Franco Columbu: Best upper body ever

[oldgolds]

Franco was thick waisted and thick hipped which marred his physique.

Wrong. He was a multiple time Olympia winner.

Who did?

[Royalty]

He had thick pecs and a great rear lat spread

Down side: his arms were not big enough

[BILL ANVIL]

Who did?

Maybe this fella on this particular day...?

Yeah okay.

[pellius]

Yeah okay.

His biceps were a bit on the short side but I think it gave it a greater peak. When you have long biceps like Larry Scott or Kevin Levrone it lacks that high peak.

Remember, this was the early 1970s, Franco's arms were plenty big. It was lack of separation in his quads and that he was slightly bow-legged that was his weak point. Still better than anybody else in his class though Rick Wayne came close.

His arms were great, his pecs a weakness.  Today his chest is a HUGE weakness.

Lol...that's okay....Franco doesn't need you to explain his physique.

I wasnt judging on a bodybuilding criteria but sure, pecs thin. But chest girth was very large being 600lb bencher. His huge neck traps and back thickness make up for the chest.

That spreading gap between the pecs has happened to a few others wrestlers as well.

I wasn't explaining it to Franco, "redmeat".

He had surgery when his larynx was ruptured wrestling in Puerto Rico.  They had to split open his chest to do the surgery and drain his lungs of blood and this is the reason for the big gap.  After he healed up he got the crucifix/heart tattoo to cover the scar and gap.

Did I say uou were explaining it "to Franco"?

Nasty. He had a phenomenal chest in 1998.

Yes, the implication was obvious. What word is "uou"?

I'm a huge fan of Franco but sorry to hurt your feelings by pointing out his obvious and "factual" physique flaws.
