Jose Raymond - A true legacy in bodybuilding.

[The Ultimate Warrior]

A tenacious trainer in the gym as well!

Better than Kevin English? What about Correa? I agree he is a great guy but there's some competition in the 202's. And what if Priest tosses his hat in the ring? I'd say Jose is in the top 5 in the 202's.

Chris Aceto and Eduardo have both stated he will be in the open as of next year making this year's 202 Showdown his last contest at that weight.
Flex Lewis is also taking a year off and his trainer Neil Hill stated he would like to see Flex improve and add some quality muscle to put him in the open class.
Kevin English states he is much better at a higher weight and gets up to 265lbs in the off season so he should be moving on to the open pretty soon as well, if he is that confident his best package is at a higher weight.
Lee Priest will be competing again in the 202, but without a doubt I would say Jose is in the top of that category. Jose is still growing into the weight class and now has George Farah helping him out.

Jose, wish you the best and much continued success.

With Correa and English moving on to the Open, were going to see some very interesting 202 lineups. Jose Raymond seems like a class act, I wish him the best in the future.

Jose Raymond is a true legacy in bodybuilding. Some interesting facts you may not have known about how awesome Jose is include:
-Jose Raymond's family crest is a picture of a barracuda, eating Neil Armstrong.
-Jose would use his own thigh as an anvil.
-Like an alligator he can fully digest a turtle shell.
-He framed Roger Rabbit.
-Did I ever tell you about the time Jose and I went horseback riding, but there weren't any horses around? Anyway, Jose throws a saddle on my back and rides me around Wyoming for three days. Well, wouldn't ya know it, my stamina increased with each day, and I develop tremendous leg muscles. So anyway, Jose decides to enter me into the Breeders Cup under the name Turkish Delight. And I'm running in second place, and I'm running, and I break my ankle. So anyway, they're about to shoot me. Then someone from the crowd yells out, God bless him, "Don't shoot him, hes a human."
