King Kamali posing routine

This guy puts on one of the BEST posing routines I have ever seen! Besides Ed Corney, his routine is outstanding. I loved the terminator/cyborg theme he did.

Anyone know where I can get a copy of it, especially from Saturday nights' Night of the Champions show?

Isn't he the one that kinda dances all weird?? I have pics of him in the last M & F mag I bought... he looks like he'd be damned fun to watch on stage.

Well, he stole the terminater gig from Vince Taylor. He does a lot of moving in his routines, but he doesn't hit his poses well (IMHO). Ed Corney was a fantastic poser who moved fluently from pose to pose. (Frank Zane, Bob Paris, yada yada yada) Kamali just seems to do a lot of dancing to me. (again, only my preference.)

Okay, you're right. I wrote a quick post and didn't realize I was comparing apples to oranges. Ed Corney is hands down the best poser of all time, yes, very fluent transitions and excellent posing.

Kamali doesn't exactly "dance", but what I liked was his rendition of a cyborg. The crowd definitely ate it up. Did he hit his poses well? Now that I look back at it, not great, but I think he did pretty good. Did he deserve 4th and Titus 3rd? Hmmmm...........

The posedown going into the audience was OFF THE HOOK!!!!!!!!

Posing, like physique types is a matter of individual taste. Some love his style, others hate it. That's why there is so much controversy in judging physique shows. It is the ultimate subjective sport/event.
