Way to go!

What are the rest of the placings?
-
Congrats Darrem. When he comes in shape, hard to beat.
-
funny thing is no one even mentioned his name on here prior to the show and he just goes out and wins as usual, lol!
-
Darrem
Quincey (*ha)
Jackson
Cormier
Fouad
-
Congrats to Darrem he looked amazing in the photos. Quincy ahead of Johnnie? Johnnie destroyed QT and could have possibly won the show because he outmuscles Darrem. Chris was watery as hell in the glutes and hams and so was Troy but from the front both of those guys looked great.

Darrem
Quincey (*ha)
Jackson
Cormier
Fouad

Better give Cormier that special invite to the Olympia >:(
-
hahahaha, i can just hear Cormier complaining about how a "legend" like him was placed unfairly. ::)
-
I thought kamali actually looked pretty good
his conditioning was lacking, but he had tonnes of muscle
-
KK?
King was too heavy and lost the crispness of his last showing. Needs to drop about 10lbs of water and he would look much better.
-
Where did KAMALI place?
-
I thought kamali actually looked pretty good

i agree, except for the bulges hanging off the sides of his stomach from the back he looked huge, the legs looked bigger than usual.
-
Where did KAMALI place?
9th? ;D
-
all of his attitude problems aside anyone who thinks Kamali looks like shit there needs to have their eyes examined, he looks huge there.
-

Charles is already qualified, so, that means, Taylor, Jackson, and Cormier are going to the O
-

::)
he looks like shit...waist fucked up..so are the arms+calves
edit: as i said before..he used to be pretty good...first year as a pro+before he became a pro.
-
Charles is already qualified, so, that means, Taylor, Jackson, and Cormier are going to the O
too bad you couldn't go back in time and bring your 1993 physique to these shows today, you'd wipe the stage with any of these guys.
-
Charles is already qualified, so, that means, Taylor, Jackson, and Cormier are going to the O
4th only gets the qual if all three of 1-3 are already qualified.
No O for Chris.
-

Sweet. The Real Deal back on the Olympia stage 8)
-
King looked better than the 06 NY Pro but to me the 07 Europa is Kings best showing in a long while.
-
4th only gets the qual if all three of 1-3 are already qualified.
No O for Chris.
Man this is confusing me. So is he going or not?!
-
King looked better than the 06 NY Pro but to the 07 Europa is Kings best showing in a long while.
he looks great there, you just want to jump onstage and cut two inches off each side of his waist and put 2 inches on each arm.
-
::)

edit: as i said before..he used to be pretty good...first year as a pro+before he became a pro.
if that's looking like shit i'll take it any day.
-

Actually...you're incorrect.
If the top 3 are previously qualified,THEN the 4th place gets a bump for qualification.
If any one of the top 3 are already qualified, it's only the top 3 that go...
-
King did look a lot better than i thought he would come in looking in like. Obviously wasn't going to be a threat, but still a good showing.
-
Actually...you're incorrect.

No, he's not.
-

well you know alot about looking like shit so that doesnt come as a surprise. :-*
the thing with kamali is that he could have been alot better...but several poor choices has fucked him up.
-
There is no confusion...if Chris goes to Atlantic City and places in the top 3...then he'll qualify outright.
Lets say for the sake of conversation, that the top 3 in AC were Melvin, darrem and JOJ, and Chris was 4th....THEN he would get the bump...
-

hahahha, coming from a guy with no picture posted, come on sweetie post one up i promise i won't rip into you too bad. :D

Thanks Chick, so there is still hope for the Real Deal 8)

like i said i'm not a fan of the guy's attitude but you can't deny the man is huge.
-
Chick! Do you think your buddy Kamali should retire? It's obvious at this point his days of succesful placings are over.
-
like i said i'm not a fan of the guy's attitude but you can't deny the man is huge.
so is greg kovacs!
-
It is if you're the winner! ;D
well, it worked great for you ;)
-
well, it worked great for you ;)
were you ever the overall winner of the NPC USA's?
-
What's king trying to pull off by wearing a thong? :P
-
so is greg kovacs!
owned ;D
-
you my friend have insulted the word shit!
hahahaha Kamali makes Ruhls back poses look dry to the bone ;D
-
were you ever the overall winner of the NPC USA's?
it was a compliment, are we abit slow today ehh? ;D
chick made great gains after switching to working a muscle once a week..back in 94 or so, and had one of the best physiques in the early 2000s

well then we agree i think Bob has one of the best phyisiques ever.
-
well then we agree i think Bob has one of the best phyisiques ever.
def, in the shape he was at his 2000 NPC win..he would be among top 5 in the world today.
edit: better than many of the arrogant fucks he has interviewed and made shows about over at bb.com
-
Troy has to go to the Atlantic city so must king....................
-
Cormier was depressed as shit when i was talking with him outside (took off with a hot Chick that my friend hooked him up with i believe! lol always the player CC...) , but he said he'll be back and HOPES to qualify for the "O"...i told him he surely CAN do it, and not be so tough on himself...Last year wolf got thrown aside to Kamali, and he didnt say nothing, just came back and kicked ass.
Johnny, in my opinion got screwed...he left almost immediately...did not see him.
King took off also right away, no sign of him after his routine at night-show.
Fouad was impressive, also was FREDERIC SAUVAGE from fance...he had the best conditioning...was only 210 pounds, but amazing!
Milos was there, cool guy.
Overall a good show, darrem put one-hell of a routine on (Check youtube soon, ill put it on there)
i would have had JOJ and Darrem battling for first... Chris cormier in 3rd solid, and Fouad and Quincy fighting for 4 & 5.
in person it;s another story.
they boo'ed the shit out of the judges when they called Johnny 3rd. [ not so many boo's for Chris' placing, they were fine with it i guess]
Peace

can you tell us the prize money for the top 3 placings?
seems like most of the guys lost money by doing this show

no...medals...and photos, which appear in magazines, which gets them money from the sponsors...so they actually DO make something good out of it.

Cormier will be top 3 in Atlantic City!

hahahha, coming from a guy with no picture posted, come on sweetie post one up i promise i won't rip into you too bad. :D
And that, coming from a guy who has not any weightlifting experience what so ever, is even more ridiculous. Where is your pictures, meaning pictures which are taken of you, not from just some guy whose pictures you claim to be you? Never seen any, I wonder why, but maybe there is a good reason, like the fact that you are a little brat, just pretending to be an adult...A 14 years old retard, who has no life outside of these forums...and by the way, do you have reached an average of 50 messages per day, and if not, what you are going to do to reach that goal? It have to mean some radical changes in your schedule, meaning that you have to use even more time here, and how that is even possible? Less wanking and more writing? No sleep at all? You have to ask your nurse that she allows you to use more time on your computer?
-
kamali will never win or place top 5 in any show ever again,,he can still make a living as a bodybuilder but it is all over for him,,he did as much as he could and his genetic repond to hormones was average but even an average respond can be abused inorder to be able to compete among the best,,he abused it and payed the price
he will never see a win in a pro contest,,same as the murderer in a way,,all talk no walk,,and now too late because no one will ever be able to make this waist small unless it goes down to 200lb,,
as a professional bodybuilder that is 5'8 5'9 you simply cant do nothing on stage at 200lb now days
his 8place is a gift,,he shut his mouth,,the judges like him because he closed his mouth,,it is indeed a gift 8 place for him now days
-
King has made much improvements. He was harder at the Europa show, but I think he looked pretty good at the Montreal pro - just needed to drop some more water.. Is he going to be competing next week?
-
you can not compete at 240-250lb or over with arms who fit a 200-210lb bodybuilder
you can not compete at 240-250lb or overwhen your original nice triangle middle eastern physiqe became a blocky mess of diff oily body parts
you can not compete at 240-250lb or over when your waist is almost as wide as your shoulders,,if you have blocky waist you GOT TO HAVE VERY VERY WIDE SHOULDERS,,,kamali does have wide shoulders but not wide enough for his horrid waist
this waist is a soild factor that will never go away,,it might stay this size and wont go the palumbo complete distruction route,,but this waist will never ever get smaller unless you take the liver and kidnys out or shrink down to under 200lb and he is not 5'6 so he cant do it
bad choices,,ego,,fights with bodybuilders 100 times better than him,,thinking he was the best with out backin it up,,practially all talk no walk

Pretty harsh bro.
Do you think deep down he has known it for a while but still in a concious denial?
-
all of his attitude problems aside anyone who thinks Kamali looks like shit there needs to have their eyes examined, he looks huge there.
huge but smooth

From Flex "Cormier, in his first contest in nearly two years, narrowly missed out on qualifying for the Olympia. A year ago, a severe back injury almost ended Cormier's career

no...medals...and photos, which appear in magazines, which gets them money from the sponsors...so they actually DO make something good out of it.
it's not the complete waste you think it is.
They don't get paid for contest photos in mags...only if they do a photo shoot and sometimes they dont even get paid for that. That is the problem with pro bb, no money disspersed amongst all athletes competiting.

priceless

gh 15 nailed kamali's fate.he once showed promise many years ago and in the bbing world 5 or 6 yrs is a long way ,cause the body will quit to respond to the bbing conditions needed to be the best or at least to peak at least once to get a win.guys like darrem charles type body was able to progress with size but peak condition wise every time for years and not miss a beat at least top 3 in smaller shows for a good run now.kamali could not find the balance either too much size or conditioned but fullness flattened out ,he responded with a quicker route, synthol to keep up with jonses and what did that do.same old ,same old,,,,
-
King looked better than the 06 NY Pro but to me the 07 Europa is Kings best showing in a long while.
As long as he didn't have to do a double biceps pose. ;)
Shaq said it best:
Don't fake the funk in the double biceps.
-
Pretty harsh bro.
Do you think deep down he has known it for a while but still in a concious denial?
he still place 8,,5,,so i dont think he understand it,,but he will eventually,,beside placing 8 in a pro show even if small is decent,,many pros dont place top 10 in any show,,so he is bad but not greg k bad,,but its bad enough to think post bodybuilding life since he wont be running at 40 on stage,,hopefully
-
sorry if i'm not up-to-date on this...but what's the Dillet / Christian Lobarede joke here? ... don't get it? Dillet actually banged his wife?
-
I agree with gh15 about kamali, he doesnt have what it takes to be a top bber
-
I'd challenge anyone to look better than that after knowing that Dillett's fucked your wife.
damn, you cut deep

While you're right, it is a good point. A professional athlete wins EIGHT contests and only comes away with 80K in winnings? That's not right. The IFBB needs to do a better job of getting that prize money higher. Perhaps they could do more work licensing their images, etc to generate money to use in contests (to supplement what promoters offer). Or they could set up a better website with webcasting for every contest and charge $1.95 to view each contest, with the money going toward the BB's. I'll bet a lot of people would be willing to pay a small amount like that to watch (assuming it worked really well and included backstage interviews, etc). There are a ton of ways to generate more revenue to better support the athletes.

I was just at the supermarket, 10 minutes ago (in Montreal). There's maybe 10 people in there, and in walks Quincy Taylor with some guy returning a water jug. Dude was immense, and taller than I thought. I'm 6'1' and he was a good 3 inches taller. Naturally, he went straight to the produce. ;)
-
I want to see the guys that Jocelyn Petlier placed ahead of! WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone, seriously post pics or link to the guys that looked worse than Jocelyn...I'm in need of a good laugh.

He didn't place ahead of anyone. After the top 15, they're all in last place with the same score.

At the Metro on St. Charles, in the West Island. He looked somewhat different and I wasn't sure till his friend called him by name. His head wasn't completely shaved and he normally looks like he has two black eyes. Must be when he's dehydrated. Actually, no one was staring.
