Pastel was a great BB
extremely overlooked and underrated and never given his just placings
should ahve won quite a few pro shows
Like Nasser explained, if you are not an NPC american BB or a foreigner, it is just so much harder to get a just placing.
By that logic shouldn't Yates or Schwarzenegger considered foreign as well?
Nasser and many others were sponsored by weider and were living in the US. If the Weiders were so focused on letting the US dominate bodybuilding why bother spending millions sponsoring "foreigners" and setting them up only to screw them over in competition? If there was such a bias towards these "foreigners" how did nasser win the NOC and AC?
Lets dispense with nassers whining. The man has every excuse in the book for all his shortcomings.
It's always someone else's fault not his.....his wife, the judges, 9/11,dorian yates....the list goes on.
Determined people will inevitably succeed no matter what obstacles are placed in front of them. Arnold could have just as easily changed his name to sound more american but he didn't. He blazed his own trail and achieved everything he set out to do. People like nasser falter and then try to blame everyone else for their failures.
