Is Victor Martinez considered a "legend" in the sport of bodybuilding? The bodybuilding show that he is representing is called "Legends." Or is he just a "legend" in his own mind? It will take place on August 22nd in NYC (Lehman College).

From July 25th to today, hes made about 22-25 posts about this "legends" competition. Why does he so desperately need people to attend?

Not sure if he was a legend but was pretty damn good. Genetically gifted shape and response to drugs. Too bad he couldn't keep his criminal behavior in check or else he could have accomplished a lot more. Maybe even been mr olympia.

He's was an uncrowned Mr Olympia in an extremely weak line-up in 2007, you gotta give him that. Legend? No...

He had good genetics, just could never dial it in for a lot of reasons.

A legend is defined:

an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field.

The question is: Does Vic classify as extremely famous or notorious in the bbing industry?

These are the deep questions we ponder as getbiggers.

Using tons of gear and never winning jack doesn't constitute you as a legend Vic.

2007 uncrowned mr. Olympia ....in 30 years from now he could be considered a legend just as much as Mike Mentzer is now.

WooOSSHHHHHHHHHH

I love how humble these guys are. He's not a legend. Not yet. Dexter is a legend. Ronnie is a legend. Arnold is a legend. Not Victor.

No, not a legend. Very good though. Could have been but it was not to be.

Should have called it the "Ex-Con Classic".

Actually I'm not even sure if he was robbed in 2007, Jay was very bad that year but still crushed him in terms of size and thickness.

I means srsly, that's like a different weight class...

Jay is definitely taking him from the back.

Good move, pushing out his biceps and covering his man tits in one.

Ronnie Coleman is a legend because of his bodybuilding prowess.

Craig Titus is a legend because of his criminal behavior.

Unfortunately for Victor Martinez, his degree of both bodybuilding and criminality are both too mediocre to be considered legendary. He is, by all accounts, quite forgettable even now in a time where he could be relevant.
