But you don't mean that in a bad way, right?

Oh no, not at all  ;)

He was 1 man away from a pro card in 1 show and that was Toney Freeman ( a man who has seen the Olympia stage many times) so I think he could have but lost the drive after that particular show.

He prob. earns more money than 80 % of all "IFBB Pro Card Holders". So i would say heīs a pro, because Bodybuilding is the job from he getīs the money to pay his bills.

Being a pro bodybuilder has nothing to do with winning shows.
The only thing that matters is winning schmoes.

So how did his cock taste?

First favor was an introduction to an old timer friend of mine, former WO partner of Arnold's. I 'was' to be included in that interview. Might have helped for some PR just prior to my Nationals.

Second favor was me to gift him a case of my own brand BB t shirts he "just had to have...they are so cool". I was to get an exclusive interview....obviously never happened. Twice burned.

OK Grim....happy camper now?

And on the opposite side we had the iron bull.

My favourite part is the deadlifting. ;D
Comedy gold.

must be brutal screaming at cats about their capability to hang with a 300lb bodybuilder, only to end up a 160lb broken shitstain selling snake oil, desperately seeking out charlatans to heal a set of failing kidneys.
You realise you are hurting his feelings right?

A lot of pro bodybuilders' finances are shaky at best.

Even Shawn Ray...a bodybuilding pro...had more than one insurance policy lapse due to non-payment.
