I know Gustavo reallly well he trains at my gym.We talk all the time, he is a really nice down to earth guy.Cocky he is not, hungry is what he is.Gustavo is very humble, and will talk to anybody, he is polite and courteous to everybody.Gustavo told me last week, I am hungry, I want to be the best, alot of people doubt me but I placed 3rd in the O to years in a row.I am going to win because winning is in my blood, I am hungrier then these guys, I want it more then them.Every year I am going to get better and better you watch.

I remember reading an article about how Sergio challenged Arnold to a posedown and Arnold declined. Smart move! Franco went up though and got annihilated on stage!  ;D

Not even Cutler was making those claims to Coleman, and he's achieved twice as much in as Gustavo ever will.

it's because Jay was busy laughing at Gustavo

Gustavo has mastered the art of sucking in the GH gut. 

Gustavo  talking about his physique: "100% natural, hard work ..that's all" 

- what a douchebag.

Gustavo is the most overrated bb of all-time. I think his physique sucks compared with the top pros of this era. He should NEVER beat Dex for example. how the hell did he beat him at the 2004 O?

Ok dont then --- no ones forceing you to , but its true dude !!!

I was in Golds Vegas 2 days after the Olympia , me and Lee went in for a workout, and Darrem,Dave Henery,Branch and Johnny and Gustavo where all in there doing photo shots for various publications.
During photo shoots there is alot of down time as they adjust lighting etc, during this down time me,lee,darrem,dave,branch and johnny discussed the olympia and various topics and generaly did the mutual admiration thing !!! ----- the only guy who never said one word to any of us was, well you gussed it Gustavo !!!

Maybe he was to focused on his photo shoot to give any one the light of day, now thats dedication , or arogance !!

You decide !!!

Oh I have no problems with his physique, I have stated a few times on this board that I thought with more comparisons at the O he could have possibly taking Jay , I mean look what happened in the challenge round (even though it was a bit of a joke )

but we are talking about his attitude and what I have wittnessed first hand is the observations I am relaying !!!

well ok i guess i can see you seeing it as arrogance, but just because he didn't say anything doesn't mean he was being arrogant...there is many reasons why didn't talk...and not wanting to is a perfectly legit reason.

The thing that nobody talks about the challenge round is that there were different judges! Some freaking change from the SAME judges that made Haney Mr. O. Not that I don't think the Judges are doing a fine job given the rules they are, but look, different judges, poof, coleman loses

yea they had the past Olympia winners judging, really I thought it was great idea, but very poorly managed. They had a lot of trouble getting the votes in for some reason. You had guys like Dorian who probably chose Ronnie due to the mass, but then guys like Zane would probably went with Gutsavo for the more aesthetic look (well, aesethic as you can get between coleman and gustave lol)

Gustavo has a right to be "cocky".

If you were him you would be too......

He's on the rise, whereas most of these guys are plateauing (Cutler, Ronnie).

Ronnie doesn't have many years left, whether he wants to believe that or not.

They will probably politely ask him to retire, failing that he will be beaten......

I see Badell or Martinez as the frontrunners right now....

Cutler might win one Sandow, the one right after Ronnie retires.........as a charity win before he retires too.....

Politics do make things go round and if you don't believe that, look back at Arnold in '80 and Ronnie in '01.
