He can place well, maybe an arnould depending on the field...........but there are too many top guys at Mr. O for him to win it all.
sorry to rain on everyones hopefully good story parade..........I had to come to grips with the fact Wolf will never be Mr. O...........martinez fans will eventually come to grips also.
Thanks for the scans!
I sadly agree with Shawn Ray though....
As much as I love Victor (he's one of my favs) I can't help but think he is 40 y.o. with recent health issues who has to face amazing athletes in their late 20's like Beyeke, Centopani, MacMillian and some others, not to talk of current top 3 like Heath, Greene and Rhoden.
IMHO he is done, meaning he cannot aspire to the Olympia nor the Arnold anymore.
Still much love for the guy, he's a real warrior.

LOL at the Branch Warren comment "He's someone we all have to watch out for"
Warren is saying it as if he (Branch) is one of the top guys??? No need to watch out for Vic, he has gone past you already! Branch will still be looking for Vic in his rear view mirror when Vic has finished the race already.
When I saw that Mag I knew someone would scan the pics
They're ridiculous tho. I even took some pics of the pics with my phone and sent it to a mate.
There's some other nuts ones in that magazine, one of Shawn Ray and a few of Cedric McMillan. All insane pics. And not sure if it was this months MD or Flex but there was an epic pic of Sergio Oliva too. I think it was Flex...
For epic bodybuilding content check out iceman's blog: http://www.legendsofbodybuilding.com
And then get on his back about posting more :P
Doesn't matter where you start, it matters where you finish.
Don't blame genetics, the difference is hard work.

Branch, YOU are done!
I think Branch has every right to say that, as a top 6 Olympia athlete and current Arnold champion. Can't say I'm a fan of Branch whatsoever, but he's still considered by the judges to be up there.
Great picture of the GOAT. He looks baked as fuark
he certainly does hahah ... guys how old is victor? the pros seem to have huge faith that he could come back and beat the likes of phil heath , kai greene .. victor has a better physique than both of them IMO , can he bring it back? lets wait and see
thanks for posting bro. i will never do deads like that. i'v seen and heard about too many people tearing their biceps. saw it happen one of the first times i went to the gym; it was pretty awful.

i think the issue your talking about is the new march issue of MD. peter mcGough has an article about arnold's and sergio's epic battles. it's really good; i would recommend it to everyone.

I think Victor should work with someone like Farah, because i think its all about him getting super hard/dry. He have the size and shape to beat both Kai and Phil imo, even in 2007 he was not in perfect condition.
Location: Scotland, United Kingdom (Great Britain)
Age: 22
Stats: 6'2", 214 lbs
Posts: 7,564
Rep Power: 2861
It's a shame he'll never get back to the shape he was in pre-injury, he was such a freak.
Edit: People getting butthurt because of my comment. He won't ever get into good enough shape to compete with the likes of Rhoden, Mcmillan, Kai, Heath. I think he's pretty much done.
