Title: Nasser El Sonbaty - Uncrowned 1997 Mr O!

Sucks when he said "I was so close, but not there" in 97. Nasser, you won the 97 Olympia, no question.

Anyhow, I am not very up to date with 90s lore. Was Nasser actually a super intelligent guy and if so, why was this the case? More importantly, was he really GH15?

The front of a god with a hint of mobile one on the shoulders and bis, and the back of an amateur bodybuilder competing in a teen contest was competing against Dorian who was more complete albeit less aesthetic from the front. It was close but I think the right man won.

Sorry. Nope.

P.S. I hung and lifted with Nasser. He was reasonably friendly, I guess, but without much in any way of a personality.

In the annals of history he is among the most beautiful of bespectacled men. Dorian Yates won the 1997 Mr. Olympia without question. Without controversy. Nasser was even better in 1998. Perhaps his best showing ever. Unfortunately for him, Ronald Dean Coleman finally arrived. God bless you Nasser. May you be enjoying the fruits of 72 virgins whilst looking down on us all.

yep, Mr Olympia that year front and side, couldn't win the Npc Californina from behind, similar to strydom, sitting there watching it was like how could they lose, then they turned around and it was like where did they go.  No hate both good guys with good physiques, Yates looked terrible but still deserved to win. Just to good from the rear, even if he was beaten  front and side, it was a comparison, from the rear there was no comparison.

Now he's just sonbaty we used to know.


I thought it was a somewhat close contest until I saw this video:



I'm not sure Dorian could have hidden his flaws & injuries any better.

I'm sure it looked even more obvious looking at it live in person as well.

I saw him up close and live during his best era in the 90's.
From the front and side he was the uncrowned Mr O at least once.
However, his upper back lacked separation and looked flat in a back dbl bi.
It was a glaring weakness and was obvious in a back dbl bi.

Nobody with a major body part weakness should win the OLympia.
I don’t know... despite some obvious oil in his arms Nasser looked light years better than Dorian from the front and side.
Many have won Olympia’s with glaring weaknesses... Franco with no legs, Dexter with no calves, Dorian with no arms and Dickerson with no morals....

Yes, you're correct , you judge the best on stage and nobody is perfect or without some flaw.
However, as a (former)AAU and NPC judge Nasser was never the best overall physique on stage during any Olympia.
Others differ with that and let's be honest here. Nasser and the other top Olympians of the 90's were incredible.
So, it's not crazy or far fetched to make a case for  Nasser at the  '97 Olympia. It was close that yr.

FYI, Franco never should have won in 1981 with 1 decent leg. I wouldn't have had him top 5 that yr.
That was the worst pick in Olympia history.

Dexter was the best on the 2008 stage at the Olympia and Arnold classic. He was the best in the line up that yr.
I was at that Arnold can tell you while his calves  are a tad weak, they look ripped and don't detract (much) from his overall physique.

Fair enough👍🏼

Dorian had no arms, odd looking quads, his back was his only stand out body part

I would take Dorian's triceps, forearms, calves, hams and shoulders anyday.
His torn biceps should have cost him but he was much more than his back.
His arms were pretty good before being torn!

I'm saying Nasser's arms looked ridiculous.  When someone pulls a double bi and both biceps / triceps have basically lost all detail, they've gone too far.

I won't comment on which is better because the fact is, one is injured arms that really shouldn't have been competing and the other are retardedly fake arms.  His right arm is the worst, look at it, it looks basically infected, it is so swollen from shit.

Neither should have won. 

Look at how good he looks aside from that.  Totally unnecessary.  Not that I think he didn't win because of the obvious oil.  We all know why he didn't win.  The antiquated "dethrone the champion" bullshit.

If I had to pick the lesser evil, I pick Dorian - but I view oiled up physiques in a very "sport cheat" type of perspective.  Others may disagree.

Always the same cherry-picked pictures from a bad angle. Dorian beat Nasser live when it counted, except for a few poses but it's not a (oily) biceps contest.

The guy had bigorexia, he had great arm genetics
Long muscle bellies, roundness and good peak.
He just wasn't healthy in the head,  too insecure I guess.
Watched a recent Dorian interview, when asked about his views on Nasser, he said he never liked the guy, Nasser was a twofaced, insincere guy.
Dorian on the otherhand is an extremely smart and solid guy.
BTW in the last picture he definitely has oil in those arms but hiss long muscle bellies holding those stuff suprisingly well.

the irony too your post is why do ANY of us that have actually lifted weights, competed in competitions or just flat out drastically changed our physiques over the years?

You’ll find the answer within your Post each and everyone of US has some type of issue or insecurities...just depends too what extreme we are talking about.

the irony too your post is why do ANY of us that have actually lifted weights, competed in competitions or just flat out drastically changed our physiques over the years?

You’ll find the answer within your Post each and everyone of US has some type of issue or insecurities...just depends too what extreme we are talking about.
You are right but one thing is sure, he was never as smart as hr was credited for.
He went overboard with oil on his shoulders, arms and probably did something fishy to his calves.
He should concentrate on his back, hams and glutes, there is no logic in bringing up your strong points (ESP using synthol and other stupid stuff)

How much did he weigh here? Honestly, this is far more appealing (not to mention healthy) than his prime. No reason Nasser couldn't still be alive, had he stayed within this realm of weight.  ???

nasser died from bigorexia, he still had to be overly huge long after his career was over

i sometimes wonder if he won in 97, would he still have felt the need to be huge?  winning the title is something that he could hang his hat on forever, getting 2nd place left him very bitter and maybe he felt he still had something to prove

YATES..might be one of the only guys to do side tricep shot and pull back other leg that  which shows how massive his calves were..

I’ve seen Levrone hit it like that too. Back in the 1994 era
