Alison's Story
Once upon a time, there was a little boy with a lot of potential. He was neither big nor strong. But one thing was for sure, this boy wanted to do sports. He said: "one day I'm going to get big". He did grow, but not much in length.
His name is Alison Maria.
Alison Maria was born in Curacao "Netherlands Antilles". Since a young age he discovered he had a passion for bodybuilding. So, he started very young training with weights and he liked it. After a few years training in Curacao, he went to live in Holland in 1990. People did not see him as a champion, but just a normal guy who thought he could get far. But after a few years he proved that they were wrong, by winning the 1993 "Holland Openrandstand" beginners class with 187 pound (85 kg) bodyweight 1st place. After his first competition he entered the Holland " Mr.Hercules" placed 4th in lightweight and 1st in juniors class. He didn't care much about that 4th place, cause this was just the beginning of his dream. In 1995 he entered the " Mr. Holland" as a light heavyweight but he took 16th place with 180 pound (82kg) bodyweight. He wasn't very happy about the results, but this gave him more courage to say" I'll be back". In 1997 he entered the " Mr. Holland" again and guess what, he gave an outstanding performance and won the competition. His bodyweight was 185pound(84kg). In the same year he got an opportunity to compete in the N.A.B.B.A Mr. World and brought home a 1st place. He was 189 pound (86kg).
Who is Alison Maria?
I don't know but I sure know that this man never takes a break.
In 1998 he competed in " The Night Of The Dutch Champions" and placed 3rd but this result did not keep him from following his dreams. In this same year he gave the N.A.B.B.A "Mr Universe" a try and placed 4th.His bodyweight was now 194pounds(88Kg). At that point he said " I'm half way my dream". In 1999 he entered the "Night of the Dutch Champions " again but this time he took home the gold. His bodyweight was 216 pounds(98 Kg). The same year he gave all he got again at the N.A.B.B.A. " Mr. Universe" but he placed 6th. In the year 2000 he increased his bodyweight up to 225 pounds (102 Kg), and won the " Night of the Dutch Champions" again . And than he said: " Mr. Universe here I come".
Now the Mr. Universe 2000 1st place belongs to Alison Maria and the trophy is standing where he can see it. At last he could get his Pro card.
U.S.A. watch out for the man that allways comes back.
And so the story ends but not for long?????
