Exactly, anyone saying anything else is delusional. Sami, Frey, Lee even Jabes and that queer St.Cloud all look good, but as you said there is no comparison between the PDI and IFBB quality. Also, the PDI bottom tier guys are worse than the bottom tier at Nationals, let alone the real pro ranks.
Bottom tier guys in the PDI, like London, would they even qualify to compete at the Nationals?
Sean "Camel Mouth" Allan, who took 16th or so at the Nationals a few years ago, is one of the better PDI pro's.
That's pretty telling.
Sami and Lee are great BB's. But that says jack shit about the average quality.
