I think you mean the 1985 Olympia, not 1995.
That is a fantastic book, but I almost disagree with Bob about him needing to take more or be bigger. Maybe for the Olympia against Haney, but not against the likes of Labrada, Gaspari, Demey, etc., in smaller contests. I'd say he held his own size-wise against those guys. I think it might have been more about him being gay.
Yes, Condor, my mistake, I meant to say 1985. In that contest, if you remember, Gaspari was the big, freaky guy weighing about 215 ripped and vascular with shredded glutes and Haney was pretty freaky himself, weighing close to 250 ripped and vascular also. Then you had Albert Beckles, Mike Christian and Berry DeMey and they were all big and ripped so Paris, in comparison, didn't have enough mass and wasn't freaky and ripped like the top six. In 1988, where that picture is from, Gaspari was smaller because he was trying to lean out and keep his waist down instead of trying to compete with Haney for size and Labrada was never that huge, only about 176 there.
