About time Ronny Rockel gets his just due's. If he nails his conditioning and improves his posing ability, top 5.

The best lighting of any BB show is @ the Ironman..Pro's that enter the show do so to get some shots for quality 8x10's

Hopefully Dugdale will place top three.

I think Ahmed Haider will most probably look the best of them but I am not quite sure that they will let him win it

Silvio with "08 Olympia showing" will most probably take it.

I am interested to see Mohammad Bannout as this is his Pro debut.

Why is Don Long being allowed to compete? Is he on a suicide mission?

This is pro bbing. It could be argued that ALL of the competitors are on suicide missions.

I trhink that "best lighting" hurts some of these guys thinking they are so far ahead of schedule for the poorly lit ASC!!!!! The lights in Columbus can make Eddie Ebbew look whiter than Michael Jackson
