Yeah, I know his age but all I see is drooping everything. His shoulders look like crap. You know he has ZERO legs. So he has arms that are as big as your average trainer. He looks like shit !!!!!

Definitely looks good for his age, but seriously, if he didn't he would have almost no income. He doesn't really have any sort of bodybuilding or film career anymore.

From what I saw on IMDB Lou has a pretty damm good income just from residuals.  I bet he easily makes $100,000 per year just from residuals if not allot more.  Pretty sure he invested in real estate too.  So I don't think you need to worry about his finances.  But I am sure he appreciates your concern.

Yeah stallone is making a fool of himself making millions of dollars, while ferrigno is charging $20 for a picture of himself (a washed up guy who never did anything worth mentioning) and bringing up lawsuits for his family members using their own last name.   Stallone sure is a fool  ::)

he has more income than 95% of all pro bb retired  ....still he's in better shape than all of them.

Wrong, Stallone spent MILLIONS on that Rocky movie ...It was a major commercial dissapoinment'
 and got caught with roids on an aiport and still looks horrible the media looks at him as a joke.

all you bash about Lou it's on a personal level has nothing to do with how he is perceived by the media.

That really doesn't mean much, doesn't seem like many retired bodybuilders would be more than upper middle class at most. Still, charging kids $20 for a signature is rarely the sign of a financially secure "celebrity".

The total US box office gross for Rocky Balboa as of March 29, 2007 stands at $70,269,899 while the international gross stands at $84,896,520 making for a total worldwide gross of $155,166,419. That's only oh, HOW much more money than anything Lou has done has made? Also, it was GH, which are not steroids. What a dumbass.

Well this was meant to b an "appreciation thread about a bb" and nothing more

instead of appreciating Lou as a bb...morons around here are making fun of his  income,law suit,money,picture sells,Stallone's movies gross etc,etc ..

im saying is that for a bb he makes more than most...but i didn't bring the income issue on the first place

i wish people could  make comments related to bodybuilding.

It does when you have a reality show "the contender" in FOX, a line of supplements "Instone"on the market nation wide and a book about your life how good u look with just working out and good nutrition...

Two years later, Fox didn't carry your Reality show due to poor ratings... ended up on Espn 2 or something like that ..Instone it's cut by half by all carriers...The book? well after 2 plastic surgery gone wrong,Rocky coudn't make the weekend home box office report, and what do you do to bring your image back up?? busted for taking GH to another country and still looking like an old lady rather than his former self..

I think "attempting to smuggle GH " makes more sense than you think.

if you think otherwise try and see if you'll be forgive on all three charges as Sly was.

Here we go again,  if Arnold or Lou or any famous muscle man for that matter is caught with heroin or cocain or grass...they won't b pointed as cheaters by the media or society....


now Sly was caught with GH what difference does it makes? will you go door by door telling people that GH is not steroids?



Train and eat healthy you too can look like this

Lou is sticking to his true love wich is bodybuilding...

and makes our "little sport' look good everywhere he walks in...

while Sly is a joke compare to the average movie star of this era...

i guess everything in life has a price tag on it.

I have had 2 run ins with Lou and both times he was a total Ass!!! I will leave it at that!!!

He looks amazing for his age and Yes prolly the best out of all 70 and 80's retired Bodybuilders. But he ranks right at the top for being a Douchebag. I bet he could get a full endorsement from Massengill if he tried!!!

How does Lou make it look good?  Most people think he's an asshole when they meet him.

How is sly a joke?  I'll take his career box office gross over any so-called "action hero" they're trying to push these days....he would demolish it.

You know what, you're right. Stallone who was never a pro bodybuilder must feel completely inferior, what with his two Oscar nominations, the Oscar win for Rocky, and stock in Planet Hollywood. Certainly hasn't felt the need to sell his image for $20 a pop to little kids.

You do know that Stallone is only the second person in history to be nominated for both best original screenplay and best actor at the Academy Awards

I wouldn't mention the Planet Hollywood since it didn't really make him much money if any.  They gave him stock in Plnet Hollywood along with other superstars to use their names and have them go to grand openings.  It was to give the restaurant credibility.  But in the long run that restaurant didn't do much.  Are there still some around I know not many.  I think they are in some foriegn countries.  When I spent a month in Hong Kong I went there and Hard Rock all the time. The Capn Crunch chicken was the best they had.
