 Well...anybody who has the Blessings and sponsorship of The Almighty SQUAD will place HIGHEST.

 Everybody knows that Freeman is 100% SQUAD APPROVED so that speaks for itself.

Your right completely different but basically the same caliber of BB.

I prefer Toney and I think he's in stlye right now, so he'll do better.

Toney if he can hold it together for his third show in as many weeks. He is more complete.

Toney places ahead of Branch, no question.

Freeman hands down.  Superior structure.  If he's peeled, top 3.

Branch got married last year and honeymooned in Australia, if I recall correctly.

He took 5th at the aussie pro after he *shoulda* won the SafFran and did great at the ASC.

Then he honeymooned, etc.  And didn't do so hot at the Olympia.

My guess is that branchy is now married and no longer willing to do what he used to do, to attain that suicidal level of conditioning that had him winning the Europa.  If so, good for him.  Priorities.

Where did all the conpiracy theorists at Getbig go?

I will say Branch will place higher then Toney.  Will he deserve it will be the question.
Branch is the new "it" guy and he will get rewarded for being so.

I think you have it twisted. Toney is definitely the new "it" guy. He's more marketable, so they'll throw it to him.

Branch tweaked his sodium at the "O" and spilled over.  Won't happen again.  He will be MASSIVE and DRY!!!  Expect superior conditioning.  He will be as dry as he was last year, or...at least, he is on pace to be.  His legs are sic, as always, his chest hangs off his body.  His back and arms are improved, and he is hellbent on making up for his Olympia placing. 
Everyone keeps talking about Vic, Dexter, and Phil (with a littel talk about toney and Gustavo)...but, they need to remember that Branch should have wone this show last year, and will be as good, if not better this year.
Toney is awesome, but that pec tear will always hold him back a little (in my book), and holding it down for three straight shows, going coast to coast, will be tough.

if they are both in great condition it will be Branch, i like Toney's physique but Branch seems to be more like what the judges look for, extreme mass, short guy.

Branch looks like he has reached his physical potential and hasn't gotten much success, I look for him to be on the decline.

I am totally on the Tony bandwagon yet. Why can't JJ win the big one?

JJ can't win because his legs are far too small for the level he's at, if you judged him by upper body alone then he'd be Mr. Olympia.

oddly enough he deadlifts a ton, I am not sure about his squat but I would expect it to be heavy also.  I can't understand his development being so lacking

but you are right, upper bodywise, he is a monster

I peronally like tony's physique better..... however I feel branch will beat him if he shows up in good condition and with a bit more back detail
