Nick Walker makes history 3x NY Pro winner

[Yousef12O2]

Beating Shawn Ray and Chris Cormier and Paul Dillet sure.

Dorian, Nasser, Lee Priest, Flex, Levrone... Ronnie, Jay. Those dudes would be crazy in any generation. Can you imagine Lee Priest in the 212s?! He'd win til he got tired of it. Yeah Samson, Hadi, Derek, Nick, Andrew... I could see those dudes also being top tier in any generation. Guys seem more full now and more grainy then. Would've been a great posedown

Keone beats Lee Priest pretty easily. Nasser was never conditioned enough from the back. Dorian didn't have good glutes and hams. Ronnie and Jay would wipe the floor with anybody in any generation tho (except for Phil Heath where it would be close)

I remember a lot of people writing Nick off after he dropped out last year. I give him props dropping a lot of size to taper down.
Takes a hit to the ego and he's still a monster but not mutating into ever increasing size that blows the waistline out. Impressive.

The crazy thing is he got up to 300-305 pounds earlier this year and still managed to improve his waist. Still needs improvement in my opinion but he did a great job.

It was also bizarre how when pulled chocks on last year O, Matt was all like "his body is not responding, and falling apart" and then a few weeks later he was 300lbs and looking massive in full off season mode.

The vague video Nick posted made me think either anxiety or not in good shape

The video he later posted doing leg presses where it looked like a beach ball was under his shirt made me think the latter

Probably a little of both

But he f-ing brought it to NY

Yates had terrific hamstrings

Jay is bigger than Yates, thats about it. Yates would have a great chance of beating him. Hes beating jay in the side triceps, both back poses, front latspread and possibly the ab and thigh.

Few get this grainy hardness.

Just my opinion. But yes I forgot Phil Heath. He would dominate any era.

I’d say damn near every modern top Classic competitor is grainier, and most open…

It was just lack of attention from Jansen. Nothing special imo.

This guy is such a heel. Bodybuilding is hard. Why is he out here shitting on Nick, and he has disparaged other athletes in the past?

Who cares tbh

It is a bad look for the sport to have a person employed by the federation actively disparaging it's own athletes, and taking digs at them. Negativity in general does not help anyone. Either shut the fuck up, or get out of the business.

Bob wasn't technically wrong ("Nick at his best didn't beat Derek at his worst") (well the best/worst part is subjective) but he never would've said it if he didn't have a personal beef with Nick.

Agree not a good look for the sport.

Agreed, but we just need to stop giving these stupid silly petty comments attention. That’s the only reason he’s saying anything.
