Samir deserved it that day but Dickerson was coming off back to back second places where he probably should have won one of them. Samir was coming off two years of looking like shit.

Dickerson was extremely impressive in 80.......very detailed with great tris and calves.....sensational posing presentation as well!


Also had a great showing in 81 and 82.......very deserving in my humble opinion.


Samir was unbeatable in 83!!!

I'm guessing because everything counted. It wasn't just about "the most muscular" or "the best conditioned".

It was probably a great balance of muscularity, conditioning, aesthetiques, posing and stage presence.

Thats it in a nutshell but in person his conditioning was unreal, as was his presentation and carried himself with class.

He won because he was the best. He was ripped and dense. They denied him to long and they had to give it to him. In that contest Casey Viator was in his best ever condition. He stopped HIT and was training around 15 sets a body part. Some would argue he should have had it but Dickerson physique just flowed together with symmetry and proportion. His one elbow had a huge bone growth and one pec was slightly off from maybe a tear but even with that he was the winner.

Dickerson in 1980 also had that magical Blown-up "fullness" with still being so defined, really gave a scare to Arnold in the Olympia- deserved to win that one too!!
He was less impressive in following years...

I would see Chris Dickerson around town here a lot.  He and his boyfriend were always at Publix and walking along the beach.  Very nice guy, very humble.  Would answer any question you had and never made a big deal about himself or what he accomplished.

In the mid/late 80's he had a "Team" called the Tri Delta Pec Fraternity. True story. It was just the logo on his shirts. He gave me a red Tri Delta Pec Fraternity tank top once but I was always too fat aka a powerlifter to wear it.  :D

I knew Chris from working out at Better Bodies, Powerhouse gym and Natural Physic gym years ago
He was almost shy but always graceful when approached unlike most of these bloated deebags today !
Someone I know had to pay for all his knee and hip surgeries a few years ago he's totally broke :(

That top picture is an amazing display of calf perfection.

You will never see that on stage today.

And in fairly good health. Beckles I think is in his early 80's and is a personal trainer at Gold's in N. Hollywood from what I hear.

Worth pondering. If you are looking at them objectively to ascertain muscle development, it probably means nothing. I wouldn't worry if I were you. You are probably still straight.
