MIKE FRANCOIS
Few bodybuilders have stormed into the pro ranks with the ferocity with which Mike Francois did in the mid-1990s. After winning the 1993 NPC Nationals, the-then 28-year-old Francois won the first four professional contests of his career, including a win in his debut at the Arnold Classic in 1995. Nearly 15 years later, Francois' win streak still stands as the benchmark for wins to start a professional career, as he and Flex Wheeler remain the only men to have accomplished the feat.
As fate would have it, however, those four wins - capped off with a win at the San Jose Pro one week after the 199u5 Arnold Classic - would be the only win streak of Francois' career, as a case of colitis cut short a promising competitive career, which ended at the 1997 Mr. Olympia.
Edit: It's sad that he had to face colitis. He did his best , had a good size , could come in condition... but due to the circumstances , the potential got wasted.Last edited by AdamantiumYoke; 10-21-2014 at 08:25 AM.

It depends how you define wasted potential. If you define it as pros who don't hit their 100% often enough to place their best, I'd say something like currently:
Kai: needs to come 100%
Cedric: needs to come in 100%
Beyeke: needs to come in 100%
Roelly: still chasing that perfect showing
Huh: had Top 3 at the O potential but doesn't take advantage of it
Antoine: because antoine.
Victor: too many mishaps. Wasted potential
Curry: doesn't care enoughMS, Computer Science

Good thread OP...
I think thet the title belong to VICTOR RICHARDS...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq7p9ttcjN8
Victor stacked a purported 300 plus pounds on his 5’9” frame.
The history of bodybuilding is littered with the debris of unfulfilled potential, of forlorn tales of what might have been. In discussing unfulfilled potential the field is often confined to outstanding amateurs, such as Rory Leidelmeyer, Matt Mendenhall, Edgar Fletcher and Gunnar Rosbo, who never made it to the pros. But the ultimate untapped potential award may go to a guy who did win his pro card but never used it. Take a bow, Mr. Victor Richards.
He first burst onto the scene in 1987 through the pages of Muscle & Fitness when Editor Jeff Everson presented him as the biggest ever bodybuilder, carrying around 300 pounds on his 5’9” frame –which was unheard of at that time. His thighs were purported to be 34”. He was said to be 21 years old. (Like many aspects of Victor's life, mystery surrounds his birth date. In 1994 he told me he was born in 1966, while other references have him being born in 1964 or 1967.) His strength was said to be phenomenal. Over the years he has cited an ability to use 550 pounds on the incline bench and over 600 pounds when flat benching. He also said, “I can do 200 pounds on dumbbell press. I’ve done shoulder presses in the range of 450 pounds; squatted nearly 900 pounds, and I’ve done barbell curls up to 315 pounds. And I never liked using a belt or knee wraps.”
