Have you ever heard the saying,”If he didn’t have bad luck, he’d have no luck at all.”? It seems like that saying was specifically written for IFBB Pro Victor Martinez. Today, I was able to confirm that the former Arnold Classic Champion was seriously injured during a photo shoot in Mexico.

Multiple reliable sources have told me that Victor was in the middle of a "make-believe" arm wrestling match when his opponent thought it would be humorous to spontaneously slam Victor’s arm down; winning the match. That slam resulted in three serious breaks in Victor’s arm.

I won’t detail all of Victor’s previous misfortunes, but many of the people I have talked to think that this may be the final straw on Vic’s bodybuilding career. Personally, I doubt that. We just watched Victor transform from a skinny prisoner to a 270lb monster within a matter of weeks... And we saw Branch Warren go from a torn quad to the Arnold Classic Champion in a matter of months. I’m betting Victor overcomes adversity AGAIN, and we see him back on stage in 2013.

Arm wrestling injury = I really cant afford gear to compete so I am just going to make up a story.

how can you call yourself an athlete, if one time arm-wrestling broke three parts of your arm?

Did he armwrestle Chuck Norris?

bigmikecox · « **Reply #13 on:** September 14, 2012, 10:13:13 AM »

NO WAY HE IS READY FOR THE ARNOLD! Not happening. If i was Victor, I would not leave NY. Just eat, sleep and train. MHP and MD are paying him well. Stay home and train

snx · « **Reply #14 on:** September 14, 2012, 10:16:52 AM »

Yes, I'm sure that's what it was. He flew all the way to Mexico to arm-wrestle people at a tradeshow.

Forgive me, but is he even allowed to leave the country? Let's say he is...

Anyone buying the cover story?

Sure it's not a few shylocks ensuring Vic makes good a few benjamins he owes to a higher up?

Exactly my thoughts.

hoping it was branch instead of vicky

It was a photo shoot, so there are pics and videos from the incident.....

I doubt they will let that "go viral' online...the worst publicity for pro bb and supps.

Bbers always get injured in the weirdest ways. broken arm during a photo shoot.

Absolute bullshit.
Who goes all out for a photo shoot?
I bet Jean Pierre Foox was Vic's motivational coach.

Fux, Orville Burke. Chris Lund was notorious for "real" shots.

That should be an easy law suit to win lol.

Apparently Vic was at a convention in Mexico, and someone wanted to take a pic with him looking like they armwrestled. The rest as they say is history...
