Day 21: Baitollah Abbaspour


33 year old Baitollah Abbaspour from Karaj, Iran, took to the pro stage in 2012, even making it to the Olympia stage.


He finished third at the European Pro (below), and fourth at both the FIBO Power and the 2012 Nordic Pro. He didn't place in his Olympia debut.



In the clip below he is 12 hours out from the 2012 Nordic Pro and below that before the Worlds back in 2008. Looks pretty different!





Day 15: Gerald Pangan




One of my personal favorite Sunday Worships from last year, was the middleweight (85kg) champion at the this year's Mr. Olympia Amateurs in Kuwait at the end of November, 5'5" Gerald Pangan from the Philippines.
