    Franco Colombo

    Franco is a very cool man, this quote is one of the funniest things i've read in awhile, you can just picture him saying it.

    "Like one time I was on the beach here (muscle beach) and a girl was with a guy. She says to him, 'Look. This body. What a nice body this man has.' I says, 'Thank you very much.' And the guy says, 'Ahhhh. It's just weak. Weak muscles.' I went to him and I say, 'Why you say that?' I say 'I'm stronger than you. I can lift something and show you. And I can also do athletic stuff. But you can't do it.' I said, 'Let's go to the platform, I'll show you.' And then he started getting upset. He says, 'Yeah?,' he says, 'I'll beat the **** out of you.' He said it. So I grabbed him by the neck. I said, 'Listen. Never say this again in your life.' So then his girlfriend says, 'Okay. Okay. Now you can leave him alone.'"

    Franco was a very good boxer in Italy before he moved to become a bodybuilder.

    He looks like such a nice, calm person. I would pay to see him lose it on that guy he almost strangled. LOL

    He was a strong mofo indeed.

    I've got some of his earlier books...passed down to me from a guy i know that competed in his era..and subsequently became my first coach (Darcy Beccles)
