Title: IFBB Ban best thing ever for Lee Priest
Post by: LOVESMINGE on May 31, 2010, 02:15:22 PM
Since his ban he has made more money than ever, less competitions means more money and a lot less costs.Hell he even has his own supps company now.And to think most of you guys thought he was washed up.Each day Lee would say thanks IFBB, the ban worked out just fine.

Making money $$ in BB via supplement endorsement , etc has a LOT more to do with fan base and exposure than contests.
Victor Richards never competed once as a pro NOT ONCE and he did ok * never understood that myself)
Lee did get his fan base via exposure from his showing in IFBB pro events however.

This is correct Lee will be just fine on his reputation from past events, he will never enter another show why should he?

stop making blanket statements..........his supplement company pretty much just launched, really too early to tell if he is making money off it or not yet.....

Nothing funny about it...

Lee was under a six figure contract, when he was banned, he lost that contract, along with numerous guest posing appearances and prize money...

If you had any knowledge of the subject, you wouldnt make stupid comments
Title: Re: IFBB Ban best thing ever for Lee Priest
Post by: Chick on May 31, 2010, 05:26:49 PM
Actually that makes it even funnier!  :D  :D ;D ;D




Again, it only begs for stupid comments from those ignorant to the business...what it begged for, was a more in depth explanation if you really wanted to know the truth

No but seriously, you were begging for "stupid comments" like that when you just mentioned the money and didn't say anything else.

He was with the PDI when he initially lost the contract, etc...after that, he was still under suspension, then had a few injuries...

Bob do you ever see a guy like Wayne D back promoting Pro shows where he gave away Millions.Fuk if you read an IFBB pro contest list and prize money from 2003 it reads like a great Pro organization.These days you still have 10k shows smelling up success.

Honest question why does he not return to the stage? He looks in good shape now but I dont think he will return just your insight.

LOL..."millions"...must have missed that year

 IFBB Prize money today is higher than its ever been...

How many "millions" did he give away in his last two shows?

            I find that statement WRONG check an old 2003 IFBB Pro list of cash prize and contests way more contests and way more cash.If I am wrong post the two sheets and let us compare 2003 and 2009, as the Rep I am sure you have that information somewhere close.

The New York Pro is a good example. When Wayne D was promoting it, the Night of Champions was the 2nd biggest show after the Olympia (before the Arnold Classic came along), attracting the top tier of competitors. Since being renamed the New York Pro, the show has lost the prestige it once had and has become just another run of the mill show that struggles to attract a high quality line up.

Wayne is a promoter.  The IFBB has NO promoters.  Doesn't that queer Weinberger have something to do with that show.

blond hair white guys ala jay are a rarity in the Top 20...so lee f##ked himself out of 150-200k plus each yr of his ban.  and his sup line isnt going to be that GREAT and recover those loses.  know when to be a REBEL n not to be.

Weinberger couldnt promote a car lot giving away free cars. They lost alot when they lost Wayne Demilia
