On the controversial 1981 win:
"The judge who voted for Tom platz - they were friends"
Manion - "Platz trained in manion's gym. Why wouldn't he give him first place"
On Ed Corney:
"He moved too fast, he had no muscle. people thought he had muscle, but he didn't. he deceived the fans and judges."

I didn't listen to the show, so Franco really believes he deserved the win?
-
i believe franco ! :D
-
i believe franco ! :D
Franco's got 2 Mr. O titles.
All those with 1 Mr. O title or less can kiss his wrinkled Sardinian ass!

yes. jealous as the day is long! + franco could outlift their ass!
in pumping iron franco is portrayed like a shy guy that is easy to take advantage too, he doesnt give that impression any more! he didnt just say "he said i didnt deserve my 2nd mr olympia? well that's just one white mans opinion" he went into great detail why he deserved to win - and he could probably talk about that for another hour!

Actually, Manion placed Padilla first. So, I'd say that makes him pretty honest considering he had a connection to Platz. Franco's wrong.

240 just got the name switched up....Manion placed Padilla first.
Danny lived and trained in Rochester NY...when he wasnt, he was in S.M. CA at Golds...I doubt very much he ever trained at Manions Gym.

Francos not wrong. He said Padilla trained at Manions Gym and Platz lived with one of the other judges. Manion gave Padilla 1st and the other judge gave Platz 1st.

Sorry, typing while eating and talking about guys before my time lol...

He is wrong. Padilla spent 98% of his time training in Rochester. He was rarely in Cali. and when he was, he (to my knowledge) trained at the main Gold's with everyone else.

oh, and beside all that...Franco deserved 5th place.
-
Corney had no muscle? What did he have then, synthol? Corney was a great poser, no need for Fanco to get bitter about not being able to keep up 20+ yrs later... Should be happy with his 1 mr o, and one gift...
