His conditioning looks good but he looks like he's holding a layer of water...

At first when I scrolled down, I thought it was Shawn Ray! Looks great, who is this guy? More pics?

He's been competing for awhile now.  I personally like Craig, cause i feel have the same type of structure as he does.  If i work hard enough in the next 5 years i would like to get to that size if possible.

I thought he was 5'7" but I wouldn't be surprised if he was 5'6 1/2" Grin

Are you guys sure Craig isn't 5'9?  Next to Victor Martinez, he looks around the same height.  I root for the 5'9 bodybuilders.  Grin  Craig is also honest about his weight, only claiming to be 215 - at least back in 2004.  Not sure about current claims, but I was surprised that he was claiming 215 when Dexter was claiming 235 and did not look any bigger than Craig (and is shorter, if anything).

Agreed but Miller should have been behind Branch. Wolf winning, Miller being as high up as he was and beating Kai yet Kai beating Branch just shows that there are NO rules/criteria for judging these days. The judges place guys wherever the hell they please. It's stupid. Sure, Wolf should have won but that's probably not why he won. The placements show no consistency at all in criteria. The IFBB is in danger of becoming like the WWE.

How tall are you?

I heard people under 5' 9'' 1/16 were considered short.

People above that height, were considered tall... Grin

Yes! This would not be a getbig thread if someone didn't post a picture of themself when it wasn't asked for and had NOTHING to do with the thread. Go GetBig!

The placements show clearly that they are judging on what they're looking at...THAT DAY.

Different day, different lighting, different judges, different conditioning.....differe nt results.

No i wasn't saying that i campare to him now!, im just saying structure wise we have simlar builds, and if i was able to pack on a ton of muscle, i would hope that i would end up looking like that.

I'm not arguing against the diff. results from show to show, I have no problem with that. What i'm referring to is the physiques these men had that day - Miller's weaknesses, lack of symmetry, etc were worse than Branch's THAT DAY.

Very poor symmetry (biceps off, pecs off, lats off), so-so proportion and a wide waist/oblique section. Also, bad posing but that's not judged anymore. And I know it's not judged, but his gyno is bad as well.



And his abck wasn't any better than branch's, (only slightly better in terms of conditioning).


And that's not even including Craig Richardson in the discussion.
