Guys, we dont need to know half of those guys…. We just need to know Andy Dinetta… he is the man!
Seriously, i would bet on Gustavo, but as usual my hart is with Priest, Henry, Haidar, Dugdale, Dim and Charles
PS: What happened with Atwood?

Gustavo is the defending champ and if he comes in like he did for the O, he should win it again.
Without Jocelyn Pelletier or Ken Jones ;D the rest of the places are up for grabs. Lee Priest should be up there, and I'm rooting for Henry and Dugdale. Dave Henry won the O wild card and is on a roll right now. And any time Haidar and Charles compete they are threats.
Would love to see Toney Freeman and Charlie Duca do well. Both are great guys and have not yet fulfilled their pro potential.
Hope Art is OK. Not sure why he would have withdrawn.

In the IFBB pro and natural are contradictory terms. I have respect for all the athletes go through, but I agree with Tim that the biggest gut shouldn't win shows.
But as long as tickets and magazines are selling, c'est la vie.

All I can say is that I just saw a pic of Toney Freeman weighing 299 lbs at 5.5 % body fat, with a tiny little waist. If he stays around 290 for this show it could ve lights out for everyone!! Wow!!

No offense Eric, but every year I see you come online to hype Toney up. But never any pics!!!  I like Toney's lines and physique, I wish the best to him and hope he puts it together. But dammit Eric, post some pics already!!! ;D |

Toney is a tall guy, and I also like him. Would like to see him shake things up and come in full and at his best.
BTW, Art Atwood is OK. He withdrew because of several business commitments and he felt he would not be at his best for the show.

Without Badell, Mark and David should be in top 5. Martin Kjellstrom may have an outside shot at top 10. www.martinkjellstrom.com |

I agree with Mark and David, but then you talk about Martin who is the complete opposite of those two? Here's a very unimpressive pic from his site, and I do realize it's a guest posing so he's very offseason. But I can't describe this as anything except a perfect example of the sad state of affairs our BBing "sport" is in today....  |
