Looked cut to ribbons until he turned to the rear - the glutes were soft as hell (no homo) and there was no back density to speak of. Also he has a weird gut thing going on when he gears up for a side chest. Still a great physique though for its time.

shouldnt have wasted time in nabba, couldve done serious damage in ifbb, when he eventually came round to ifbb in early 90's, had put on more size, lost the lines and hardness, got a bit of a gut, still phenomenal arms though

in late 80's through to 91, would've been contender to win any pro show and top 3 at mr o for sure - at the exact bodyweight and condition he had in 1990

I met him in person in 95. Was about 280 lbs and in shape. You had to see him as pics don't do him justice. He is also a tallish guy at 6'1" I believe.

You're clutching at straws there. He had a pretty much ideal physique.

You dont need an "extra ton of muscle", to look perfect. In his case, he was already perfect..
