Is Kai Greene's tan too dark ?

[tsiparlanaeht]

Silly thread I know.

Is Kai Greene's tan too dark ? I almost feel with the crappy lighting at most shows his striations/lines remained hidden thus affecting him from showing off every inch of his genetically blessed striated physique.

Imagine IronmanPro lighting on Kai!!!

Example him in good lighting-






But sometimes there is dark spots on a stage or the light doesnt hit the bodybuilder right and I feel sometimes you can't see all his striations.
Same reason I hate dark tans/ dark red tans; example see Jay Cutler Pre 2009



Cool pic just for fun.

I was thinking the same thing when I seen him under the O lighting, but I notice a guys tend to use a darker coloring at the Olympia

btw is it just me or does Kai seem a bit different without his usual red trunks?

[d16daily]

are you aware kai is black?

[tsiparlanaeht]

are you aware kai is black?

What....say it isnt so....

[m4ttarama]

are you aware kai is black?

Inb4 you think black bbers dont use coloring creams

[BartPimpson]

I don't like the lighting at the Olympia. I'm having to squint to see these guys' conditioning, and that's just not right.

[Exezy]

wow.. what a monster

[tsiparlanaeht]

Kai would look CRAZY under Ironman pro lighting, fuark imagine 09 Aus Kai....if only

[Txhorns23]

he is not black. He is Dominican(latino)

[Txhorns23]

He's Dominican you fool haha! anyone can have high calves..Not hating really just saying. If you're going to call someone out on something..you should do your research first. I figured his accent would give a little something away too

[Vinltd]

he is not black. He is Dominican(latino)

this. lol at thinking he's black

[spamy]

Kai's colour makes him even more similar to a mini-Ronnie.

I am almost 100% certain he is black. You can be black and be born, or live in the dominican. There are people of all races in each country around the world. Look at his sister


or the shape of his nose, or the texture of his hair and facial hair



anyway, its irrelevant, because the point still remains - Darker skinned bbers still use tanning creams

[Gorky88]

Dude of course they do but I really don't get what the hell you are talking about. The guy is from Dominican Republic. His name is Victor Martinez. He is not black.

[BigBoLuke93]

What about these?

Whenever I search for Kai Greene contest pics I always come across these

[zivg86]

wow.. what a monster

If Kai would have walk out on stage looking like that, we had diffrent MR.O today

[spamy]

In b4 people saying that all Latins are black.

[m4ttarama]

In b4 people saying that all Latins are black.

There is almost a million (990k) people that are pure black, not mixed, in the dominican republic. I have black cousins who were born there, fathered by my black uncle when he moved there, birthed by a black woman. They live in the dominican republic, have accents, and I'm pretty sure they're still black. Again, just look at his nose structure and the texture of his hair, it's something unique to black people.

[Txhorns23]

lol you're right. It is irrelevant to this thread. And yes "dark skinned" bodybuilders do tan and using tanning skin creams and what not..to even all of their skin color out. I'm done arguing about it after this though. Do you not watch Baseball? Do you not see how many dark skinned individuals that look black but are actually of Dominican/puerto rican descent? try looking up Papi Ortiz, Sammy Sosa, Willy Taveras, Vladimir Guerrero, Robinson Cano, Albert Pujols, Luis Castillo...and then tell me what you think. I do agree that Kai's tan is too dark though lol.

Bro, when someone is from Dominican Republic most likely they would be called latino or hispanic etc. No need for trying so hard to prove a point. last time i saw this in IFBB section Supercows was trying to say Phil could not be black.

If Victor is black so be it, I don't really care

Yeah man I'm done trying lol this guy just doesn't understand. I'm pretty sure they said something about phil heath not being black because of his eyes right? haha.

You're right, maybe it's like in Phil's case, he is a black guy that has some unique features.

LOL no, he just consistently fukcs up his conditioning. Deal with it & stop looking for excuses.


Strong thread derailment btw.

You fuking muppet, it's got nothing to do with conditioning what I am referring to.

I don't have to deal with **** son and How am I looking for excuses when I support Phil ?

Maybe just MAYBE I love bodybuilding and I want to see Kai show up with the best physique he can and showcase it to the best of his ability.

I wish the same for Dennis Wolf to sort out his running tan issues you fukn piss flap.

[Boba_Bulk]

Yeah lighting and more so backdrop. If you could catch this same Kai with the dark background, and put him in with the light one Vic is in front of, he would looked incredible.

Dominican is a nationality, not a skin colour you idiot. Apparently 75% of the Dominican Republic is mixed race.

[HopefulFuture]

the only non black guy too have a good tan is phil heath

[Zeneth]

Dude of course they do but I really don't get what the hell you are talking about. The guy is from Dominican Republic. His name is Victor Martinez. He is not black.

Strong ignorance.
