Rockel is the most complete, but Branch crushes everyone on size and conditioning. JJs lower body is a disgrace to a pro stage, his pecs and traps are among the best ever. Roelly looks skinny, flat and overdieted.

It's amazing how Roelly's "awesome, best ever in the gym"-triceps are completely gone on stage and he's still destroyed by anyone in the side triceps :D

Roell`s not the best poser,but he does have some serious mass on his tris in that pic.

Just a bad angle plus shitty posing!!

Roelly seems to lose a shitload of size once on stage, have to agree with Affeman here. But fuck, Branch has really turned into an abomination of a higher level. It's just a blob of muscle, the conditioning may be there but he's got terrible separation, there's absolutely no lines remaining anywhere. Rockel has the best combo but won't win. They'll give it to Branch.

That one photo shows nothing one pose. If you look at all the photos the winner should be Rockel.

Either he doesn't want to train his legs, or he likes PLing too much...but he has the best chest and traps in the Pro ranks today.

genetics...
lot of pros in interviews talk horseshit saying things like when i became pro my delts or arms were my weakest body part .. nonsense...
his legs will never be a strong bodypart simply due to genetics

Question is.. Will Branch wear himself out and not make the necessary gains in time for the "O"...

We know Phil is taking the whole year off to strictly train for the "O"....

JJs upper body is really impressive except his gyno. But his legs are shame.
Title: Re: British Grand Prix - Final Callout
Post by: Charlys69 on March 20, 2011, 09:40:46 AM
all of the Top 3 Athletes are not perfect enough to deserve a win...

- Rockels backsides lacks to much,+ not a really good poser....so Amateur Back + good side + very good front
- J. Jackson lacks legs and calves....his chest, back, traps are top material
- lacks Balance/Ästhetics, good muscle mass, freaky legs, crazy vascularity, dense

so.....why not start placings from 2nd place.... ::)

best upperbody since coleman

serious thick muscle - high quality muscle with serious lifting foundation

i wish he had at least average quads (calfs don t matter anyway)

Post by: jude2 on March 20, 2011, 10:52:43 AM
Rockel is the best BB today at this show. He should get the win here. I hope they give it to him, since the show isn't in the US.

Title: Re: British Grand Prix - Final Callout
Post by: closeline on March 20, 2011, 11:12:58 AM
most overlook (could be top 4)

Mike KEFELIANOS

and some funny looking guys out there

btw, what has happen to branch s pecs, is this muscle?


Freeman look s going down more and more

fucking unbeliveable arms on roelly from forearms to bis and monster tris

Title: Re: British Grand Prix - Final Callout
Post by: Van_Bilderass on March 20, 2011, 11:15:33 AM
Kefalianos has a very nice look to his muscle, the skin sits nice. It's just the structure that keeps him from top spot. In some ways he's the best bb there.
Title: Re: British Grand Prix - Final Callout
Post by: Meso_z on March 20, 2011, 11:19:21 AM
Kefalianos must have the best back up there.

His arms are a weakness in the front double bicep...as well as his structure from waist up. Good legs though.

From pics, branch cant win. why? he sucks and have lost his conditioning...give the euro circus to either jj or hopefully DDR born rockel. poster boy for oral turinabol. t-bol rockel is the man. does he still pose to rammstein and only do front db and mm? that might be his downfall...

Mike's is always in top conditioning. He is only 110 kg, smaller than the others, but his conditioning is better.

But the best all of them on stage is Rony Rockel. His body shape and his conditioning is the best out there. Much more aesthetic than the ugly body of Warren.

Rockel should win!!!

Ronny did look great via the videos and pics, but unless you are there, it is hard to judge.  It will be interesting to hear PBW tomorrow, and Lee's take on why Ronny placed 4th.






Branch Warren continues the dominance two weeks after winning the Arnold Classic with an impressive win here in England over Roelly Winklaar and Johnnie Jackson. A tremendous in shape Ronny Rockel was in 4th place, although many have said that he should of placed higher.

Yeah, sure, it must be a whole different thing live. Actually, maybe the judges are not even looking at the same thing at all. For all we know, they might be watching the 120th rerun of "It's a Wonderful Life" or maybe those cameras work as funny mirrors. Or maybe it's just that IFBB judging is complete and utter BS.
