-
I guess Shawn is not very liked ;D
-
anybody got mike's email addy?
-
By the time I got there he'd gone into a GNC store that was next to Home Depot. I threw that piece of shit around like a rag doll. I put him through every display in there.
I call bullshit, I do.

Question: You struggled with a recreational drug problem for several years, correct?
Answer: "... I wasn't an addict... I was actually self-medicating the anxiety from my ADHD with cocaine. When I used coke, I could read, I could think straight, and I was centered. I thought it made me normal..."

T-Nation: Out of all the men you competed with and met, who were the biggest gentlemen and who were the biggest jerks?
MQ: Almost all the guys were real gentlemen back then: Lee Haney, Lee Labrada, Berry DeMey, Mike Christian, Ron Love, and Bob Paris. Toward the end when I was competing, two European guys, both now dead, struck me as being the same way. That was Andreas Munzer and Momo Benaziza.
The only jerk I knew from my day was Shawn Ray. I was standing next to him once when this young kid, maybe ten or eleven years old, walks up with his mom to Shawn. The kid's mom says her son has Shawn’s pictures up all over his bedroom wall and would love an autograph. Shawn just blew him off and walked away. I felt so bad I gave him one of my photos and signed it. Later I got a letter from the mom saying her son had torn down all of Shawn’s pictures and put mine up.
Tis' true Shawn?
Shame on you if it is!
Can you say "Looza-Ferrigno?"

I hope it is true, and that the kid was Kamali (where is the McDonald's reference though? ???)
Sadly isn't true though. Just some made up shit by Quinn the Eskimo.
Who the hell would want an autograph and pic with Quinn? LMFAO. Great calves mang!
Shawn Ray doesn't seem like a great guy. I don't give a fcuk. since when was this a personality contest?
If that was the case, Shawn Ray probably wouldn't be one of the greatest ever. ;D

Hey,why you dont have blue stars.You are IFBB PRO now.You won Fit form and Spain.
Amigo.Tienes que quejar a Moderator sobre este.
Vas a salir Santa Suzana??

Yea, Quinn seems like a credible source for EXACT info, was this before or after he got out of Rehab?
Mike and I never were friends, he was the Tamali of his day so would I expect him to say anything nice, ah.......No.
End story, the kid might have been Tamali and he grew up in the basement to rear his ugly head in the early 2000's. How quickly he's disappeared after the layoffs at Micky Deeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
There's always a Clown to step up and relpace another.

I have to Admit that Mike Quinn was the true badboy of bodybuilding. He wasn't trying to be a bad ass. He was one naturally. Forget Craig titus and all those bad boy wanna be's. Mighty mike was the Original. period. I just hope he come back to bodybuilding again
-

I couldn't help but notice that myself. What a fu.cked up thing to do Shawny! :-\
-
If you were in the sport ans some 21 year old beat everyone at the Arnold, you'd be talk ish about them too...Mike Quinn is a junkie, now we believe what junkies say ?? hahahha
-
Mike is not a junkie. He trains people, works for a friend of mine and is a family man now. Living in the Coral Springs area, he has mellowed as naturally happens for many who grow up and older.
-
Shawn Ray's an asshole, stop the presses.
Is there anyone that didn't already know this?
-
Dooooooooooooooooooooooo oh! :o

i saw the same shit happen at the 91 olympia in orlando florida. shawn i think was coming out of the press con or something and a kid asked him for an autograph and shawn said "sorry i gotta go eat".
he may be a diff guy now but that im sure killed the kid and i knew it as a fact from watching shawn was a cock back then.
-
also saw mike at the fashion mall in south florida like 4 months ago or more. he looked like a fat power lifter.
-
matt, get real. the kid had a pic and a pen ready to go and shawn said no. busy, leaving the press con? it aint a case of getting mobbed either, there was really no onme else standing around.

Why is everybody comparing Titus to Mike Quinn? Mike has a conscience and seems like a good guy. Titus is just a criminal junky and organizer of orgy parties.
Shawn already got his ass handed to him by Flex all of those years so hahaha little Ray never got to where he could'a been!
Also Derrem Charles was a natural as a pro? My inspiration. I read Melvin was aslo natural for a while and competed at natural shows.
-
"... organizer of orgy parties..." Case dismissed! Titus for President!

You like men on men action? :-\

XXX, you've been going to the wrong orgies. I'll make sure you get an invite to the next one. ;)
(or-gy) A secret rite in the cults of ancient Greek or Roman deities, typically involving frenzied singing, dancing, drinking, and sexual activity.

Oh yea, and once when I was at Band Camp I ignored a little ole lady who wanted to talk shop with me about how to get rid of wrinkles.
Doooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh! :o

Titus had calves.
Mike Quinn? :D
Quinn the Eskimo had as much calves as Shahriar Kamali had forearms.
Or 21'' biceps...

years ago Mighty Mike Quinn walked up to a friend of mine in atlanta and said " I'm Mike Quinn and Im putting you out of business"...and walked away...Mike was ran out of town not soon after...
The guy is a f cking joke...All bark and no bite...Got his ass handed to him more then once...
He hung out with Vinny P and some other tuff bastards and thought he was one of them...He is a douche in every sense of the word...
-
No, Mike is not a douche. he is a good guy. Many people have issues, he has worked through many of them - some publickly, some not. He does not compete anymore, traims cuz he loves it. No interest it the competition part otherwise he might of jumped in the Ny Masters show..maybe next year...
