Think about it.............. if you were attacked by "ninjas" you probably would want to keep it to yourself unless you have someone to back you up cause that's not a normal occurance in 1990's america especially to a bber right before a major bbing contest ::)

If he actually said he was attacked by Ninja's, i agree. Even if the story was true he should have
left that part out. Too hard to believe i guess.
But seriously, did he say at the press conference that he was attacked by ninja's???

"FLEX WHEELER ATTACKED BY NINJAS?

Coming into the 1997 Mr. Olympia, most observers thought reigning Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic champ Flex Wheeler had the best chance of defeating an injury-riddled Dorian Yates. Then, 48 hours before the event, the number-one contender arrived at the host hotel with his left forearm and hand bandaged, claiming that six days prior he had been the victim of an unsuccessful carjacking.

He supposedly knocked out a gun-wielding assailant, and a second foe came at him brandishing nunchakus. Wheeler, a martial artist, said he overwhelmed that man, too, but not before suffering wounds that would keep him out of the Mr. O. Few in the bodybuilding community bought what came to be known as the "ninja story," with most believing Wheeler had concocted it in order to avoid competing out of shape. Tellingly, Wheeler left the incident out of his 2003 autobiography."
