you're all morons.  cormier has no obligation to keep bodybuilding.  to you guys who obsess over this shit, it may be your entire life, but for normal people working out is basically something they do in passing.  to label someone a failure for not reaching their bodybuilding potential is absurd.  you have no say in the direction he chooses to take his life.  maybe he just doesn't give a shit.  who cares if he has great genetics, if he doesn't want to pursue bodybuilding (and why would anyone to begin with?), it's probably for the better.

and also, who the hell are you people to judge his lifestyle?  plenty of people smoke weed, get drunk and go clubbing and live happy lives.  i doubt many of you are aware of this, as your social grasp extends only as far as the internet. 

in short - it's his life, you idiots.  leave the guy alone.

Chris "Soft-"Cor Mier

His nickname is actually "Rainbow".

Don't think he got it from winning in San Franscisco.

I think you're reading this the wrong way mate. People have big confidence in Cormier's abilities. We just wants him to fulfill his potential.

Cormier has been bitching over his placings the last few years.


Chances are, that if he would've trained, dieted and lived with the discipline of a Yates, a Coleman, nobody could've denied him the ASC or the Olympia.

But perhaps Cormier is afraid of maxing out his potential. Maybe he's more comfortable not knowing whether he could've been the greatest.

Now he was just a contender.

Still, I think he should've won the Olympia in 1999.

on some level, yes, i believe that these comments stem from people's curiosity over what he'd look like at his best.  my problem is with the self rigteous attitude people take on these issues. 

the fact is that bodybuilding is not a sport, it's a hobby.  additionally, i believe that in most cases interest in bodybuilding stems from extreme body dysmorphia.  i'd venture to guess that most of you on this message board spend excessive ammounts of time standing in front of a mirror.  though we can't fully understand the mindsets of these pros, we can at least realize that they're merely human.  knowing this, it should be understood that those who take it the furthest are probably the ones with the greatest insecurities.  maybe cormier is happy the way he is, no?

I understand BBing to a certain degree, i realize it's basically an obsession with you own body and with that being said we all know everyone is genetically limited to what they can look like. That is a reason why i don't think i could be competitive, i don't like to compete in ANYTHING unless i plan to win or do very very well (which has always been a downfall of mine) and when you start BBing with that kind of a mindset it can really effect your overall performance, i personally don't (in my own mind) take things to the limit because i like the feeling that i could have done better even when i do awesome or win in something because who wants to say they did all they could and still not be the best/best ever. Either way i know it's not the healthiest thing and all that but it's the way i feel at times and i guarantee other do also, it's all just a struggle with perfection.

Monster original response.

There has seldom been an Olympia winner without a controversial win or 2.

Scott...'66 (Sipes kicked his ass)
Arnold...'72 and '80 (Oliva and the rest of the top 5 in '80)
Zane...just ugh. (Particularly vs. Mentxer in '79)
Haney...'90 (Labrada)
Yates...'94  (Shawn and Levrone)
Coleman...2001 (Cutler), 2002 (Kevin and Gunter)

I know your comment was somewhat in jest, I just hato to see so many hate on the man after the fact...  truth is, during his reign, even Nasser, Kevin and Shawn acknowledged that Yates would never be beaten on size and conditioning (1994 notwithstanding!).

YAtes deserved the win in 94 - he was still bigger and better conditioned than anyone else on stage

97, on the other hand . . . with his torn bi and tri he looked like he had one of those underdeveloped gimp arms. Nasser was unbeleivably good that night. Dorian wouldn't have complained if he had lost

I think Cormier has gotten to the point where he just doesn't give a shit about bodybuilding any more. Almost every time there has been a close decision, he has gotten the short end of the stick- 99 O, 2004 and 2005 ASC. At some point, I think he just said to himself "fuck it, what's the point?"

 He's more comfortable living the sterotype. I think he thinks being so embedded in ------culture...if he won the O or ASC...he'd be an UncleTom.

 He'd rather worry about gittin' 20's...having a pitbull or two as a pet...downloading hip/hop/rap ringtones for his cell phone, watching BET channel and babbling endlessly and epically on his cell phone telling all his bitches/ho's how they are his one and only baby boo.

 He won lots of pro shos and he does have one of the greatest physiques of all time but like I think Hedge said...if he lived the discipline life of a Ronnie or Jay or Yates or Haney...he'd win the big ones...HOWEVER...living the sterotype is more important it appears.

I thought this was going to be a joke thread about him tearing the flexor digitorum profundus muscle in his index finger from too much cell phone dialing.

Instead, we get the hot breaking news flash that Chris is lazy.

Damn.  :-\
