Lee wouldn't win , he had to many flaws that he could get away with until Dorian , Lenda Murray was doing commentary on the 1991 Mr Olympia and said Dorian was like Haney only with legs. His quads were good but his hams and calves were way behind I get your point out these guys being on another level drug wise but it is what it is, what would really be interesting is to compare these guys using only what Haney was doing and see where they would be. I like Haney one of my favorites and was the Mr Olympia when I first started lifting but he wouldn't be able to beat someone like Phil Heath or Ronnie Coleman , I recall Muscle & Fitness saying that Flex Wheeler would beat Haney and I think he would
mister olympia here before gut and calf issues

Ronnie didn't take part at the 1996 AC. Also, the background looks the same as the 1997 AC.
The first pro I ever recall having a noticeable gut was Momo
nasser owns everyone in this pic back to the topic plz
fucking old timers with rose tinted specs at it again,,,,,haney would be crushed by heath.. lack of size and conditioning would realy hurt him,, poor arms and soft glutes ( no homo ) would be the nails in the coffin
Of course, things have changed, now one needs massive size, and conditioning that whilst doesn't look "hard" is very sharp. Haney wouldn't featureBut, take Heath to Haney's day, and he wouldn't turn pro. Structure, the ability to hold mass, the small waistline, unbelivable taper, massive torso.With todays advances in chemical warfare, if Haney was competing with the current crop, he'd be unbeatable
only thing different from now to then is slin and maybe higher gh usage( altho there were roumers that haney was no stranger to slin either?),,, everything else was used and abused to fuck
Good line-upSome are past their prime there, but some "names"Vince taylor managed to look fantastic and hardly age in 20 yrs. And he was already 30 something when he turned pro! Some genetics...
This is actually Ronnie 96 already starting to show
Bodies like Paris ,Labrada, Benfatto would get people looking in admiration, todays champs just get people laughing and ridiculing.Bob talking a lot of sense (ahead of his time)
Reverse the argument.Put 2012 Phil Heath and kai Greene in the 91 Olympia and they destroy everyone including Haney...people would lose their minds and the size and definition.
