Mike Quinn was always an interesting read in the muscle mags.
He struggled alot with his mind and substance abuse.
He always seemed like he would wait until the last minute to
get in shape which usually resulted in extreme diets.
If he had his head together he could have been much better IMO.
Most consider his 208 pound physique at the 1988 Olympia to be his
best physique. He thought his 225 pound body he brought to the
1994? Night of Champions was his best.
Great upper body but the wheels never matched up.

The BEST he ever looked was when he won the USA in 1987.

i thought it was Billy Smith, Jim Quinn's training partner that measured Flex' bf at zero or some ridiculous low level.

I believe you are on to something. It was 0.0

That's amazing. Can't believe no one has mentioned this before.

His lower pecs looked a lot like Craig Titus. Two guys who went under the knife to remove GYNO and something went wrong in the process. It's obvious that the doctor removed muscle in the process and the skin just hangs over where the muscle used to be. As for the Quinn brothers, I wonder what their mother's grocery bill cost her when they were teens?
-
Also, he had EPIC hair loss due to MASSIVE dosages of steroids. To make matters worse he tried to pull a Stephen Seagal and grow out his balding hair. :-X

the sad thing was Mike had already won the nabba Mr. Universe and wanted to compete in the ifbb. weider said he was not qualified and had to go back to national amateur competition to earn his pro card. this is the same situation that ended Jeff King's career. meanwhile Brian Buchanan, Edwardo Kawak, John Brown and several others were gifted IFBB pro cards based on their nabba success.
-
Mike was great in seminar. Very knowledgable. Wonder what he looks like now!
-
I think he looked much better when he was heavier, i also heard that this guy ate insane amounts of red meat like Matarazzo did too. When you look through his old interviews he allways seemed to be pissed or angry at something. And i don't know if this is a fact or what, but wasn't he a member of the Hells Angels? I mean it's not like it's an accomplishment or anything, but seems kind of weird that a top athlete would wan't to risk his career hanging out with guys that do weird shit...
-
i thought it was Billy Smith, Jim Quinn's training partner that measured Flex' bf at zero or some ridiculous low level.
Which one of them then took Flex up the ass because they were so excited at seeing the reading?
-
"Beeing attacked by ninjas on a regular basis has been scientifically proven to reduce BF". Flex Wheeler approved.
-
From my understanding the lowest BF anyone (alive) could ever had is something like 2-2.5% I once spoke with this sports doctor and he said that it would basically mean that you only had the fat that is in you're brains and that this level if it even would be possible to obtain would be life threatening and you would be able to keep it only for like 1-3 days.
90% of what FLEX ever said is BS. He is not only one of the dummest bodybuilders of all time, but also one of the dummest people of all time. I think the second place goes to Dexter Jackson, when you see hi's interviews, you can tell that the lights are "on" but there is no one there. No wonder these two guys are friends. Even Chris Cormier is ten times smarter than these two guys combined and even he is not that smart.

Yeah, and there was that too, how retarded do you have to be to actually think that ANYONE would believe a story like that?
-
Actually, from what I remember, it was Greg Louganis who was supposed to have the lowest BF of any athletes. At least, back then. He was supposed to be around 3,5-4% and as athletes tend to exagerate I wouldn't be surprised to know that he was actually more like 5%.

Clarence Bass ( www.cbass.com ) achieved and had Hydrostatically measured a 1% bodyfat in 1979. Didn't hold it for very long but lived/lives at around the 3% level !

The Mighty Quinn, an Eskimo, begs to differ! >:( :D

I see Mike at local shows here in FL so he must live here.......

Looks like his big mouth got him in trouble there in that pic. He looked great back in the late 80's early 90's.

I think he was supposed to compete at this years New York Pro. Obviously didn't. He was only on 1cc test and 1cc deca Rx according to his interview on NBR.
-
Quinn was discriminated against by the judges. Definitely should have won a few Olympias.

I think I agreed with you :o
-

He actually had a great upper body however he was lacking in the wheels department !
-
Agreed. See my explanation about three posts up.
I've seen the same post I made about Strydom/Labrada/Gaspari/Dillet/Levrone/Wheeler, etc, so I just added Mighty Mike to the list.
-

his legs were overpowered by his upperbody, he was not lacking legs...thos are fantastic legs on a guy with less upper body..
-
A few shots from the 1994 NOC via Muscletime...
-

No shit he was LACKING in the leg department , lacking quad size , calf size and balance compared to his upper body and this legs aren't fantastic by any definition

Dr Quinn, Medicine woman beats them all..
here! here! she's a very beautiful jewess 8) maybe you got a shot MattC :D

;D ;D
...ummm...did anybody actually WATCH this nonsense??
What the hell were they thinking?!?!?!
"It's MIGHTY time"?!?!?!?!?!!?
-
I read somewere he was-is bipolar or manic depressive, and it went untreated for a long time, hence the allways pissed attitude
-
...ummm...did anybody actually WATCH this nonsense??

I actually ordered that show on a Pay Per View in 92. And Quinn looked like DOG shit, and the entire show SUCKED big time.
The funny thing is that only 29 people in the ENTIRE county of San Diego ordered that show-and it was pretty much the same all over CA. and the USA. 29 people in the whole fucking county of 2.5 million.
2 months after this show aired-and the low PPV turn out, mcMahon pulled the plug on the WBF.
-
29 People huh? I really hope that there will become some new organisation that "stands" against the IFBB. I think WBF had a chance and the PDI also, but by turn of events, like the cancer that the leader of PDI got, messed things up. It's fucking shame. For too long the IFBB has screwed over it's athletes and when someone speaks up they shut him down. Also the IFBB is one of the most hypocritical organisations in the world. They WAN'T their athletes to take extreme measures to get into the best condition year after year and do not care who drops dead.
-

I watched it. Absolutely hilarious! Even funnier than the stupid commentary and Mike's fat body were the noises he made as he broke out of the straightjacket. Listen to it again, close your eyes and you'll swear you're hearing Pee-Wee Herman :D

He was actually 204 at the weigh-in of the 1988 Olympia and he looked great in the contest. Hard to believe he was 20 pounds heavier in the NOC contest but he looks great in that contest too.
-
;D ;D
hahaha the first thing i would do if i brok out of prison. Strip down to posing trunks and hit a most muscular over the guard.
-
Mike used to work in the corner of boxer Vinny Pazienza a few years back.
Used to see him with Vinnys entourafge all the time on Friday Night Fights.
Vinny blew up bigtime,but definately looked roided up.........probably due to Quinns influence.
-
He was a great poser

I was just going on memory on everything I said. I missed the weight in 1988.
They weighed the competitors that year; something I wished they did every year.
This way we would know if these incredible weight claims are true.
From IronMan Mag Oct. 1994:
Lonnie T.
I thought you were your best ever at the 88 Olympia at 205 pds.
You weighed 225 at the 94 NOC. How would you compare the two conditions?
Mike: I think I was at my best this time. I was sharp and had more muscle.
In 88 I was too skinny. I was sliced but there was no muscle there.
For me to compete, I have to be hard and big.
Sliced doesn't mean shit... I'm not going to be able to stand next to the bigger guys.
-
Great back on Mike !

No Boston mob related (Mass is where he is from). Good guy, we used to train and hang out a lot together. No one has a blank slate past and the more forgiving you are for how people act (you do't have to accept their actions) the easier your life will be. Mike is in the SE USA in the health/gym business.
-
I like your handle sweetie!......PS, I hope you're a chick ::)
Nope, I'm a big hairy musclebear. GRRRR! :D
Teasing. Don't worry, you didn't just call a man "sweetie." Not talking to me anyway ;)

You are right and i know what your saying, because in my family (relatives) i'm kind of considered as the "white sheep." And i like it, i have no intentions of taking any kind of "vacations" in the big house.
I was a bouncer for 4 years in this heavy metal bar and that place was crazy, plus i was the only bouncer there, because the owner was a cheap ass. Anyway, there were a lot real bikers as customers and very rarely they would cause problems and they gave good tips too...
