One of Guyana’s most consistent performers on the bodybuilding stage, Devon Davis of the Guyana Defence Force Gym made himself and country proud once again when he won the Flyweight (Under 132lbs) division at the 42nd Central American and Caribbean Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation Championships which took place over the weekend (October 4-5) in Saint Marten.
