Still waiting for that list....

BTW...The IFBB isn't a monopoly...Lee himself has proved that you don't have to be in the IFBB to make money from BB...he has competed and won prize money, signed contracts, and has mentioned he has more than enough guest appearances.

Got that list togethe, yet...?

CHic can you put together a list of GOOD things the IFBB does. Please get that list together so we can see exactly why you support it so much.

Jack,

Are you aware of the many, MANY stories from back in the day about Chick's kinky bisexual antics? Rumor has it that gay for pay was involved...

No, please feel free to elaborate....

The IFBB has given many BBers the platform to make a good living fron being a professional BB....the same cant be said for any other organization. Ask Arnold, or Dorian, Haney, Ronnie, Jay, Shawn, Lee or any of the many others including myself...how being a part of the IFBB has led to making some damn good money doing what we love.

Name me the good any other federation has done for their athletes?

Sponsors make that happen....Not a federation. Weider brought Arnold to America.......He was in the Nabba first.

Seriously Chick.....come on..(LOL)...

And you? You don't make any money.

Chick doesn't make much money? Funny thing about this board is that sans superstars like Lee, the average poster probably makes more than their "idols". Doesn't say much for either organization.

I don't care about the opinion's of the Mr. O's or Athletes reps for IFBB. Ask the guys that spend the same amount of money on food and put 100% of their effort into their diet and training and deserve the publicity and cash and don't get it! The IFBB works very differently, to get ahead its who you KNOW and who you BLOW.

It's a free market, Lee...let some other federation start to offer any real money to compete, and I'll guaruntee they get some talent...the BBers will go where the money is.

shootfighter1 · « **Reply #62 on:** January 08, 2007, 11:01:56 AM »

I don't take sides....but if anyone challanged the IFBB in court I believe the IFBB stands a good chance of a loss for unfair market practices. In most business, you cannot restrict a sub-contractor's ability to find other employment or make a living. An employee agreement is different.

Thats your list. I swear to god I am eating cereal and milk came out of my nose. You are one funny guy. 40+ years and this is the list you come up with of good things the IFBB has done. And how about the organizations in Europe. The IFBB provides a platform to make a good living? Again, the IFBB does not pay their members a thing. IN fact they don't do anything in case their members don't get paid. Now you will say they guarantee prize money. Well that is a misleading statement since they will simply have a contest cancelled if they don't have the prize money. Then the promoter eats shit. Face it Chic you are fighting a losing battle and you are embarassing yourself with every post.

I love how you pass over the good stuff. You say REAL money. How do you explain after 40+ years the majority of IFBB shows pay less than PDI shows. How do you explain that. Where is the real money, in two shows a year. What an embarassement.

hi bob,

If "they will come" when more money is present, that means that they will generally be happier yes? well then wouldn't it make sense to allow them to compete in both federations in order to allow them to make more money? It seems that the restrictions placed on the IFBB bodybuilders puts them in a situation where the athletes make less but the people on top make more. If they were to compete in both federations then the bodybuilders themselves would be making more wouldn't they?
