I leave the proving yourself to people that have something to prove. I don't have the best build on this site, and I'm fine with that. If i ever were to compete, first off I would have done it years ago and not went up against guys 15 years younger than me.. and it would be on stage in a real BBing contest.
These internet contests are fun and great motivation..but they are bullshit. Unless you get two people side by side in the same picture, you can't truly get a sense of who's more developed. Not to pick on you...but you are not a big guy. You look good standing by yourself under careful lighting, in a carefully constructed pose. You took 25 pictures and used the best one ( I do it too)....but put you right next to a 225 pound guy, under the same lights...same exact distance from the camera, who is ALSO in shape, and you would disappear. Nobody really acknowledges this, but it's a fact.
respect for that forthright answer
yes, i'm not a big guy and i never will be
but a serious question here... do you think that Zane looked better @ 187 or @ 202
he was roughly 87 in the '77 '78 '79 '80 mr. o's
but in '82 he sized up to over 2 bills and IMHO he looked better @ 87 than he did at 2 bills
