Why no hype for Toney Freeman?
« on: August 22, 2008, 09:11:30 AM »
After his horrible showing last year most said he was done.  He won a second tier show in the Europa but it still was a win for a guy people have written off.  Does he have what it takes to make the top 5 at the O if he comes in dry and ripped?

5th is the best he could place in the O this year, the top 4 are on lock.  I think he could do it if he nails it

 A lock ?

Wow - that is funny but very motivating

Who would be those Locks ?

I would like to analysis them to see what you mean!

Also - I would like to know if you are a judge/ Dark Blue Jacket or someone that watches Webcasts and borrows magazines from your local gym

Flexonline-http://www.flexonline.com/toney_freeman_flex_lewis_interview/news/523

Flexonline - coverage


There is no so call Hype - Because there is nothing to Hype up -
5 shows and 2 to go - X is a national Champion from  the NPC - who is doing what Bodybuilders are suppose to do - Compete !

Becoming Productive and a Force , He took five years off and returned to the sport, Last year was great with a disappointing showing at the O - No excuses - refocused  he pounded back from a outside the Top Ten to Knocking on the door -

Ironman
Arnold
Austrlia
New zealand
Tampa
Europa

Since he is old as dirt - He decided to compete with his Peers at the Masters http://www.ifbb-npcatlanticcityproam.com/  ( Freeman made a promise to the Promoter years ago to compete! He is living up to his obligations )

When asked what next :
" shape , symmetry and size - Represent BB the best way I know how, 100% everyday all day - No off seasons - people pay to see BB - not IFBB Pros warm up for a Big show! Some fans can not get to the Big show, whether it be cost or personal obligations -  But this about people getting in shape and living the good life. When people ask me about nutrition and working out - Their eyes tell the whole story - The want to know how to get better! I will tell them.

Kevin Levrone and Lee Haney among the other super stars did that for me when I was starting out and Since I am blessed to be where I am - I must give back ......pause he had to eat ......So That is Why I am so Focused, I almost lost all this  momentum last year!

 With my family , friends , encouragement from Weider Fam, the judges and my team- they reminded me what a Champion is ..  So the Hype is for people who need it , I want the Mr.O title and responsibility to be the ambassador of Fitness ..... plus I hear they pay you for all this too .... hahahahaha http://www.toneyfxman.com/

Toney won 2 shows with no sponsor and works with someone from MD while signed to Weider

This year- " It is a contest"

I think he probably still subscribes to all the mags and beleives that the "pros" really follow the training and nutrition programs they hype in there.

Unfortunately Toney has a boring physique.  He deserved his wins according to the judging criteria of bodybuilding, but nothing pops out as especially great.  He doesn't have the greatest back, chest, arms, etc...  It all just flows exceptionally well.  Dennis James has that "Holy Shit" factor despite his symmetry problems.  Its odd to say, but sometimes the imbalances make for a much more interesting bodybuilder.

dont get me wrong...big toney is def deserving to battle 1 and 2 at the O IMO because of how close he comes to presenting a perfect body for bodybuilding standards...he has one of the prettiest  (no homo) Builds of all the bb's...
.were just factoring bb politics and bullshit...
bb'ers like D.Charles, Freeman, Anthony, would win in my mr o...If i had a "Mr. Look crazier than a muthafucka contest" complete with one bodypart bodybuilders like "J, i have big shoulders and stomach" Cutler... thats a different story
