Dexter Jackson, Busta Rhymes and Mr Glass. Golds Venice- Badass Training Session

[Fortress]

A greasy rap retard, a washed-up pro and a con man.

Terrific.

All training in a left leaning, socialist, riddled with homeless bums, Venice, CA

A former Mr. Olympia, who still places top 10 at the O when he’s almost 50, is washed up?

Dexter is used to winning though, he stated himself he hasn’t won any shows since 2016. No doubt unbelievable run that won’t be duplicated, possibly ever,  at 50 years old there’s nothing else to prove, I think it’s time to retire, or do small shows and try to win all of them and go out on top

Has Dexters nose grown in the past ten years ?   

He looks like a monster ( face  like he's wearing a mask ).

Tampa Pro is his show to lose, in August.

You should have trained dexter, would have been better than glass

Whaaaaat? Are you serious? Glass travels all around the World to seminars and Expos.
Coach pretty much travel as well, but only from Hun Beach to Golds Venice..

Going out on top is a bit impossible unless he wins the Olympia again. But, it’s not as if he’s placing “16th” like Samir Bannout, back in the day, only qualifying because he’s a former Mr. O.

Reminder: Dexter is 50.

My friends said that at the 2006 Arnold seminar, Dexter said his doctor said that based on his bloodwork at the time, his doctor said he would live to 💯.

How much intensity do you expect from a 50-year-old?

50 Cent was in one of Dexter's videos too. That's pretty cool he has met some of the Hollywood elite who train at Gold's.

50 Cent said that he was shooting a show that was just bought by A&E for a season. I think.

This was in 2016.

Dex is 50 and using the same drugs that hes been on since he was 37.

He may already be 100.

Stan Efferding is 50 ish too isn't he?? Still trains with 100X more intensity than Dexter ever did!!!

Yet, Dex is Mr. Olympia. You don’t get brownie points for training with intensity.

[The Scott]

Like all of us, he will die.  Only he thinks he's going to look better doing it.  Not with THAT nose he ain't.  He's a much better Mr. O than Phildo has ever been.

He can try to win the Arnold classic again

[MCWAY]

He can try to win the Arnold classic again

That’s not out of the question. But, if he nails his condition again, he’s right back in the Olympia conversation.

[Matt]

Interesting thread. I read all of it.

I do think Dexter winning smaller shows would still be going out on top.

I honestly think Ronnie should have gotten into condition for 1-3 smaller shows in 2008, then retired. Even doing both the Aussie and New Zealand Pro that year [I think they had NZ], and then retiring would have been a good call. Tell Tony to tell thee judges down under that he's retiring after the two contests, come in in the best condition possible, and retire on two W's.

It would have made all his comeback talk more plausible, and still be a way to sort of retire on top.

[Matt]

Scratch the down under contests.

But Ronnie could have won the Europa or Tampa shows [won by Toney Freeman] in 2008, or the Atlantic City Pro [won by Melvin Anthony], or all three - then retired.

No disrespect to Toney Freeman or Melvin Anthony. But Ronnie did outrank both of them in the IFBB rankings at the time. So realistically, Ronnie could have won those shows.

Is Dexter's physique finally going downhill? Took a while.

And yes, Stan Exceeding is the same age. He is either born in 1968 or 1969. Oh wait...Dexter is born November of 1969, right?

So he will be 50 this year. I thought he just turned 50 this past November. My bad.

Dexter hasn’t looked as good (for his standards anyways) in his last few shows and his last O, he has that tired look setting in, and legs are regressing

His physique is phenomenal still but I just don’t see him beating the guys that are now placing ahead of him like boner, Curry, Roelly, etc

Anything can happen but being 50, he’s already accomplished it all
