I've said it before and I'll say it again. A mid-card bodybuilder from the mid 90's by the name of Ian Harrison was better than Dennis Wolf. This goes to show the improvements in quality over the last 2 dozen years. ::)

Other than his arms being a little undersized (in this day and age SEO would solved that, but hey what's fake muscle in today's bodybuilding) he's much better than Wolf. Wolf is big but on stage, too many flaws.

Harrison was very underrated. Great, great back and quads on a taller guy.

Ian Harrison breaks Dennis he was big in the wwe and professional wrestling he kills Dennis wolf he has some pretty interesting interviews one how they gave him free high quality protein powder he ate 2lbs a day and it helped his physica

The interviews he did with Trevor Smith were great, like when he said the first time he used GH he was gaining 2 pounds a day while dieting.

Ian Harrison wasn’t even a threat to place in a top 5 in a minor IFBB show. Never. No competitor was ever concerned about Ian. He was not a threat.
1990’s pro’s like Porter Cottrell, Jon Sherman, Henderson Thorne, Alq Gurley and Milos Sarcev beat Ian like he was their bitch.
How the hell could Ian step up to a beast like Wolf??

Ian was never a player, he is irrelevant compared to Wolf
-
chiming in here, i cant say you can say he was better than dennis wolf, ian never even placed in the top five at any major show,

And Wolf has won at least 6 pro shows. One of which was the Columbus Ohio Arnold Classic.
He also won a newer type of Arnold Classic (in Europe?)
-
anyone from the 90s was better than todays guys
thats just a fact

Unofficial 2007 Mr Olympia also imo
-
C'mon guys how many good years Dennis had?
-
Dennis in his prime condition (which we will never see again) is better than Ian in his prime condition.
-
Prime Dennis > Prime Ian.
-
Only thing Ian had was those quads. Once he tore'em, he was done.
-

You mean Victor Martinez?
-

Ian didn't tear his quads.
Ian damaged both knees squatting at 17, he then learned how to train smart, that's when he made his biggest gains using pre-exhaust.
He went into wrestling after bodybuilding, he didn't retire through tearing quads...
-
Other than his arms being a little undersized (in this day and age SEO would solved that, but hey what's fake muscle in today's bodybuilding) he's much better than Wolf. Wolf is big but on stage, too many flaws.
I liked Harrison's physique and though he was great but imo he was not better than Wolf. Some would argue Wolf was the uncrowned 07 Olympia. In his prime he was amazing!

harrison had good legs

A very hard training guy as well.

5'10" and 258 pounds. Underrated bodybuilder. Then again, so were many others like Charles Clairmonte, Andreas Munzer, Aaron Baker, Sonny Schmidt, Roland Cziurlock, Alq Gurley and many others in the mid 90's.

Yes, that quad shape is impressive. It's got literally nothing to do with this thread but Compton has a similar look...

Good post.
-
alq gurley had a great build i believe he blew his knees out that is why he wasnt around to long
-
The 2007 Wolf was grossly overlooked and sadly he has never repeated that form. Had Wolf won the O in 2007, nary a soul would have complained.

GEIR PAULSON UK BBER AS WELL ALL SAME MOLD...

Left bicep looks way smaller in that shot. Just the angle or an injury?

Ian Harrison here, before Lee Priest, 5:00
-
he was 6' tall
-
it was common for bodybuilders back then to downgrade their height, to sound more impressive
-
Wolf has ..had better hamstrings. I still believe wolfs quads are/were bigger than ians as well. Wolfs waist was smaller and his Delts were bigger

wolf has access to better drugs though

This is a bullshit thread. Prime Dennis is far and above better than Ian Harrison - however, just like all pros back then, they were all in levels of condition that have rarely if ever been on stage for at least a decade, now.

very recent pic of Ian

Wzzp with all this muscle talk?
-
Well you also have to take in account harris has a successful professional wrestling career he would have made a good amount out of the gate being a pro bodybuilder probably 200grand a year at least

he's still got what appears to be 20'' guns

From Ian Harrison's facebook:
Well what a year 2020 has been for many of us, myself included.
With a global pandemic and so many other things affecting 2020 worldwide.
Approximately 6 weeks ago I began having bad acid reflux pains and attacks approximately every other day which caused me to lose my voice and cause me a lot of pain and vomiting.
I researched the symptoms but no changes in diet seemed to work.
I therefore made an appointment to see a gastroenterologist to find out what was going on.
So fast forward to Dec 7th.
Once the gastroenterologist saw me he immediately sent me to the ER to get my heart checked out. They did an EKG and within 5 mins I was in a room surrounded by Doctors and nurses X-ray machines and having multiple tests all confirming my heart was running to 50% of its capacity. Apparently I had been having multiple heart attacks for the past 3 weeks not acid reflux!!!
No it couldn’t be , I was this super fit ex bodybuilder who ran the PCA , they must be mistaken right ?
No !
I have trained all my life and always eaten a bodbuilding based healthy low fat diet, retired from competitive bodybuilding at 28, so obviously this came as an extreme shock and embarrassment to me.
On December 7th I had emergency open heart surgery , I had two heart attacks on the operating table and 6 bypasses were performed.
I spent two weeks in ICU due to some complications (pneumonia) in which time due to confusion I ripped out my own intubation tubes twice which caused many problems and caused me to be in the ICU having a machine breathe for me for two weeks and a week recovering in the cardiology ward.
I can honestly say this was the most terrifying thing that has ever happened to me.
Btw there is NO history of this in my family .
I came home December 28th. I have a few weeks of hard recovery in front of me but this has really just opened my eyes to many things, one being just how precious and fragile life is, even when we think it could never happen to us the other, enjoy life and never think you are invincible.
As bodybuilders we think we are strong and tough (many are).
We pride ourselves on our dedication to health and fitness many have perished and some are quick to point the finger saying or yeah he abused this or that , when they really don’t know the facts.
Over the last few years stories such as mine seem more and more common.
After speaking with all the surgeons it seems the biggest killer in the world bar none is any type of heart disease/ blockage .
As the man the behind the PCA USA promoting shows across the country I feel obliged to tell my story.
Bodybuilding did not do this to me but these things are ignored by many.
This should be a healthy sport and life is too short already so I say let’s promote HEALTH AND the great sport of BODYBUILDING.
Not one over the other , enjoy the process of competing and achieving stepping stones as you compete but never forget what’s truly important .
Family, friends, Health and making great memories.

I don't wish any ill will on this man, but I wish he(and other bbers) would quit with this nonsense. There's nothing healthy about bodybuilding. We all know the gig man and it ain't about health and fitness!

Not at the moment, sure, but once he's recovered, and bulked up with a few blasts/cycles he'll be able to pick that sucker up - no problems

Today's update:
"Today was a good day.
I went to my much anticipated Cardiologist appointment and got great news.
All my blood work came back perfect.
The past week I have had very low blood pressure and consequently I have been taken off most of my meds.
I was told I am way ahead of schedule with my exercise so I will not need cardiac rehab and i was also cleared to start riding my bike again and to be able to do some light shoulder and arm weight training along with leg work.
All in all I couldn’t have asked for better news.
Recovery is going well."

I got the best news I could have possibly asked for , my heart has recovered back to full function with no damage caused by the multiple heart attacks I unknowingly went through and I have the all clear to train and do cardio as normal.
Life is good and I am a very blessed man to get a second chance at this thing called life.

My brother Neal and my mum and Dad George Harrison and all my family in England sorry for putting you through this , I love you all.
Also thank you to all my friends for reaching out and sending me well wishes through this ordeal , it has meant the world to me and I truly appreciate every single one.
It’s official I’m back but with a new perspective on life that’s for sure.

Does that mean the doc gave him the ok to blast gear again?
Only credit I give him is he didn’t say it was predisposed and said he had no family history of heart problems
But these guys should just flat out say the lifestyle they are following isn’t healthy at all, if you train completely natural, and eat “clean” here and there, then that’s a different story but almost all these guys even when retired are still using self proclaimed “trt” dosages

He also said he will “tidy up” if he’s planning a vacation or something and use a little primo or masteron. He will end up on a bunch of stuff before too long I predict.

Better than 6000mg a week of test that he was pushing

If thats the case then I'm with joswift he will be 200lbs in no time and bigorexia will kick in and TRT will be a gram a week.

His arms aren’t big enough to match his chest. His thighs are too big for his calves.
He’s got one pose, and when he hits that he looks like a big spider.
hes 19 here

Jordan might downsize and not try to maintain as much as possible. Some people have and on and off switch, where you go full throttle or basically not at all.
Look at Palumbo. Or Jason Huh. A few such examples
A few bodybuilders and powerljfters have gone into MMA and found any real drugging and high bodyweight only hurts.
Actually, Dennis Wolf is another example. He didn't try to be a somewhat lesser but still jacked dude.
