Ask George if he thinks the bullet wounds on his stomach have hurt his placings Or if he thinks that they helped him because the judges respect what he went through to get this far

[Method101]

PBW sucks these days. It was better when they have the old legends coming on telling stories etc.

One shouldn't have anything to do with the other...it's a physique contest. No one gets to submit their "story" for consideration of points

5th place in the Pittsburgh 2020lbs and under, with Jason Arntz and Ahmad Ahmad placing ahead of George.

7th place in the Orlando Pro (Europa Show of Champions) with Federic Sauvage, and Paco Bautista placing ahread of George.

So the question is --> were you dissapointed in your placings at these shows? Did you feel that they were justified when you were at the show? Did you feel that they were correct after you come home and took a look at the comparison pictures?

Where do you go from here? Is this the best you can do? Are you competing to be in the top or just competing for yourself to prove that you can still do it?  Are you happy with your physique that you bring on to the stage or did you need more time for contest prep? 

As you are getting older, what changes do you need to do to get in contest shape?
 

[Armstrong]

Farah!  Holy shit, that guy loves to talk shit.  Ask him if he deserves credit for getting Branch Warren in shape for the Arnold.  Dennis James gave George credit for teaching him high carb contest prep.

agreed......we need more of franco, sergio, samir, louie and serge!!!!

[MethodGNA]

wow, George Farah...the interview...no wonder there was no show this week. material this deep in nature would obviously require 2 weeeks of preparation time...you know for 45 mins. worth of actual show.

and please, please....more MMA content,,,lets jump on the bandwagon. the best descision-when you are doing a BODYBUILDING radio show for 3/4 hr. every other week, is to dilute it further with news/interviews from and entire un-related sport....surely there is currently not enough internet programs dealing with mixed martial arts now-a-days.

Hany Rambod calls himself the Pro Creator.  George calls himself the "Pro Maker".   Ummmmmmm, whats the difference? 

[Ex Coelis]

I'm excited to see how Branch looks at the Olympia under Farah's prep

[Armstrong]

Hany Rambod calls himself the Pro Creator.  George calls himself the "Pro Maker".   Ummmmmmm, whats the difference? 

Does George really call himself that?  What pros did he "make"?

Eric Fromm

Guy is dead not a real good way to promote your advices.

[240 is Back]

Bob talking about his days on the police force.

Sounds like he would have let Ronnie go.

[BIG DUB]

of course, those fucking douchebags all stick together

that was one sobering interview.  I had to listen to the part where he detailed the shooting a few times.  A real life and death moment... taking a life and almost losing his... graphic details of the bullet wounds... Farah delivered like no one else has... incredible details on what he's been through.
