No, my first sentence DOESN'T sum it up..
I asked and posed several questions, I am curious and I don't appreciate a snide answer. What is it exactly that KEEPS someone on suspension after suspension has been fulfilled,,,,and what would any IFBB pro do to deserve treatment likethis?? If a corporation wants an employee not to speak their mind and gives them a warning, it isn't a career death decision deserving of a lifetime sentence. I believe the IFBB came him a year suspension. What keeps it ongoing? Lest I become off track, please answer my LONGGG post and even if you've said it a few times, please tell us again, inquiring minds want to know if any top ranking NPC competitor should even aspire to be IFBB. A Query Worth Answering!!
I respectfully disagree..."Am I wrong"? was your first sentence...yes, you are wrong with literally everything you wrote (assumed) after that.
Nothing keeps a athlete suspended after they are out of the IFBB...you can only be suspended as an active pro with status in the federation.
He requested reinstatement, was offered a reduced suspension, and subsequently refused the offer to come back.
He then requested reinstatement after the initial suspension was fulfilled, his request was denied at that time by committee vote.
To answer your last question...Should a top ranked NPC Amateur aspire to be in the IFBB? Well, if they're a TOP RANKED NPC amateur...then obviously they DO aspire to be in the IFBB. For those looking to make money in their chosen sport, make money with guest posing, appearances, seminars, have opportunities and doors opened up to them from supplement companies, gain exposure through the magazines, etc....then there is nowhere better to do it than the IFB....JUST LIKE LEE DID.
