I look far more socially acceptable than most pro bodybuilders, I wouldn't want to look like the current crop of pros in a million years.

AGREED they look ill and unhealthy the BB of the 80s early 90s are over and just to prove how unaccepted its become, I remember in the 80s 90s you could catch BB competitions on TV  and in this day and age they will put anything TV  if they can get ratings and BB is no where to be found...

So does this mean that the top pros within Arnold's IFBB International events will be eligible to compete within the IFBB Pro Olympia events?

Something sounds a bit out of line here.
