Obviously, I like the guy, but I don’t think Branch will ever look as good as he did in 04 at the SOS (above) this pic below is from SF Pro 06. At a certain point you fill out your frame and look as good (aesthetically) as you’re going to look. Beyond that, adding more muscle doesn’t necessarily make one look “better.” No one wants to see Branch become another Kovacs.
Branch is 5’6”; his frame is as filled out as it needs to be. Adding more muscle (which seems to be what he’s doing) adds to the “beast” quotient but it doesn’t “improve” his physique. Just my 2cents.
