Chad's a cad, and Priest, whom I like, is venting because he's always had a bone to pick with Shawn.
Fact is, Dialysis McKidnyeyfailure looks like relative shit. Big dude, damn right. And some impressive body parts. However, like so many today, his physique looks slapped together and without flow.
Shawn Ray made very modest improvements over his dozen-or-so years as an active pro competitor, true, but they were difficult-to-acquire attributes of honing and polishing. He understood his aesthetics and how best to capitalize on his unique gifts.
Like I say, Shawn is twice the bodybuilder Dialysis is.
And for the record, when I was in the industry, I never had any issue with the man. He conducted himself as a professional yet never took shit from anyone. The man speaks his mind and is one of the most knowledgeable when it comes to measured training and oldschool contest prep.
Ray is extremely disciplined and intelligent.
McKidneyfailure is oversensitive to criticism. In his day, Shawn took a lot of flack yet never appeared butthurt for it. Any counter comments were thoughtful and insightful.
Shawn Ray is one of the greatest of all time.
