Biography
Stubbs first started studying bodybuilding on his own at age 29 in 1996. In 2000, he competed in the NPC (National Physique Committee) where he placed first. It was not until 2003 when he received his first IFBB pro card during the Central American and Caribbean championships. Stubbs is an airline pilot for Bahamasair, but does not fly much any more due to the time he spends competing in the IFBB pro-circuit.
Stubbs' most impressive feature is the size of his upper body, notably his incredibly large back. Stubbs however, has underdeveloped legs, due to an injury sustained to his knee during a basketball game. Stubbs is promoted in some advertisements as the Worlds Biggest Bodybuilder.

Famous quotes containing the word biography:
“A biography is like a handshake down the years, that can become an arm-wrestle.”
—Richard Holmes (b. 1945)
“As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The death of Irving, which at any other time would have attracted universal attention, having occurred while these things were transpiring, went almost unobserved. I shall have to read of it in the biography of authors.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
