I placed 6th in the under 202 class in Tampa I was happy with my condition but to tell the truth I didn't understand the placings so I was disappointed. And one week later I placed 11th in Dallas (Europa Super Show). In the Open I didn't make the top15 in Tampa and I placed 15th in Dallas.

But now I'm looking forward and try to be much better in 2009. And hopefully I'll earn better placings too.

Here're some pics and videos...

I dunno who beat you bro, but you should be top 3 in ANY 202 & under line up!! SERIOUSLY

I don't know how you didn't place better. You looked great! But, then again, we know this sport is political and not always objective. Good luck next year!

Fantastic conditioning.

When you think Labrada was 2 in the world a few years back, you should have walked the WHOLE show

The competition side of the sports sucks...

Ive been in this game a long time and the show should have been between you and Henry. You edge him on symmetry and aesthetics and seem equal on everything else. You were shafted.

I congratulate you on your attitude though. Good luck next year but DON'T go for MASS MASS MASS

Anyway I just wanted the 5th place in Tampa to qualify to the 202 Showdown at the Olympia...but the judges didn't give me the chance... $:-\$

But now I'm already looking forward to 2009...
