His most muscular gif from the 2001 NOC or one of those shows was the best ever IMO.

I saw him up close backstage at a show in 2003. He seemed like a super nice guy (no english) but really not impressive up close. The oil was evident all over the place and his skin looked thick and lumpy. Not that visible from 10 feet away but up close it just didn't look right.

Yes sir - 2002.  He never quite had the genetics for aesthetics to make it to the top, but probably had the potential to come very close to living the Arnold, as he himself felt [I believe he said he did feel he had this potential].  His genetics for size was amazing, and for conditioning was very good also, albeit not up to his size genetics.  It was his genetics for aesthetics that hurt him the most.

Sadly, he is a good example of the plight of Bigorexia, alongside Nasser El Sonbaty.  We speak about him being immortal, but it was in 2013 that he himself said that a German seminar that his heart was the size of an elephant.  :(  I like Markus and do not wish to see him die young - but do men that large ever live long?

I think bodybuilders need to downsize to the size of Be There and live healthier while still being more massive than 99% of the population.  Frankly, I'm completely satisfied being 170 and disproportionately strong for my size.  But of course - to each their own.

He's still looking great - way more muscle than I thought he would have.
The downside is his lumpy appearance but... whatever keeps him going.

Doesn’t look good. In a variety of ways.

But I wish him well, the farting, smoking beast.

He is in shape but doesn't look particularly healthy to me.  Dorian looks quite a bit healthier.  Shawn Ray would probably be the healthiest looking one if he wasn't fat.
