Can someone explain this legendary IFBB hoodwink/bamboozle
« on: September 05, 2009, 04:30:50 PM »
Mr. Olympia 2001....


Despite who you feel should have won it's the way in which it was carried out.

Jay is ahead after prejudging and the night show.  It is said that Ronnie came back during the pose down, a part of the show that isn't judged....

Soon after the show in which Jay is screwed the IFBB tries to stick it too him by dqing him for diuretics  Why would the IFBB do this you ask?  Because there was too much being made of Jay getting screwed and by dqing him it makes that arguement irrelevant. 

Jay gets smart and lawyers up and the IFBB drops the DQ fearing mass negative publicity and decides to cut their losses.

OUTED..IFBB FAIL :-X

There's nothing they can say to cover it up. Sometimes in life, things make sense because they just make sense.

I don't buy fixed contests at all , I think Jay was much sharper at the prejudging and won it fair and square Ronnie tighten up at the night show and was sharp enough to edge Jay out slightly

no conspiracy needed Jay could have won and not many would argue but he didn't

9 times out of 10 the contest was won in the prejudging it was the meat & potatoes of the judging , most of the contest placings were decided there ..but in rare circumstances the night show could determine a contest , especially if it was a close one Jay looked good at the prejudging and won rightfully and Ronnie tightened up at the evening show enough to impress the judges and eek out a close one. no conspiracy needed .
