I think it's great to see Strydom compete again, he's a large man with nice lines, tight belly, and was always in great condition.
I had Gary and Shawn on the phone at the same time, and naturally Shawn is happy about the news. Question is, how does Darrem Charles, Phil Heath, Vince Taylor and the rest of the guys feel about Big Gary's return
