He was doing a 20/20 interview about a year ago.  His photo was hanging among those on the wall of Victor's athletes that he showed off.  I thought it was pretty telling.  There's always the possibility that all he did was work with Mike on things like protein timing and zinc/magnesium properties.

There was also a MD interview with pics and in one of the pics an autographed Mike Ashley 8 * 10 is framed on the wall. Funny!

Does anyone have pics of the 1990 Olympia where they implemented drug testing?  I just read on another thread that Lee haney was a shadow of his former self, and I remember that Labrada looked like he should have won.  Anyone have pics from this show?  (90 was the year, correct?)
It was 90 and I remember watching it I think on ESPN Live and thought Mike Christian should have won Haney was smaller and smooth and did not look good at all Labrada should have been 2nd and Haney it least 3rd

That year Mike christian also looked good (for me better than Haney in 1990). Normally Christian or
Labrada deserved to win the 1990 Mr. Olympia. Haney kept the title because he was the undefeated champ since 1984.
But honestly that contest was not a "drug free competition", it was simple, "how to deal with the test situation". 1991 Haney was comming back at absolute best. Why test when everybody knows that all where the most time of the year "on the juice" ?

[WOOO]

I passed the test at the Olympia in 90 and finished 3rd at 204lbs.
I've never tested positive for Deca.
Just the facts
