I was doubting myself on that one because he looks a lot younger than his years. But he has always had a brilliant build. He'd have been a fantastic bodybuilder. He has a look of one of the best bodybuilders from the 80s, Mike Christian.

just to make us feel old, Mike Weaver is 60 in 2012!!

[Old bones Ian]

Its not Jesse at 4.

Purely a guess based on the watermark in the picture - its not the saviour of the devision, Ike Ibeuachi (or however you spell it).

#3 Renaldo Snipes (easy because he's on the previous one)
#6 Marvis Frazier

Agreed on those three - think Frazier and Smith would be gotten by everyone.
