William Long cosplays Vegeta at LA Comic Con.\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re a fan of cosplay, more specifically Dragon Ball Z<\/em>, and you also happen to be a crazed bodybuilding fan or at least of lifting heavy things (which likely you are if you\u2019re reading this). You\u2019re going to love <\/span>William Long\u2019s<\/b> AKA \u201cThe OG\u201d outfit at the Los Angeles Comic Con that took place over the weekend from December 3, 2021 \u2013 to December 5, 2021. William Long depicted none other than Vegeta while cosplaying. Long stated on Instagram (IG):<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThough brief, it was a fun time at <\/span>@comicconla<\/span><\/a> with the family <\/span>@calichica951<\/span><\/a>. I do enjoy cosplaying and wish I could do it more often and as well as <\/span>@sd_cosplayfit<\/span><\/a>and <\/span>@glee702<\/span><\/a> do. Glad we were able to meet up with them along with <\/span>@gi.janedoe<\/span><\/a> . I got to meet Thee voice of Bruce Wayne\/Batman, <\/span>@kevinconroypage.\u201d<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Long continues to say, \u201cDefinitely going to up my cos0lay [sic]<\/em> game for the next con. There will be no greater Vegeta than me. I am The Prince of all Saiyans, Prince Vegeta. Also, will someone acknowledge my quads?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

There will likely be no better Vegeta than Wiliam Long (or one with bigger quads at least) at the next LA Comic Con, but will there be a challenger around at the following <\/span>Natural Olympia<\/span><\/a> \u2013 the GOAT of natural bodybuilding competitions \u2013 perhaps Goku?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

*Note: You can see next year\u2019s initial International Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA)\/ Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association (PNBA) 2022 schedule here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Aside from cosplaying your favorite anime characters, William Long has a compelling natural bodybuilding resume. He\u2019s the reigning 3x champ of the Men\u2019s Physique division at Natural Olympia. Not to mention, he\u2019s a natural bodybuilding Hall of Fame Inductee. They don\u2019t call him \u201cThe OG\u201d for nothing. His nickname sprout to life after being the first PNBA Men\u2019s Physique Natural Olympia champion.\u00a0<\/span>In 2017, he made history again by being the first to win a whopping $10,000 cash prize at the 2017 Natural Olympia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After seeing his Vegeta depiction, any competitor that stands a chance at overthrowing this behemoth is going to need to match Goku\u2019s power level (yes, over 9,000!).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
