Competitive bodybuilding is in a sad state. These guys are very far away from owning an "ideal" male physique. I appreciate their freak mass but it's not what the "sport" is about.

This is true too Sherief!  No one can really beat that pose of Nasser's above.  But it's ironic how Nasser in the 90's was getting similar placings as Branch Warren today - over 10 years later, yet Branch's physique is so much worse.   Shows that today's top 3 would not make even top 6 during Nasser's time.

If Nasser from back then was competing at the O now, and with access to today's pharmaceuticals, he would be ranked in the top 3 (along with Heath, Kai, and Cutler).

The amount of " Nasser cock-sucking " between Sherief and BigBobs is UNBELIEVABLE !! If I were Nasser, I'd be ashamed as well as embarrassed. I mean, Nasser looks great in that pic, but COME ON ! He wasn't the ONLY pro to compete in the 90's, for fuck's sake ! He just so happens to be the only pro that get's BigBobs and Sherief's tiny dicks hard. Fucking pathetic, you two. Really fucking pathetic.

You mean accumulate excess scar tissue by mistake?

Regardless, only a jealous hater focuses on photos of a few shows past one's prime.  It's like discussing Samir Bannout as a bodybuilder by focusing on his weak comeback attempt later in his career.

He was ranked in the top 3 for many years back then during a more competitive era, he'd be leaps and bounds ahead of today's top 3.

What if it had a picture of Shawn Ray as a 90's example - then one can argue that Shawn Ray was not the only pro to compete in the 90's.  One can also argue why I chose Branch Warren since he's not the only pro to compete today.

Not jealous, just pointing out a fact.  'Scar tissue" hahahahahahahaha. Besides, Samir was light years ahead of Nasser.

BS, why would Nasser do photoshoots like that in his off season? Pic is prob taken 1-2 days after a show. He's holding tons of water.

This is Nasser OS,

LOL you're deluded to really think that's contest shape.  I guess he loses his dark contest-tan in 1-2 days after a show haha.  He also has the offseason face bloat yet the body is still much harder than today's offseason pros.  He's 300+ lbs there.

The judges are giving him similar placings today as Nasser got in the mid to late 90's so I think it's a fair example of comparing 90's vs. today.

C'mon, NO ONE would do photoshoots like that in his off season. He was prob hungry after he got defeated by Doz  ;D

Lord God, aren't you sly ?! LOL !! How can anyone take you or Sherief seriously ?? Almost EVERY thread you both create is linked to Nasser in some way, shape, or form. Get your head out of your ass. Or better yet, out of Nasser's ass. LOL !!


Btw, I wish you would've posted a pic of Shawn Ray. Looks INFINITELY better than Nasser, anyways. And certainly didn't have to inject synthol into his muscles ( at least in the way that Nasser did ) to stay on top.

Not seeing your logic.  I'm telling you its offseason because a) I know it is, b) for those who don't I gave example of his whitish skin (relative to a contest tan) + his face being bloated compared to his contest-face.  

Your rebuttal is "no one" would do photoshoots "like that" in offseason?  What does that mean?  What exactly is a photoshoot "like that"?  ???

Comparing Nasser to Branch is pretty bad in my opinion especially if you are going to label the thread, bodybuilding in the 90's vs. today.  A better comparison would be the Top 5 O and Arnold of the mid-90's vs. Top 5 O and Arnold of today in photos.

Check my post history I've posted on several other topics and while I don't start threads often my last one was about my trip to Cancun not Nasser related at all.

In fact "ganstalean" posts more about Flex Wheeler than I do about Nasser.

I wasn't going to post 20 photos of all different pros but anyone can compare other pros of the 90's to other pro's of today since the topic has been opened.  I think my point will still stand (and like i said earlier my point is not Nasser-specific  :D)

So his bloated face is your logic to say he's off, or can you say on which date this picture has been taken?  ::) Have you ever seen Dennis Wolf a day before or after a show? Right, he's as white as a paper.

Oiled in a trunk with a Greek landscape background (it's only gay.... right). OS he would only do seminars and guestposings, but not something like this.

Picture was taken in December/1995.  Backstage at a guest posing.

Let's for arguments sake hypothetically even if it was pre-contest it still beats the contest-shape picture you posted "for comparison" so there's really no point.

How many times did Shawn beat Nasser?

Don't know the exact #'s, but Nasser beat Shawn at 95 Olympia, 97 Olympia, and 98 Olympia. 

I believe some Some AC's as well but I'm not sure if Shawn competed in those, since the only times Nasser competed in the Arnold Classic was 97, 98, and 99 and got 2nd, 2nd and 1st respectively.

Actually no, I don't. I have posted as of late a few vids featuring Flex...am I a fan yes...
But, everybody bbing thread I have started ain't always about him. I've started many on Phil, Melvin, Dillett, Shawn Ray...

One of the vids of Flex was showing his guest posing routine and how it differed from today's, it was sparked by Vic Richard's and Phil Heath's, noting the difference of one #2 of the 90s vs two #2's of today.

Shawn Ray rarely guestposed in shape---that there are vids of, and dillett as well, let alone Nasser, and neither had the energy in their guest posing.

I am a fan, yes, but not really a fan of the man himself.
To you, only Nasser exists, and only Nasser matters---Not Kev, not Flex, not Doz, not Dillett, not Shawn, not Cottrell, not Vince, Lee Priest, not Ronnie, not Gunter, not Dex, not Ruhl, not Fux, not Francois, not Phil, not John Sherman (who almost owned Nasser at the 94 NOC), only Nasser.
