and how do you know Vince is not jumping ship.

Maybe because this is probably his last year and has nothing to gain, remember, he's 50 not 30!

 Another massive coup by Pro Division ::) First, the never-was Rhino, and now a fantastic, but past his prime legend ::)

Ron, first of all thank you for your comments they are correct, it should come from me. I have won the Nabba North America as well as 3rd in the Nabba world championships in greece. I have confirmation as well as written invitation that not only am I qualified,, but will be competing in the night of champions. The PDI recognizes other national titles as it should, with no alligience to the npc. I have also won, in the past many npc shows, though it does not matter. It is true though,, that I did not fair well in the two npc show I was in last year. I will make only this statement concerning that: I feel that my placing was off and it was not because of my pysique. I have seen too much non-sense in the npc, politics, and such. I should have easliy been qualified to move on, but due to certain other things happeneing around me, I was unable to. This not the first time this has happened to me but certainly is the last time. This is the reason I am going to the PDI. It is correct, I have nothing to lose. Other than my freindship with Gary Udit(who to me is just a class act) I am pretty much ashamed at how the npc is ran. I have watched, for years now, and kept a tight lip, but no longer, I am going to the PDI and win or lose,, will make my statement.


I beilive I am a good bodybuilder, as good as half the pros that stepped on weinbergers stage last years new york pro, I will train hard, and compete fiercely. other than  that I cannot control what happens.

I apreciate all the supprot I have gotten and contuinue to receive.

Jack London

NABBA is long established organization and I applaud you taking the leap. All the best, I hope the shows go and PDI makes it. I suspect some others who enevr made the conventional road to the IFBB pro ranks will join the PDI, to increase numbers as it is in the infancy.

I have known Jack London for a long time. He is a straight up guy! I have competed with him in several NABBA shows in the past.  I also saw him compete in the NPC Delaware in 05.  He always has time to say hello and will help anyone with bodybuilding. It will be very interesting to see PDI.  It should be all about the athletes.  I myself have seen first hand and like you who is reading this and also competes, it is not always about the best conditioned bodybuilder on stage that wins!  Some shows are political... which bodybuilder has friends on the judging panel, who has a contract with the biggest supplement company, which company gives the biggest sponsorship to the contest.  I have won shows that I deserved to win and lost shows that I deserved to win. And if or when I lost to a better bodybuilder, a more conditioned-bigger-symmetrical body, I am the first one to shake his hand and congratulate him.  But when I loose to a "name" or a "friend" of a judge or promoter, that just gives me more fire to train harder and better myself.  Sure I should of won, but complaining about it won't change the facts the winner has won even before the
pre-judging started!

Jack is a good bodybuilder, but those pictures just go to show why he doesn't have his pro card. In contest shape he's pretty small when lined up against real pros. A good work ethic, likable personality and offseason gym shots mean JACK SHIT when on stage. He will get OWNED at the NOC.

Thank you issac.

As far as the sites go, at this point-londonIsburning is my official website. Rob has done an unbelievalbe job on it in record time. He has come through on everything promised, I would recomend him to anyone.

There is no need to bash 240/ Issac, I put you on hold, so this is not a he is better than you thing, it was just timing, he was there,he talked the talk, but then wlked the walk. We did talk @ the arnold and issac does great work. Issac speaks the truth.

Good luck jack in your move to the new pro division and thanks to 240 for his support, I hope more pros move over so they can get the respect and PAY they deserve...

fuck the IFBB and NPC

He doesn't look so good there. How old is he? He might be dominant in his age group if he is 50 or older.

From what many have said, he looks like a new man this year after adding muscle the last 18 months.

one more thing, on MM London claimed that he got an MBA or something from Wharton . . . i'm sure someone could find it if they were so inclined.  why is that not listed among his achievements on his website?

Did he say Wharton or Warthogs? Because I went to Warthogs and don't remember anybody named London. Potter yes. London, no.

What years does he claim to have been there?

he didn't say . . . it was like what happened here in the Rhino290 thread. someone called him out on MM, and he came back with, I make $300,000 a year, I went to Wharton, I weigh 290, chicks love me, dudes love me, etc.

people who knew him IRL were posting on that thread and so I assumed he was telling the truth.

then his profile on londonisburning merely listed Temple . . . far cry from Penn.

Temple, Penn...same difference. Wharton, Warthogs...same difference. $300,000, $30,000...same difference. Chicks, dudes...same difference. IFBB, PDI...same difference.

I agree, bad pics. 8 week of dieting, and this was my first show after a 7 year layoff. 2 years later now, all I"m gonna say is, things are much different. I am 290 right now. But I agree, I look terrible in these pics, but, but, they do my current physique no justice, nah sayers beware! I would not be putting it out there if I was not confident, you saw some pics from last year, precontest, now, i have grown even more, hitting my peak, with muscle maturity. remember how ronnie changed, well I am hitting my peak like this.

get ready for a whole new package....

My apologies...I meant Hogwarts, not Warthogs. I'm sorry if I offended any wizards or mudbloods on the board.
