Sas Herati placing 5th WTF ?

[davidcua]

Can somebody explain to me How a guy with that flaw, MASS and CONDITION can place 5th in the Chicago pro this week end ? I had him 2nd after Dallas McCarver 1st. How would you rationalize Curry and Lockett beating him ?

For those who did not see the show here is a picture of the Back Lat spread.

The only explanation I had is : The guy name is not as known as Curry and Lockett and hasn't that big sponsors. If that's the reason, well a bodybuilding show should be judge upon the look/physical package you brought on stage not on notoriety and popularity…

Branch has been beating much better guys forever so no one gets shocked anymore. Nothing this year will equal the farce that was Branch being placed ahead of Max Charles at the Arnold.

Agreed. I had Sas ahead of Curry, his conditioning was great. He needed a darker tan is all but that's it.

I also get a chuckle out of Aceto dubbing him PP2 (Persian Power 2),... Arash Rahbar being PP1.

You got these two points right. However it's still bothering me… :/

Curt and on stage he was SHREDDED. Makes some of the other Top 6 to Top 2 look fat.

looks kinda undermuscled in that pick....didn't see the contest

Could've placed 2nd & nobody would've blinked. Says a lot for his first pro show! He will be very dangerous!

I had him beating Lockett.

I had him beating Lockett.

Just about everyone that has commented (on all the sites ) had 3,4 and 5 beating Lockett.

No Lockett could have been 3rd. I don't see Akim beating him in the condition he was (7 to 8 weeks out) nor do I see Brandon Curry beating Lockett this night. They weren't in great shape (Lockett neither), that's why I saw : 1st Dallas, 2nd Sas, 3rd Lockett, 4th Curry. It would have been fair IMO.

He got overlooked, wish I gave him more props than I did in my contest review...
Maybe doesn't have the total mass of Dallas, but he's very large none-the-less, and looks great. I really like his detail / flow / condition (some of the best at that show) / size
