Bob Cicherillo's MC'ing Skills - Good or bad?
« on: February 17, 2020, 12:44:55 AM »
What's with the hate on Bob, regarding his skills as an MC?

I recall once reading that there was one contest [maybe the Nationals or the USA's] where there were something like 700 competitors, and Lonnie Teper managed to get the show over with by midnight.

One wonders if he popped a Viagra to enhance his performance as MC.  ;D

A contest with that many competitors could run into 1am or even 3am, if you have a bad MC.  I don't want to say that it's the hardest job - but experience does matter, and Bob is a proven entity...what seems to be the problem?  ???

ratherbebig 240 is Back told me that Bob had sex with over 100 fitness/figure girls.  :o

Check out this Ironage video of Bob hosting/moderating the 2014 Mr. Olympia press conference.  He does a good job...again, not really sure what the problem is [maybe jealousy from Getbiggers regarding the number of industry girls who Bob gave oral sex to?  Just speculating].

Bob liked to have a 1:1 ratio balance between figure/fitness girls and Arab Sheikhs

No matter what you do, or emcee, you will always have someone against you, just because.   Tons of people like Bob's style, had sense of humor, his passion for the sport, and way of emceeing, and a few do not.  Same with any emcee.  People just love to complain.   Look at the half time show of the Super Bowl.  I and my family and many others thought it was a good 15 minutes concert, Latin style, from Miami.  Others did not.

But isn't it always the same - the ones that complain the most get more attention, than the ones that just enjoy.  It is 10 times harder to offer praise to someone than to complain about them.

voice of reason.. but true being an emcee for a BB contest is not so easy you need to try and keep people entertained during the show.

They should get the Barbarian Brothers to emcee the Arnold and Olympia.  That would be very entertaining.

:o That would be something!
I remember them working out at Golds in the 80s. They were the shit back then. Just before getting banned for spitting and braking equipment.
great potential for movie stardom at the time.

HUMBLE, We did that once as per the advice of Keith (No Worries) and it turned out to be an enjoyable disaster!

But to be completely honest, they did not do any MC'ing but merely talked to each other rather verbosely while the stage hands were re-constructing the stage in preparation for their heavy lifting demonstration which no one had informed them (the stagehands) of beforehand.

I'll send you a PM to tell you how that event ended.

I don't think Keith ever mention anything about that event once it was over .... but we all remained friends .... almost forever.

Bob is fine. I know of Robert Michael, as I've said before, was buddies with his brother. No one is perfect at the job of MC, he did the best he could and delivered well. Bob is one of the few, heed my words here, who can actually string together a simple sentence in the IFBB pro ranks. You put Kai up there and he will go off on an imaginary tangent and then try to fuck his friend Lucille, that just so happens to be his left hand. You put Ronnie up there and he will "Yabba dabba dooo" his ass into another spine surgery. You put most of the other former pro bodybuilders up there (short of Arnold - he would be great at the MC gig) and they will fail. They are mostly, and I say this with all due respect, very, very simple men. Bob has a way to work a crowd, has some basic acting skills and likes to shoot the shit while calling the Olympia.

I know he has done some shit to rub people the wrong way, but when you consider the alternative, there really isn't much. If the Rock decided to do it, then yes, it could be pretty cool. He is well spoken and has charisma for days. But even then, Bob is familiar with the sport at the granular level, very few can claim that.

Is there anyone's ass in the IFBB that you don't kiss? Geez.
