Title: 1975 SERGE NUBRET REASON FOR LOSING TO ARNOLD REVEALED!!!!!

Quote from: mtwain on July 25, 2006, 02:17:03 PM
I first saw Serge in Pumping Iron when I was just a kid. A friend of mine who was an Arnold fan and just got his driving license took me to see the movie. I didn't know much about bodybuilding and didn't have a trained eye. In other words, I couldn't really see much of a difference between Arnold, Lou, Franco, Katz, Waller.... Franco seemed more stocky than the others but everybody just looked huge and freaky. I couldn't see how anybody could tell how one was better than the other. Then when they introduced the "unexpected entry" as they zoomed in on Serge's abs as it rose and contracted as he breathed my jaw just dropped! I just turned to my friend and said, "My God! Look at that guy!" This guy to me was different. He stood out. To say Serge was stunning only understates the case. Standing relaxed (That's it, Serge. That's the position we want.) he had that look of noble magnificence that inspired pure awe to my virgin bodybuilding eyes. I wanted to tell Arnold, "He looks like he can take you." 

I wonder, Serge, what your opinion of Arnold was. Although most of us, including myself, are fans of Arnold we know that he has a dark side. So don't hold back. Give us the real dirt. I figure if I was competing at that time I would have hated him. It's like he controlled everything.


THAT IS ARNOLD, HE LIKE TO CONTROL PEOPLE, BUT NOT ME, AND HE KNEW IT.
WITH ME ARNOLD HAS BEEN A VERY GOOD FREIND IN THE SPORT, BUT NOT IN
POLITIC OF THE SPORT FIRST, AS I DID CREATED MY OWN INTERNATIONAL
FEDERATION "WABBA" BECAUSE I WAS NOT AGREED WITH THE WAY "IFBB" WAS
RUNNING BY WEIDER IN SOME DICTATORIAL WAY. BUT ARNOLD DID NOT EVEN
CARE, AS FARE HE CARE ABOUT HIMSELF, HE WAS WEIDER BEST FREIND.
POLITIC...POLITIC..AS GOVERNOR, IT IS NOT MY WAY TO SEE THE WORLD AS
BUSH SSEING IT. I CANNOT BELEIVE WHAT HE SAID ABOUT "U.N" UNITED
NATION. ANYWAY THAT IS HIS PROBLEM.

YES I HAVE BEING TRAINING IN SOME WAY THAT I WILL NOT LOOK LIKE ANY
BODY ELSE AND TRY TO BE UNIC. BUT YOU MUST KNOW THAT IN SOUTH AFRICA
WHERE THE CONTEST WAS HELDED, WHEN THE WEIDER'S TEAM SAW ME THEY
SUSPENDED ME OF THE COMPETION, IT IS ONLY 12 DAYS LATER, AFTER ALL THE
COUNTRIES SAID THAT IF "SERGE NUBRET" IS SUSPENDED, NOBODY WILL COMPETE
SO AFTER 12 DAYS OF NEGOCIATIONS WEIDER HAS TO ADMIT THAT HE LOSS, I DO
NOT KNOW IF ARNOLD WAS BEHIND THAT ALL THING. ANYWAY BECAUSE OF THAT I
DID NOT TRAINED FOR 12 DAYS, I LOST 12 POUNDS AND I WAS LESS SHARP. NO
WAY ARNOLD WILL TAKE ME WITH THOSE 12 POUNDS MORE AND MORE SHARP. I AM
WRITING THE ALL STORY IN MY BOOK, AND MORE ABOUT ARNOLD.

SERGE NUBRET

Now somebody be nice enough and go get all the pics of serge from that thread on ironage.us especially the 19 year old one and paste them here thanks!

You fucking idiot.  forearms are either built from drugs or they exist because of bone structure.

Plus, forearms actually throw off the whole physique. Serge had and has perfect arms, top to bottom.

Nubret is just being a crybaby in need of attention and trying to make a buck. Nubret was great and all, but Arnold had the best physique; it's not even debatable, even he knows it.

well my mate has a history of competing at Squash, and as a result has insane forarms. Forarm muscle is still muscle not 'bone'!!!??

I am also tall with no forearms like yourself, but I can admit a poor forarm work ethic cos who cares about em anyway!! lol

I can tell he lifted weights, and he most certainly does not look worse than the average 60 yr old.

Would Serge have won in '75 if that story hadn't happened (if it even did), who knows? But I believe these are the pics of what he looked like a few weeks before the alleged incident and he DOES look monstrous for Serge (yet, his waist is as small as ever).

Compare this to what he looked like in the contest and it's pretty impressive:

In this case Nubret is fooling himself.  Arnold was bigger and had a better overall physqiue if you are comparing size, shape, and condition in various poses. 

Nubret had a FANTASTIC physique but to say Arnold would not have beaten him is silly.

Read Arnold's encyclopedia of bodybuilding.  He has many forearm and wrist exercises.  Try a few on off days.  Muscles that don't get hit during the normal 4 split are screaming.  I just call it scrambled eggs day.  Abbs, forearms and wrists, maby some extra calf raises,  all the major groups were already fried from the previous week.  That's when wrist curls, forearm raises, bell ringers and allot of obscure exercises for advanced lifters.  But my point, when all else is equal the better forearms and wrists could be the deciding factor.

In pumping iron they said “an unexpected entrée”

A few years back in MMI, Serge claimed that the Weiders spread a rumor about Serge appearing in a Gay porn film and they couldn't allow a gay man in their contest. I seem to remember something about Serge saying he ate candy and had an all out binge and then when the Weiders saw him again in not such good shape, they decided that Serge could compete after all.
I have no idea if it's legit or not, but I know that it seems far fetched! ::)

Neither sergio or serge nubret could touch 1974 arnold.  Arnold was clearly the best on stage in 1975.  Perhaps serge could have been better if something happened the last 12 days but I doubt it would have been enough to beat arnold.  Those pics above from 74 are amazing!
I'm sure the Weiders pulled some shots but arnold was the best between 73 and 75 without a question.

In all fairness to arnold...those pics you see of him at the beach was right after open heart surgery and being hospitalized.  Some idiot photographer took the pic and it was sensationalized.  He was in great shape again a few months later.  Even in the post hospital state near 60, you can see he has a big structure/wide shoulders, etc.

Serge had a fantastic physique and looked phenominal in his later years...something I hope we'll see continue with BBers from our era.

Actually it was after he had rotator cuff surgery that was done after T3. He hurt it during the fliming of T3. Either way, he still looks great. Funny thing is he always about 8 weeks away from making all of us look bad.  ;D

Would Serge have won in '75 if that story hadn't happened (if it even did), who knows? But I believe these are the pics of what he looked like a few weeks before the alleged incident and he DOES look monstrous for Serge (yet, his waist is as small as ever).

Compare this to what he looked like in the contest and it's pretty impressive:

Serge does look better in the first pics but it makes me think of how Dennis James looks like a few weeks out before the big day.

Great observation! Damn he looks crazy in those pictures but Arnold still had the size. We will never know I guess. :(

I first saw Serge in Pumping Iron when I was just a kid. A friend of mine who was an Arnold fan and just got his driving license took me to see the movie. I didn't know much about bodybuilding and didn't have a trained eye. In other words, I couldn't really see much of a difference between Arnold, Lou, Franco, Katz, Waller.... Franco seemed more stocky than the others but everybody just looked huge and freaky. I couldn't see how anybody could tell how one was better than the other. Then when they introduced the "unexpected entry" as they zoomed in on Serge's abs as it rose and contracted as he breathed my jaw just dropped! I just turned to my friend and said, "My God! Look at that guy!" This guy to me was different. He stood out. To say Serge was stunning only understates the case. Standing relaxed (That's it, Serge. That's the position we want.) he had that look of noble magnificence that inspired pure awe to my virgin bodybuilding eyes. I wanted to tell Arnold, "He looks like he can take you." 

I wonder, Serge, what your opinion of Arnold was. Although most of us, including myself, are fans of Arnold we know that he has a dark side. So don't hold back. Give us the real dirt. I figure if I was competing at that time I would have hated him. It's like he controlled everything.


THAT IS ARNOLD, HE LIKE TO CONTROL PEOPLE, BUT NOT ME, AND HE KNEW IT.
WITH ME ARNOLD HAS BEEN A VERY GOOD FREIND IN THE SPORT, BUT NOT IN
POLITIC OF THE SPORT FIRST, AS I DID CREATED MY OWN INTERNATIONAL
FEDERATION "WABBA" BECAUSE I WAS NOT AGREED WITH THE WAY "IFBB" WAS
RUNNING BY WEIDER IN SOME DICTATORIAL WAY. BUT ARNOLD DID NOT EVEN
CARE, AS FARE HE CARE ABOUT HIMSELF, HE WAS WEIDER BEST FREIND.
POLITIC...POLITIC..AS GOVERNOR, IT IS NOT MY WAY TO SEE THE WORLD AS
BUSH SSEING IT. I CANNOT BELEIVE WHAT HE SAID ABOUT "U.N" UNITED
NATION. ANYWAY THAT IS HIS PROBLEM.

YES I HAVE BEING TRAINING IN SOME WAY THAT I WILL NOT LOOK LIKE ANY
BODY ELSE AND TRY TO BE UNIC. BUT YOU MUST KNOW THAT IN SOUTH AFRICA
WHERE THE CONTEST WAS HELDED, WHEN THE WEIDER'S TEAM SAW ME THEY
SUSPENDED ME OF THE COMPETION, IT IS ONLY 12 DAYS LATER, AFTER ALL THE
COUNTRIES SAID THAT IF "SERGE NUBRET" IS SUSPENDED, NOBODY WILL COMPETE
SO AFTER 12 DAYS OF NEGOCIATIONS WEIDER HAS TO ADMIT THAT HE LOSS, I DO
NOT KNOW IF ARNOLD WAS BEHIND THAT ALL THING. ANYWAY BECAUSE OF THAT I
DID NOT TRAINED FOR 12 DAYS, I LOST 12 POUNDS AND I WAS LESS SHARP. NO
WAY ARNOLD WILL TAKE ME WITH THOSE 12 POUNDS MORE AND MORE SHARP. I AM
WRITING THE ALL STORY IN MY BOOK, AND MORE ABOUT ARNOLD.

SERGE NUBRET

Now somebody be nice enough and go get all the pics of serge from that thread on ironage.us especially the 19 year old one and paste them here thanks!
Serge was great. Very defined and very muscular.

Bill Pearl!

Bill Pearl has and so did Leo Stern commented on Bill's use of Halo and Test. I also believe he used DBol.

Bill Pearl is not clean through out his career.

Sure, but Serge wasn't so tiny that he placed third, he did get second place ahead of Lou. Given that, look at the two most-musculars in those pics (one form the contest and one in the gym), he's just as cut in the gym but MUCH, MUCH bigger. I think, given that Arnold was down 20+ lbs in '75, Serge in that shape just might have beaten him.

it's hard to say if he could bring that same size and condition to the olympia, there are many shots weeks out from olympia's where bber's look fantastic but come contest day and they have lost it.

You're right Arnold showed up at 235 pounds in 1975. Still from height, size, and width Arnold had him beat. Still I say Serge could've become mr. Olympia in Arnold's absence.

235?  I read somewhere that he weighed about 10 lbs less than that.  How much did he weigh in '74?

Here is what Serge Nubret had to say about those pictures!

Quote
The first and the third one have been from the Mr Olympia 1975 with only a body weight of 90 kg and the second and fourth was in California at Gold's, with a body weight of 96 kg. When I arrived in South Africa I looked like that, but when Weider saw me i decided to disqualify me, you can see why!...Anyway 12 days later, after Weider's decision I had 6 kg less and less cut, because I stoped training.

Awesome! Look at the difference there! He WAS much bigger and given that Arnold had bad legs in '75, I'd say Serge had a good shot looking like that to take the contest.

He thinks he lost 6 kg in 12 days from not training?? And why did he stop  training?

Maybe he was depresed that Weider wouldn't let him compete.

well Arnold lost more than 12 pounds because of the film Stay hungry and still looked better than you.....You didn't have legs at all in proportion to your upper body,while Lou  had a complete package...Serge should have been 3rd with those chicken legs of his!!!
