I'm not "hating" anyone for getting exposure, I think it's great and I'm definatly not taking anything away from Peters hard work, your missing the point, what I've been seeing is that when people get ALOT of exposure, it's almost a sure win. You have guys out there who bust they're ass that come in better shape and because they don't have the "Exposure" they don't even get looked at........again, I never said it was Putnams fault nor will insinuate that, but fact is fact.

It's either you have to have the exposure or you have to pay your dues no matter how much better the other person might be and thats just not fair. It's not a matter of who's the best anymore.
thank you...well said.

I disagree. Sure exposure doesn't hurt but look at Justin Harris, he has had exposure and did he win? No. A couple years ago Fahkri came in ridiculous conditioning to USAs and turned pro, with no exposure before hand. Saying it's all exposure isn't entirely the case. Paying your dues is something you do at the library and saying that is what you have to do in bodybuilding is idiotic. If that were the case Ken Jones would be winning shows and Dave Palumbo should be pro, they both "paid their dues".

you just dont get,,  i look way better than peter, and beat him before, and  not in the condition i was in at that show..  i dont care if his wife did what ever she had to do to get him a pro card,, im say the show suck,, weather i got  33th place,, it suck,, for many others. because of a cover boy...
Oh, I get it. You placed 8th and should spend more time working on your training and conditioning than complaining online. Who cares if you beat him before, you didn't that night and to say you were better than him only makes you sound like a fool. Leave the man's wife out of it, she has nothing to do with you placing 8th. The only thing that sucks is your attitude and you wonder why you get no exposure.

She looked great, she is beautiful, of course he won his class because of her! Jeez, we may jest in that, but get real! Peter worked very hard, trained like crazy, dieting,  and looked great. People say he didnt have legs, wasnt complete, but on that day, he had the overall package.

You looked good, but honestly, when you look at the pics, realistically you were not in the top five.



Peter's legs look great here...

Work on your English and grammar in between your sets and reps. Good to hear you're in condition two weeks after the show.

Respect is respect. Appreciate you posting on the boards, even if English isnt your first language. 30% of the people on the boards who visit come from outside the USA, and people who only speak one language don't realize how hard it is sometimes to learn a second language. As long as you keep trying, that is the important part.  It is always important to learn to speak and write the language on the country in which you live in, no matter where you are.

That being said, there was a lot of talk that Peter should not have won his class. But also a lot said he said of.  He had the most complete and overall physique, but does that mean he has every bodypart won. Nope. Hence, even us writers and photographers have varying opinions in this matter.

Learn from the pics, speak to a few judges, and come back next year even better. Even Ronnie Coleman in his first Olympia placed 15th or so, same with Jay Cutler.

10 out of 11 judges gave Peter first place.  Nuff said!  There was no conspiracy.  Weider had nothing to do with it.  Get lives and quit hating on the guy.  He's a stand up dude, great competitor, and his good for the sport... not that anyone here cares though

PP was the better bodybuilder that day.  He got first because he deserved it.  Now where is that French judge?

Interesting that you don't say he has a better physique.  you say he's "good for the sport".

busted.

The fact that he got 10 out of 11 first place votes is the proof positive that the fix was in. Don't you know how this works man?
It's always 10 out of 11 when the fix is in. Always.

Good for the sport? What the hell is that supposed to mean?

A guy with no back and soft glutes and hams is good for the sport? A guy that was given a victory is good for the sport?

Another 5-5 guy that will never do anything in the pros is good for the sport?
