Dexter Jackson’s left bicep seemed off on stage at the Arnold Classic Australia.
Roelly Winklaar shocked the world at the Arnold Classic Australia 2018 this weekend with a win over not only Arnold Classic champ William Bonac – but the master Dexter Jackson as well. And while Roelly was surely on point and deserves his win, there was something off about Dexter when he stepped up on stage.
It was his left bicep, which looked soft and completely undefined compared to his right. While no official statement has been made the rumor mill is already turning. Is this a torn bicep? It certainly looks like it might be – and after years of Dexter being injury free in such a high stress sport for the body… perhaps time is finally catching up with him. Check out the comparison picture below:
So what do YOU think? Is this a bicep tear? And if so – could this spell the end of Dexter’s career at such a late stage of his bodybuilding life? Let us know in the comments below! We certainly wish for the best for The Blade.
Bad shoulder injection that traveled more likely. Hoping it’s not an injury
Shoulder infection? From what? Tren sandwiches
Looks more like a slightly torn tri his tri looked smaller in last arnold week before. His arm is black and blue at elbo so I wouldn’t think shoulder infection.
Jonathan Rankin no “injection”. Can happen and cause swelling
Tears can cause swelling. Or partial bruising
Jonathan Rankin hoping that not it… at his age that would most likely be the end
Yes
Jesper Johansen godt set
Var jo det jeg sagde
Saw something wasn’t right straight away. Hope for him it’s not a bicep tear
This old fart should retire he’s time is over
That old fart has a body you will NEVER achieve.
He’s retiring pretty soon… and really? Give the guy credit for being one of the longest active competitors in bodybuilding and still placing very well against these new guys
Respect the great bodybuilder. Douchebag
He literally just won an Olympia 18 months ago in Europe.
Respect for Dexter
David I just want u to shut up . U are so annoying . Do you even lift! Clearly not !
For a bloke who has “I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees” lol 😂
David is looking for attention awww
😢
Who move this rock!! Lol
You should smell his fart maybe you will get jacked 😂😂😂
Says a gas fart guy😂😂😂😂😂
Let the gay man express his stupidity 😂😂
Remember, dexter is the ONLY man in the current heavyweight division lineup that has ever held a Mr. Olympia Sandow other than the current champ, Phil Heath.
You say politically, Mr. olympia was unfairly
retired old man
dexter won everything
Most IFBB wins and you say his time is over. Go tell Levrone but not this one
Injection Fail…clearly…
100%.
Still an incredibly gifted athlete, but it’s unfortunate that it looks like age is catching up with him
Bruising swelling. looks like he was not smiling.
Oil spill

If you know who’s dexter you know his not comfortable posing .. his always smiling so that could hurt so much.
From suspension injected injury inflammation.
The spray tan, sweating…omg he is a Champion. There is no difference from 2 weeks. Shake your heads
Tough son of a B
His waist is def thicker too
I read that he said it was a slight bicep tear
Ouch
Looks like one to me. Remember Dorian…..
No it was probably not flexed enough I don’t think with a tear he could be onstage in that great condition
Michel Trejo
SEO gone bad…
Looks more like it’s infected like the guy whose arms exploded
Yep
Its very possible
That’s no tear lol
SAD
He was not looking as healthy in Aus. compared to Ohio.
Looks torn…too bad. He’s one of the best ever!
Sidali Matsa
A champion even with bicep tear
Dexter a legend. Time to retire
Now you have to let go You start to fall away abs no body
Vinicius Boeira Alves
Great Career.He’s done. Legs are down past two years and his left arm has looked damaged for past year, now just this show. this sport has a hard time telling the truth about anything, especially when a drugged out body has slipped. Once again hes been awesome, maybe the best ever in terms of consistency and wins.
Ormai è arrivato il Tempo che si ritiri purtroppo..il suo fisico sta’ cedendo!!!!
Still placing well in most shows I think he won’t be retiring anytime soon but I’m sure you are all just itching to jump up and take his place right away. ,,, hell NO!!! Lol my sides,, jealous twats!!!
Tanning spray too thick in that area and mixed with sweat and it causes uneven discoloring or blotchy look.
Looks like
Bad luck
Time to retire
This is to remind these guys that your body has limits so you can’t go BEYOND. We are humans NOT machines… you can keep working out after 40 BUT not without RISKS…
I am pointing at an injury in the nerve supply to the biceps. I sincerely do not hope that this will be a career ending injury..like lats and triceps injury Ronnie Coleman suffered from back in 2004 Mr. Olympia contest!
