Description
2001 Iron Man Pro Invitational
Held in the superb Redondo Beach Performing Arts Centre before a sell-out crowd, this famous Pro Show kicked off the season with 24 fantastic competitors.
It was a 3-peat victory for “The Real Deal” Chris Cormier, in the best condition of his life. In second place was the posing maestro “Marvellous” Melvin Anthony and in third place, newcomer “King” Kamali. The King also performed a wonderful routine that brought the house down.
Anthony and Kamali have now qualified for their first Mr. Olympia later this year.
This DVD includes key comparisons from the Prejudging; posing by all 24 competitors, the complete posing routines of the top 10; top 5 pose-down, awards and impromptu posing by JAY CUTLER.

The Lifetime Achievement Award went to ARMAND TANNY.
The Artie Zeller Award went to GENE MOZEE.
