Needs a ear reduction.

Branch now looks like a ninja turtle like dexter.  They both must have gotten a strong batch of turtle hgh.  That midget should have never been within a thousand yards of the top ten.  He should have seen it from the parking lot while he was parking the cars of the real bodybuilders.

Notice how they placed Pak right out of the top 10, so he wouldn't even be seen at the night show.

Maybe I missed something but the only body part of branches that is better is his back. Pac beat him in everything else  :-\

Agreed, I think if Pac can bring his back up, he should place a lot better, his arms are a little small for a pro as well (not that I wouldn't mind my arms being that small - lol)

Back?? Maybe I need glasses but it seems like Branch doesn't have a back. His rear lat is easily the shittiest

I believe Branch Warren is the most overhyped BB of the last 20 years.

Roelly is up there as well as Wolf. 

Thoughts?
^^
Not only is Branch the most overhyped, his body is just a collection of parts- no symmetry or pleasing shape at all...

I think there is a difference between being 'overrated' and simply 'winning because everyone else better either retired or got old'

Dex I don't think was overrated his physique was quite good when he was 'on'

but he won the Mr. O because Ronnie was too old, kevin shawn flex etc were retired etc.

like Franco in 81. won because Arnold wasn't around anymore.

I can appreciate the size thing but geez, it's not as if Dexter is small. The guy is Mr Olympia. He is obviously big enough. I think that if a guy 'disappears' in a lineup, then the judges are being wowed by size too much.

Bertil Fox was much bigger than Samir in 83, but Samir had the 'quality'.
Mentzer was bigger than Zane in 79, but Zane had the 'quality'.
etc etc

Clearly he is 'underrated' if the judges could have placed Branch Warren over Dexter in the Olympia.

I'm with you here dexter is always in shape and seeing his arms in person is truly inspiring. They are like huge slaps of perfect beef slapped on a tight mid section

Dex had a Great Physique and won more or less simply because Jay screwed up his Conditioning that year as he did as well in 07 real lucky to get the nod over Victor, Big Ron and the others where Long gone, Franco won the 1981 Show with a World class Upper-half and Pub-par legs having Your Best Friend as the actual Promoter that year in 1981 Helped alot too ;D ;D ;D

Couldn't agree more.  Thought his wins in 06, 07 and 10 were bullshit.
