2012 IFBB Los Angeles Grand Prix Bikini Championships This Weekend

It’s shaping up to be a battle on the IFBB Bikini stage this weekend, as a few big names will take the stage at the IFBB Los Angeles Grand Prix this Saturday.

Two of the biggest names, Amanda Latona and Dianna Dahlgren, haven’t competed against each other since the 2010 Olympia – when Latona finished 4th to Dahlgren’s 7th.

Latona hasn’t competed since November, when she capped a great year with her third win of the season – and fourth of her career – at the Sacramento Pro.

Dahlgren, meanwhile, continues to struggle with consistency. She looked her all-time best when placing third at the 2011 Olympia, but recently finished a disappointing 5th at the Toronto Pro against a mediocre lineup.

Two other competitors – Narmin Assria and Dayna Maleton – will look to add their Olympia Qualification Series standings, if not gain a qualification outright with a win. Assria currently ranks third in the standings with nine points, one point behind 2nd-place Yeshaira Robles and four points behind standings leader Jennifer Chapman. Maleton, who sits at No. 5 with four points, is coming off back-to-back fourth-place finishes at the Toronto Pro and the Greater Gulf States.
