IFBB suspends the NPC - discussion and updates
« on: September 16, 2017, 01:13:56 PM »
Well it's about over and all sorts of new and welcomed stuff has happened ..... but the big verbal "bomb" will be dropped tonite and should prove to be a major topic of conversation on this here GetBig Board ocne it's all said and done.

So, "Stand by to stand by and make sure your brass is bright and shiny for what's supposed to be an unexpected announcement this evening at the finals!"

So with that so aptly stated .... The Amateur Olympia was a major success with a vast majority of foreign (non-USA) competitors in each and every line-up .... Mexico, Brazil, and a large number of worthwhile contenders flying up from South America and some regions of this planet I never even knew existed.

This was the first Amateur Olympia event ever held within the USA and it surely will continue to be a success in the years to come.

This proves that all things bodybuilding-related are growing by leaps and "pounds" throughout this big blue planet. And i do realize that that will be depressing news to some Getbiggers cause it sure ain't dead ... so send no flowers nor condolences!

And those who really do hate this game just might suffer more serious depression after tonite's announcement!

No photos to include here yet but if any GetBigger can post this evening's big announcement video here .... it would be appreciated.

I are too dumb to know just how to do that correctly.

More to follow. Thanks for listening.

I don't like it at all that there are a ton of Olympia editions. The name is just abused as a cash cow.

It means that any NPC show can no longer give professional qualifications to competitors to become an IFBB pro.   More than likely the IFBB is planning to create and build up their amateur division.

To tie in with all this remember that AMI outright owns the the whole Olympia now as well.

I think there is going to be a shift with the IFBB Pro League/NPC running their own worlwdide federation separate from the International IFBB

Possibly but the IFBB would be on the losing end as the NPC has the US market.  The IFBB operates out of Spain so it would be difficult to go out on its own.

Lack of transparency...

And the IFBB operating out of Spain, laughable.

that is why  the NPC is probably going global with the sanctions

lets be real, the NPC already runs the pro league from a media standpoint, like wtf is an amateur league doing so much media stuff at pro shows with international promoters on staff doing interviews for example.

I don't mean this as a slam but the NPC/IFBB pro League has obviously outgrown the old blue suits of the Original dlusion of chasing Olympic Glory International a post office box in every country makes us global Ifbb

Sounds like the IFBB is Soros-funded and NPC wants to make America Great Again.   ;)

Lets also throw in the real elephant in the room.....since the addition of all these crazy categories these shows have become a cash cow for promoters with all the entrant fees, family buying tickets etc.

That kind of cash always creates division between percieved master and minion
