SAMIR - 1984 Olympia

[Hulkster]

YES, he WAS. In fact he surpassed it in 1990 by FAR, but was overlooked. Pictures speak for themselves.

he won a grand prix show in 90. was this from it?

Yes. He looked incredible that show. Shredded and full.

[Tennisballz]

At his best, he was flawless. Just sheer perfection imho.

I agree here.  He is a great example of legs that match the upper body perfectly.  This guy achieved just the right amount of muscle to look big yet not look like he "played the size game".  He does look like a greasy salesman though.

Samir and Lee

Certainly Samir was not as good as in 1983, but 6th place was not correct.

1985 was the changing of the guard so to speak, where physiques began taking a different look all together - new wave of hormone protocols

same with rock music

took a nose dive in 85 and got revived a bit with grunge in the early 90s

Well, see where you were going with this, but wouldn't go as far as saying that Grunge revived rock. Two incredibly different genres with different musical traits.

However, it's the closest any genre other than 2000s pop punk came to reviving rock...

If I were a joo, then yes, I probably would have been.  LOL.
