Guy made his comeback and then disappeared again...
Under wraps perhaps for the PDI NOC?

The dude from the Aussie said that the day before the contest, Bennafatto was going beserk and is a complete nut job...... hahaha he is a walking meltdown waiting to happen, not surprised if we never hear from him again.. then again , Gandolf may have rescued him and brought him back to the land of the hobbits... what is he like 4-9 ??

I received an email from Francis last week, he is back in South Africa. He said he really enjoyed his comeback and is thinking of further surgery on his torn pec. I saw him back in around 91 and again in my show this year. In 2006 he was 25-30lb heavier and in much better condition. In my opinion, without the pec tear he would have been top 3. The reports of Francis being a nutter were much egagerated. Although he beats to his own drum, he was a fantastic guest. As a promoter I can tell you that he was a pleasure to have in my show. Both Francis and Vince could not do enough to promote the contest. From gym appearances, news and radio interviews, to setting up the venue. They were the first to offer. Any young pros could learn alot form these gentlemen. TD

He was just high on some drugs.

It was Lee and Marc who let people know here :)

Back in the day porn legend John Holmes was taking 50 valiums in a day to balance all the coke he was taking.
So who is to say the 900 pills they found on Benfatto wasn't for personal use?
:-\
While I don't agree that Strydom was at his best in 2006, Benfatto was - torn pec aside. Makes you wonder how much he's doing in the way of bodybuilding drugs also.
Believe it or not 50 valiums is common among sedative abusers, even 10 mgs. I know a girl who takes xanax 30 at a time, she is a total fuck up though.

Correct, Marc was having a bit of fun, albeit at Benfattos expense. Benfatto was so excited to be back competing that people read this excitement as crazy. I had some very lucid conversations with him and he is a stand up guy.

Ahh, but Tony this is not a denial, more of a euphemism. ;D
One persons nutter is another persons hero. It is all in your perception. I am not denying anything, just giving Francis a heads up for being reliable, showing up in shape and not being a primadona. He is absolutely amazing and to be in that condition at 48 is what is fucking crazy!

I agree.

In France with the rest of the pussies. Damn that pec tear looked real bad at the Aussie show.

posts some pictures of him from 2006. from what ive seen so far he's very impressive, one of the more interesting comebacks to come IMO

That s true, and his arms are bigger.
I have no other pictures.

Another euphemism I would say. ;D
I'm sure plenty of bodybuilders have been high well on stage in one way or another. At a local show, someone I know had two shots of brandy before hitting the stage. Might not be much but it was enough for him to feel it.
Didn't Mike Christian do blow during the WBF show?
Not uncommon Matt. I know some bb's that chug quite a bit more. They swear by the alcohol/vascular response for stage prep.

So Bennaffatto isnt a nut ?? ???
