Troy Alves is looking great - he is going to qualify for the O and leave the others in the dust!

he looks outstanding

Troy, I need tix to the Niners vs NO or Niners Vs. Baltimore. PM ME.

busyB · « **Reply #3 on:** September 07, 2007, 06:16:53 PM »

He waited this long to compete this year because he said he wanted to go into the O with a win. He was HUGE in the offseason so lets see if the added size will result in his wish!

41 years old and at his lifetime best.

Um, that is ticketmaster, not Troy Alves. You do know he lives in Arizona?!

I am glad to see Troy back in shape. He should do well and qualify.

pumpher · « **Reply #9 on:** September 07, 2007, 06:29:27 PM »

He looks great from the front and should do well.

Any back shots? I think his weakness has been smooth hams and lower back.

I would say his hamstrings and glutes are usually soft but he has displayed hardness in that area at some shows so I think he will do so again at the Olympia if he peaks properly.

Troy's always been under rated. They had him just above Dave Henry at last years O WTF with that, He looked better than a few that placed ahead of him. He's just not a judge favorite. From the recent photo's it looks like he could win tomorrow, top 5 for sure.

MattT · « **Reply #12 on:** September 07, 2007, 06:54:13 PM »

lets see troys hams and glutes then will see if he'll qualify.

Actually we have Dorian, and Ronnie starting winning with a more aesthetically pleasing physique than Dorian ever had. If you want to judge bodybuilding on shape alone, Troy probably would win. In reality, contests are judged based on a number of factors not just limited to shape.

Looks absolutely perfect from the front. If his glutes and hams are as ripped like the front them he will be screwed if he doesn't get the Olympia nod. Definitely can break the Top 10 at the Olympia as he should have last year.

Why judge him on one-two bodyparts and take away from the rest of his physique? Yes, I agree they have been soft and hurts his placings but this is the Montreal and Atlantic City shows, not Arnold or New York...kinda hard not to qualify at these small shows. He has qualified EVERY year he has been pro, so bet on it again.

hams and glutes are his weak point
I hope him has improved it

bigdumbbell · « **Reply #18 on:** September 07, 2007, 08:35:27 PM »

i am a fan of his i admit it

Danny · « **Reply #19 on:** September 07, 2007, 08:41:29 PM »

It would not be a surprise to me if he actually beats Cormier and wins the show. He looks sharp and full...

He's top heavy, very little sweep to the quads and he's way too smooth in the glutes and hammies. Otherwise, he looks great. Top 15 definately.

Troy you know you're my boy but like I've said a million times before............You live in the freaking Desert, GET A DAMN TAN!

Oh and ah, Good luck!

Hahahahahahaaaa! Troy never wins if there is JJ and Cormier in competition. On other thread there was pics of JJ; looked rock hard and way better than Troy!

he looks awesome, damn...look at the deep cuts across the chest.

flexingtonsteele · « **Reply #24 on:** September 08, 2007, 01:14:04 AM »

Best he's ever looked! He'll be fighting with johnny and chris for the top spot.
