Alexander Forde of Barbados is Mr. Caribbean International 2012

The Mr. Caribbean International competition was held this past weekend at Hedonism II resort in Negril, Jamaica. The competition which is in its 10th year was staged under the theme “Top Guns”

 

Four hundred metre hurdler and fitness specialist, Alexander Forde of Barbados, walked away with the title of Mr. Caribbean International from a field of fabulous men from across the Caribbean

 

It appears as if the masses knew it right from the start. Not only was Forde crowned the overall winner, but he was also voted the favourite in the Peoples’ Choice competition. It’s been said that Forde bears a striking resemblance to legendary Jamaican Olympian, Usain Bolt. Just like Bolt, Forde ensured that he delivered as he won the competition’s rigorous fitness challenge with ease.

Forde flew the Barbadian flag high as he secured the island’s first victory in the 10-year history of the competition. Standing with Forde in the top three were 1st runner-up Andre Walker from Jamaica and 2nd runner-up Nathaniel Goodwin from USA. Walker was also awarded with the prize for Best Physique. Forde walks away with several prizes including $2,500 USD and a 5-night stay at Hedonism II resort.
