Mike Liberatore was in the very first Bros V Pros against JTP with the curl. Jeff beat him and took home the $$

14 pullups for Angela Pearson

**SallyAnne** · 03-18-2012, 02:16 PM

Lisa Zissa, no reps. Gail Auerbach with 14. She seemed unhappy that she didn't get more.

iv just been watching bros v pros x factor + was amazed that mike liberatore would think that it was ok to do quarter-reps! you guys/judges got IT RIGHT when he was given 13-reps,as the vast majority of his reps were only QUARTER-REPS! the problem was he could'nt hear everyone trying to tell him with his headphones blasting into his ears,however he must have heard/known that previous contestants were spicificaly being told that they MUST EXTEND their arms at the top. mike can have no reason to complain,he knew the rules. im a big mike liberatore fan,so its a shame he is unhappy about this-in my oppinion,having just watched his lift,he has no grounds for complaint.

I'm sure Mike will come up with an excuse like having short arms or something like that.

I knew Mike would do limited ROM reps since the wrap up vid with Palumbo, I hope the rules were clear!

Liberatore participated while other IFBB Pros passed on the opportunity. Kudos to Big Mike.

At least he put in some effort, unlike Toney Freeman.

mike and i spoke and its all good. he arrived late and did not get the official rules per me... I should have told him ahead of time, and he should have asked.

all is good in da hood. look for mike to blow everyone away with a future bench bros vs pros...

**nigster** · 03-19-2012, 09:09 AM

So why didn't Toney participate after all?

**rynohog** · 03-19-2012, 02:01 PM

thx again to everyone...had a great time and hope to make another one in the future.

**rynohog** · 03-19-2012, 02:01 PM

he got 13

**Bryan Hildebrand** · 03-19-2012, 03:13 PM

he stopped at 13 knowing he wasnt going to win.

toney is a really good guy. super laid back, talkative with fans. posed for countless photos with kids and families.

he is a perfect representation of what bodybuilders should behave like.

and he is older than dave and I...!
