Title: Mike Matarazzo looking shocked during the 1997 Mr. Oympia pre-judging
Post by: RocketSwitch625 on January 15, 2011, 03:41:25 AM
The shocked look on Mike Matarazzo's face says it all. Dorian Yates was the clear winner obviously.

Judges are clearly blind...shawnies only flaw was/is being short...dude has the best taper of all three, best back detail, best wheels, way better arms than dorian, ok calves for a black brotha...this and 94 were clearly his years...

Best back detail and best wheels? I think you may need better glasses. Ray was not only short but he was also less conditioned and less developed than the Shadow.

Take a close look at the utter shock look on Matarazzo's face. His eyes are fixed on the Shadow and he's saying in his head: "Holy fuck, what the fuck can us guys do to bring this title back to the good ol' USA"? LOL

I think the look on his face was more of a shock on why this guy with no arms and a belly like a cow is Mr Olympia.

Thats one pose and when you're out muscled by close to 60lbs by a more striated and denser competition, chances are, you're not going to surpass that.

FACT:
Even though Ronnie Coleman was smooth compared
to his 1996 Olympia condition,
Peter McGough said that Ronnie @ the (1997 Olympia) had the best
back double bicep pose in the whole contest.
In that picture Shawn is clearly the best but live and in person
it was probably a different story.

????.. nasser's arms, quads, and, of course calves were all better than ray's!!.. also his shoulders, chest, and, hams!!.. ray only had a better back (more details) but i see nasser better in the RLS pose because in this pose ray looked narrow and small and his back's details were not that good as in the RDB pose!!..

of course he was shocked.

the whole bodybuilding community was shocked that the judging could have been that poor.

shawn owned them both (nasser and the one armed bandit)

Thanks for posting pics that prove my point. Nasser generally had shitty arms, when you look at the while BDB shot, Nasser has no real flow, Shawn has better detail in everything, front and back. Plus again, Nasser has a shitty back, why for the life of me, that someone that "smart" can't figure out how to have great back development is beyond me..

Anyway, the only thing Nasser has on Shawn is size.
I should also add that I'm glad that Nasser never won the O, because he would have been a very mediocre Mr. O,  but better than Jay Cutler now.

  In the front relaxed, absolutely. Everywhere else, in the other three quarter turns in the symmetry round and all six mandatoties, Dorian destroyed Shawn. It wasn't even close.

you said that shawn's arm (bi & tri) were better than nasser's and here in these pics you can see clearly that nasser's were better.. you also said that shawn's calves were better but i wont argue with you in this because to say this you are either an idiot who knows nothing or you don't know what calves are!!..

Shawn looked the best by far. Of course Dorian and even Nasser had the size advantage and Dorian had the conditioning too. Which is why he won, size and condition, it didn't matter that he looked awful with no arms and a bloated stomach...no symmetry, awful shape.

The downfall of bodybuilding.

dorian's condition was always great but not this year.. his quads were soft and his stomach was bloated!!..

The shocked look on Mike Matarazzo's face says it all. Dorian Yates was the clear winner obviously.
