Some interesting trivia from
www.musclememory.com about the 1990 IFBB World Amateur Championships:
As mentioned, Alq' won the Heavyweight class.
Placing second to Alq' was.... none other than Darrem Charles. WOW. This was 1990, folks. And in 2005 Darrem is still moving steadily up the IFBB pro ranks and his best days are still ahead, IMO.
Placing 4th in the Lightweight class that year was an 18 year-old Aussie by the name of Lee Priest. Or was he still 17?
Other than Charles and Priest, just about everyone else who competed in that show is ancient history now, competitively speaking.
