Dexter Jackson







Dexter "The Blade" Jackson (born November 26, 1969) is an IFBB professional bodybuilder.
Dexter's first NPC (National Physique Committee) competition was the NPC Southern States Championship of 1992, where he took 3rd. His first Arnold Classic, Night of Champions, and Mr. Olympia were all in 1999. He placed 7th, 3rd, and 9th respectively. He most recently competed at the 2007 Mr.Olympia placing 3rd ahead of Ronnie Coleman, though many critics say he won't place any higher. However, he has a strong following and many consider him pound for pound the best for mass, cuts, and definition for his height. Dexter has been featured in many fitness and bodybuilding articles, including being pictured on the cover of Muscular Development magazine. He currently lives in Jacksonville, Florida
