Larry Pepe: "Eduardo might have made a run at the Overall!"

Larry Pep on PBW says it was possible Correa could have won the open class if he would have entered it instead of the 202.

Correa has the perfect physique

I would have had him winning even though Hide was bigger.  Bigger aint better.

Hide's delts looks a lot bigger in the last shot.  Don't see any other obvious advantages though.

Hide's back and arms suck ass compared to Eduardo. In the back pose you can see the lack of lower back and the lack of development in his triceps...Hide vasically won on technicality---the better man didn't enter the overall.

Didn't Hide used to have huge Synthol-suspiscious triceps?  Maybe I am thinking of Chris Dim.

I've trained next to Hide many times and I've noticed no obvious signs of sythnol use.  That said, his arms are definitely a weak point.  Also, he should have been marked down considerably for entering the show with that hernia.  Of course, we all know how concerned the judges are with aesthetic physiques.   

[Aaron Singerman]

I was there and in the very front... Eduardo would have won the Open if he did it. Hands down.

[BIG DUB]

Better quads on Hide.

[wes]

He`s blowing Hide out of the water in these comparisons IMO.

[JasonH]

I think Hide is still better - Correa is possibly drier but that's not the only factor required to win a bodybuilding contest. Hide still takes it on size, shape, fullness and overall conditioning.

[alnassak]

Correa has a smaller, prettier and dryer physique.

Hide has a bigger and good conditioned physique.

Isn’t bodybuilding all about MASS and good enough condition..?

I know it is suck, but this is how our sport is judged.

correa was like 202 and hide 220?

correa at hides weight completely owns him.
