I stopped by to see King about 10:30am Montreal time to see if what I was hearing was true. I spoke with Ron and he said King would be noticably down in weight and looking much better. Bob Chic said that King could make changes in one week on PBW earlier in the week. Jim Magnone made the drive up here to help dry King out. At the Europa Prejudging King weighed 257lbs. As of this morning he is 247 and will step on stage around 243. King's had 5 no carb days straight to help bring him down. King was very polite, had no predictions for this show and was very humble. He knows everyone expects him to do better then he did in Dallas.
I didn't believe that someone could change much in a week. I was proven wrong and Jim has helped King come down in size in 6 days. I know, I know everyone will say if the contest was in his hotel room he'd do good and all that. He still has about 15% more to go but one thing is for sure, everyone will see a different King on stage tomorrow then they did in Dallas.
Pics taken 10:30am - Sept. 2nd - 247lbs.

a couple more...

same old same old, arms look 17 inches at best and legs look skinny from the back, 11th place has his name pre printed on it.
-
Looking pretty good King, major improvement in a freaking WEEK!
-
Monster calves...
-
one positive about King is that he has some of the biggest traps in the sport and a good chest.
-

Bullshit. If you can't acknowledge a huge positive difference here, you are fucking blind.
-
he looks "big" there, big chest/shoulders/back, but you can still see the pretuding waist there imo, and he is flexing, he should never have tried to play the size game.
His midsection has a reverse taper :-\
-
Say what you will about the guy but you can't deny the guy has made drastic changes in a week. Only so much one can change in one week and he's definitely proven you can. He doesn't have the "bloated" look he did last week. I saw him there and saw him here and it is a distinct difference.
-
Say what you will about the guy but you can't deny the guy has made drastic changes in a week.
in all honesty he looks pretty good there with the exception of the small arms and legs from behind but fuck his left arm looks tiny.

True, he still has work to do on the waistline. Also, his bicep insertions will always be a problem area. Calves are weak also, and he could use more knotty detail in his back.
All in all, however, he looks a world apart from last week. He resembles the pro who took the stage in 01. Good on ya, King!
-

he does look good there, but you can't compare pic's taken in a kitchen/hotel room, to the stage. ::)
-
gotta say the guys trying hard,a lot of people would have gone into hibernation for a year after what happened last week,whats wrong with his lower back though?is that just structure or is it the same thing that caused his stomach to protrude? im not trying to bash here i actually respect the guys guts for keeping plugging away at it
-
I don`t like his physique, but the changes in one week are unbelieveable
-
I never thought in a million years he could change it up THAT quick. Hope he places well and keeps up what he is doing. Whether you like him or not the guy did make many quick improvements whether or not he places well.
-
Got any more pics Lift?
-
More than stomach,
I think his arms are serious problems that he must improve.
-
Gotta give him credit for trying, he dose look a little drier but we won't be able to see if he has that gut till he gets on stage
-
Lets just see if he can stay on track until the actual competition. He does look good in those pics. The competition is where it counts though. You can take all the Pre-contest pics you want. That wont win the contest for you. Dennis James looks awesome all the way to the contest but usually cant dial it in for the most part.. I hope King can do something good for himself. I am glad he hasnt really been on this site for a while. Better to concentrate on the contest prep than worry about what people are saying about him on these boards... I think its better for him to keep his mouth shut...
-
See for yourself................ ..
-
in all honesty he looks pretty good there with the exception of the small arms and legs from behind but f**k his left arm looks tiny.
yes!! his left bicep is completely different to the right one theres more of a "valley" from the bicep to the forearm.is this genetic or has he had a biceps tear in the past?
-
That's it for the pics on King today. Since he is significantly lighter in weight you will notice a difference in his stomache come show time. The dude can't change his structure but my point is this; Gotta give him mad props for making the changes his did in 6 days. Let the chips fall as they may come show time.
Peace

a couple more...
I agree he looks much better... at this point he has to focus on conditioning...
good job
-
See for yourself................ ..
again. your comparing an onstage, to pic in a hotel room, from a different angle/lens etc etc.
-
However, I think its silly to judge if he changed his body a lot.
The contest will NOT held in the Hotel room.
-
yes!! his left bicep is completely different to the right one theres more of a "valley" from the bicep to the forearm.is this genetic or has he had a biceps tear in the past?
The insertion is a tad different, and he's pronating the wrist in most pics which will amplify the problem.
IMO, if he does the most muscular shots without the crab pose, he should consciously keep his palms facing backwards. Also, in a front double bi, he'd look better with his palms forward rather than inward.
-
See for yourself................ ..
Notice how much more his face is sunk in today vs. last week. Definitely will be MUCH drier tomorrow. Props to Jim for helping him make the changes he has, we'll see how it play out tomorrow.
How original to post the comments on the hotel room. We covered that already and know it's different. The point is the dude made changes and it will show on stage.
-

improvement is improvement, onstage is a helluva lot different but the guy has improved. Lighting is different, lens, blah blah. Let me guess hotel pics are optical illusions? Im not tabbing King for first or anything crazy but contest to contest improvements are tough no matter who the hell you are. Give the man his props he improved from the last saturday to this saturday

All Im saying is he made improvements, thats all. Im a king fan and im glad he improved FROM LAST SATURDAY TO THIS SATURDAY.

i was going to say the exact same thing,you can see in the contest pics that his face is bloated and in the hotel pics his face looks much more drawn and not bloated at all.im looking forward to the show to see what happens maybe this last couple of weeks could have been the best thing that could have happened to king,hopefully it has humbled him a little

Big changes for sure, but it depends if guys like Darram, Farah, and JOJ, also made big changes this week. Overall though, big improvement.
The hams and calves look a bit weak from the back, but the front shots look pretty good.
-
"Notice how much more his face is sunk in today vs. last week"
Looks great to me ::)
Are you incapable of mentioning that he looks much better?
BTW, I don't think he looks like an Olympia stage caliber physique, but I do think he looks much improved.
Are you that insecure even after being an all time great champion that you can't give props to an athlete far below your status?

what is this strange knot on his right hamstring??

I assuming this is sarcasm??????

I don't even know where to begin. First, Tamali doesn't look "good". He looks flat and has quite possibly the worst arms, legs, and calves ever seen in the pro ranks. If he attempts any carb up whatsoever that gut he's trying his best to hold in for these pics is going to swell back up and look worse than ever since the rest of him is even smaller than last week. Sure he looks better than he did last week. How could he possibly look worse than that mess he showed up with at the Europa?? Bodybuilding contests aren't judged on who looks better in their hotel room than they did last week. Just wait until Tamali gets out of his hotel room and stands next to real pros with those pathetic arms, legs, and calves. I'm sure he is being humble, he sees the writing on the wall. He's done.
-
Lift, you know I love you but are you ready to put money on a top 3 placing yet? :-\
-
He doesn't look too flat. Just a tad, but that's preferable to bloated. With a pump he should look on.
-
Lift, you know I love you but are you ready to put money on a top 3 placing yet? :-\
top 3? hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very skinny leggs. maybe the 8 spotters did too much work?

Lift, you know I love you but are you ready to put money on a top 3 placing yet? :-\
No. I didn't say he died and came back as Ronnie Coleman for this show. Simply letting people know he'll look better then last week and we'll see where he places. You can bet with Ron though, he likes to gamble.
:-*
-
DILLET WILL KILL HIM !
I think for sure Charles D, JOJ, Farah, will palce ahead of him. I think Stubbs may have a shot were it not for the legs, Dillett? Who knows how he will show up???
Is Atwood competing?

there is absolutely no way that Kamali should ever place ahead of Joel Stubbs, Stubbs is so far ahead of Kamali that it's laughable.

The competitors meeting is tonight. I will give an update on the final list later. Art said he was competing in this show when Ron and I spoke with him backstage.
I'm looking forward to seeing Dillet's return. He claimed he was going to win the show, let's see if he lives up to his hype.

Oh, Ok.
Well, I dont think from the pics improving from last week was going to be too hard but last minute Carb Loading always changes, and so does stepping on stage out of your hotel room to compete against better guys.
I wish him all the best, please give him my regards ;D

1. Top 3?
2. Top 10?
3. Make it to the evening?

I don't see it. JOJ will beat him for sure. Dillett is always hit or miss big time.
Are you going to post prejudging photos tommorow????

There will be no last minute carb loading, or anything remotely close to it...Kings program this last week was right out of old school tech> suffering, depleating, spacing meals out, cardio, etc...
My young Padawan has learned much, from his not too much older Jedi Master World Champ!

So Bob you're saying Tamali's going to be able to go a full 24 hours with no donuts, candy bars, pizza, soda, apple pie filling, cheeseburgers? Good luck with that, your work is cut out for you.

What are you gonna do for your padawans arms, Lord Chick?

Gotta give him mad props for making the changes his did in 6 days. Let the chips fall as they may come show time.
gotta be careful - from what disgusted said, King looked fooking incredible in the days before the Europa show then lost it when he tried to size up for the show. He looks great alone, but the tradeoff that comes with whether he wants to come in that skinny, or if he wants to eat up and risk the belly swell. I predict 6th for King.
Is there a montreal webcast?
-spoiled Bbing fan.
-
I don't see it. JOJ will beat him for sure. Dillett is always hit or miss big time.
Are you going to post prejudging photos tommorow????
Photos will be on FLEXONLINE.com (http://www.flexonline.com) tomorrow after prejudging.
Chic - that's how King described it, minus the Jedi Master part. LOL

key word - "days before" Not the DAY before. I'd hardly describe him as "skinny". King and Disgusted (Jim) are doing things different then what King did for the Europa.
No montreal webcast. The bb.com crew is at Muscle Beach for the weekend.

Here's what nobody gets... Kamali's problem isn't and never was conditioning. His problem is structure, which now includes a protruding gut and shrinking limbs, in addition to the muscle belly/ insertion problems he's always had.
Everyone's talking about his "drying out", "coming in lighter", his diet, etc. All that affects conditioning, which has nothing at all to do with why he sucks as a bodybuilder.
You people are seriously deluding yourselves if you think Shari can go from bottom of the barrel to a respectable showing in a week simply by fuccking around with his diet. The only way King places at all well in this show is if the only competition is 5th-tier, and no way he gets top 3 in any event.
Hope this helps. ::)

Like I said, how does he beat guys like JOJ and Charles Darrem? The fight for third seems to be very tight without Taylor, Freeman, and the rest of the pros there.

I could've opted to compete in the Olympia...I chose to honor my contract to MC the event, as I agreed to 3 months before the Masters.
I'm not knocking on Ronnie, Jay, Dexter, etc door...at best, I believe I could be competitive for the 9-15 crew...nice and all, but honestly...I'll make more money hosting, give myself and my companies more exposure, use my talents to better the show (hopefully) and continue to make the transition from in front of the camera, to behind.
I'm not interested in pushing the envelope to gain a few placings in the Olympia...don't need the money, don't need th exposure, in the muscle mags, have contracts,etc... pretty much all the reasons guys try to reach that level, I've been fortunate to achieve.
There is more to being a professional BB than just competing.

Exactly, great post. It's amazing how low Tamali has lowered the bar for himself. If any other pro posted pics like these we'd be bashing the hell out of them. His body is a total mess.
-
King made some great improvements in this one week. Waist has come down nicely. He should be formidable this time around and may get an Olympia spot. I know I am gonna get thrashed for saying that but thats my opinion and I stickin' to it. :)

Dude starving your boy, putting him on a bike for a week and telling him that he looks better than last week is not going to change the outcome this week. What kamali needs right now is a damn reality check already. Yup dead last, again.

I think you would be a very good friend to Kamali if you taught him these things and your common sense understanding of basic economics and professionalism than anything else.

Lee should rent his arms to Kamali for 10 million doller.
Sorry,he cant pay.......

i think king MIGHT be too far gone to benefit from chicks expertise(i hope this isnt the case).but i think a lot of other up and coming bodybuilders could definitely benefit from his advice like staying away from slin and things like that,and show them that they dont need that stuff to look good and they would look better without it.
he would do more to help the up and coming guys than the other"gurus"

Come on Shawn-o...even you have to admit, he looks 100% better.
I guarantee there will be no last minute anything, he'll be 10% drier in the a.m....
TOP 5, brother!

Again. Its not matter of condition.
Its shape problem.
And his ARMS!!
-
Once again...thread goes to s##t. Where will he fall? Agree with GH15 he has to come down in size. Looks much better. Yates' arms sucked, and most of the guys have BS for calves. If he were to place 4th...would he grab a spot at the O...if guys ahead of him have already qualified?
He is on the right track. If he doesnt make the O...he should work on a 225-230 physique over the next 12 mths.

Considering the competition, that does not say that much.
-
The improvements are great, nevertheless he achieved the maximum what`s possible with his kind of physique. So he should quit, BEFORE he´ll be another Palumbo, Kovacs etc.
I think his place would be in the WWF. He`s the kind of guy they are searching for.
-
I bash King a lot, mainly because it's fun as hell. Anyway,dude has sharpened up a lot since last week.
But alas, i don't think he'll make top three,solid effort though! 8)

Good Point!
-
Come on Shawn-o...even you have to admit, he looks 100% better.
There you go with your fuzzy math again. Please quantify the "100%" figure. I am a big fan of chiconomics, I just don't understand it all yet. thanks!
-
Good Point!
From a business point of a view, you are 10000000% right. King could fit right in and be the "New Iron Sheik" and rake it in.
-
Of course you don't understand it...you know nothing about bodybuilding.

240....I think what Bob is trying to say.....
instead of King pulling a 180.....he did a 360
;D
-

Even he made a good show with HHH in the press conference of the Mr.o
-
Of course you don't understand it...you know nothing about bodybuilding.
I understand BB, and his lats are like completely gone ... he has stange type bumps all over...his arms look like crap , did I mention his back looks like scrambled eggs ?
-
Not only financially, I guess it would be better for his health also.
So we have money and health, reasons enough
-
Even he made a good show with HHH in the press conference of the Mr.o
Tha'ts my point, he is 34 y/o and in the prime of his life, why waste it pursuing small time $$$ when he could go into the WWE and make it big time with an Iranian type story line like they did with Hulk Hogan vs. Iron Sheik?
Seriously, this is where King needs to wake the F$^^ up and smell the pro-tan.
-
HAHHHHAHHHAHHAHHAHHAHHHH AHAH
He STILL has Palumboism.
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
You still look like the goof from Rocky Horor..!!
-
Of course you don't understand it...you know nothing about bodybuilding.
Okay. please explain your 100% figure so that I will know something about BBing.

Yes. honestly I love his caratcter because of this. Other BBer are very very very Boring! Nobody make success in Pro-wrstling. But,Kamali not. He is fanny, talk well,entertaining. And on the ring, his body looks better than other wrestler 1000 times.
If he dont, maybe because of having enough money or just super stupid.
-
Maybe he never had this idea and we should tell him
-
Maybe he never had this idea and we should tell him
I dont think so. Bcause its too easy to have this idea.
Maybe high pride as a pro or he dont feel that he did 100%.
That makes sence and if I were him, I have done that too(Try 100% as a pro BBer).
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
You still look like the goof from Rocky Horor..!!
Why are you taking it personally.
He has been diagnosed with Palumboism, and until you find a cure,which you cannot, consider it good riddance.
-
Nevertheless Chick is right. You look like a goof. Roids or not, you`ve one of the shitiest physiques I`ve ever seen.
-
I could've opted to compete in the Olympia...I chose to honor my contract to MC the event, as I agreed to 3 months before the Masters.
I'm not knocking on Ronnie, Jay, Dexter, etc door...at best, I believe I could be competitive for the 9-15 crew...nice and all, but honestly...I'll make more money hosting, give myself and my companies more exposure, use my talents to better the show (hopefully) and continue to make the transition from in front of the camera, to behind.
I'm not interested in pushing the envelope to gain a few placings in the Olympia...don't need the money, don't need th exposure, in the muscle mags, have contracts,etc... pretty much all the reasons guys try to reach that level, I've been fortunate to achieve.
There is more to being a professional BB than just competing.
Good for you...What people don't understand is...at the end of the day ,it's about making money..
f**k all the other bullshit.. You've nothing to prove to anyone..Live long and live healthy!
Get that money brother !
-
Nevertheless Chick is right. You look like a goof. Roids or not, you`ve one of the shitiest physiques I`ve ever seen.
If you lived in Germany in the early 40s, they would have carried you off for looking deformed. ahahah

Wrong again, idiot.
Take care about your own business, I guess there is enough to be done for you.
-
Perhaps your family did though. haha
Hey your caracter is like Kamali type.
Why dont you be a wrestler?
-
And you always pose very strange..
On the ring,it doesnt look strange.
-
Monster calves...
Those have to be the worst calves of any Pro BB on the circuit.
-
one word that describes King....
"Scary"
-
Looks hard but still a mess. and why doesn't he get a haircut so he doesn't resemble of 14 year old mexican boy from the 1980s?
-
how tall is king?
you have to be athletic to be in WWF as well
-

Yeah thats what I worried about.
I dont know if King is.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

That's what he reminds me of... been bugging me for months... thanks Bob.
-

I actually spoke to a recruiter once at a smaller wrestling show held at the Elks Loge in Queens N.Y.. It was for ECW at the time and the guy tried to recruit me. I said WTF I am only like 5' 9 at best. He said most of the wrestlers are not as tall as you think and they excagerate the height a lot.
-
LETS HOPE HE GETS EVEN HARDER AND TAKES THE 3.SPOT FOR THE OLYMPIA. I'LL BE LAUGHING SO HARD IF HE DOES.
He won't. Looking at the competitor list, 6th-7th seems to be the very best he can hope for, unless several of the better guys drop out.
He still has the Atlantc City and the Spain show to try and qualify. If the competition is weak at those shows, maybe he'll squeak in. If he can't qualify this year, with the bazillion shows the IFBB has had, he'll never qualify.
-
CAn anyone answer my question ...
what happened to his lats ???? they are like disfigured !!!!
-
Those have to be the worst calves of any Pro BB on the circuit.
I have two words for you..................... ..
Tony Pearson!
-
Not too shabby, King.
-
I will be making no last minute drastic changes to Kings diet or water intake!! All the improvements that King has made so far have been thru diet and water intake. He is drinking plenty of water and eating very little and I can tell you that he has suffered this week and I told him that he would when he approached me on Sun about wanting me to take over to dry him out. He is about 5% better now than from the pics this morning and I will say about another 10 to 15% to go till the prejudging. No predictions. My goal all along has been to bring him in the best possible shape possibe. Where ever he places is up to the judges.

Did he come off the androgens this week? Serious question!
-
Smallest arms I have ever seen. Well, besides Ken Jones.
And surprisingly, he has NO calves! And he ain't even black?! WTF?
-
I have two words for you..................... ..
Tony Pearson!
Well you're right but I meant CURRENT Pro's and look at Tony's waist in comparison.
-
King's lower back is weird. Not flaming. It just looks weird. has there been a lumbar ruling for palumboism?
-
In my gym, Kamali would be a god of bodybuilding - even in the whole city for that matter. In the pro ranks, he remains the 24th highest ranking pro out there and possibly has Olympia qualifying potential. He has made some great improvements since last week judging by these pictures.
exactly, King would be the biggest motherf.ucker in 98 percent of gyms, he's just a sucky IFBB pro.
-
I think he looks great!
-
King should be top 10 no problem, top 5 good chance, top 3 hope so but doubtful unless chick is right and he tightens up a bit more. Good luck to him!!!!!!!!!
-
If he had to get his pro card this year, would he get it? Honest question.
No, top 5 in his class and thats about it....he was pretty good years ago, I not only blame him for screwing himself up, but I think I balme the judges more!!
-
If King can keep this physique, then he will do well tomorrow. But isnt it the same story over and over again. King looks really good before the contest, and then places on stage, and we all wondered what happened.
-
King's lower back is weird. Not flaming. It just looks weird. has there been a lumbar ruling for palumboism?
i said the same thing 240 in this thread or it might have been one of the other ones,it looks like the back region were talking about is being pushed out in the same way as the ab region is on the other side.i asked if what was causing it was the same reason as the protruding guts we see but nobody answered.ive never noticed this before so i would be interested in the answer

This is his best to date... Good work King!

Well said, Chick. This is why you're ahead of 99.9% of BBders in the industry. You're smart as hell, driven and you make well thought out decisions, most of the time. Props.
But...Brenda fricking Kelly? Dude..you coulda had ANYONE....

looks like hes got a slight tear in his left lat. look at the chrismas tree doesnt look right.
hes made improvements in conditioning but his gut will be just as big..

King just wants to be excepted.. If you guys ever met him, I bet he'd let you feel his biceps..

His calves look like a bag of marbles,when will these guys learn.??

There will be no last minute carb loading, or anything remotely close to it...Kings program this last week was right out of old school tech> suffering, depleating, spacing meals out, cardio, etc...
My young Padawan has learned much, from his not too much older Jedi Master World Champ!
Stay away from the pie crust filling & preserves....
-
He looks fantastic.
Good luck King, and great job. 8)
-
If he had to get his pro card this year, would he get it? Honest question.
He looks ok, shit he's way bigger than me and if I saw him at a gym I would be talking up a storm about diet, training, and gear cycles with him, but he just can't compare to some of the top pros today. I still think he could probably qualify for the Olympia if he came back in his 2001 condition. At 34, this really shouldn't be a problem since we have guys like Vince Taylor coming in at or near their best at age 50.
http://www.getbig.com/pics/olympia/2001/pre/kamali.htm
http://www.getbig.com/pics/olympia/2001/finals/kamali.htm
in my honest oppinion the year he got his pro card bob had him beat anyway i think,the pictures prove it
yorkshire "bobs new biggest fan" terrier ;D

I see alot of water on the night stand- if i were him id would not be drinking anything till tomorrow night- alos- is that dogfood I see on the floor-lol is some new diet?

gotta give you credit here chick with Kings condition...great job
-
Kamali is on his way to find out if he can cut it.
IMO, coming down in weight like this was the best thing he's done since looking good in 1994.
Now he should try to get tighter in the offseason, perhaps an offseason 250-260? and look to compete at around 225-230. Only then will he know if he can reverse the P-2.
YIP

HOLY SHIT! Talk about a 360 degree turnaround!!

I still hold to my contention that he should pursue the WWE where he could make real money. He reminds me a lot of the guy on TV called "Chopper" who sells the cars in Las Vegas.

His body is not built for it....

This is true. my bad.

Worst arms ever for a pro, no forearm muscularity and horrible tris and bis inserting far away from the elbow. Just pathetic.
No detail in shoulders...at all. Are there even three muscle groups in his shoulders? Sure cant tell.
No detail in back, too much space between muscle groups. See ron or any other pro bb for what it looks like to have a thick and full back.
Legs are truly horrible. Seperations are weak in front, without a striation in sight. From the back, WTF!? No calves to mention and hamstrings are totally washed out, "i ride a horse" legs apart posing doesnt help.
If this is "improvement" then he has a long way to go. Looks like the P-ism is destroying anything good that was there to begin with.
Word.

From the front, he looks alot better, in my opinion, but the back? The calves are GONE! The hams are GONE! His back doesn't look thick, but at least he doesn't look watery and bloated. The thing that gets me is that he goes all the way to 300 pounds and when he diets down this is what is left. Why go that high? It makes no sense. He spent 5 years lifting heavy and eating like an animal and he is still the same size as when he turned pro?
What happened that in 5 years you can eat like an animal, do all sorts of drugs and GH, and not make any gains at all when all the fat and water is striped away?

WOW..
I bet you would give your nuts to look like him, then you would think you were king kong, no? Its easy to poke fun and bash, but putting it in perspective, the guy looks GREAT, and he did a great job turning it up a notch with his physique for this show.
Stop hating, and start giving some praise...
If I were King, I wouldnt give a shit anyhow with all the negative comments, hell people bash and flame Ronnie, and Jay, the two bes tbodybuilders on the planet...you cant make everyone happy, ever..
Just remember, they are pro bodybuilders, something everyone here aspired to become at some point or another when they first lifted a weight..then realized it aint happening...you know how hard it is, show some respect.

I disagree with you about one aspect of your post. You said that we all aspired at one point to become a pro-bodybulder. Most of us are somewhat realistic and realized early on that poverty is not a good option and actually pursuing a career that will earn you a living is more important than pursuing something that not only costs you money, but will not provide for a future other than for maybe the top 1 percent of all pro bb's.
For me, my thinking is that if I am going to pursue something hard that drains me and takes my all, that I get a reward out of it other than a plastic trophy and a pair of bitch tits. For 99% of the guys out there, that is all they can expect.
I have had three friends pursue bb over other endeavors and two are now in their late thirties with nothing to fall back on and the third is a court officer.
Some people like Shawn, Charles Darrem, and Jay are smart in that they treat bb like a business which it should be if that is the career. However, it is a costly pursuit of windmills for most others who think they are going to make any real $$$ out of it.
Is it a lot of hard work yes! Is it demanding yes! Is it rewarding personally yes! But a career, a future? For 99.9% no way!
-
I cant believe that I 'm saying this but he looks fantastic... :o Very good move to come down in weight. :)
-
He looks better (than europe), but a competetive pro bodybuilder? In those 1st page/hotel room photos, he looks like a guy doing the light-heavies at the USA or maybe the Nationals. All that money & time... :(
-
I cant believe that I 'm saying this but he looks fantastic... :o Very good move to come down in weight. :)
I think that compared to last week yes. However, objectively, the answer is still no when you consider the other pros out there. The calves and hams are non existent. The tri's ???
I give him a lot of credit for even making it to Sunday considering the train wreck that happened last week and that awful gut.
However, the bar should not be that he looks fantastic so long as he does not look terrible. That is like when people think GWB gives a great speech only because he puts a sentence together. The expectations are so low that anything looks good.
-

I have been arguing that for some time now. How much money, time, effort, etc, has gone into getting to right now for him? Its really sad when you think about it. Whether it was Chad or the overeating, or the drugs, it seems like after five years he is still is in the same place.
-
I think that compared to last week yes.
You got the message. ;)

Even assuming best case scenrio for him tommorow, he still has serious questions to ask himself.

Ya.... it's a mess really. I'm looking at the hotel pics & the shot of him backstage and I see: decent pecs, large but unrefined delts, average abs, no quads, zero calves, less than zero hamstrings, no arms, OK traps from the front, no traps from the rear, OK tan, minimal taper, no back thickness, no vascularity.... man, there's just nothing there. I don't know how he can weigh more than 218-220 at the very most? I'm really confused about the current state of professional bodybuilding, if this type of package even makes the top 10.

I am confused at after 5 years of intense working out and eating and extras that after all the fat and water are cut he is still the same as when he turned pro?
Its as if he would have been better off not doing anything different than when he was an amatuer bb making decent gains year to year. Of course people reach peaks etc, but come on, this is crazy.
-
No calves, no back detail, no arms but has big waist.. That's pretty much a Tamali.. What's new?
-
really the show isn't held in a hotel room?
Kamali is trying desperately to get the promotor to move it to his kitchen in Jersey!

Dont cry because the truth is spoken here. Your fantasy boy looks like shit. Judges will agree on contest day.
I have NO interest to look like him. I dont suffer delusional body image problems.

Tsk tsk..... Ron loves it. O.K, keep posting, and threading and talking about this...this....I don't know WHAT he is......

how can anyone really say he made changes from last week without seeing last weeks 1 day out pictures from in a hotel room and compare them to these new pictures?...
after the show tomorrow we can take last weeks show pictures and compare them to this weeks ---the way it should be done....
but to me, i don't see anything different in these pictures...Even though he is depleted, he doesn't have a single striation on his body...And he doesn't have one on contest day when he is all carbed up either...

give the guy a break
he's doing what he loves to do

Must be easy to blast an IFBB PRO. How can you people dislike a guy you dont even know? How many potential IFBB pros are on this message board? Maybe 5-8 MAYBE. Give the guy a break. He improved from last week, bottom line. No one else is posting theyre pics to be criticized except a certain nobody who posts his pics just to get attention and have everyone laugh at his ridiciulous physique and attempts to irritate IFBB pros and old guys whos physique would probably lay waste to his own. But to hate King so much? Why? That desperate? This thread grew to 3 or so pages in 15 minutes. Hate someone that you give so much pub? HMMMMMMM.
-
In a few hour's we find out if King has what it take's.

Hey you are not young kid right?

Hey you are not young kid right?
you make good coment.
Unlike many others, I am observant to reality, common sense, and psychology.
A guy like King deep down loves the attention. He can say all this and that about getting a lawyer and notliking the personal attacks, but in reality if he was not getting attacked and waging his own counter-offensive, where in the news would he be? Nowhere. He certainly would not have the MT sponsorship were it not for the continued controversy.
So, he knows that negative attention is better than no attention.
Seriously, you have many people including myself all interested to see how he places in the Montreal show. The bar has been so lowered for his expectations that so long as he does not look like he did last week he can claim a massive comeback, a victory, a re-birth, etc etc.
He s like B.J. Clinton in a way that all the negative attention, even though warranted, helped him out.

Bullshit. If you can't acknowledge a huge positive difference here, you are fucking blind.
AGREED. Hate him if you like but he looks great in the pics! Conditioning is on target, good torso and delts. Room lighting sholud not be better than stage lighting (although with Pro BB you never know)so if he goes into the show in that condition he should do well.
King placing in the top 5 or beter? Thats gonna make for some great threads here. ;D
-
Unlike many others, I am observant to reality, common sense, and psychology.
A guy like King deep down loves the attention. He can say all this and that about getting a lawyer and notliking the personal attacks, but in reality if he was not getting attacked and waging his own counter-offensive, where in the news would he be? Nowhere. He certainly would not have the MT sponsorship were it not for the continued controversy.
So, he knows that negative attention is better than no attention.
Seriously, you have many people including myself all interested to see how he places in the Montreal show. The bar has been so lowered for his expectations that so long as he does not look like he did last week he can claim a massive comeback, a victory, a re-birth, etc etc.
He s like B.J. Clinton in a way that all the negative attention, even though warranted, helped him out.
Prop to you.

I like King and hope he places Top 5 or better. Could or could not happen b/c he hasnt had a good year so far, but judging by the 1 day out pics he at least knows the europa rendition of himself was flat out bad. Didnt bitch or moan just made a drastic change. If he places top 5 or better whatever thread thats on will explode to 10 pages in 10 minutes with haters turning into king fans and other haters disappearing. I dont care what IFBB show it is, top 5 in any pro show is impressive just because they are PROS.

I told King on Mon that I wanted him onstage at 243. He weighed 242 this morning at 6 am. So, by 2 pm he shuould be exactly 243. I did no crazy carb up on him. He will be 13 pounds lighter with a tighter waist and very sharp. the home work is done. The rest is up to the judges.
-
Who was the guy that got him into shape for the Europa?
Disgusted, you might be able to charge some serious loot in the future if you turn the Europa showing into a Top 3 finish in a week!
You're gonna need a website buddy.... ;)

Ok tough guy .........then you should team up with Chicko and start your own be a pro bodybuilder in a week program and showcase Tamali as your winning case file. LOL
Come on already get real. NUMBERS MEAN NOTHING. 243-242 -241 who the hell cares! The guy looks like shit at every wieght- did last year, did last week, does today and will still look like shit come game day.
Lets be very clear here Tamali's body is simply not cut out for the current pro scene. Get real already and give your boy a reality check.
-keep it real-

oK then you are working for Kamali either for money or recognition as you surely can not be doing it with the belief that this guy can challenge anybody on a pro stage with the way he looks now. Quit building yourself up and blowing smoke up kamali's rear end and tell it like it is.
Like i told Chicko - your boy is going to be dead last dead last. yes anyhting outside of top ten is DEAD LAST!
Why the comment up teaming up with Chicko? Because he is the wone running around here bragging on what he is doing to help out his boy for canada-i then just assumed you guys must be working together.
Wrong about Kamali we shall see. I predicted his placement last week I stand by it today.
-keep it real-
-
He is just stating fact that he is helping Kamali dry out. Whos bragging? Shut up and let the show happen first.
-
It kinda hurts to look at him.. He's trying so hard, yet it seems the damage has been done... If I ever get into competitive bodybuilding, I hope to get out long before I look like my best days are behind me...
-
I hope he doesn't do his famous Posing Routine again ::)

No hate no envy I don't roll like that dude.
What i would like to see is somebody (the guys closest to him) give him a reality check and clearly tell him that his current appearance is an embarrasment to himself, family, friends and IFBB.
To that end Kamali has NO business putting his body on a pro bb stage at this time.
thats all.

Reality check. King Kamali is not the worst bb in the IFBB. Maybe you should look around some of these shows. Ken Jones? Come on. You dont roll like that dude? How in the hell does anyone here know how he rolls? Hes not embarassing himself. Ok he looks like shit in a couple of shows. Im no pro bb but dude wake the hell up, pros have bad shows, Darrem Charles wasnt spot on in the Europa and we're not castrating him, Chris Cormier last years O, terrible, Markus Ruhl last year O terrible, so what? Put down the bullshit you're huffing. Hes a pro bb WE are not. Criticize you can do all day, but you dont roll like that dude? Wake the fucking hell up turn off ur screen and look into it for a couple of minutes.

Geez dude get yourself some prozac, ehh.
Look I am not going to try and respond to every example you threw out there. Yes plenty of pros have bad days and bad shows but they realize it and do something about not do the same thing show after show year after year. ken jones ...sure he has no biz being around the pro stage but at least he does not have a gh gut past his chin and does not tell the world he is the next Mr O.
Now breath dude and get yourself something for that temper. Then you can roll with me.

Roll with you? Stick it. You and you're buddy Vince G. go hit the iron and prep for the mountaineer show.

Personalities are really never what they appear to be. I do have more that a bit of insight within the industry of pro bb.
I have got no idea who Vince G is and I really could care less. Mountaineer? Is that your versison of a broke back mountain gay porn movie?
Prozac for this guy too, please

Jocelyn Pelltier(sp) comes to mind when i think of the WORST IFBB pro.

Hey, even ig you put the baest pro bodybuilders in the world togehter on stage, the top 2-3 best are going to make the last 2-3 pros look like garbage, its just how it is, ya know??
One extreme to another...thats all...

Kamali is the worst LEGITIMATE IFBB pro.
Yeah, ok. You sure about that? At least King has gotten top 5 at a handful of shows.

How many pros let you feel up on their biceps and give them hugs for free? King never asks for a dime..

You might be right. I didn't put too much thought into that placing (or any of them really)..... I'll change him and Brian Chamberlain 12th - 25th and from 25th - 12th.
