Santo Domingo.– IFBB professional bodybuilder Victor Martinez has been implicated in a new steroid scandal exactly two weeks prior to the 2009 Arnold Classic. News reports have surfaced during the Alex Rodriguez steroid investigation implicating Martinez in the sale of anabolic steroids in the Dominican Republic, the website mesomorphosis.com revealed.
After learning that A-Rod’s preferred steroid Primobolan was not legally available in Dominican Republic pharmacies, reporters searched for other sources of steroids in the country that included gyms and supplement stores.
According to the New York Daily News, Victor Martinez owns a supplement store in Santo Domingo called “Gurabo” that allegedly sells anabolic steroids, where anyone can walk in and purchase steroids, protein powders and supplements.
Martinez previously won the 2007 Arnold Classic, but Arnold Schwarzenegger may not be too happy if the “Dominican Dominator” wins again this year and may decide to skip the trophy presentation altogether.
That time Scharzenegger was embarrassed when he was placed in a position where he presented Martinez with the winner’s trophy and $130,000 first place check only days after Martinez was identified as an unindicted co-conspirator in the nationwide internet pharmacy steroid investigation by the Albany County District Attorney’s Office.
