Dexter "the Blade" Jackson

[swb1126]

Just a comment since lately on here everyone wants to talk about the pros. Looking through pics of the 2003 Mr. Olympia, it seemed to me that Dexter Jackson should've been the winner. He looked much more vascular, and had a better v-taper than Ronnie or Jay. He didn't possess those nasty distended abs either.

If you look at the back poses of the top three, Dexter blows them away. Don't get me wrong, Ronnie and Jay were two big huge freaks and had more muscle than anyone ever has in the sport, but that's not what it's all about. Dexter's shots reminded me of one of the best bodybuilders who never won the big show because of size; Flex Wheeler. Hopefully Dexter doesn't get screwed for years the way he did.

dexter doesnt look freaky enough, but i dont like freaky, and would have liked to see him at least 2nd

Agreed

Jay needs to try and trim down his waist, but in all reality he is already in. He has achieved the status he needs and whether he never comes in great shape again, he will probably always get a top 5 placing, meaning he will always make the money. I like Jay too though.

Bigger is better

The sad reality is bigger is better. It's the freak show that sells the sport in the long run and makes people say "Wow". I'm not a Ronnie fan at all. I do like Jay Cutler. Many bros will be gung ho in favor of one of them. But if they got to choose the body they could live in, you gotta wonder how many would pick the likes of Jackson, Levrone, Wheeler (hate him) or Ray, just to name a few.
