well done to steph,Geoff, liam and billy.

do we think this new pro division should worry the ifbb then ?

**LeeB** · 17-09-2006, 04:30 PM

personally, until it gets much more coverage i dont think it will....

the atheletes competing are fantastic bodybuilders in their own right... but apart from lee priest none of them have had very much media exposure... its the media that makes the top bodybuilders as successful as what they are...

does anyone know if lee priest is going to attempt to compete in the olympia??

I don't mean to be disrespectfull to anyone who entered the show but many of these guys would not win their class at the NABBA Uni. All are good bodybuilders but compared to the top 30 IFBB Pro's they aren't going to be in the running.

I think Steph Sinton has the potential to cut it in any IFBB Pro event, his only problem is time is against him as he is now in his early 40's. He has some momentum going just now but due to his age will he be able to keep it going long enough to make any serious headway?

I'm surprised Geoff Hargreaves placed so high, I've not seen him on stage for a couple of years and I do like his physique but I would have thought him a little out his depth.

I'm also surprised Billy Bourne placed so low, that guy is a complete package in my opinion. I'm also surprised Liam Stewart beat him.

Well done to them all, Bodybuilding.com reported only 61 spectators attended.

thanks malika...

i know the pics werent great.. and i havent looked at all of them... but i dont think ronnie coleman will be worried.. lol

im not knocking any of the athletes in the PDI... but as has been said... for this to be the PDI flagship contest.. the athletes are a mile away from the IFBB!!

even lee priest didnt look as tight as he done in recent IFBB shows???

hopefully the UK show will show a better calibre of competitor??

***Extreme*** · 18-09-2006, 04:16 PM

The people at American Media (or whoever owns Weider now) must be having a right giggle over this, it does not appear to be any threat to the IFBB at all and will take a truck load of work and money to ever make it into one.

**LeeB** · 19-09-2006, 12:47 PM

hopefully joe weider isnt laughing too hard... i dont think his heart could take it...

Malika · 19-09-2006, 02:54 PM

I think some of the costumes were a bit of a farce...

***Extreme*** · 22-09-2006, 01:07 AM

It doesn't do much to inspire people to go to the London NOC. I had intended to go but think I'll stay home and play with my car!

Malika · 22-09-2006, 09:14 AM

Same here...

Dave & myself considered it but will give it a miss...

Anyway, we all know it's going to be Lee Priest show again
