Darrem Charles redeemed his less-than-stellar performance at the Europa Super Show in early August by showing up tonight in his best shape this year.  Charles, who just recently turned 40, was challenged in the Masters category by a very dominant 42 year old, Toney Freeman, who was coming off 2 pro victories at the Tampa Bay Pro and Europa Super Show.  Freeman showed up tonight with all the mass and symmetry a top IFBB Pro could ask for; however, his glutes lacked the crisp conditioning that he displayed at the Europa.   Darrem, on the other hand, slinked across the stage with feathered quad, cross striated triceps, and dry/crisp glutes.  When the final analysis was made, Freeman's mass and beautiful shape just weren't enough to overcome Charles' conditioning.  Despite that many in attendence  booed at the final decision, Darrem should be commended for recreating himself and securing his 1st win of the 2008 season.

The massive muscled Joel Stubb secured 3rd, Pavol Jablonicky was 4th, and the freak from Spain, Marcos Chacon ,finished 5th.

Vince Taylor won the 50+ age division.


Charles "Charlie Arms" Urrego won the 60+ division.
