I really really REALLY hope he can bring a sick package and take top 3 or top 5, but something tells me he won't be in shape and with sub-par legs and be like... 10th out of 15 competitors or something.

I hope so too. I just hope he isn't so used to being BIG (and fat) that he doesn't come in ripped.

I love the guy, love that he actually posts so much stuff for the fans to see, but honestly, I doubt he will come in conditioned enough. It will be interesting to see him next to Vic and others to get a sense of where he is at.

I really hope ZKK can bring something big, I've been a fan since I started following BB. It'd be great to see him keep bringing those legs back up. Is it just me or does it seem like his chest gets overshadowed a bit in some shots?

is it confirmed? i thought he said he'd do the prep and then let his fans decide if he competes or not. (seems like a way to cop out at the end)Originally Posted by Loctus

I hope he can bring the conditioning....though back in his amateur days he was always a bit hit and miss with that. I hope he can bring the A game though come NY time.

that would probably be quite an accomplishment considering what he's been through. He can build on that.Originally Posted by Loctus

Hope he nails it and lands a top 5 placing. The dude has come back from a possible career ending injury, he deserves some good fortune.

Regardless of how he places, its amazing he is on stage again. I would like to see any hater out there sustain his injury and be back on stage ...hell, back walking for that matter!

Tell me, and be honest. 3 years ago, which would have sounded crazier?

Well, I know I'd pick option 2, and considering it actually occurred, I think I'll wait until the guys actually step on stage before making absolute claims.Bench: 215x12 (17/12/2011) PR since torn RC

I see what you are saying, I just feel though like Zach, given his legs, can't do well against people like Victor or the Arabic guy^^^ if they all come on.Originally Posted by DavisForman
Plus judging from the above pictures I think his back is lagging too, but probably it's just a matter of fat/water.
