Let’s say when he was younger and started talking serious he was always written in shape good muscle bellies if you took all the gear like Jay and Ronnie, could he have stood a chance?

No.
He would be in his heyday a poor man Francis Benfatto.
He had good lines.

He's no Bhanky.

Maybe fitness if the IFBB had a men's division.

Would his maroon underwear pass for posing trunks?

I love how he puts them on ever so gently

Could Jay have been an action star?

Chris Dickerson won in 1982, so...yes.

Not quite maroon there. A point is deducted

All legs.

Great potential albeit I doubt he could have hung with Levrone & Co.

robcguns · « **Reply #17 on:** January 16, 2023, 05:07:03 AM »

No way to know unless he juiced heavily. He did have good genetics obviously but whether good enough to go the distance will never be seen.

In the mid-late 80s, though? Against guys like Gaspari and Labrada? Yeah, I'm thinking he'd do pretty well if he juiced to the gills.

Maybe he could have served as a better looking alternative to Gaspari.

He had a solid build in his day, no he wasn't natty, he probably got as big as he could get

To be as flexible, mobile, and athletic as he was, I doubt that he had maxed out his size potential. He had great kicks (in a movie setting)

Bolo looks the worst out of all.

His reality show was awesome, behind closed doors I think it was called.
