Ironman Pro Invitational

The Ironman Pro Invitational was an IFBB bodybuilding contest held every year. It began in 1990 and was considered one of the top professional bodybuilding events, with the top five finalists qualifying for the Mr. Olympia contest.

The 2010 contest was "postponed," and since 2009 the contest hasn't been held again.[1]
