Your guess is as good as mine..it's the age old dilemma when judging- Who do they reward, the guy with the better genetics, shape, proportion... thats soft?
Or the guy with superior conditioning, hard, ripped, but aestetically challenged?
My personal preference is to place the guy with better symmetry and proportion higher...apparently, the jjudges went the other way with high placings for Stewart, Claude, and Stan...
