saw him guest pose 3 years ago, guy is timeless. looked fantastic and better than the likes of Roelly, Branch and the other pro's competing at the show.
only Flex lewis had the same aesthetic appeal, everyone in the crowd was more impressed with Benfatto than the actual competitors

Great physique but his waist wasn't close to the size of his arms.
He may have had legit 19" arms with a 30" waist.

His waist is a lot bigger now but he still looks great, sans pec.

John Brown's pec tear looked way worst IMO. Benfatto still looks great, must be the all-valium diet.  :-X

i've got the exact same pec tear, Levrone's i think was a full rupture at the tendon so a straight forward re-attachment  and wasn't badly deforming, similar to Freeman's.
but Benfatto's was at the musculo-tendon juntion same as mine, no way to hide the deformity. pec bunches up and surgery is complicated.

worst i've seen on stage is Federov but he's always relied on his sheer mass, Benfatto all about symmetry and aesthetics so its a shame he suffered one.

You see this with many competitors, including myself, they look smooth during their first (or first couple of) show(s); they have that smooth look.

AFAIK, the '90 mr 'O was the only drug tested mr 'o, correct? Joe was pretty delusional when he thought that drug testing would be the key to acceptance by the Olympic Committee

The Weider bros were pretty dominant for a long time. These days, almost no one becomes rich in 'the industry', and even when they do, they will lose it on the long run...
