What can we say about Dennis Wolf...1) He has a fantastic, tight waist
2) Quad size equal to Branch but looks much more polished.
3) Superb conditioning. Branch only beat him by a very, VERY small margin in this department.
4) Back as good as Branch at this moment (Branch is bring up his back quickly though). Wolf does need back thickness badly. However, this is bodybuilding. The back width to waist ratio is what the sport should be looking for in the guys.
5) Arms beat Branch by a long shot.
Dennis Wolf just needs to thicken up his lower back. If he could get the level of back development of Kai Green's he would be almost unstoppable. Also, gotta bring those calves up a bit. Wolf should just remain humble, continue learning from Milos, & focus on his "weak" points. I truly hope he does not get discouraged.
Kris Gethin comments
What came as a shock ripple to most was the New York pro victory getting handed to Branch Warren. Branched looked like he had discovered plutoneum by accident he was so happy with his placement. He fell to his knees with what must have came as a suprise and shock at the same time.
Branch looked good but wasnt quite at his best which I thought he wouldve needed to take home the spoils.
Its obviously windy at the top where Dennis James got blown off his perch when he was announced as the second place finisher. He wasnt happy and he didnt hide the fact either. It didnt help that when he was about to be given his awards by MD boss Steve Blechman, he bypassed James and raised Warrens arm instead.
Decibel abuse was apparent when a of boos echoed through the tribeca auditorium when Wolf was placed in third. Many people had him battling it out for first place but today it wasnt to be.
Desmond Miller was given a rookie treat when he was put on the list of Olympia contenders later in the year. He was as big as a house and deserves his time on the biggest stage in the world.
Silvio came in fifth as expected. He was full, in shape but simply outmassed in the line up who were standing in the mass monster fetish capital - New York.
At a guess, after that was Richardson, Green, Kamali.
