[AnneP 166]

Even if the pro scene is having a lil july-break, the next pro show is around the corner! In 3 weeks, 29th - 30th July Europa Battle of Champions will take place at Hartford. Also the hunt of last Olympia qualification starts!

This show is having men's open class, women's BB and figure.

The competitor lists do not look that impressive, yet.. entry deadline one week before the show though.

What do you think, who takes this?

[AnneP 166]

As they took White, Troy and Levoie back in line up, added Jeff Long and Biggie Smalls with Freeman and JOJ, could this (Troy, White, Levoie) be the TOP 3 like Aceto predicted?
