I know he is your boy and all but even you who is a historian of everything bodybuilding has to think that ripping off not only the posing of Vince Taylor but also using the terminator term is, well...Bad...Really Bad...Yeah he made some money but at what cost?
In the world of stand up Comedy...That is an absolute no no(yeah i know, bodybuilding is not comedy)..But Just ask Carlos Mensteala about what Joe Rogan did to him...Robin Williams was almost knock the fck out for stealing peoples jokes..He would walk into comedy clubs all wired up and other comics would stop what they were doing and get off the stage...He was also known for writing 10,000 checks to people he stole material from out of guilt...Because he knew he was a thief...He even stated that he couldn't help it...He was addicted to the laugh...
I have all the respect for Kamali turning Pro for I understand that its a very rare thing and has a very small group of people that have ever turned pro...Also a reason i think Rhino is a total douche for calling himself a pro(and i know you agree with that)But the way Kamali has conducted himself as a pro is just awful...Its not like pro bodybuilding is the WWE...Vince tried that and failed...
I can appreciate what you're saying...but King has done nothing that many before him have done (including Vince T)....putting their own spin on something thats been done before.
No one is re-inventing the wheel at this point.....Russ Testo and Jon Brown were doing the "robot" and other similiar moves long before Vince was...
The "terminator", the "blond bomber", the "giant Killer", etc, etc....all imitated, but never duplicated.
Copying an exact routine? Definatly a no no...
