The Infamous Nigerian Championships Where Vic Richards " earned " his Pro Card

[Simple Simon]

He's mellowed some, but you would still know it's him if you were talking to him. You can view his thought on all types of things, especially race, here -

A real good article on Vic Richards and why he didn't compete

Yup. Fear of losing kept Victor away from competing.


" WHY VICTOR NEVER COMPETED

 My own thought is that as big as he was Victor would have to diet and get cut up to do well in pro contests. And he just didn’t want to lose his mythical size or face the prospect of losing. I personally think dieted down his trouble spot would be his back, where his high lat insertions would have torpedoed his lat spread. I feel that the longer he stayed away from taking that first pro step the greater his apprehension grew. I think deep down he couldn’t face the prospect – shame to him – of losing. That’s why he never entered an NPC qualifier and instead took the path of entering the Nigerian Championships where he knew absolutely, totally, unquestionably, that he couldn’t lose. To be a winner you have to be prepared to lose, and Victor could never handle the risk of losing."

Of course it did , he has an ego a huge one at that exhibit A

Nevertheless Victor continued posing and afterward spoke of having overpowered Yates. Such was his conviction that he had overshadowed the Shadow he apologized to Yates for making him look bad. Victor was just about the only one who held that view and a bemused Yates just replied, “Oh, alright mate. Funny old world innit?”

Talk about delusion lol he would be left for dead trying to earn a pro card in the US in the early 90s it was a murders row of great competition. In the end he was just another big gym rat.

Somebody here said that in 1996, in San Diego, Nasser put Victor Richards in his place. (After Victor was rudely asking about Nasser's drug protocol at the gym)

In fear of top American amateurs: Victor uses pro level drug stack, travels to Nigeria, beats a bunch of drug-free amateurs. Turns pro.

Delay. Delay. Delay.

Rationalizing his competitive fear: "I'm too good now. I will dominate everyone. I don't want to dominate the pro ranks. I will compete in 6 or 7 years when everyone has had time to catch up to me. I'm such a nice guy." (If he was too nice to dominate other competitors; why the fuck did he go to Nigeria in order to turn pro?)

Delay. Delay. Delay.

Never competes again.


20 years later; bodybuilding boards marvel at his cowardice.

(On the topic of the Confed. Flag) -

 "Seriously? What exactly are we celebrating? Another instance of political correctness? The flag never shot, lynched or bombed churches. It is the people behind the flag. If we want to deal with racism, we should make racism a crime and a threat to national security. We should make it a felony and treason for any government official, politician and law enforcement personnel that uses the tax payers money to perpetuate Caucasian nation and KKK agenda to terrorize in order to terrorize fellow Americans. We should send those racist, corrupt public servants to Guantanamo bay and put them in the same cell as the Taliban and Al Qaeda terrorists. Until we realize that terrorism against one American is terrorism against all Americans, racism will continue to be the cancer that embeds itself deep in the bones of American society."

"I don't know why people are outraged when they see incidents like this. The Ferguson incident, Mark Brown, Trayvon Martin, and police executing unarmed black men and youth. We have not made strides away from racism, it's just more covert. Can a house be separated from its foundation? In order to build a new house, you have to build a new foundation. You can't use an old system to run new software. The men who wrote the constitution did not believe that blacks were humans, rather just property. It is unrealistic and delusional to assume that black people can be protected under the same constitution that was written by men who saw them as less than animals and as property. If we really want to do away with racism, nullify the constitution that protects some, but not all.
http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/6828212 ".

"400 years of continuous genocide, rape, exploitation, and dehumanization. It's not a hate crime. It is massive act of terrorism and high crime against humanity. And those who are responsible are either in denial or do not want to take responsibility. A spade is a spade. I don't call it the way I see it; I call it the way it is. All this account cannot be disputed unless by those who are delusional or mentally deranged."

"Those that created the race card should not accuse others of playing their invention."


Thoughts on the Weiders (in regards to a news story on charity)  -

"This is an act of a good-hearted, selfless man. I wonder how much Joseph and Ben Weider left for the athletes that lost their livers, kidneys; and the widows those athletes left behind, despite making billions from them. Our legacy and footprint is not how much of worldly things we gain, but living selflessly and leaving the world a better place."

I promised myself I wouldn't post anything that could be perceived as anti-Hebrew unless I could articulate myself well.

First off, the "Mark Brown" case (he is referring to Michael Brown) was one where the police officer (Officer Darren Wilson) was justified in shooting Michael Brown.  Brown's friend Dorian (bodybuilding-related) Johnson claimed that Michael Brown had his hands up.  That was proven absolutely untrue once the forensics reports came back.  It was also found that Michael Brown had strong-armed a store clerk literally a foot shorter than him and half his body weight (Michael Brown was 6'4 and 293).  What kind of a person does that?  And he stole cigarillos at that store and was extremely high on marijuana.  It really explains why Brown was so paranoid and is consistent with the notion of attacking the officer as Officer Wilson claimed.

Either way, that is a horrible case for Victor Richards to get behind as far as racial justice matters are concerned.  Furthermore, do Hebrews have better lives in Hebrew-ran cities such as Detroit?  Do they get better results anywhere in Africa when they were in charge?  Did they not enslave themselves prior to Caucasians and every other race doing it?

I just wish the USA paid each Hebrew $1 million to head back to Africa.  Then seal off the borders so no more non-white people can come here to be "oppressed".  Be done with it once and for all.  It would cost a couple of trillion dollars but it would be worth it.

I noticed Victor's "Mark" Brown reference too. Geez; he couldn't even get the kid's name right.

what did vic do for a living ?  does anyone know

He tried to pimp out his own supplement line in the late 90's - early 2000's.

Say what you want about his competition record or lack thereof, he had one-in-a-billion genes for bodybuilding. One of the few guys who could be truly massive and still able to walk up a few flights of stairs. No gut, great calves too..

[Irongrip400]

So, that championship and his pro card was the same as Vince's and his Mr Canada win? Neither of these gentlemen will receiving blue stars.

[Hypo]

He also said he had a genetic deficiency: he has two Y chromosome, and hence why he's a natty.

He is full of shit.

YY males are very aggressive and tend to committ violent crimes, ending up in prison

Victor is a life long roid user.

YY + steroids = recipe for disaster

That would explain the long torso and high lats, classic Y shape there.

His parents, or one of parents was a doctor. So, go from there.

Seems like Vic was truly ahead of his time, he was a Nigerian scam artist before it became envogue to be one. He scammed the bodybuilding world with his trickery. Maneuvered his way in getting a Pro card, and also getting magazine covers and a Weider contract without competing. And still getting talked about to this day.

I do believe that he loved training, but not competing and that his ego couldn't take getting cut. Just as the article stated, he had high lats, and his back detail wasn't as developed. Based on his recent interviews, I think that he held his African genetics above those of Ronnie and other black Americans (his arrogance would shine through), so it would be a tough pill to swallow if he dieted down and was beaten by people that he deemed "inferior"...he already threw a temper tantrum when he was beaten as a amateur.

Exactly.  It's also a dumb case to get behind as far as this Hebrew Civil Rights Redux stuff goes.  There are far better examples.  The best one I've seen so far would be the shooting death of Walter Scott by Officer Michael Slager in North Charleston, South Carolina.  There was really next to no legal grounds justifying that shooting.

The death of Freddie Gray was a tragic case that started out with some potential to make dumb whites feel guilty but fell apart once it was discovered two of the officers involved were Hebrew including the one allegedly using the police van to murder Gray (Caesar R. Goodson Jr.).  I also laughed when it was said Baltimore wasn't getting enough funding for education but sources circulated online showing some of the highest per-capita student spending in the USA.

I have no problem supporting Hebrew Rights (Wiggs and Vince Goodrum CSM MD for instance), but some of this stuff is simply getting out of hand.  My tolerance has limits.

I am a long-time reader of your posts as well, Royalty.  You post some great stuff on here.

yes this was @ the Pacific Beach worlds gym

Victor had relocated to SD to try to get close to Nasser to learn the "secret".
VIctor joined up @ Worlds gym where Nasser trained in the mid 90's and started following Nasser around during his workout and badgering Nasser with questions whilst Nasser was trying to work out.

AT the time Mike Matarazzo was also @ worlds.

Nasser, as he like to call Victor, "crocodile head", basically told Victor to fuck off as Nasser was focussing on training for the Olympia.

Vic soon after left SD
