How come when I Googled natural mr.o I found that the winners of recent natural mr.o's were smaller and not in as good condition as Jim Cordova? Is Jim really natural?

You can bet your ass, and he is in a different natural organization than the natural Mr Olympia is, which I think its NANBF ? He is in the WNBF, and WNBF only allows to compete in that organization ONLY
you sure? he's pretty friggen amazing if hes natural.

Well to compete in the WNBF, you have to be 100% drug free for up to seven years. Since hes been competing for OVER 7 years in the WNBF then im sure that assures as he competes yearly, and they polygraph and run a urinalysis test before you step on stage. If you fail then your banned for life.
He works hard, and beleive it or not, he doesnt even weigh 185.
pics??

guys not to be a dick but jim said he started training at 14 and didnt start bodybuilding untill he was 28 years old in 2004. not to mention prohormones were not banned untill 2005... so do the math. hes natural on PAPAER but guys like this are not LIFE TIME drug free. which is fine he plays by the rules but dont think that amount of muscle is grown totaly drug free.

what about all the PH's and such you can sitll buy, even right here on bb.com.

polygraph?
Natural.. :rolleyes:
He only weighs like 165 on stage guys he is natural. But no matter what anyone says a lot of you will just tell yourself "oh looked how jacked he is, he must be on steroids" to make yourself feel better when in actuality this guy just works his ass off + has insane genetics.
All PH's are banned by the WNBF. The WNBF bans many otc supps that you can by here at BB.com.
Jim competes in the mid 160's. He has some amazing muscle bellies and a great structure.
I know this is the wrong section, but it's been beaten to death. Yes, natural pros are natural. Holy sh*t, really, natural pros aren't pathological liars with a strong need to deceive the public, their family, and friends.

No, it's a matter of someone not being able to develop a great physique naturally and if someone looks better than me, well they gotta be on something :rolleyes:
This guy is never ever natural. The people who are claiming he is in this thread, are just people who do not want to get involved with steroids and just say what they wanna hear.. Sorry to break your dreams :)
I get genuinely upset when people think that natural competitors are natural simply because they pass tests. Wake the **** up guys, the ****ing Olympia was drugtested a few years ago and pretty much everyone passed. Yeah, the must all be natural.
Stop being so ****ing naive guys. Do you think that everyone in the Olympics are clean too?
I think we need DD to post those lollipop pictures.
that ripping is unnatural

You people are pathetic, the IFBB section is a scum bag full of ****heads, seriously. You can clal me naive or w/e, but the ****ing WNBF is the most strict organization PERIOD. Jim WEIGHS UNDER ****IGN 170lbs, how is that a juice head for some1 whos been training since he was 24. but I know ill check this in a few days, and a bunch of ***gots will come in here jealous again.
As much as I know that this issue has been beaten to death, it does get very old when people find need to question the authenticity of another guy's claim to be natural. If a guy claims to be natural but looks f'ing phenomenal, by default he MUST be lying about his natural status. This unfortunately is the prevailing view around here. My thought is, we should all focus more on getting our own physiques in order rather than tearing down another guy.
It is usually those who can't or won't put in the hard work and sacrifices that are so quick to question the natural status of another guy who has busted his ass and made the necessary sacrifices for years. Personally, I could care a less who is natural or who isn't...either way, I can still acknowledge their physique and respect the hard work they've put in to achieve the look they have. Ultimately, it is me that I should be focused on. At the end of the day though, I guess the ultimate compliment for a natural competitor is to have his/her natural status questioned by others.

Let the hate consume you....
Looks natural to me.
Natural
My Ass
what people dont realize is the height and weight of this guy, he isnt that big physically but he is ripped at the shows and in these pictures which give the illusion of a bigger frame.

Seriously, hes big and I am impressed with his muscle bellies, but he is not taking illegal substances. A person cannot pass EVERY test they can give out at every show.
Munzer-like conditioning.
