For those who don't get it. Here is the Criteria.

1)An Ifbb pro
 For example, just because you are an ifbb pro, does not guarentee PDI Pro staus.

Am I missing something here?

I think it was 97.  He was challenged here, he let the doubters gloat, then he posted evidence and everyone got really quiet again.  monster correct information dissemination.

Jack won his class, which is just like winning it at nationals, if the IFBB didn't require its guys were funneled thru the NPC moneytrain.  he's legit by the PDI requirements.  And compared to old pics of him, he has seriously blown up, and he's ripped to hell with 11 weeks til the NOC.

if a guy like pelletier or K jones wishes to compete, the PDI, as a business, reserves the right to not allow them to join.

the ifbb HAS to let guys compete if they have a pro cars, longa s it's not in invite or a qualifier.  hence the scrubs at the NY Pro bottom, etc.

Ken Jones is retiring from what I heard because he's tired of competing against GH bellies but I never saw him really out of shape or anything.  He's simply too small to do any damage.  He's essentially a beefed up bantamweight from when he won the division at the NPC Nationals.  I'd doubt Wayne would block Ken from competing in the NOC especially for what he did the last NOC show.


Pelletier should have hung up the trunks along with Larry Scott & Frank Zane years ago.  But he apparantly still wants to compete.  I'd say let him.  He did rightfully qualify as an IFBB pro and he does have one pro win under his belt.  I don't think it hurts the show if he's onstage.

My personal opinion is that it's a joke when you see a pelletier up there.  it's like letting a high school scrub tag along on the NFL field.

For a guy who likes himself a whole lot, it seems pretty odd that Jack "The Lying Rhino" London does not have a SINGLE PHOTO of himself "winning" this show. I know it was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure they had cameras back then. Or maybe he went alone and didn't have "Team Lying Rhino" around to support him and take photos.

it aint no wish hunt 240, im all for the PDI and what it stands for  but the criteria should be higher nabba usa standrd is low, the minimum criteria should be nabba world champion at least, as in the case with Steve Sinton from scotland or Frey from Germany, accepting nabba national champions is going to hurt the shows big time as the stage is going to be made up of guys who would all struggle to place top 10 US nationals, and that is not going to attract fans, im all for it but the standard has to be higher, the federation is going to hurt itself by running a show like that, its worrying as the concept is great but there has to be a standard at the moment its to low, and they need to get their wallets out and start signing some better bodybuilders or their show will be a one off as their creditability will be shot.
