despite one is pre contest and other a show photo, I think Turk can handle his own against Israel.

It would be a close call, but Turk takes it.

Israel looks a bit shallow from the side.

Looks like Turk takes it

I'd like to see show pics vs show pics (Flex, after the Ohio?).

But Dave has better chest and arms.

Similar quads, abs and calves.

Israel has better hammys and delts. Actually upon second look Dave has better delts, just the difference between show and precontest definition.

I'm undecided on the back shots. I think Dave has him there.

Overall Turk wins as he has a good balance of physique and is in great shape. He is also probably a few pounds heavier (from the look of those pics).

Turks upperbody seems to look better with these pics. Strong shoulders and big arms. Israels legs are a bit bigger but it would be a close call imo.

If Dave comes in close to the way he looked at the Slippery Rock show, he's got it.

I disagree with anyone that think Israel has better quads, Dave's are far more conditioned right now.

Well, it's pre VS show, but let's try this:

Side chest: this goes for turk, he's much fuller.
Side tri: Israel isn't hitting his pose...
abs: tie. With that lighting and angle Israel have this one IMO.
BDB: turk, no doubt
MM: turk's pose is better performed and except for traps he has a more muscular look, including legs.

Turk wins.

who is israel

Read post 12.

These pics are terrible to judge. Turks is posing in bad lighting and Israel has stage lighting. Distance from the camera also plays a huge part.
