Post by: noworries on July 18, 2010, 01:54:18 PM: I don't won't to get all pissy about the prize money but that is a huge embarrassment to the IFBB. No wonder the general public and the real sports media and regular media doesn't acknowledge bodybuilding. They (the IFBB) don't respect themselves enough, why would anyone else. Wow, you wonder why anyone would want to be a pro bodybuilder. It is far from being prestigious. What BB's should do is just compete in the amatuer level and keep a real job and make real money and not blow most of it on drugs.
