Samson Dauda\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nHe added that some contenders from last year\u2019s second callout could break into title contention depending on their peaks:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThere could maybe be one or two guys from that second callout jump up and challenge some of the guys I\u2019m about to mention right now. But I think the general consensus that everybody thinks, would see Nick Walker, Andrew Jacked, Samson Dauda, those three guys, I would say Hadi.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen, you have maybe like a Martin or a Tonio or a Krizo; there are a few other guys like Brandon Curry<\/a>, a few other guys that can come in there and change those placings up. Nobody is safe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nLunsford explained that taking a break has helped him bring a denser, fuller, more mature look to the stage this season:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf I could give myself a break from the competitive stage for a few months, I know what I can bring to this year\u2019s Olympia. I can bring a denser, fuller, more seasoned and mature look, a more balanced physique to this year\u2019s Olympia. Like I said, maybe I wasn\u2019t competing onstage, but I was every day getting after it in the gym,\u201d said<\/a> Derek Lunsford.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nDespite the pressure, he doesn\u2019t believe his physique will be beaten in Vegas.\u00a0<\/p>\n
