    Johnnie Jackson is charging into the Arnold Classic 2013 with a lot to prove. Last year marked one of his best competitive years ever with a win at the FIBO Power and three second place showings at the New York Pro, Mr Europe Pro and the British Grand Prix. In this video, Branch Warren gives commentary as Jackson prefers to let his physique do the talking.

    Johnnie Jackson does some posing practice with coach Sheilahe Brown four weeks out from the Arnold Classic 2013. Last year marked one of his best competitive years ever with a win at the FIBO Power and three second place showings at the New York Pro, Mr Europe Pro and the British Grand Prix. In this video, he is dialing in a few of the mandatory poses.

    Brian Bullman previews the upcoming AC – http://www.bodybuild…d-turns-25.html

    The Arnold’s past champs are in interesting mixture of undeniable legends of the sport, and guys who burned quick and bright before fading away. Which of these types will the next champ be? Only one former champ is in the running this year, but what a champ he is! Dexter Jackson will appear for an unprecedented 13th time at the Arnold. Is this 43-year-old force of nature up to the task of dashing the hopes of 11 other hopefuls? Let’s meet the competition.

    Fouad Abiad

    In two prior outings at the Arnold, Abiad has failed to crack the top 10. However, his physique is one of the thickest and most symmetrical in the IFBB. If he nails his conditioning, he could find himself standing among the top six.

    Darrem Charles: With 10 pro victories under his belt, Charles will be one of the most successful athletes on the stage. It has been five years since his last dance in the winner’s circle, so this future bodybuilding hall of famer has to prove he’s not past his prime.

    The X-Man” is almost as much of a fixture at the Arnold as Dexter Jackson. Now 46, Freeman has proven that he can still hang with the young guns. If he nails his conditioning he could be battling for a place on the podium come the posedown. Based on the pre-contest pictures floating around Facebook, Freeman has dialed it in for this year’s Arnold. He knows this is the best chance he has ever had at winning—and exacting revenge on Jackson after losing to him at the Masters Olympia.

    2013-arnold-sports-festival-preview-the-arnold-turns-25_h.jpg

    Marcus Haley: “The Comet” has battled year in and year out, improving after every contest. Now 40, he could find himself in the mix to make the posedown if he plays his cards right.

    Dexter Jackson:

    As a three-time Arnold Classic Champion, former Mr. Olympia, and the reigning Masters Mr. Olympia, Jackson is without a doubt the man to beat. He has regained the conditioning that earned him the nickname “The Blade,” and he has been justly rewarded with his placing in his last two outings on the IFBB circuit. This year he is on a mission to tie Flex Wheeler’s record and further cement his status as one of the greatest of all time.

    2013-arnold-sports-festival-preview-the-arnold-turns-25_i.jpg

    Michael Kefalianos:

    The Greek from Australia has earned a reputation as one of the most consistent athletes in the IFBB. Kefalianos has competed in an amazing 25 pro competitions since 2009, and yet his conditioning is always second to none. He carries more mass than one could imagine would fit on such a small frame. His comparative lack of symmetry is the only thing holding him back. I don’t see him making the finals but he will definitely cause some serious problems for all onstage at his second Arnold.

    Cedric McMillan

    This will be the Army instructor’s fifth pro bodybuilding contest. He is fresh off a victory at the New York Pro. McMillan will be in the running for a top six finish, and he has the size, the symmetry, and conditioning to go all the way. He just needs to put it all together on one special day to give the likes of Jackson, Freeman, and Pakulski a run for their money.

    Ben Pakulski:He finished fourth here last year, and with the absence of last year’s top three, Pakulski has a clear shot at the title. On the other hand, he has to overcome seasoned IFBB superstars Toney Freeman and Dexter Jackson, both of whom beat him at last year’s Olympia. Depending on which version of “Pak-Man” shows up, this could be the greatest night in the young IFBB pro’s career.

    2013-arnold-sports-festival-preview-the-arnold-turns-25_f.jpg

    Ed Nunn:

    With two pro wins to his credit and a fourth-place finish at the best Masters Olympia lineup in years, Nunn will most likely duke it out with the likes of The Blade, Pak-Man, and The X Man for the coveted Arnold trophy. His combination of mile-wide shoulders and a tiny waist never fails to impress.

    Ronny Rockel:

    The Rock” has the muscular development to beat all comers, but his inconsistent conditioning has kept him out of the upper tier over the years. If Rockel comes to Columbus with everything dialed in, he has a good chance to stand in the final three.

    Fred Smalls: Smalls is making his Arnold Classic debut, after he did the same at the Olympia last year. He has some ground to make up; he placed 16th at the 2012 Olympia. If he brings his conditioning to the level that is required at top competitions like the Arnold, he’ll find himself taking

    Hidetada Yamagishi:

    The Japanese warrior has been running hot and cold for the last few years. He’ll look like a legitimate title contender at one show and settle into the back of the pack the next. Hide needs to step it up a notch if he wants to contend for a place in the posedown.

    Who Will It Be?

    The lineup is small, the competition fierce, and the title is monumental. But at the end of the day only one man can walk away with the title. The fans have their favorites and will make their voices heard come contest time. With only a few weeks remaining before the greatest sports event on the planet gets underway, the excitement is building with every day that passes.

    2013-arnold-sports-festival-preview-the-arnold-turns-25_e.jpg

    Here are my predictions for the top five:

    • Dexter Jackson
    • Toney Freeman
    • Ben Pakulski (Most Muscular Winner)
    • Cedric McMillan
    • Ed Nunn
