i think the problem with dexter is this, he has a great physique and has peaked his potential. but in this day and age people like ronnie and jay will beat him on size.

i mean i dont see what else dexter can do with his physique it is technically perfect.

Like somebody said - hes never gonna win the olympia whilst they reward size above anything else - but whats wrong with training for 6 months of the year and pickin up your 3rd/4th place cheaque (whats that about £50k), plus all your sponsorship deals (probabaly another 50k). Doesnt sound such a bad deal.

dex has stayed the same i agree, but.....

jay hasn't changed either in a good way. hes getting worse every year and is holding more water every year, but thats not stopped him getting the o.

dex has nothing else except bbing, what would he do??? he has no other income.

he'll keep picking up his checks.

never really liked dex all that much.

he's conditioning is great, but other than that, doesnt do anything for me.

donrhummy · « **Reply #13 on:** June 12, 2007, 09:46:47 AM »

The problem for Dexter is that he hasn't fixed his weakpoints AND he now has a gut. So he's smaller than Ronnie/Jay yet has a gut.

"Washed up" apparently = "not at lifetime best".

Dex came second at the Arnold so he's doing pretty well. He needs to start being smarter with his money though. In MD he said he was broke and waiting to get paid at the Arnold. $:-\$

Yes i think cormier shold hang it up. I cant see him ever getting back to his best of late 90's/early 2000's. With Dex, he is still the same, and placing pretty high. I think cormier will struggle to make top 10 olympia again coz he wont be able to get into the shape he used to. I still think a cormier at his best would finish top 4 at olympia, but it aint gonna happen again. Too much partying and recreational drugs over the yrs
