Where these results come from. Each contest in the table was recorded from a named source, and for Michael Ely those sources are NPC Contests, MuscleMemory and IFBB Pro League. Open any contest above and that page names its own source and links to it where the source is still reachable. MuscleMemory is the exception: the archive we recorded those older shows from no longer answers at the addresses we hold, so it is credited by name and not offered as a link.
