Hi my friend,
Thank you for your kind word.I am pioneer of the movement of bodybuilding from 1970 up to 1984 in Spain,I resigned.I put as President (Mr.Santonja), who played dirty with me,as Weuder he only wants money.-.What,s papppens with Weider....Why are they "out"?.
I have no economic power,but yes much esperience and honesty.If commercial interests and Federation are mixed,as Weider....¡bad matter¡¡.
OK.Mr.Santonja is not ideal person to be World President of the IFBB.I am out.To work into bodybuilding I need support and I have no money.A federation needs money to cover travels, stamps, phones expenses,an office,etc.Only with support I could work without stress,because I want to be relaxed,as Hobby and among good friend,I am happy.My life was in the past ..¡¡¡¡bodybuilding¡¡¡What,s happening with my very old friend-pleasant gentleman-Paul Chua from Singapore.Many laughs with him on women,to conquer women out of Spain,jokes,etc.Really, ladies conquer man not the men¡¡¡.ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,¡¡¡
I have just came back from the sight seeing gfrom Valencia province.I am going for an smal dinner,later relax listening musique in the karaoke-discotheque,fever of Saturdays, night...ha,ha,ha,¡¡¡
I thought you can send me separate e mail,new in your computer photos of your best fitness men and the more beatifull women of your country in order to print it.
Your schedule should be sent also by separate email,schedule of event to organise by you and your Executive.OK??.
I wait your soon and kind news.
Please accept my cordial greetings,
Prof.Jose Pardo Hidalgo,Ph.D.
P.S. I worked a lot of years and hours to have a clean sport and not the rubbish and commerce many persons as Weider are doing in the past even now,as Mr.SantonjaWhen I remeber it I am very upset.I lost my time,bodybuilders in Spain wants prize money in order...to buy stroids¡¡.Even, many bodybuilders, regardless of foods,they spend 1000 Euros per mionth before competition...terrible¡¡.
Interesting!
I respect this old man. He devoted many years to bodybuilding. He was somehow a naive romantic. But IFBB have chosen money first!
The Spanish guy speaks right. Money is also important!
It is impossible to develop a strong federation with no money in the pocket.
Yes. But what comes first: money or sport?
Sport without money is a dead thing.
