Title: Why did Kelly "Retire" from Fitness?
Post by: Motorbreath on December 26, 2005, 11:17:18 AM
There is a story floating around that they had a "retirement party" for Kelly a few weeks ago.......what was she retiring from...Fitness I imagine??

Anyone know why........seems like she really had a MAJOR MELTDOWN after placing 4th last year, when she expected to be Mrs. Fitness O..

I think she was just tired of not getting her due. Can't blame her for that.

This is a great moment for someone to post Titus hilariously screaming in the crowd of the olympia when she copped yet another 2nd.

I don't know much about the girls but it did seem she deserved atleast one olympia.  She was kind of like the Cutler of that class.

Kelly got way more that what she was due for too long.  Fitness is not about plastic surgury, it is about hard work and dedication.  Now, not saying she did not work hard, but her physique has been getting worse over the last 3 years, and while her routines are always great, she has not done anything new for at least two years.

It blows me away the fact she's only 33 years old.....

I thought she was like 43.

Oh, please.  While I never agreed that Kelly was the Second Coming, there were several Olympias where she should've placed higher than she did.  Keep in mind that we're talking about competitive fitness within the IFBB, so unless you want to get laughed out of town, you should drop the "it's about hard work and dedication" schtick. 

During her competitive career, it's safe to say that only Jenny Hendershott and Stacy Hylton were in her class when it came to fitness routines.

Well - for one fitness is very taxing on the body. Kelly had been at it many years, had her share of injuries, she could not exactly do it forever.

The physique round is very subjective, but the routine round is easier to discern who is 'simply better' - and Kelly was one of the best - end of story. I agree with Tre, only Stacey & Jen [however I'll add Kim Klein into that] were at Kelly's routine level.

Personally, I felt that Kelly was underscored at times.

Because of Craig, because of her own outgoing nature, or because of other reasons?

I never followed women's competitions until this year.  I think judged Craig was pretty fairly in his career.

she looks like shit with all that surgery she got.  basically, she started going downhill after she got with craig.  her drug usage increased as well as her partying/rec drug usage dramatically increased as well to match craig's antics.

Her due? You don't win through seniority.

Apparently this guy's also open to farm animals, pay no attention to this blathering idiot.

She's cute, even though her skin now looks leathery from all the tanning, drugs and bulemia.
Mug shots are no basis though - bad lighting, lack of sleep, drugs, driving for days on end, stress-no one's looking good in those.
