Title: 2019 Olympia - Dexter Jackson vs. Brandon Curry - can Dexter win?
Post by: Ron on August 04, 2019, 09:27:47 PM


Some people are saying that Dexter cannot beat Brandon Curry, but you never know.

Then others are saying this is Curry's year to win in all...

If Dexter can tighten up his lower abs a little bit, he can beat Curry. But it's Curry's show to lose.

Dex has been places Curry will never be physique-wise...balance and conditioning and consistency. Old guy knows all the tricks and could pull it off.

Yes, Dexter can win.  I'm not sure he will, but I think he's a lock for top 4 unless he hits a major snag on the way to the O. 

In no particular order, here is my top 10.
The top 4 are probably locks for the top 4 spots.  5-10 could be really interesting.  Ian Valliere
could be the real sleeper.  He seems to have the total package of size, shape and density. 
If he can figure out how to dial it in for the big day, he can crack the top 5.

That looks more like a line up for the old NY Pro than it does for the Mr. O.

Dex was dialed in for Tampa. If he comes in with same conditioning or a little sharper he’ll walk away with it against anyone

Cedric is a dark horse guy with the frame and structure to beat everyone on stage if he can get extra crispy.

Nope, I also think with this win Dexter turned what might have been a boring Olympia (if Shawn can’t compete) into a very competitive field

Dex, Bonac, Roelly and Curry is a very, very good top 4.  Too bad Hadi can't compete and this would have been a good Olympia debut for Flex Lewis.

Picking Curry. He is looking better in every show. Coming off an Arnold win, he should definitely be the favorite. Dex looked great in Tampa but will have to better to beat Curry, Bonac and Roelly assuming they come in on point.

You’re likely Right.
As a long Shot I’d like to See Cedric Dry / Ripped & Full
He’d make for a Great Mr O Winner physique wise.
Unlikely it will Happen.

Cedric looks like Mr. O there.

Curry has made improvements but that might throw his timing off for the show. Looks really lean in latest pic.

It’s a pretty horrible lineup, minus 2-3 people.

I think it will come down to Dexter vs. Curry with Bonac thrown in there.

Wish Flex Lewis and Hadi Choopan would have competed in the Open class.
