Victor Martinez vs Branch Warren???

[xylitol999]

Who do you think will place higher this year? (Victor lost to Warren last year.)

[ViewCart]

If Branch places higher then victor this is a scandal.

[JanesLastResort]

I wont be surprised either way.

[transformerchad]

Victor 8-10
Branch 10 -12

Imo

[nonamewut]

victor gotta place higher than branch

[TheSecondName]

Branch not even top 10 IMO.

[SSJ3FinalFlash1]

I don't even know how Branch places Top 10 at the Olympia

Victor

[wala]

Victor back in top 6 possibly if conditioned
Branch hopefully out of top 10!

[SCG]

Really want to see victor do well just not sure if he can place higher then branch, really hope so never been a branch fan.

[SWThomas]

I would like the 4 people who voted for Branch to please justify their choice.

[ZM92]

there are no words to explain if Branch is going to be above Victor

Grainy slabs of grainy dry hard thick muscles just hanging off his bones.

He's got God on his side! Lightweight mot*******er!!

I can't stand Branch but I do think that if it's just about body TODAY and has nothing to do with who they are ... then Branch would likely win. I think they are both past their respective peaks but Branch hasn't had to rebuild as much as Victor has.

couldn't disagree more. victor is better than branch now.

[compan]

It would be an absolute shame if Branch placed above Vic

I never understood the blind Branch hate. I am not a fan of his physique as it has turned over the years but I definitely appreciate that he is one of the most consistent bodybuilders, he comes every time shredded and big.

His lowerbody is actually really really good, the problem is his upperbody. Sure, his physique may not be "aesthetically pleasing" but if we want bodybuilding judging criteria to remain somewhat consistent and fair, as roro said "Grainy slabs of grainy dry hard thick muscles just hanging off his bones" should count for something.

I think Roro was being ironic. Other than that, Branch has a melting back and chest, and uunbalanced legs. The last guest posing he did he looked more balanced, so well see. I think Victor post jail looks like ****. Gut, huge waist, very small legs and calves, oiled arms. Dont see why Vic is better than branch atm

[TropicalSunset]

Victor should place higher, but Branch does look like he is coming in shredded. We will see. In terms of physique, it is a no brainer that Victor is a better bodybuilder.

[DanParryFitness]

Martinez all the way

Whhhatt? no way man. Phil,Kai and Wolf. 3 right there. No way victor is beating Dexter or rhoden. And I'm doubting victor is ganna beat ramy. Sorry brother.

[Deano87]

If Branch deserves to place higher, then I would like to see him place higher.
But I hope Vic brings a good package.

[ToniRadanov]

I'm not a Branch fan but I actually voted Branch because he's simply more consistent with conditioning and seems slightly "improved" so far this year to the lumpyness of last year.

I can't bare it: Victor has the worst legs alongside JoJ on the O stage which is a disgrace and will always ruin it for me. He's always been top heavy however you want to look at it but it's too much now after his recent "comeback" from jail. Bleegh.

[SmarterChild]

Branch keeps getting worse and worse

Looks like an action figure melted in the microwave

Dude has destroyed his body

[Nep2une]

This thread offends me ! Victor would have to be very off to place lower than branch in a contest not judged by Stevie Wonder. " I can see cleeeeaaaaarly now the grain is gone !"

[SPARTANUP]

Branch rounds out top 10 with Dex and Victor crammed on either side 9/Branch /11. I think Victor can gain mass and fullness quickly as we saw from the NYpro to the next contest, but I don't think it will be "all there" for him, beefy bodybuilder but wont bring the complete package to be in the mix.

Branch beats Victor by one placing.

I'd be very surprised if Dex dropped that low.
