Arnold! Haney! Yates! Coleman! Dexter?????

Its amazing to me that we even have to mention the ninja turtle in the same breath as those great champions. I agree that at the last olympia that Dexter was the best of show but what does that really say?  The fact that a good bodybuilder beat mediocre to good IFBB pros doesn't lend him to be mentioned among the greats. The bloated bellies, lack of personalities, gifted placings and slew of drugs is making these big shows into freak shows and I don't mean freak in a nice way.
Well I need to quit typing before I sound too much like howie.

Silly getting bent out of shape over dexter's win considering some of the abortions who have thru politics been allowed to win it, for example yates in some shows, columbu, etc.

imo dex. is another franco colombo or chris dickerson but not the next ronnie 4 sure.. he has a gr8 body but not the type of body 2 please most of the fans.. most of the ppl prefer mr. o. to be huge.. this is why the 3 guys who won more thn 5 times wer huge..

Thats gotta be the best photo of Dex EVER! lol

Dexter's got a quality physique, clearly well beyond Yates in bad shape, the joke of Columbu being the world's best built man, etc.

The only think lacking is dominance but that's a given some years. He's got a great physique that many would find more appealing that previous winners.

he has his gr8 parts 4 sure but his calves r poor and his lats r relatively high.. high lats kill some poses..

[pumpster]

Head and shoulders above most on getbig when it comes to schmoes, this clown spends quality time on here while never working out. Has to be gay with the embarassing degree of ball-worship seen daily.

Too ticky-tacky, given that most Olympians are not flawless. His physique reeks of quality, doesn't have the horrible gh guts that many top placers have had, that is clearly a huge flaw right there. You can't use the argument that he has to be flawless when this won.

[Drama Queen]

Dexter >>>  Arnold ,Yates,Haney and Coleman

[pumpster]

Guy looks fvcking great.

[Sherief Shalaby]

Too picky, given that most Olympians are not flawless.

no one ever is flawless.. imo ronnie has more flaws thn dex. but ronnie is 4 sure a better bb coz his strong points are also much more.. ronnie has one of the best backs ever and his arms/shoulder combo are out of comparison.. on the other hand dex.'s good parts r just good parts.. nothing outstanding!!..

that is photoshopped so bad its not even funny

dexter looks great standing by himself.  the problem is how small he looks next to wolf, vic, jay etc.

   I never got this argument that so and so bodybuilder looks great standing by himself, but looks like shit when standing next to other guys. Isn't a bodybuilding contest about comparisons? That is, a bodybuilder only wins if he looks great standing next to other boybuilders.

of course dex. doesn't look bad beside the others but his body doesn't have the ability to own the competition from the first glance like lee haney or dorian (in 93 & 95)..

[Fatpanda]

outstanding  

the thing is dex does have a fantastic mr o caliber physique, jay should never have touched the sandow not dex.

the thing that everyone hates about dex is his height, if he was 5' 11" everyone would be in awe of him, instead he' called a midget  

if you take and pic of him and ronnie and enlarge dex to the same height, you'll probably be surprised at how close they are.

i don't know where this hatred comes from for dex. some clowns on here even claim heath is better   wolf is better   victor is better   cutler was better  

not a chance, if you look at their physiques and judge it on bodybuilding criteria dex wins everytime against them all.

no gut, flowing lines, symetry, conditioning, mass, proportion, he has it all. yet because he's shorter guys think he's a clown  

you are clowns   show respect to the new and rightful king  

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

It's a shame Dex is a midget.....

i agree tht dex. may b better than all the names u mentioned specially jay but not better than any of the top guys of the 90s..

i think he is better than the top guys from the 90's, including flex, levrone, ray, and nasser. The only challenger would be ronnie at his best.

now i'm talking about dex now, not 5+ years ago.

flex, yates, ray, and levrone in the early-mid 90's were outstanding, but i feel todays dex beats them.

just one white mans opinion though.

hw come my friend!!.. 4get about ray, kevin, &, the wizard of truth but hw come 2 say dex. beats flex wheeler!!..

- bth of them have shitty calves..
- flex quads, back, arms are better with their beautiful lines and shape..
- dex's shoulders may come close but i belive flex's r better and bigger..
- in addition to this dex. gas high lats while fles doesnt..

i just feel dex has more mass, and is just as conditioned if not more so.

i strongly disagree about back, dex's back blows flex's away both in width and thickness. dex's arms are bigger imo. chest is fuller and broader ( flex has narrow clavicles wich effects this).

the high lats thing - i like he look of high lats, however i don't think he has them - see below. ( dennis james and wolf do, but not dex)

legs i'm not too sure about i'd have to see pics.
