he was from florida ( around hurricane Andrews time ) , I remember him being a sick bodybuilder doin the robot , maybe that's why he didn't win the Olympia ;D

Plus, when Dorian was done, it seemed he started looking into other interests quite heavily, rather than focusing on competing on a less publicized stage.

Vince lives in Pembroke Pines, FL I live close to him and have trained with him! Great physique some of the best arms of all time and great calves!

lee haney deserved his wins as did dorian yates until he started tearing himself up.

why anyone can look at Haney & make a statement like this is beyond me. Vince looked great but was miles behind Haney when u compared physiques
-
X2 AND GENUINE NICE PERSON...
Definitely, I got pics with him from the Southern States from a few years ago! He was hitting on my wife!
-

Haney a class guy out of Spartanburg SC, He was a judge at a contest I was in once. His arms wasnt the greatest but passed the test for many years.
-

miles how? lol maybe in the back width wise but vince owned him in the arms department. haney was better but not by miles buddy. :'( :'( :'( :'(
-
I saw Haney guest pose when he was Mr.O. He was the biggest Pro I had ever seen at the time! He was much bigger than Vince ever was!
-
thought he would win at least one O
but then he pulled that pirate thing
-

From Havre De Grace, MD to Florida...hmm, loves the East Coast.

yes buddy, he was better by miles!!! You're the 1st person I've ever heard try to make a comparison btw Haney & Vince. Vince had better Arms & calves, so did every bodybuilder. Haney was way better in every single pose & every other body part.
-
calve pindakaas
Mister Westland, I completely forgot about your existence, i'm so sorry...
-
He didn't win an Olympia because you type with the Caps Lock key on.
-

to make a claim "miles better " you better not be lacking any body parts to be " miles better " than vince sorry but true he was great but I think your claim is Ludacris.
-
When will people learn? it's NOT better parts that win contests , it's better poses . You can NOT tally up parts and claim X is better than Y because he has better parts.
Poses NOT parts
Vince gets lost in poses next to his competition despite his wonderful parts
-
Umm.. Why did Dorian lose against Haney here ?

;D ;D ;D. BK, that's rediculous bro, come on man!!! Ronnie was miles ahead of everyone in his prime but was missing calves. Does his weak calves make that statement incorrect ???? U don't hv to be perfect to be miles ahead of someone. You just hv to be much better, which Haney was ;)

because Haney was better!!! That's one of 8 mandatory poses. Look at the other 7 & you'll see why

Wrong , Dorian won the muscularity round. ;) lost the symmetry round and the posing rounds.
-

No, I right!!! Haney won the show, he was better. That's my statement, not who won the muscularity round or posing round but the show. And it wasn't close even though it was supposedly by one point. The same way it wasn't close in '04 when Ronnie supposedly only won by one point over Jay.

NO , you are wrong. Dorian won that pose and that round. Your denial doesn't change the fact. I made NO claims about the contest and in fact I think Haney was the clear winner , has nothing to do with the rounds.

I bet Dorian took home rls too.
-
I bet Dorian took home rls too.
He won all the mandatory poses , which is why he won the round. Haney won the symmetry round , standing relaxed from the front & rear , 1/4 turns , and the posing rounds.
-
well the judges got it wrong that year
Haney should ahve been awarded the muscularity round
he is clearly owning everyone in that FLS
his chest far superior to dorian in that pose
-

No not clearly, because I think the only thing Haney has on Dorian there is chest. Just look at the legs !

Allright then. Didn't know they judged it that way

Jesus Christ what did I just say about parts? :-\ NOT how it works and to play your game look at Dorian's legs compared to Haneys
Like Lenda Murray said Dorian is like Lee WITH LEGS
-

No Denial here bro. We agree that Haney was the clear winner, good. Let's return this to Vince not winning the O. Wait a sec, we can't do that without mentioning Haney & Yates. Vince was a great bodybuilder but had no chance against either guy. You'd have to eliminate Both of them in '91 for Vince to Win. 3rd was his highest placing & i dont think he finished that high after 91, Flex, Levrone then Nasser knocked him down a few spots. He was unfortunately around in the best era of bodybuilding. all those guy wouldve had an excellent chance in any other era, not to mention Lebrada & Shawn also from that era.

Or like Penny Price, the female commentator said right before they announced 2nd place "Yates look like a baby next to Haney" remember that or did u conveniently forget :)
Besides "like lee with legs.." Doesn't mean better than lee, he was just the closest thing to Lee at that time, which was more of a reference to his back than anything.

Nonsense , Yates was the first guy who could match Haney on size and back and he made more inroads directly compared to Haney than anyone previously. Haney couldn't outmuscle Yates like Ray , Labrada and Vince. Mike Christian was never had enough size for his frame even though he had the structure , same with DeMey
-
Vince is a cool dude. he trained like a fucking pussy tho. There was a video if him training....Very Bob Chickish "not how much you lift, its how much you look like you can lift"

Didn't Coleman pass him?

Good picture of Ronnie, yet why is there one spotter and many others standing around (and sitting) just watching?
-

exactly... you see people think big arms = best bber.... or automatic winner...

HE HAD ONE OF THE GREATEST PHYSIQUES OF ALL TIME WELL BALANCED, SHREDDED , HUGE WHY DID HE FALL SHORT? HELL HE COULD EVEN POSE WELL.
A. He had a very weak chest. People talk about Phil's pecs ... LO-fucking-L! Vince's chest was absolutely pathetic compared to the rest of him.
B. His conditioning actually wasn't that consistent. Sometimes, he was shredded (or maybe some semblance thereof); others, he was smooth in the back, hams and ass.
C. He competed against Haney, Dorian and Ronnie as those dudes were winning. He didn't stand a chance against any of them when they were in their respective primes. I was actually amazed that he whipped Levrone in some of the '95 Grand Prix shows ... but then, K-Lo was also known for a relative lack of consistency.
D. Actually, no, Vince was NOT huge. He was the first to admit that. He was extremely gifted with small joints and some awesome muscle bellies. Plus, FWIW, he is also supposed to be one of the VERY nicest guys you'll ever meet in the BBing world.
Just the same, I sincerely doubt Vince himself would tell you that he had more than a chance at 2nd place for ANY given Olympia :)
-
vince taylor won some Masters Olympias tho. ;D
-
vince never was able to compete for a top spot after 1992, thats when you had yates ,levrone , and wheeler wining all the shows, mike francois was around then to , but he got butt hole sickness and wasnt around long, i even remember porter cottrell sneaking in some wins to .

Wrong. Vince won 7 shows AFTER 1992 and that's not counting the Masters Olympias and that's NOT counting the 3 shows he won in 1992

pics of every other bber except Vince Taylor in a vince taylor thread. lol
vince never really got 'hard'.. always seemed to have a glaze over him and would be sweating bullets while posing.
also his legs didn't carry the mass other guys did.
I thought his chest was ok... maybe i'm remembering wrong, but I think it had a shape like ronnies.
I thought his back was ok as well.
great arms though... and calves.
epic jaw, too. lol
another guy rumored to be a big fan of anadrol... same rumors as levrone, eating 6-8 per day.

Vince was always consistently in shape. He had a couple of poor showings toward the end of his career but he was always ripped. The problem he had is that he looked small compared to Haney. Great poser too.
Anyone know how he trained in his prime? I know he wrote that he ran two miles a day. I give him props for doing something like that. Most pros get exhausted walking slow on a treadmill. At his peak the articles in Weider use to say he used 5 sets of around 12 reps per exercise. There is a training video that I saw was well after his peak years but it doesn't mean he trained like that back in the day.

The "knock" on Vince was always his legs (and age he started competing later than most) as far as Lee Haney it was the sum of his parts/structure that made him Awesome,he had shape/mass and an overall crazy "flow" to his physique ...(this pic of Haney blew me away when I first saw it)

Theese endless debates, repeating the same arguments over and over to convince someone of your opinion, just reeks of looser. I get AIDS in my eyes when I stumble upon them.

Watched the videos. Can agree with Haney being better. But Dorian looks good next to him. Legs like I said are better with Dorian, the videos just confirms this. Haney has a better chest and arms look bigger than Dorian's, which is remarkable since Haney doesn't have very good arms when viewing his physique as a whole.
Neither of them looks razor sharp.
Vince Taylor looked great next to them, upperbody wise anyway.
-
I was at the 91 British Grand Prix and Vince brought the house down.
It could have gone either way, he looked fantastic.

I think not being able to correctly spell the word loser has to be up there as well. :P

of course not.. >:(

vince taylor one of the top 10 bbers ever.

Great upper body, but didn't have the wheels.

he didn't have wheels, he had legs the ones that god gave him ::)

vinice taylor himself said it was impossible for him to beat haney then dorian..

I think most people here would be surprised at actual cold measurement arm size on the Pro BB's of that era.
Didn't matter what the tape said and the judges sure weren't measuring.
A cut up and shredded arm will always look bigger than it really "seems" to be ~
-
The second reason Vince didn't win one
-
Damn strong. Where did Hulkster go?
oh I'm here. just got back from fishing.
ND getting owned again I see... 8)
-
ps in 1992 vince won just about every contest except the olympia
he peaked for the Arnold that year, and famously got an eye injury and showed up in bad shape for the olympia that year.
prob. wouldn't have beaten yates anyway as yates was pre tear then, but would have finished a lot higher than the 6th place he got.
-
Think he won 1 or 2 Master's Olympias, does that count?
In my book yes. Ray should do the same. I think Vince won a bunch of masters shows,no?
