Title: Haney should have won the 1983 Mr. O
Post by: Danimal77 on March 30, 2008, 12:40:32 PM: I'm sorry, but this 230 pound body crushes the competition. Samir included. BTW, the intro music was what was found in The Terminator the following year:

The IFBB made him lose like 45 pounds and even at a lower weight, they STILL didn't give him a higher placing. If Bertil was a pro-bodybuilder in todays age he would rape the competition with his 22" monster biceps.

Samir was pretty much perfect at that show, not as big as Haney, but certainly presented a bit better overall package in terms of balance- and he had that "Wow Factor" by finally coming into the show without holding water; his main problem in past years.

I think he would murder the competition, but the judges would still want to lynch him.

Post by: Moosejay on March 31, 2008, 06:26:23 PM: Well, Haney placed pretty high....but, yes, Samir was the clear winner, even over Zane.

Obviously Lee Haney placed high (deservedly so), but in 83 it was Samir's Olympia.
