 Symettry? Aesthetics? Balance?

all trumped by muscularity. As long as you don't look Kovacs type Frankenstein burn victim, the big guy wins.

the smallest  guy

FIXED

[DeltsaForce]

Best conditioning by far. Being the best conditioned and a freak = win. Why do people even pretend it is not this way?

He win on condition alone, let alone back detail and separation.

It's not about beauty. If you want beautiful men then go hang out in bathouses or the beach. It's about the best conditioned freak. This is why the Dorian beat pretty boys and guys that looked better like the beautiful man with glasses, Flex , Flea Labrador.

You might not like it but the best conditioned freak with big legs and back wins. I amazed that people feign surprise at this.

when did i say anything about beauty?

[DeltsaForce]

calling a man short and fugly would indicate that he is not handsome enough for you. Being ugly for a bodybuilder is the norm. If you want prettyboys then go to a strip joint bro.

Not a single bodypart of Branch's is bigger than Wolf's.  Everywhere in the upper body Wolf is bigger, sometimes many, many inches bigger.  Forearms, bis, tris, delts, rear delts, chest, upper back.  Quads which are Branch's "strong point" Wolf still has some of the biggest quads in the IFBB, in any case not enough to award Branch the win based solely on calves.

[dogbowl]

This isn't a good argument in favour of branch!  As others have said, Branch's best bodypart (quads) are dwarfed by Wolfs.

I have a feeling that Wolf would have won if he had some striations in his teardrop, or a better color.

His liver is!
