Way too many people ripping Flex apart on here. Yes...I agree...that I think it is very risky to undertake competing again for Flex. But...I was around Golds Venice in 92 and throughout the rest of his career. I do not believe there is any oil in the body you are currently seeing on him. I knew Flex somewhat...spoke with him many many times. He is not a stupid guy. Yes...he has done stupid things..risky things...but so do most current bodybuilders. Flex has crazy genetics, crazy insertions, crazy small joints, amazing structure. If any of you had ever seen Flex in person those days, especially around the time tgat he was training after his accident...you would have seen a version of Flex that looked like what you see now. As for him possibly taking diuretics for this show....I truly believe that he wont. Plus...diuretics are not 100% needed. I knew tons of guys who came in dry as shit that swore off diuretics after a bad stint. They are not needed. Tons of guys pull it off. I think he may be playing it smart. As smart as one can...considering he is competing. I think he will look really good. Way better than Levrone...who actually is sonewhat retarted in life. I think Flex is out to make tge best of what he has got right now. It is a personal achievement and the Classic division gives him a nice avenue to compete again. Fuck all the haters. I think many will be suprised. And if anybody here truly knew Flex even a bit...they would know that he wouldnt bother showing up onstage if he looked like shit or like Levrone did.
