I would guess it's his out of control gut. From the side he just can't suck it in any more.

but theres so many others have that problem but do well(i saw jay and phil heath at a convention 2 weeks ago and i was amazed at the size of there guts),i often wonder why some bodybuilders fall out of favour so quick,i used to like troy alves but he just kinda went off the map aswell

Dennis was the guest poser at the Emerald Cup in Seattle this year. He looked pretty round but he can't be too far out of favour if he is still doing guest posing, etc.

I always thought that Dennis looked unbeatable in gym shots. The guy had the best tank-top physique around...but when he got on stage it was just never quite the same. His last win -- Tampa Bay in 09 was at the expense of Fouad who definitely should have won the show.

cause there;s about 8 guys who are better than he is currently and yes that includes cutler and branch with their guts.
