Post away!

Why? He win was well deserved.....last year as well.

He's not impressive to look at
he's narrow
he's small
he's short
he gets beat in most poses
known synthol abuser
for a "ripped" guy, has many smooth parts (where are his quads)
weak back (got owned by heath, cutler, freeman)
reverse taper
i think thats a good start.

;) the truth !

Yes but who should have won instead at the last olympia?

Wolf or Heath
actually... ronny rockel would've been a better small guy.

I'd like to see Wolfe as Mr. Olympia but unfortunately i think Heath was better.

Wolfe was off a bit and heath was on, plus heath has the edge or back currently. Soon Wolfe will own Heath, but on that day, heath was more complete.
-
But Heath is narrow too. The same would have been said about him.
Wolf just wasn't good enough.

Heath is narrow, yes, but he beat dexter in most poses. And he seems to have a better personality.
-
I would rather go with Toney if it wasn't for his pec tear.
Would be a great Mr. O.
-
Wolf has it all what it takes. The only question is if he can put it all together, and if it was a good idea to hook up with Teh Chad. Otherwise in 2-3 years he'll be ready.
In the meantime we still have that guy who gets dwarfed at 4th tier European GPs as Mr. Olympia and representative of the sport.

Thats the biggest true and problem.

I agree that he isn't the perfect Mr. O, but nobody else could convincingly beat him at the last O.

Damn how's that for perspective? Try explaining to ANYone that the middle guy is mr O and the others are third tier.
-
perhaps why dex is mr o becomes clear if you ll bother posting other pics from that comp besides that one
-
He's not the most photogenic person for bodybuilding magazine covers, that's for sure.
-
There have been tons of comparison pics that show him getting owned.

couldnt have said it better.
dex has been overated for a long, long time.
guy would be in the bottom of the top 10 against the guys of the 90's.
-
what i don't get why people tout him as having an aesthetic, flowing physique. there's nothing pleasing to his look in the slightest. If you want a smaller, shorter Mr. O, Rockel was a much better choice.
-
Wolf should be Mr O
he's not perfect but neither is anyone else.
he has the best combo of size and lines out there right now
-

Rockel is way smaller than Dexter everywhere except legs. He would have been an even worse choice.

Rockel has a more classic look, better lines and is more proportionate.
-
Jay or Dennis whould have Won it. NOT Dexter. JMHO.

Maybe but then you could argue for Mark Walhberg as mr O. Just saying out of the two Dexter is the better man.

No way, Marks quads are way behind his upper body and his lower back needs more definition.
-
I like WOLF, he was much better than FLEX made out at the Mr.O;
But Dexter was the best man on the day. Heavily muscled, very good condition, good structure, complete.
To anyone knocking pro bodybuilders not looking massive with clothes on, you're fat ;D. Get some abs out and see how big you look in clothes.

I ain't knocking him for looking small with clothes on, i'm knocking him for looking small onstage.

this thread is useless without clear pictures.
-
I think Heath was in better shape at the Olympia, but that day Dexter had the best physique on the Olympia stage I have no question about it.
And guys...compared him to Kjellstrom and Shelestov??? ::) This is just a joke, right?

Is he, or is he not, getting dwarfed in that pic? Look at that pic and try and tell me a bodybuilder of Mr. O caliber is standing in the middle.

It's one pic, taken from an angle, with poor lighting. We need more proof.

Dexter is the shortest and the best from that trio...
Anyway...the 2008 Mr. Olympia/3 time Arnold Classic champion is standing between Shelestov (who was a 'happy to be there' guy at the Mr. O) and Kjellstrom who maybe will do his Olympia debut 11 months later...
Ridiculous comparison...

no, because if he is getting dwarfed by two nobody's, he shouldn't be Mr. O.
-
totally agree, high ass lats, tiny calves, arms too big for everything else, too short, too narrow.

Hmm...so the Mr. O title is all about height and muscle size...?
-

8 straight with no calves whats the difference?

no, but it should be about a guy who has a presence when he stands amongst others.

Well...there were 19 guys at the Olympia this year. Please tell me 5 competitor who have pro caliber calves...! ::)
Calves means almost nothing in bodybuilding.

And they should , they can't be hidden they can be seen from every angle in every pose

Hey I'd have you as Mr.O before I'd vote for any of these calfless wonders.
-

Well atleast Ronnie's were better than Dexter's !

Yes, throw up some comparison pics.

Better from the rear, would you aggree?

Wolf or Heath
actually... ronny rockel would've been a better small guy.
WOLF LOOKED LIKE SHIT, HEATH IS THE NEW GUY and ROCKEL ....FUGHEDDABOUTIT
-

Probably but that's not saying much
-

WOLF HAS NO CALVES AT ALL!!!!!

True

Probably I have better calves than the whole Mr. O lineup (except Jay) and is it mean something...? Nothing. They're soooo much better bodybuilders than me...without calves... :D
-
ND, don't hijack my thread, this isnt about anyone's calves. its about the fact that dexter is not Mr. O material. If you're going to be a "small but quality" guy, you gotta bring the quality. His arms are big, but not cut (look at his front DB, the most telling pose). He has a reverse taper when he does the FDB. He has no quad cuts, he has a weak back (he got owned especially by heath in the back poses), he is narrow. I just don't see him as the small guy who deserves to topple the giants.

Calves should mean ALOT but these modern day fag judges don't know what to look for :D
-
these modern day fag jugdes don't know what to look for :D
Yep, I feel it this way too... ;D

dude, why all the haterade on homosexuals? You know what they say about people constantly bashing gays don't you? Ever seen american Beauty?

I didn't hijack your thread the point stands if other got away without calves so should he , you think his back is weak? I disagree and he's not that small , small compared to Jay and Wolf but he's 5'6" and competes upwards of 20-25 pounds heavier than Ray at the same height or so he has his flaws as do they all but I think he looked better than Jay he's another transitional Olympia Victor will replace him in 09 if he's on the money
-
Ray looked bigger (maybe not as heavily muscled), posed better, had better conditioning, lines, symmetry and would destroy dexter in every pose. surely you can't disagree.

I think he would beat Dex but not in every pose ! the 90s are gone thats for sure
-
what pose would dex win, most muscular?
FDB- Ray
SC- Ray
RDB-Ray
RLS- Ray
ST- Ray
A&T-Ray
MM-tossup is dex's best hope

Dex is 230 while Ray was 205 tops.
Dex is a great bodybuilder.

Dex is a great bodybuilder.
Ray's superior structure would make him appear larger, regardless of weight.
-
Why? He win was well deserved.....last year as well.
This is true. Best man onstage in 2007.
In 2008, you could have argued for heath as well, but Dex was a deserving winner.
-

If calves like forearms were muscles that could be developed then you would have an argument to make...unfortunately calves can not be developed much more than what their natural size dictates....maybe with HARD AND PERSISTENT work you may eek out an extra inch or two. If a BB has big calves he had big calves even when he did not lift weights. As a matter of fact the people who have the biggest calves in my experience DON'T EVEN WORK OUT!!!!! Just genetics...Same with forearms... But if you know some exercise that will allow anyone to have calves/forearms to the size they desire then please enlighten us all....

There are some pics of dex from 97 or 98 when his calves are pretty oiled up. You don't see that on him anymore.
-
I know he's the coolest serial killer out there I just hope Miguel Prado doesn't flip on him!!!!
-
Dexter= who cares?
-
you fellas are trrriiippppppiiinnnnn
what, you dont like an aesthetic mass monster with sick conditioning and flowing lines???
-
Jay should have won
-
He's not impressive to look at
he's narrow
he's small
he's short
he gets beat in most poses
known synthol abuser
for a "ripped" guy, has many smooth parts (where are his quads)
weak back (got owned by heath, cutler, freeman)
reverse taper
i think thats a good start.
I second that.... I say he doesnt belong in that elite group of mr.O winners.
-
Yeah its going to be weird with Dex as champ.
Dexter is good but he kind of accidently won the Olympia title. Jay showed up WAY off, and Victor was out.
Cant fault Dex though.
-
Post away!
maybe you should have been Mr Olympia instead. what do you think?
-
Not ridiculous per se...but with the 'decision' made not allow Jay to three-peat - and while I like the direction that Dexter's win indicates - I would have given it to Heath as well. Sure Dex has paid his 'dues', but I kinda like the champ to have calves. I can deal with the 'his arms are too big' stuff.
-

yeah, thats reasonable. good post!
-

amen to that...
-

He's MR. OLYMPIA.....End of story!!! And, height is hardly an issue, as at least three other Mr. Olympia winners have been 5'7" or shorter (Columbu, Bannout, Dickerson)
known synthol abuser
for a "ripped" guy, has many smooth parts (where are his quads)
weak back (got owned by heath, cutler, freeman)
reverse taper
i think thats a good start.
But the END is that D. Jackson OWNS the Sandow, not Freeman, Heath, or Cutler (anymore).
-
for the same reason ronnie beat jay in 2001, jay should have beat dex in 2008...
