Give me your honest opinions. As those who know me know, I'm open to all opinions and thoughts, but I've still yet to find a major flaw on him.

If there was one problem he has it's consistency. Sometimes he seems to be holding that film of water and it blurs out his amazing grainy muscle quality. Otherwise.. critique away. Tell me where you see problems, please.

Not with that stomach. He will never see a title, no way no how

bigmc · « **Reply #4 on:** July 28, 2006, 09:10:22 AM »

He always looks unbeatable running up to a show, just never seems to nail it, his stomach aint any worse than Ronnies

WOW! That's an incredibly detailed post filled with pictures and reasons that I just can't deny!

Thanks for taking time out of your JAM PACKED schedule for listing a couple solid reasons why you don't feel The Menace will ever do well at a major competition.

Thanks Again!

Also a solid point, considering the fact that the top 2 professionals in the WORLD can do full vaccuum poses for hours on end...

...or were you being serious?

Things are possible

I remember when MuscleMag International did a commentary and listed a group of bodybuilder had potential to be Mr Olympia and those that didnt have any potential of ever becoming Mr Olympia.

Shawn Ray, Cutler, Coleman, Nasser, etc....

The writer of the Article said that Coleman doesnt have the genetics to ever be Mr. Olympia but had great work ethics, being a professional bodybuilder and full time cop...the writer said Ronnie would never be Mr. Olympia...

We know Ronnie won Mr Olympia and the rest is history....never boaught MuscleMag International after that. Credibility was ruined..I wish I remembered who that writer was...

Do any of remember this?

I just have a feeling someone bigger and better will emerge that we havent heard of yet will become Mr. Olympia...that is after Ronnie retires or will ever retire...

In terms of potential, i feel martinez is up there as the best.

However, for bodybuilding, i believe it would be in the best interest for the sport if gunter was promoted to the top position of the sport and not jay.

His lats are too high.....

all Mr. O's have had a back (except zane) ...Dennis' weakest part is his lats

alexxx · « **Reply #9 on:** July 28, 2006, 09:17:10 AM »

Dennis James just has too many weaknessess.. starting with his crappy proportions to his condidtioning to his weak mind. Don't get me wrong he is a monster and looks pretty crazy but all he has for showparts are shoulders and arms. His lats are too high, backdouble bicep reminiscent of gary strydom, quads are shit probably because of his shitty form and even Johnnie Jackson dwarfs him on quads. Chest looks really awkward. Ass to big. Waist of an alien. Gym prowess in on the freacking machines lol! Should I go on for you?

phyxsius · « **Reply #10 on:** July 28, 2006, 09:17:20 AM »

Dennis is a very very good bodybuilder but I don't think he is up to the top to win any shows

Ho he wont be Mr. O; he already is Mr. O !!!!!!!!!!!! in your dreams.

These pics are 1 day out of the New York. As he said in PBW he didn’t want to carb load (which would have been a very good idea) but just before the show he did and I think that screwed him up.

Everyone always says Dennis looks awesome 2 weeks out but at the night of the show; he just looses it. it is cause insulin manipulation. What I see is he carb loads with insulin and just sacrifices the condition. Same what happened to Gustavo in last years ASC. I think Milos’ boys always loose condition because of that.

With the legal issues he had he will never be Mr. O. I think he is lucky that they allow him to compete the IFBB. And the distinct midsection will always hold him back.

Honestly one of the best posts I've EVER read on these boards. Great pictures and solid test bro.

I REALLY didn't know he had problems carbing up, and now that you mention it, I remember hearing about his gear-related indictment in Thailand involving the United States DEA.

Very, VERY good points man. But let me ask you this: Since they've allowed other pro's that have had drug issues (some even DURING the contest. eg- Paul Dillets cramps and insulin ON STAGE problems & Jay Cutler's failed diuretics test come to mind right off the bat) why would there be any problems with allowing James to win? Sure he got in drug trouble, but here's a list of pretty successful BB'ers that have/still having successful careers:
Cutler
Dillet
St. Cloud
Martinez

...and I'm sure there are more.

Keep the solid posts coming though!

the menace lacks too many things.......he couldnt possibly be mr O

next question....

shootfighter1 · « **Reply #13 on:** July 28, 2006, 09:27:36 AM »

I don't believe so (winning the O). He is one of the greats but his midsection has been an issue as he has gained more mass which throws off his shape and taper.

Good post above, lots of guys can get into trouble with the carb up methods.

little stomach distension that's about it............

natural al · « **Reply #16 on:** July 28, 2006, 09:45:42 AM »

a little off topic but he has one of the funniest training vids I've ever seen. The one with the old dude scraming at him the whole time...not yelling mind you, screaming like a mainiac, funny as hell. Back to Basics is the name, I think.

And a consistent problem when it comes to nailing the conditioning. His 2 weeks out pics are you usually mind boggling...

If he could manage somehow to bring that on stage I think he'll be top 3 anyday.

Ex Coelis · « **Reply #18 on:** July 28, 2006, 10:08:39 AM »

his quads lack separation, his lats aren't getting any lower, his mid-section is distended, and he peaks too early

the major problem he seems to have is with his quads. they're big and all but lack the deep separation they need to win the title

great physique and always a joy to listen to - never boring

Well, there are at least a few folks in Hell that truly believe any minute now, the A/C is gonna flip on and ice water will be served to everyone.

Doesn't make it so.

Dennis James will NEVER be Mr.O.

Period.

Are you kidding? He'll never even win the Arnold in this lifetime. When youve been in the game as long as he has and guys like Darrem Charles and rookie Phil Heath beat you, you wont be holding a Sandow anytime soon

Ex Coelis · « **Reply #24 on:** July 28, 2006, 10:28:58 AM »

I've heard good things about this guy. I'm sure he'll become Mr. Olympia as long as he doesn't make any stupid decisions for some quick money. Yep - bright days ahead . . .
