Labrada has more game than a referee convention.

One of the best physiques of all time, and now a successful supplement company boss.

Should be a good listen.

Labrada was clearly the hardest on stage that night and Haney got better as the night wore on.

Two of the greatest physiques to ever grace a bb stage. I've heard Lee Labrada speak in past interviews and the guy is very well spoken with alot of knowledge of aspects of the industry. Labrada makes the best MRPs ever. I've never heard Danny speak so I'm really looking foward to hearing from him and definitely about that controversial Pumping Iron situation and Franco Columbu win.

Lee Labrada is all class.

for Lee Labrada = Did you mind never being a olympia winner only second being your highest placing?

For Danny Padilla = if you were competing today, do you reckon you could hold your own against the likes of Yates and Cutler?

"Wow this is gunna be one helluva show. I met Lee at the Arnold this past year and he seemed like a real cool dude. He is a true success story. I can't wait to hear about how he started up his nutritional company.
 
I believe that I saw a picture of him and his son in a recent issue of either Flex or Muscle&Fitness. Does his son have any ambitions for competitive BB? He seemed young in the photo but it looks as though Darrems son has been at it awhile." -ecogoin

I would love to hear Danny's comments on the 1980 and 1981 Olympia's as well as what he did to become so damn RIPPED in '81.

I would like to hear Lee's comments on the state of bodybuilding today in regards to choosing mass as the main criteria, the backward trend of creative posing routines and the decision of the IFBB to abandon drug testing after the 1990 Olympia.

Sounds like a great show!!

Sounds like an outstanding show, I really cant wait to hear what Danny has to say especially about his condition for 81 and how he felt about the results of that show, thoughts on the top five finishers at that contest and his training style. Cant wait to hear it.

for Lee Labrada =how he feel about team USA in IFBB 1985 World Amateur Championships ?
because only Lee won in MiddleWeight that year!
(Ron Love was 3rd, Phil Williams 2nd ,Joseph Dawson 2nd )

Since 1985 USA team can't sweep in  World Amateur Championships again !
Why ?
Can Lee give any opinions ?

Ask Padilla about the 75 Universe when he wasn't allowed to represent the US team and how this almost led to him to represent Portugal! :o

I'd like the PBW hosts to ask them what they think of the present state of bodybuilding, in particular the look of today's bodybuilders and the judging that's rewarded it.

Do they think we're on the right track?

Title: PBW's Padilla Interview was Awesome
Post by: Livewire on June 18, 2007, 08:41:11 PM
I just became a MONSTER Padilla fan.  I vote to make him the official GetBig mascot.  What a legend.  The dude ate Arnolds Victory Cheesecake, he got robbed of the 81 Olympia title, and he got banged in the rear when the judges took away the NOC title.  The coolest golden era bodybuilder ever.  His Joe Weider impersonation seals the deal.  The best interview ever.  Did anyone know that Demillia named him the giant killer?

The judging was over (or so he thought)...he actually had enough time to get off the stage, get back to the dressing room area, and start showering when they decided they needed to see more comparisons...

Unbelieveable...!

Thanks to Dan Solomon and Bob for doing such a good job with the interview. 

I talked to Danny this morning in Virginia, where he's working on a project until the end of the week, and he said that he had a great time doing the show and really enjoyed the whole experience.

There was some similarity in their interviews.  Both guys were very disillusioned from competition after Labrada's loss in 1990 to Haney, and Danny's placing in the 1981 Olympia.

Very similiar in their experiences and reactions.

great interview with Padilla, Bob.. I was glad there weren't any Arnold q's directed at Danny and not too many Haney questions directed at Labrada. It shows respect to the guests that they don't have to be continually be in the shadows (pardon the punn) of the dominant bodybuilders of their respective era's.
