Blockhead, I also see no reason to cast ill will, personal insults or throw stones at GV.
Obviously, the man has struck a cord with the underground , get swole, freak lover ,side of this sport.
I suspect MD editor Steeve Blechman knows this as well.
Once again, I believe most when they claim he is a nice guy and fun to be around with, etc.
I sincerely believe the man has some level of body dysmorphic disorder and a tad self absorbed.
Instead of being "one of many" with a good state level body he opted to go for the complete freak look.
In the process he abandoned his chance to actually compete as an actual bodybuilder.
I just can't fathom why anyone would follow or think this guy is representaitive of bodybuilding but obviously he must be to some around the sport. THAT, I just can't comprehend???Why would anyone think that a complete disotortion of ones' physiue is cool?
