The Real Deal on IFBB Judging

I dunno wolfie.  My first show the head judge told all the girls "we aren't looking for muscle here, don't be up there flexing cuz we aren't looking for that".  Majority of the girls went on stage trying to make themselves look "softer" and who ends up winning not only my class but the whole show?  The one girl who was up there standing hard and flexed.  The following show (2 months later, same place...almost all the same judges) not a word was said about looking for muscle or not looking for muscle.  No that I was in my best shape (cuz I know I wasn't) but I definitely was up there standing hard and flexed (because that's what they chose for the look 2 months prior) and what do they pic?  A beach bunny girl.  Someone who looked like she never stepped in a gym and just had a nice body.  All the bottom girls...myself included were harder.   I went to get my scores and was told by the head judge that I was too big and my structure would be better suited in bbing. (Which is what I am now doing)

What gives? 

Here's the bottom line. Many judges are so confused where women are concerned that they find it almost impossible to evaluate and place the women.I know I had a hard time myself and I came with alot of experience.

Yes it just happens YOU ONLY pay attention to the things that do  amd if you think Yates should have lost in 1995 you haven't the slightest comprehension of competitive bodybuilding .

i take that as a no.

lonewolf,
I'm just curious.  How many, if any, of the judges that you worked with were gay?  Be honest.  However, I would understand if you didn't want to comment.

I really have to tell you, and you may not believe me, but if I knew a contest was being fixed or was fixed , I would have raised holy hell and wouldn't have cared if I was thrown out on my ass.

I believe you, but it would not have gotten you anywhere or resolved any thing.

Exactly the reason why you don't know anything about this stuff.  You're not the type of person they want to keep in the loop.  Too honest.  What a remarkably repulsive character trait!

As interesting as it is to have you posting I think that most are quickly going to come to the realisation that you're not going to provide the smoking gun they are hoping for.  I hope that at some stage we can convince you to actually put forth your opinion on show placings that you were not present for.

I don't know about that . I was there for 25 years. I got to know everyone that there was to know. I'm certainly not saying I liked everyone. Some people were great others were quite self centered. I woiuld be glad to give you my opinion on some show placings if I feel  I could give you an honest assessment.
