Almost perfect.

Only weak spot.

Lack of bicep peak.

Long limbs or legs particularly short torso but it could also be the photos, but great physique, if we had height to weight covenants in the open Olympia it would go along way to stopping the drug abuse and would put the sport noticeably back in the hands of those with the genetics. But we are well past the point where it should have been implemented.

He did cheat, the video was bad. Kept looking up when they told him to look down. Then tried to stand on the sides of his feet. As if that wasn’t t bad enough, they didn’t even touch the top of his head on the final measure.

No chance. Doesn’t have a marketable look whereas Bumstead has one of the best.

Incredible physique. He would get more peak if he twisted his wrists back instead of forward. He has one wrist back giving his bicep peak and the other arm he has the fist forward. That could be corrected instantly. If that's his only problem he's close to perfection.  Every Olympia winner has something we could criticize.

I think he's 5'7"  and his weight is 219lbs. Saw him being measured for height and they never had the top stick touching his head giving him another inch or two. He's going to have trouble making weight.

Standing by himself a smaller guy always looks great by himself put him next to the larger guys and he disappears

That is what they have in classic that is the entire point of the classic division

Yeah I saw that - they measured his hair! LOL

The video that RxMuscle posted of him made him look good - one comment was he was 'bottom-heavy' - don't see it myself...

That's great. Still young. Even got the calf genetics. There's just something about builds like this which makes you wonder what could have been if the judges marked down the mass era and went for the balance and flow types. This is the kind of build you dream of. Or at least, I do. Thanks for posting.

I agree 100%. At 5'8 or 5'9  and 220lbs he's the epitome of a late 80s early 90s bodybuilder. Today, if he  was an open guy, they'd say he's too small and needs about 20lbs more of stage muscle. Which is insane and unnecessary.

One million percent, Wiggs. The "sport" would be far more successful and popular today if they went in that direction. The likes of Paris, Francis Benfatto. This guy could easily stand toe to toe with the best of the 80s. Like you said regarding the weight he'd be expected to be at and for what: ruining his flow and symmetry because of that bullshit? Nah.

You Fucking Idiot - You do not have a Classic Physique - you only entered that class because
You believed it to be the easiest & only had 2 others in it.

There isn't a Physique class for a one arm, one pec, no legs, no back, Fat out of condition
Bag of shit like you.

There's zero comparison between his physique & your Train wreck.

He is Mike Mentzer and Robby Robinson size.

If bodybuilding fans supported the classic division more than the open division this would happen.
