whatever happened to that guy?
I was just watching the 2004 battle for the olympia, and i was like "where is this guy?" ... he had one of the best physiques i've ever seen! (not one of the enormous guys, but he's amazing!)

The way things are going these days, Smart guy if you ask me.

I used to like richards physique (even used a poster of him as motivation), I hadn't heard he retired tho,that's dissapointing as I new he had taken the years break2bulk up more but that was probly 2-3 years ago. he was also on the "educational dvds" that flex magazine gave2subscribers in the uk. wasn't he a police officer at some point?

He is currently pursuing his higher learning. WIse move indeed. A lot of things can be taking, but what you acquire in terms of knowledge is indeed yours. He can always come back to the stage; get that degree first!

thats awsome!

i liked this guys physique too

i hear so many peeps say "why did he do this? why did he retire, he was a pro, he had so much"

when life calls, you must answer. he can always come back to lifting/competing.

its good to see peeps in his position move onto something other than bodybuilding.

I thought he just took 4th or 5th in one of the pro shows a couple of months ago....im pretty sure though(just look on musculardevelopment.com for contest results)

Agreed! Education first.

when it comes to ANY sport at professional level, education should always be first .... I mean how many athletes who have been amazing in their specialities are now broke because they didn't spare a dime and didnt graduate in anything cause they had to choose between sport and studies ?
