4TH DENNIS WOLF The die hard Dennis Wolf fans could be found all over social media claiming daylight robbery as Wolf stepped off stage having to settle for 4th place. It’s not surprising to find that most of those doing the screaming and shouting reside in Germany – Wolf's place of birth. We all have our favourites and we all want our favourites to win, but when you extract the basic elements of bodybuilding into their absolute intricacies of balance, size, proportion, symmetry and condition, there is just no way that Dennis could have placed higher than 4th. Wolf has managed to really dial his condition in over the past few years, even claiming him the 2014 Arnold Classic trophy! That said, he is beaten in symmetry by the top three and as impressive as he is, his physique doesn't flow structurally like that of the top three above him. 5TH DEXTER JACKSON It never ceases to amaze anyone that The Blade is always up there in the top ranks still battling it out after 15 appearances in this competition. Dex hasn't been out of the top 6 since 2001 and he also won the entire contest in 2008! He has cemented his position as one of the all-time greats in this sport and this show was no different. Cut like a blade and shredded to pieces, Dexter Jackson slides nicely into fifth with arguably some of the greatest symmetrical and proportioned traits in the business.
