolf 07).

shawn has an old skool physique, dexter already has a chemical look.

in comparing those shots of shawn to dex, its amazing how little detail dex actually has compared to shawn.

he looks smooth as hell compared to him. -esp. that back double bi

no contest whatsoever.

Dex has like 15 lbs on the best Shawn but to me they are about equal. Shawns shape is superior I'll say. Lats down to the lower back, calves, and better abs on Shawn. Can Dexter do a vacuum?

Post by: johnny1 on September 28, 2008, 07:05:52 PM
Shawn @ his best (94) should beat Dexter in the shape Dexter brought to the O this year, at the A/C this year Dex looked Fantastic alot drier all-round and that package would be a better one against a 94 Ray, good enough to beat shawn..more than likey not, however who knows what the Judges would do with a 94 Ray against a 2008 A/C Dexter

Shawn competed at 205-215 vs dex 235
that is a 20-30lbs weightadvantage.
Dex dont look 30lbs bigger, maybe he is thicker.

I think so. Shawn was very complete and diced to hell. look at his quads, but dex is just a monster for his size. I dont know that shawn ever got over 210 and frankly it might have effected his mid section had he.

Post by: TrapsMcLats on September 28, 2008, 09:18:57 PM
Shawn destroys every version of dex and right now shawn is thinking "oh sunuva bitch..." and his hatred of the IFBB is growing even larger.  Give shawn this entire offseason to prepare for the Olympia and he would be ready and would beat dexter.  He is ten times the bodybuilder Dex is.

Shawn should give serious thought to making a comeback. He is only 43. He could probably get in great shape one more time.

because Shawn was absolutely dwarfed like a little baby. Hope this helps.
