It's not the sport that I find unattractive, it's the large bulk muscle. Any guy, whether a bodybuilder or not, with that kind of large bulk muscle, I'm not attracted to it. Sorry if it hurts your feelings, but it's how I feel.

But I'll go through your list, just to make you feel better, and pull out the other sports athletes whose muscle mass I find too large to be attractive.

- Boxers (not all, but the really big ones I'm not attracted to)
- Why would anybody be attracted to someone who does dog fighting?
- American Football. There are a few body types for these. The muscley ones, I don't go for.
- Weightlifting.
- Wrestling (not college style, but the kind on tv - they're too big to me)

It's not "bodybuilders" I find unattractive. It's a body-type.

DON'T put words in my mouth, and claim them to be my opinion.

Half the sports on your list I'd never even heard of before, and some of them, like billiards, aren't something I would consider a sport where physical ability is as important say mathematics, angles, and physics.

Yeah. Tony, you seriously consider DOG FIGHTING a "sport?"

WTF? Did you do 'roids or something? Did they go to your head?

I think you've proven that you're quite capable of being big and dumb without a weight set.

As I said, not all of them. Saw your photo. You're still in (Kermo and I agreed on that one I believe haha).

I saw a lot of guys come and go from my boxing gym. After a while you got good at picking out the ones that would stick around. The body builders and hockey guys, the ones there to round out their tough guy resume, never lasted. It got to the point where I became resentful of these wastes of space, and declined to spar with them when my coaches asked.

I've always thought that insecurity was one of the primary motivators for bodybuilding. Listen to the voice over on that video. "You spent a lot of time full of hate...." Christ.

It makes a lot of sense that Tony Balony/Dulouz is a bodybuilder.

And you girls are my favourites too especially you SS , but I'm really tall and broad shouldered which you need to be when you do the door of 'The Cracked Skull' pub and restraunt. (Name chnaged to protect their guilty asses)

I'm not like Schwartzenger (sp) but I'm built like an all black rugby forward!

You don't think it was an off centre attempt by Balony to romance the delightful SS by trying to impress her with his physical prowess?

Does anyone know what 'korfball' is? Laughing

The most attractive athletes are those who play Jai-Alai and Tug-of-War. Maybe at the same time.

You are right, bodybuilders with a low bodyfat % and large muscularity would tire very quickly in sparring. Muscle needs oxygen to live and the bigger muscle it is the more oxygen (stamina) it requires.

I don't know if you remember the British heavyweight Frank Bruno (my childhood hero along with Nelson Mandela) he would be the business for about 4 rounds but his huge muscular arms would weigh him down and
he would get caught by lesser opposition which would get him into trouble
and he would be bollxed after 7 rounds even though he was in better physical condition than the other guy.

As for sparring and the like, if anyone wanted to put the gloves on with me in my boxing days then we had a move round.
