Very true. But his waist outsizes everyone by a country mile as well. I thought favoritism towards big-bellied mass monsters was a thing of the past. Apparently not.

Yeah what a huge, disgusting, protruding stomach...  ::)

Went to Max Muscle Venice yesterday between prejudging of the NPC Tournament of Champions out here in Los Angeles.  Based on what we saw with the computer there, pretty much I had it Gustova, Hideatada, Alves and then Melvin Anthony. Most agreed with him.

Judging was right on at this contest.


Some people did have Jose Raymond over Flex Lewis though... but that also could of went either way.

OMG where are Troy's calves!? Gustavo's stomach looks fine to me, hes brought it in very well considering how he had let it go a couple years back.Legs are to small to do any damage at the O.

Calves don't count for shit in the IFBB... Dex won the O with 12 year old girls calves.

Melvin looks pretty damm good IMO
Better than Gustavo
I agree, based on the pics I have seen posted at various sites ( I was NOT at the contest however).
Gustavo is bigger, thicker and also looks impressive from the side and in a most muscular.
Plus, Gustavo has some impressive quads, hams and calfs .

Average height of a male in US is 5'9.

Gus is a clear winner good to see the IFBB getting it right as always.

Gus working now with Chad Nicholls has paid off for him.
He has 4 kids now. Better get those checks in to pay Chad and to raise his 4 kids.

First of all kudos on placing Melvin 4th.
But how does gustavo beat hide AND troy alves.
IMHO this was a battle between Hide and Troy, both were supremely conditoned and were the most complete onstage.
The judging SUCKED!

Poodle Poop! Gustavo had superior beef everywhere. Check out the side chest / hamstring combo ..unbelievable!

Bodybuilding is about BIG MEN not 5 foot dwarfs!

Yeah, "all guts".

Just a pity Gustavo can't slice his quad mass from the front. Side on / rear hams are unbeatable.

Its barely noticeable but the tip of his delt doesn't look right.  If I can see it, then the judges can see it

The miniscule tip of a right delt with "possible" synthol Vs the super gut and Exxon  arms of Gustavo


yep, I see the logic

Nobody that comes into a pro show without legs should win.  Unforunately, the judges at the '80 and '81 O didn't know this.  I would have given it to Troy, oil or no.  Everyone's using enough drugs, it's all an even playing field, we can start making delineations now.

The judges had a chance to set a new tone....a new frequency for what is considered a good body....

They chose to play it safe and pick a block-head with a block-body

Alves shouldnt' be penalised for being born with good genetics and Gustavo rewarded for predictable size over classic lines......Rubbish result.

Yes, close contest....but it would have made more sense to swing it Troy's way..........mickey mouse, rat-shit courage judging

Troy prob got dinged for those funky delts he was sporting.  Obviously either synthol or something else but they were angling the wrong way.


First side chest pose.  Barely noticeable but the delt has an unnatural angle

http://www.musculardevelopment.com/browse/index.php?mode=browse&id=1583&eventcode=1355&page=2


Its barely noticeable but the tip of his delt doesn't look right.  If I can see it, then the judges can see it


If it were there in the side chest, it would be there in the other shots posted of Alves doing the rear double biceps, as well as the arms overhead transition shot. But there is nothing there that I see. The rest of the board seems to agree in that they cannot see anything either.

Ron, I too, would have had  Jose over Flex in the under 202. But Flex did look sharp regardless of who won.
