he might be holding just a tad bit of water today, but besides that he doesn't look much different at all.. you have to keep in mind, the lighting is not even comparable to the IronMan.

Damn those two are evenly matched.

To be honest I think it should be Dex's but with the momentum of the Ironman behind him I can see Phil taking it.

Awesome comparison. This is good bodybuilding right here brothers! My vote is for Dex. I dont think Phil looks quite as sharp as he did at the IM but then again it could be the lighting.

Dex is drier and in great shape but Phil has better calves, hamstrings, back, arm seperation (inside), width, shoulders, and lower lat insertion.

Being in better condition should count, but not compared to someone in almost as good condition but with better size and a more complete physique.
That is just my two cents.

My thoughts exactly:xyxthumbs:Just have to see what judges want.Dexter does look good.

After looking over all the pics on bb.com I really dont see how Dex could loose this. Braaq made some good points but I still have to say that DJ has a more pleasing physique. Just my two cents.

I voted Dex, he has the perfect body symmetry. Everything flows, that`s why maybe he doesn`t look as impressive standing alone, since there is no "WOW" part, because the entire package is WOW !
