2012 Arnold - Prejudging photos

[tbombz]

i really don't get this evan hype shit

i understand it when it comes from the palumbo, PJay braun crowd who hope to be hangers on,  i understand it when it comes from the all American white hopers-   but i dont think this guy has what it takes- not this year, not next year, etc.

He has the palumbo look, just like his best friend PJay

Who gives a fuck  if Branch is big ,dense,  lean ....etc.  he looks like absolute shit  (this time I mean it ) .
He should be out of the top 5 .

x3
his physique is shit......
simple no flow fucked up shape
missing bodyparts....

[mantronik]

I can see giving him the mm award or something

??

Branch has a wider waist than Wolf at about a foot shorter while wolfs lats are twice as wide. Branch looks horrendous all over, just thrown together. if he wins all the judges should be forced to go to specsavers for next year.

This is a tough show to call.  No one is a clear winner.  I'd go with Evan because he is balanced and conditioned.  The judges will go with Branch though, which makes this Arnold even worse than last year.  Kai should be kicking himself that he didn't compete the last 2 years, and possibly pick up two more titles.

Dex has the most pleasing physique up there.....He should be the winner. IMHO

[el numero uno]

Wtf happened to Gustavo B.?  Is he sick or something?

Easy wins for Kai, but this is his fatal flaw, he will lose out on a east check, and still play 2nd fiddle to Phil.

Thanks for the pics, Tbombs!


These guys are all too damn blocky.....they all look the same.....except for Action Jackson.

Dex should take home the hardware.....just my 2 cents.

[blackpele]

I get it why they pick Branch to win, but his body is a mess on my mind.

Bring back the '90s............

[The Ugly]

I get it why they pick Branch to win

I don't get it at all. Please explain.

people talk about wolf's legs but evan's legs look better from the front, just more fuller.  

branch looks like shit.  i can give a damn if he is using ronnie's 2003 stack.  

wolf has good lines like curry but evan is the best bber on that stage.

QFT conditioning ALONE he is blowing them ALL outta the water

Seconded braaah!

[Max B]

evans gona take it. then wolf or dex

[jude2]

Good pics. Branch packs a ton of muscle on that short stubby frame it just doesn't look right though. I can see giving him the mm award or something but he shouldn't win the contest.

1. Wolf
2. Evan
3. Branch
4. Paulski
5. Dex

These are my same picks. very good.

[Coach is Back!]

They all look like crap. Insulin does that.

[Palpatine Q]

wolf wins clearly, Evan fdb and fls are HORRID no pecs whatsoever. Ugly front relaxed. Stupid faces. 
Branch looks like shit as usual.
Wolf wins.

That's how I see it...but pro BBing judging is a fucking joke..so who knows

[Palpatine Q]

you got your glasses on old man? 

Don't need glasses to see how FUCKED Branch looks ..LOL

[CT_Muscle]

Don't need glasses to see how FUCKED Branch looks ..LOL

Nah I'm sayin my boy Evan looks awesome, I see him taking Wolf

And yes Branch should NOT be in top 5, Dex beats him 

[OptimusPrime1980]

brancj should not even be in top 3.....
look at the difference in shear mass when he stands next to wolf.... side chest , fdb.... really no contest... Wolf is a bigger and taller man.... with a far better structure.....
ok branch has conditioning.... but it's not like wolf is smooth or someting... wolf is in condition 2!
evan... also looks far better then branch....same thing... a bigger and taller bb..... with a better structure....
branch his waist looks awefull!
stubby limbs..... does not flow at all.......
todays shows are fixed man..... all about money and contracts.... politics....
i stopped caring long ago ....

it's official...
BODYBUILDING IS DEAD!

Wtf happened to Gustavo B.?  Is he sick or something?   

5 or 6 yrs ago badell was the toast of the town carrying dense ,muscle hardness all over esp,legs,arms,side leg shot was sick hams down,took too much time off to recover back to old self,,its like he went back to days before he made that jump 05 and up to the big boys territory.

[RRKore]

In most muscular Pakulski look bigger than Wolf.

Agreed.  And, Pakulski absolutely destroyed Wolf with regard to lower leg comparisons.  Wolf had to be thinking, "Scheisse! Get me away from Herr Pakulski!"
