The tentative list is out for the 2008 New York Pro Men’s contest, which will be held on May 10th, 2008 at the Tribeca Peforming Arts Theater, at 199 Chambers Street, in New York, and it looks like it is going to be a good contest. 32 competitors have signed on, and here is the list. Top favorites include Ben White, David Henry, Charles Dixon, and Ronny Rockel. Of course, one name that we have heard that is doing the show, but not on the current list is Kai Greene.

Don Long?
-
dennis james always does this show... i thought he would this year as well??
-
Didn't Ducasse just get arrested?
I hope its good...I just purchased 5 front row tix...
-
Don Long?!?!?!?!?!?! ::)
fixed
-
No Kai?
-
DON LONG?
I thought he had severe kidney issues?
Does every entrant pose at the nite show? Anybody know?

"kidney issues"? That's an understatement. He's on home dialysis.
-
I've heard of like 8 of those guys.
-
Anyone wanna guess the color of Tricky Jackson :D
-
Anyone wanna guess the color of Tricky Jackson :D
I think he is white, "Tricky" is a stage name. His real name is Blake Alfred Jackson IV.
-
Don does the nocturnal dialysis, 6 nights a week as he sleeps.
he must have another DVD coming out to push.
Bob, for old times sake, can you deny Don Long is doing the show? :)

hahahahahahaha...good times...good times

Of course, one name that we have heard that is doing the show, but not on the current list is Kai Greene.
From what we hear, Kai is doing the show.
Didn't Ducasse just get arrested?
I dont think he will be competing at the show, but he intended too.
Francisco Bautista, from Spain
Yes, he is supposed to and intends to compete at the New York Pro.
Until official contracts and agreements are in, they are not officially on the list.
-
Holy shit, what a list of nobodies. Of course Kai will do the show... he wouldn't even have to diet - just show up and collect $10k. Kamali could even qualify in that lineup. This is a far cry from Demilla's old NOC.
-
I heard Frank McGrath was supposed to do this show too. Hope his name shows up.
-
I suppose psychologically, Don Long just can't say no to being a freak. That's kind of sad, when a person's physical self image is such a dominant part of their self esteem. Unless someone has another explanation as to why he would be living a lifestyle of anyone but a saint right now.

The IFBB NY Pro...5/10/08
Is there not also a under 202lb. class...that Shawn Ray is Promoting the same day>?
And Species is promoting the IFBB Pro women as well....
-
so he took someones kidney, now he wants to fuck it up? What a douche.
-
The top 5 at this show make the Olympia. That should be reduced severely, this may be the worst line-up in IFBB history. 2 or 3 guys we've never heard of will be standing on the Olympia stage, yeah.

Definitely not the same show as Wayne's NOC.
-
We used to go to Wayne's NOC every year...he ran a 1st class show.
-
Odd that kai isn't on the list.
He'd be the top athlete, by far. I don't know why they'd neglect putting his name on the big announcement.
-
don Long, are you kidding me?
-
tricky jackson is indeed black. he is dexter jacksons cousin.
good physique, very aesthetic and has greta lines. sort of skinny though.

Are you kidding? Looks like it is going to be a good show? Mostly it's full of Z list competitors, with the *bigger* names like Henry and Rockel only stand out as the lineup is so poor. Take Greene out and you've got probably the worst IFBB list in recent and long term memory. Yeah, should be a really good show

You are very correct. The show's embarassing. What will be amusing is whne Bob and Dan do a review of the show on Pro bodybuilding weekly. How long will that take? 2 minutes?

33. Kai Greene
Z listers ago-go. There must be a fair few *pros* that are kicking themselves for not entering the show and being gifted an Olympia birth. Mind you, some of them could diet for a fortnight and still place amongst the "big" five "top spots."
This must be a promotors nightmare. Heck some of us getbiggers would have a chance amongst this lot. Heck Ron, why don't you put on the trunks?
A very embarrassing outing for the IFBB. Just imagine if Greene wasn't competing?

DON LONG
:-\ :-\ :-\
This guy is still beating up his poor broken body
-
man WTF.... just planned a trip to NYC may 10th for that!?
Kai Greene...ah well.
guess ill make up for it by shopping for sneakers or catching a yankees game. ::)
-
8. Guy Ducasse, USA
I think you can cross him off that list
-
8. Guy Ducasse, USA

just got busted right? shame...he was a sure-top -6 in that lineup
-
Looking forward to that Neset Icli vs Abiu Feliz comparison.....
-
Im going to go there and punch Kamali in the face...
-
I thought Dugdale was doing the NY Pro?
Looks like Kai win, David Henry (if he's in condition) gets second and Rockel makes it to the O.
-
Im going to go there and punch Kamali in the face...
Maybe we can both meet up and give him some Ric Flair style knife chops then running leg drops?
-
Martin Kjellström is from my gym, hope he does well. All the way huge. He was in death pool article some years ago, hehe.
-
Looking forward to that Neset Icli vs Abiu Feliz comparison.....
Indeed, it should be a show stopper-if it ever gets started.
-
maybe a few big names will see that lineup and decide to enter in an effort to score a scrub olympia ticket. I can think of one royal douchebag who can't break top 8 at a pie-eating contest who could gloat his way to an Olympia berth in that lineup.
-
Every pro-show has last-minute changes.
i wouldnt be surprised if some of the "small show guys" show up.
JOJ , Darrem, Quincy Taylor, Kamali , etc
-

hahah i wouldnt waste my time at an IFBB event lol.....imagine telling ppl in the real world what you did on sat. ??? yeah i went to a place where all these gays and roiders hang out and were tryin to sell me things....then at night we had a contest to see whos had the most ripped glutes hahahah BB is gayer than pink handcuffs and a gimp mask.

Are you actually coming down Collossus ? You heard of sour diesel ?
-
I'd be interested to see Joe Stubbs' improvements to his legs...Mr. Olympia upper body though.

then why don't you jump into posing trunks and show them how it is done, "determinator" ::)

NY Pro competitor list: The most embarrasing ever to grace an IFBB contest?
a sorry lot indeed.
This has got to be the Dark Ages of Bodybuilding, perhaps the begining of the end :'(
-
Are you actually coming down Collossus ? You heard of sour diesel ?
yeah i'm comin down to NYC...and no.
-
Im going to go there and punch Kamali in the face...
hahahaha
jack london punked your liitle bitch ass
you would ask kamali for an autograph,
;)
-
Im going to go there and punch Kamali in the face...
Hahahaah well played candidizzle. no he's not. Let's remind the getbiggers:
our little friend JJ was pulling on Rhino's skirt begging him to meet for a training session. Rhino finally accepted and was surprised to meet a sub 170lb asian kid so shy that barely said two words and was looking at the floor the whole time and weak as a cancer survivor; not the "internet badass" we hear on here ???
So no, you're not "punching" anyone in the face, most likely will be too shy to even speak to him. ::) ::)
-
thats a good point alex. glad you brought that up. :)
-
thats a good point alex. glad you brought that up. :)
Just calling it like it is my friend ;D
-
Jason Arntz is still around???
-
Lou Joseph as a darkhorse top 5.
-
Sergey Ogorodnikov, Russia - I saw saw Sergey at Las Vegas Gold's recently and was impressed. He's got one of those symmetrical 70's/80's builds without that current "bulky blunder" appearance.
It will be interesting to see how he does his first time up against some of these more seasoned pros. I just hope that he hasn't been training/preparing for that bloated stomach look that seems so prevalent now-a-days.
Good luck, Serge!

dude in all fairness, Rhino is as Hedge once said "a third tier Amateur who is on 3 grams of test a week to make up for hte fact he's still a fat boy inside" and not only that but trains with a androgynous creature that looks like a fat beefed up "Pat" from Saturday night live.
shit----I would probably not want to look at them either
and what does him being "asian" have to do with it ???-----I mean you were just moral grandstanding against everyone in the Y about racism but then post this shit :-\

Missing the point my friend; no matter what Rhino looks like, JJ begging to train with him and then turning out to be the way he is, ownage of a century. ;D
and he's asian insn't he? Nothing wrong with that ;D
-
Lou Joseph as a darkhorse top 5.
Hope he does well, looks 30-40 pounds bigger the he really is. Go Lou.
Rockel is the only one in that line up that has won a pro show, unless you count David Henry's wild card victory.
-
Jason Arntz is still around???
How did he break his arm?
-
dugdale, freeman, alves, taylor, and cormier should all jump in it would be an easy olympia qualification
-
no Branch Warren ???
-
no Branch Warren ???
saving himself for the olympia, he has already qualified, i think that he can beat kai, if he come in the right shape and looks healthy

OWNED!!!
Dam that shit is Brutal!
-

Freeman has already qulified. The other names that you mention can't really just "jump in, " despite the fact that the line up is very week, as they would still need X amount of weeks to diet down, presuming that they are urrently in off-season shape. The show is only a fortnight away.

We used to go to Wayne's NOC every year...he ran a 1st class show.
WHY did he ever quit the IFBB? or was he booted...

add paco "freak" bautista

and he's asian insn't he? Nothing wrong with that ;D
I understand and respect your point bro, but choose to disagree with you----I think JJ is a good guy and not someone to be groveling at the feet of a bloated, red faced slop.
Perhaps I misunderstood your tone wiht the Asian thing, but it seemed derogatory.
Regardless, I respect both you and JJ and I'm sure JJ can defend himself.

Trivia quiz: Who's familar with 10 of the Z list competitiors from this year's superb NY Pro line up?
I am.. A few names aren't on the list like Kai & Tony Freeman..
-
It would be great to see Joel Stubbs qualify for the Olympia. Given this line-up and how he has looked in shows in the past he is a legitimate contender for top five. If Kai and Paco show up well it will be harder.
