Erik Fankhouser and James "Flex" Lewis will both be making their pro debuts at the 2008 IFBB Europa show.
Frankhouser has a fresh physique that might land him in the top 12. Lewis is too short to make an impact
This tread is worthless without pictures!
Fankhauser
i still dont know how frankenhouser won his pro card.. he does look good but i dont think he is pro material, there are a number of other amatures which i think deserve to get it before him, i doubt he will do any damage at least not in the first couple of years.. he needs to work on his back a hell of a lot more, and is it just me or do his arms look a bit weird
Shorter than a 5' 6'' Dexter Jackson?
Flex is an inch shorter than the 5'6 and 1/2 Dexter. A person at that height is tall enough to still do very well in bodybuilding, although there would be some limits (top four at the Olympia for instance, would be about as well as someone of that height would like do).To win the Mr. Olympia, 5'9-5'11.
Arms seem ok to me. There probably his best bodypart, besides his calves. I also don't really know how he got his pro card, lower body is good (though calves are way too big), but his upper body (minus the arms) is unimpressive (at least when compared to other pros). He may improve as time goes on, but right now it seems he doesn't really have much of a chance.Reviewing what i already said, i think Flex will place ahead of Fankhouser.
Flex needs to get to the same size as Dexter and Shawn Ray Big Will Harris in order to place well in shows.
