Nope, it's legit. Jack London is the first athlete to publicly announce his entrance into Wayne DeMilia's Pro Division.

He won his class at a National Contest. He's 5'9" at contest weight of 255.

290 offseason. He's doing the Night of Champions.

Not the smartest idea to use copyrighted music on that website. Though if it were picked up you would probably just receive a friendly cease and desist from their lawyers so all good.

That guy has nothing to lose by switching to the pro division.

EDIT: And hah, what do you know he says those exact words at the front of the site. I have nothing to lose.

Dude's super-successful in the finance field. Does BBing for fun, so he's not a starving dependent on the nipple of the IFBB like ~~Chick~~ so many others.

Well, he is not an IFBB pro.

240/Jack - I see he is doing the NOC...Is it the pro qualifier segment or will pro status be granted prior?

I hear Pelletier is going to join now that the IFBB won't let him compete anymore.

The rules of the Pro Division say he doesn't have to wait til he's 35 to win the NPC USA

Jack London got 1st in his class at a National qualifier not the NPC.

And when Pelletier earns more at the Night of Champions than Melvin wins at the Olympia, the "PDI" word might be coming up a lot at the Anthony household.

No offense, but he wasn't even able to place top two in an NPC national qualifier last year, meaning he wasn't even eligible to try to turn pro, or compete in any of the National contests (USA, Nationals, North American).

Stop trying to be rational, this guy is a major coup. He could be the star of Pro Division

Actually, even after talking all his smack, Bob Chick will join the Pro Division so he doesn't have to face Vince Taylor.

He would be the biggest traitor since Benedict Arnold

Apparently this is an IFBB-only message board

I'm pretty sure Chick used his pull with Ron to get the thread deleted. They also deleted my Pro Division thread.

Strange. I asked Ron's permission and advice on the PDI situation. He declared GetBig as a neutral area.

Bob Chick or anyone else has no right to delete stuff about the pro division.

in his website it says he won the north american

240 is Back · « **Reply #19 on:** March 24, 2006, 09:22:50 PM »

what do you know, the thread is back!!

Ron · « **Reply #20 on:** March 24, 2006, 09:29:06 PM »

I hae no problems with reports on what is going on with the Pro Division, if it is newsworthy. The problem was that this thread was hijacked with baseless attacks. Now, if Jack London has intentions to compete in the Night of Champions as a Pro Division athlete, that is great for him.

But there needs to be confirmation about this.

If he is a Pro Division athlete, does he have a card that says this? Or did he announce it? How is he going to qualify? Is he qualified? And how is he already a pro?

P.S. As for the cool posts that say he deleted this and he deleted that, what the hell does that have to do with this topic? Duh - you wonder why it gets deleted. When you see something like that, you email me or you use the Comments for Ron & Admin board.

Ron · « **Reply #21 on:** March 24, 2006, 09:33:59 PM »

Great. Rob linked it to one of his websites, which he created on March 23rd. He owns that name. Like he owns the Prodivisionbodybuilding name, which has nothing to do with that organization. Are you trying to sell that one too soon. The problem is - we dont know if you are just selling a name here or providing information that is newsworth yet.

While the information may be legitimate, just announcing it means nothing. It would of been more legitimate if it come from a website that Jack London owned.

Doesn't this defeat the purpose of your "Gossip and Opinions" board? This whole board is gossip and speculation - why do we need "confirmation about this"?

All legit. I can't speak for Jack London, as I can't speak for anyone but myself. I can say he's a hell of an intelligent and driven guy, and will represent the sport well as a financial guru who bodybuilds because he loves it, not because he has to.

I was brought on board this week to create and promote a web presence for the first athlete announcing his jump to the Pro Division, Jack London. In the past 3 days, I have grown this idea into a new website, www.londonisburning.com, convinced thousands of people to visit his site and discuss the move, and hopefully, branded his name into the prospects' minds.

The goal? When people think of Pro Division Bodybuilding, they'll think of Jack London as the FIRST GUY who jumped to the division.

Time will tell if this was a success... but it sure was fun

I handled all the backend stuff, but it is all the property of the client, as it always is with my web design services. Mr London will speak when he's ready to, but you can contact him for verification, or for information on Appearances. After B7, FreeTitus, ProDiv, LondonIsBurning and my many client sites, my goofing/owning website days are over. If I build it, it has a specific client purpose. All legit, all discreet. -Rob
