I think noone ever competed on top level longer than him. His first Olympia was in 1999, and 2015 his still placing in the finals at the Olympia and Arnolds.

Proof that training (and juicing) smart trumps training (and juicing) hard.

Don't think so. There are very few guys in Pro BB who are good businessmen as well like Jay, Phil or Branch.

Even multiple Mr Olympias like Ronnie or Dorian live on the breadline these days.

I assumed Ronnie was pretty much set. Dude has to have a few million in the bank.

African Americans are far more likely to have bad credit records than whites, even when blacks and whites with similar incomes are compared.

A recent $1.3 million dollar study undertaken by Freddie Mac has revealed some surprising differences in credit scores between African-Americans and Caucasians.

The study compared the credit scores of members of each ethnic group, leading to data that shows Caucasians earning less than $25,000 per year were likely to have better credit scores than African-Americans earning between $65,000 and $75,000 per year.

Dexter is one of the laziest MoFos in Pro BB, trains like a granny, does no cardio, and dieting for a show for him means to order his hamburgers without cheese (according to Markus Ruhl). Dude is a genetic freak with an exceptional response and tolerance to longterm drug abuse.

Lazy? You don't go from being a bantamweight to MR. OLYMPIA, by being lazy. I don't care how much of a "genetic freak" you are or how much "drug abuse" you claim.

And you certainly don't stay among the best in the world for as long as he has by being "lazy", either.

As for Markus Ruhl's comments, as Ruhl has all but disappeared from bodybuilding, those comments are probably old. The Dexter Jackson of yesteryear got ripped without cardio. Dex and his trainer have clearly stated that the 40+ version of the 2008 Mr. Olympia has to do cardio to get himself in shape.

BTW, Ruhl would also be a "genetic freak" with "exceptional response to long term drug abuse". Yet, he never won the Mr. O. In fact, he consistently lost to much smaller bodybuilders, such as Jackson and Darrem Charles.

There's this unwritten rule now that, if you win the O, you have to do it multiple times to be considered elite. Or, you have to placed 2nd multiple times.

But, if you win the Olympia just once, you don't quite get the respect that the others do.

That's why Jackson, Bannout, and Dickerson don't get the same props as Ray, Labrada, Wheeler, Gaspari, and Levrone.

all true
elite genetic responder to steroids
off season , eats junk food, chinese food ALL the time

but father time is catching up with him
last 2 years, he's lost a certain thickness- you can see now his training is all light light light and machines,
back 10- 6 years ago he was still lfiting pretty heavy with free weights

How would you know? You guys believe every pro does 10 grams a week every week forever. Just because Levrone or JP Fux come off and stop training and eating and shrink up doesn't mean others don't come off and keep training and eating and hold size. Dexter looks much bigger in contest stage than offseason pretty obvious why although not on here where people see Evan C in a shirt 3 weeks out and say he's lost all size  :o ::)

Because BBing is all he does and he can't afford to take a break.  Others are correct, he hasn't been off for 20 years.  

It's nice that you stick up for your BBing hero.

no doubt Dex is one of the great BB's and has a superior genetic response to steroids but to think he's ever on less than 1-2 grams testo./week cruising is just ignorant and naïve.
the minimum average dose pro's are taking off season or pre contest is 3-4 grams testo/week not including anything else so 1-2 grams/week testo for maintenance is believable and accurate

As I said earlier, he gets fewer props for winning it just once than the multiple-time runners-up who never got the title.

It's weird. You either have to win it multiple times or almost win it multiple times to get your due. Win it just once.....ho hum (relative speaking).

How often do you hear Bannout or Dickerson hailed at all-time greats?
