He just looks way better. Shoulders to waist taper, with great sweeping quads. The other guys look short and wide waisted compared to him. Just my opinion.
Not necessarily onstage...but in person I agree. Anyone who's been at a few expos and met Dexter, Branch, etc. and then met Cedric can attest to how much more impressive a lot of muscle on a tall frame looks in person. At least that's they way I felt when I met them.NO offense to the shorter guys here, but I always felt that taller guys who are proportionally filled out like Tony will always look better than a shorter guy.....basically because of how much more real estate a taller guy has.
I worked out at a gym in the North Atlanta area where he trained every so often. He was a pleasant guy. Not overly talkative, but would talk to you. And l remember him training with high rep, high volume a lot.He still trains hard core to this day in the ATL area.
1000 rep bicep workout type stuff.
He looks amazing, that does not change how he compares in a line up of top tier bodybuilders.

See, this is that BIG BIG BIG mindset. If you're impressed by BIG ASS MASS, I get it, but as far as proportion/symmetry/etc, I think he's got the total package.
Cedric's upper body doesn't compare to Tony's from a shape perspective.
