Enthusiasts draw a comparison between Harding’s and Kai Greene’s career
While slamming Brandon Harding’s past involvement with OnlyFans, fans drew parallels between him and Kai Greene, “Isn’t this the dude that had an OnlyFans page? Lol fu**ng embarrassing he’ll get the kai Greene treatment and get shunned by the IFBB even if he was that good (which he isn’t).” Fans suggested that he might face negative consequences from the bodybuilding community, similar to how Kai Greene was treated. A few expressed a negative opinion about Harding’s future prospects in bodybuilding, “Going nowhere. Onlyfans killed his reputation – worse than a grapefruit killing Kai Green’s reputation.”
It’s not just his OnlyFans appearance that drew the attention of fans. Some had things to say about his physique and attire as well. “Maybe someone can send him a pair of posing trunks for his next check-ins,” wrote an Instagram user. Another humorously mentioned, “High-waisted underwear lmao.”

While a few complimented Harding’s physique, they criticized his lack of muscle density in the upper body, writing, “It’s weird, his structure is absolutely top tier. But it’s like he doesn’t have the density in his top half that’s needed at a pro level.” Some suggested that this deficiency may hinder his success at the professional level of bodybuilding.
“Right now, Greg Doucette is probably working on a video about how he does everything wrong,” one user wrote, suggesting that Doucette may make a video about Harding soon. As Harding prepares to step onto the pro stage and make his mark in the bodybuilding world, do you agree with the opinion of fans? Or do you feel lashing out at him is an overreaction?
