I spoke to CC yesterday, he is well, back training and regaining his health. He will almost definitely be back to do my show in March. Dont write Chris off just yet his competition days are definitely not over. Although Chris did not enjoy being beaten in Oz, he is over it and we have stayed friends. As plenty of the get biggers post shit about pros that they have never met, maybe I should set you all straight. Chris is one of the best competitors a promoter could possibly have in a show. Why you ask? Well for a start he encourages the newer pros, watches their routines and compliments even the rookiest of pros. He keeps things light hearted back stage and dose not suffer from a superior athlete syndrome. He cannot do enough to promote the contest, from press appearances to meeting fans, visiting gyms and coming along to the local weigh in. He even herds up a few of the other pros who are lazy or unmotivated. Chris Cormier and Vince Taylor are the only pros that offer to help any way they can, from unloading the truck to setting up the venue. On top of all that you may not realise that Chris is a huge fan of the sport, he is like an historian. His eye for detail and understanding of bodybuilding would make him a great judge when he has had enough competing.
I just want to set the record straight, don't hate mate.
