Ron, is this what you do for a living, or is it a hobby?

Wow..

Men's IFBB Pro shows have been dwindling down in numbers ever since the "brilliant" inception of the new points system (which was copied by the way from other sports, and IS without a doubt suited for sports other than bodybuilding).

Wonder if this has anything to do with the new "o" Qualification point system?

akers1021 · « **Reply #7 on:** July 01, 2012, 02:43:41 PM »

Fankhouser should take that..atoyan and deckard 2-3....i see ad cherry is in that lineup...he should place top 5 but he is always as smooth as vince..

Has to be, it is almost as if the pros are competing less, To make top 3 is what used bring in heavy competition cause almost all the pros believe they can make top 3

That is one shitty lineup!

frankenhouser should take this show.

vascsurgeon · « **Reply #13 on:** July 02, 2012, 07:51:36 AM »

Just wondering, what is the first place prize?

MB · « **Reply #14 on:** July 02, 2012, 07:57:45 AM »

Ridiculously poor line-up. Pro qualifying is watered down so much that men's bodybuilding is starting to look like figure and bikini. Every show is a list of unrecognizable names.

Mate · « **Reply #15 on:** July 02, 2012, 09:48:27 AM »

What about the new york pro? Used to be one of the best shows, right after the Arnold, and this past May there were only..what??..11 guys competing!! The Hartford show this past weekend had no attendance in the audience and again a very small line-up of 13 guys. The earlier 212 shows of the year had 4 and 5 competitors! The IFBB men's is becoming a joke, it's simply not worth the $40 and $50 ticket price tag anymore for small shows and certainly not worth the $100+ for the bigger shows.

On the other hand the bikini and figure shows have 20+ competitor's in each category but they do not draw the crowd in the same way pro bodybuilding does. There's no excitement with these women's categories for anyone.

can ya say you won a pro show if no one else was in it? Bodybuilding is dead

Yep, people around the globe holding their breath for that Kotze/Lomeli callout.

There was a Pro show in Toronto recently, or maybe it was Phoenix, that was worse.

This line-up is proof that there was never a need to have an Olympia qualifying points system. If you can't enter and win this scrub show, you shouldn't be anywhere near an Olympia stage.
