Title: Charles Dixon Is a Tank
Post by: McFarland on November 18, 2007, 04:41:05 PM
Imagine this guy a few pounds lighter, though.  Incredible structure and nice striations.  I wanna see where he takes it from here.  Anybody know what his next show will be?

Dixon is a guy I could see actually doing well in the IFBB long-term, unlike the show's "overall winner".

i agree.

great physique.  The only problem I see is nothing 'jumps out' at you.  The classically balanced physiques never seem to do as good as the freaks

Agreed, this guy looks like he could have some staying power.

Sure looks squatty from the back though, doesn't he?  Eh, probably just needs to be harder.  That front most muscular is professional level all the way, though.

Not everyone has the luxury of being 6'1.

This really is a great shot, I like this one alot.  All you can think of is that he should continue to bring that on down to perfection, though.  Like, yeah man, keep on going...

Yeah and that's also the reason I'll never be anywhere near that thick.  I'm convinced at this point I could never be a pro, but I still like training and dieting and I know I can be better than what I have been.  Matt shut up, this isn't about me.   ;D

Looking at any of these physiques; it's easy for me to motivate myself to get better, even though there is very little real-world likeness, it's odd but there's a basic aesthetic that you can still appreciate and you take what you like on these guys and try to imagine how you could get more like that, in various areas.  I think that's how it works; looking at them, it kinda helps you imagine what it must take, in order to look like this.  Like, real hard shit; alotta real hard shit; stuff inconceivable to most.

great quads from the front but looks wide waisted from behind, strange for a black dude to have a wide waist like that.

from the pic in the ball room it looks like he's got a bit of the Shawn Ray syndrome going on with quads almost taking over his whole body not as much as Shawn though.

Whatever, now Stan's smoking blunts with the G-Unit crew on tropical islands, that lucky fucker may not ever be back on a pro stage and I wouldn't blame him if he was done at this point one bit...Ha ha...You see how swelled up Dre and 50 are now?  That's Stan McQuay's work; talk about living the dream, he's been all about that shit from day one, that west coast rap shit, much props to him...Stan realized the ultimate dream, fuck bodybuilding.  Talk about a graduation, man.  Stan probably isn't even seeing this sport anymore...

Doing all this shit with an IFBB Pro Card, TOO?  Shit...hate all you want, but don't bother...chances are Stan can't hear a thing you're sayin'.  The boy's something else.

"The Experts" interviewed C.D. in our wrap up video. He's a cool dude who told us he is entering the NY 202 and under show for his debut. He works with Ifbb pro jonnie stewart. He packs a ton of muscle and will hold his own in the pros.

Dixon is da bomb.  A well deserved win.  He's entering the pro ranks at a good time, with three under 202 shows available next year.  Then he can work his way up like David Henry did.

Yea, he was working with some other folks a few years ago who didn't have his best interest at heart but he know has the folks behind him that will help him bring the pain in NYC.  Its amazing that that the under 202 division opened up however knowing Charles, he'll go chopping at the main competition.

He's not going to be settled with just a IFBB pro card and after he gets his long deserved rest from training and the tilapia fillets, he'll be back in the gym hard at work.

That's why he'll make a great pro champion because he loves to compete and he's not going to be content with that pro card.  Just like he did in football, he's going to be throwing some people around come showtime

Just to let you folks know about Stan, he's problably getting paid about 1.5-2  million dollars a year to train 50 Cent and problably even more for others so you can't really blame him for going out there doing all that.  More than likely, you're not going to see him on the stage ever again.  He may do one pro event just to do it but that's it.  I got no beef with him and years ago when he was still Musclemania he told me that he was going to get his just due and money that he's worth which is why he gave a finger to the Musclemania.  And quite frankly, I don't blame him.

You folks may think that its excessive and ludicrious but I'm basing this off the going rate for Puffy Combs personal trainer who makes 2 million a year.  50 cent will be a billionaire in about a few years due to his Formula 50 drink being sold to Coca-Cola.  The deal alone just to organize was worth a little over 500 million dollars and over time its going to get really big so he's not going to miss that money one bit.


Stan did the right thing and went for the money.  Bodybuilding is a sport but at his level, he wisely marketed his services and caught the big one

Some people just don't try hard enough.  I see guys walking around at 5'2" and I just have to scoff at their inability to put more effort into height.

1.5 - 2 million a year to train 50 cent ?....what are u smoking ?

Unbelievably, Vince is right about this one. 50 sold his shares of Vitamin Water to Coke and cashed out in the 500M range. He's got several business ventures that are looking like huge successes. Plus, it's not unprecedented for stars to pay unreal wages for trainers. I could see Stan making 1M+ for his work.

Wouldn't make a difference anyway, that's what contracts are for and Stan's smart enough to get everything in writing as well as have an attorney review the contract for him. 


Besides, I don't think that 50's going to give a damn anyway.  He's set for life and he problably won't come out with another record ever again
