Tony, I'm in Melbourne in June. Will you punch me in the face if I come to your gym? I would like to get a thumbs up photo with you.

Bump

Also, I have about 15 quality photos of the 2001 NZ Grand Prix. How did you upload those old photos?

Also load up pre-judging photos of the 2001 Aussie Grand Prix, the first one.

Your choice, punch in the face or thumbs up photo. (Thumbs up photo includes a free workout)

Haha, I got a good run out of that bumbag and sold a lot of them as well.

Louie was incredible in his comeback year. Kovaks was huge but never had the quality or maturity of Louie.

Interestingly I got to interview Louie at last year's Olympia and I thought he would be a bit twisted and bitter about today's pros. He was quite the opposite.

He was in awe of Phil and Kai and is still a massive fan of the sport, he even paid me $20 to have a picture with him.

25 years in anything, let alone the gonzo lifting world is to be applauded, Tony. Best wishes for continued success.

I had Louie here about 10 weeks before his comeback show. He guest posed at 330lb, which was 70lb heavier than when he did Pumping Iron 17 years earlier.
He was without doubt the biggest guest poser we have ever had. We had 3 generations of fans came out to see him that weekend.

I then flew to Finland for the Mr O and took some great shots of him there. (Will find more and post them up.)

Attached,

1. Me interviewing Louie onstage back then. It was an incredible interview and something I will never forget.
2. A pic of a pic in my gym of Louie in his comeback Olympia.
3. Me interviewing Louie for Flexonline at last years Olympia.

That's awesome! to be right there and see the biggest comeback in BB history and Ferrigno at that super human size !

Thanks a lot for sharing !

WOOOSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHH
