http://www.anthonyroberts.co.za/2010/06/bros-vs-pros-as-seen-by-infinity-fitness/
Any truth to the claims in the 'email' allegedly received by Roberts?
So here you have it……As stated by Dave in many radio shows and videos BSN was putting up 3000 dollars (2000 for the men and 1000 for the women) ……. Now comes the truth behind another Palumbo LIE……..On Thursday evening June 24th One of the owners of Infinity Fitness received a phone call from Dave that he was not able to raise the money for the event and that he needs Infinity Fitness to write him a check in the amount of 3000 dollars……Now Infinity Fitness has already let Rxmuscle use the gym free of charge and now they are paying Rxmuscle 3000 dollars to cover the prize money that was never part of the agreement.
On the eve of the event the staff of Infinity Fitness moved all the equipment in the gym into one corner of the gym to make room for all the spectators of the Bros vs Pros event and no members of Rxmuscle staff ever showed up to lend a hand. The gym was now in the state of utter disaster and you were unable to use the gym as a gym for PAYING members still looking to train….
The day of the event comes and numerous times Dave plugs BSN on the bros vs pros video as being the sponsor for forking over the 3000 dollars of prize money….but the money actually came from the GYM OWNERS own pocket which they never received any credit for because then people would know that Palumbo has been giving free advertising to BSN or is it that Palumbo is pocketing the prize money from multiple sources while some other smaller advertiser gets a simple thank you for letting us use the gym for the day…..
Now the day is over and the rxmuscle crew loads up their cars and drives off with 3000 dollars in prize money from Infinity Fitness and a simple thanks guys for letting us use the gym…..the gym is left in utter disaster and when Sunday morning comes around and members show up to find out that they can basically do cardio and anything that does not require a bench because they are buried in a corner until Monday……here is the best part now as PAYING gym members that had nothing to do with the bros vs pros or even knew anything about the stupid event were entering the gym they were asked if they would like to join the rest of the gym staff at 7 pm Sunday to comeback to help put everything back into place to be able to reopen Monday morning……all this is happening while the rx crew is home resting and relaxing from being catered to all day Saturday
Did the owner of the gym really give RX $3000?
-
a better question would be "is the gym owner retarded for allowing it to proceed past having to cough up the prize money"
-
Palumbo seems like a great guy to do business with.
-
Someone give Dave a link to this thread. He's going to want to tell his side of the story. If this version stands, no one will touch him with a barge pole.
What say you in this matter, Dave?
-
Dave is alot like Sean Ray. Seems like a cool guy on the outside but when you do business with him it is like you are doing business with a crook (with him an ex-con). Just like people who like Sean Ray, it is the same thing, it is the people who have never done business with them that like them. And in most cases the people that like them have never met them. Like Goodrum who loves Palumbo and always mentions how I owe him money. Sorry Goodrum you got your facts mixed up as always trying to make me look bad. Palumbo is an ex-con who is on record ripping people off. Great guy to do business with ::) ::) ::) ::)

OMG, how pathetic is that? That whole industry is so pathetic and laughable, it almost hurts. ::)
To be honest, most people (*I know) within the industry do not believe that BSN is paying much if anything to sponsor RxMuscle.com. After speaking with numerous industry-insiders, it appears that BSN is helping cross promote RxMuscle online, and receiving the appearance of sponsorship as a result.
In truth, while the average member of RxMuscle has been led to believe that there is a huge payoff here, the reality is that I can’t see any money (*or very little) changing hands. Rx is likely providing free advertising to BSN, with the tangible benefit of providing the “appearance” of having a big-time sponsor. In other words, by simply providing free (*or nearly free) advertising to a huge company, the folks over on RxMuscle have created the appearance of success, i.e. the appearance that they are a site that can attract big-time sponsors.

Not to mention he was busted for selling fake GH. Taking hard earned money from people and giving them tap water. Palumbo is a scumbag. Who knows how long and how much fake GH he sold before he was finally busted.
-
What a sad industry when the sponsor can't even wrangle up $3000.
-
thread delete in 4 3 2 1...

Fuck that thread deletion shit. Palumbo is a fraud and a greasy scumbag. Im glad Manion bitch slapped Palumbo in the face at the Teen/Collegiate last year for his girl trying to spray tan in the hotel room......all TRUTH

See, I don't personally have any problems with Dave and he's never ripped me off...except for that time I paid full retail for their mac nut oil. lol Well, his wholesale endorsement of WMS is a potential point of contention, but it's not something he and I are going to debate. Outside of that, everyone I know pretty much considers him a 'good guy'.
The fake GH case is a tough one, though. A lot of people have given Dave a pass on that, but in my eyes, to sell GH is one thing - totally cool - but to sell a fake *anything* is bad, as that's a crime of deception.
Anthony Roberts' problem here, however, is that no one else has come forward to corroborate his claims.

Regardless if this story is true or not ?? when are people gonna realize that this industry is more shady than even the porn industry by a mile !!
-
in an industry full of crooks, lairs, thieves, and scumbags...........dave palumbo has developed a reputation (except for the idiots who follow him) as the BIGGEST thief and scumbag
that 'fun guy' persona that he cultivates for the hundred posters on his website is just that, a persona..............in real life, palumbo is very short with people, very arrogant, and a general piece of shit
there is defiantly financial turmoil over at the Rx and species camp...........as evinced by the fact that yesterday on their heavy muscle show it was announced out of the blue that john romano will be moving back to flordia..............the y hyped his move to NY for over a year, so everyoen could be in one place for the radio shows, and TV shows that never came to fruition. palumbo was providing romano with a house of his, probably with a discounted rent
then.............out of no where..............he is going back............this combined with the legal issues Species is having says a lot. i dont know what asshole would EVER fork over a dime for Palumbo's overpriced garbage.............all his products cost almost double the industry standard..........do people REALLY believe that his products, his protein powder for example, is something special or different
they are not good people, they are crooks, i wish only bad things for all of them...........

Dave, can i get some GH ::) ::)

I think that's pretty interesting. I checked out a portion of one of their 'RxTV' broadcasts online and thought the video and sound quality were excellent. Even though they all talked way too fucking much instead of just getting to the point, I think having everyone together does make for a much better show.
Many people may not like Romano, but I think he adds a lot of color to any conversation. He's got the time in service, plus real experience with people from all walks within the industry...not impossible to replace, but they certainly won't be able to find a 'Romano II'.
I wonder if he has people to help move this time. That seemed to be an issue during his last move. lol

All Dave has to do is post up his version of events. Staying silent is business suicide. Better to nip this sort of thing in the bud, Dave.

X2 There's always two sides to a story, better to air your side than let incorrect statements stand.

We could chalk this up to the absence of Derek ;D
In reality things see odd. Dave has a lot of cash for a BB who never made it . . . multimillion dollar house, 100k car ( lease through Species THE BEEF suspects ) and the cash flow to attempt to build Rx and Species up quickly from scratch.
Romano is another thing . . . went bankrupt trying to pyramid mortgages on " stated " income ( income which he misrepresented. ) Somehow he managed to hide his ( the banks ) Porsche when the heat was on. THE BEEF bets it has been sold or gotten " stolen ". Now, he's off to Mexico to " train " a boxer . . . what the fuck does he bring to the table as a trainer? All this shit and now he's dragging his kid into hiding . . . where the fuck is his son going to go to school in Mexico? A guy in his 50's who has told society to go fuck itself his whole life, no credit and no retirement built up . . . May GOD bless Max.

Why the fuck did they pay the $3000? THE BEEF would have told them to GO GET FUCKED.

So, why doesn't he post here?
I can't believed they ponied up $2000 for an event to be held in THEIR facility and then someone else - who put up HALF as much money - got the hallowed 'title sponsorship' and got to set the rules. LOL
They may be good guys, but won't be in business long if they keep that up...just sayin'. As someone who's put on strong(wo)man events before, I know how tough it can be when you're waiting for those final pledge checks to come in, but I've never had a venue owner pay me a dime. LOL
