Look at the wrist and calf measurements..LOL

[MCWAY]

exactly, i love how Victor tried to get people to believe he was some kind of superhuman science experiment and was so genetically superior that no human who ever lived ever came close to him, hahahaha, he was 5'9" 270lbs., big deal. not only that but he was one of the narrowest heavyweight bb'ers i've ever seen.

Tell that to Rich Gaspari.

[sarcasm]

Tell that to Rich Gaspari.

tell what to Rich Gaspari?

[MCWAY]

tell what to Rich Gaspari?

That no one could get close to Vic Richards.

[sarcasm]

That no one could get close to Vic Richards.

that was my point moron, i was saying that Victor was VERY OVERRATED, sizewise he wouldn't be in the top 10 at the Olympia today.

If you'd read my initial post, you wouldn't have had to ask the question in the first place, GENIUS!!

Do you think he would win mr.O if he competed? Him having an extra Y cromoson (XYY) and producing extra testosterone is that for real? Superhuman.

no he would not win, he is a huge version structurally of shawn ray(long torso, short blocky legs- this statement got me banned from ironage). the extra cromoson sounds like bs. purchasing extra test is what it should say.

Again, it's all speculation, until he actually steps onstage and competed IN CONTEST SHAPE. Again, I can see him getting beat by the likes of guys like of Darrem Charles, Phil Heath, and Melvin Anthony.

You be the judge.

Here is a pic of Vic next Shawn Ray . . . Like him or not, Shawn was a big boy.

And look how  BlockHeaded his  Bones are in that picture.

"There is a story when I was very young and in grade school, the teachers used to complain I was too hyper and aggressive, and my father being a cardiologist had me tested, probed and checked and turns out where the majority of men have a XY chromosome pattern I have a XYY pattern.

You are looking, like WHAT, that means my body produces more testosterone than an average male. That translates to faster muscle growth and continual muscle growth. Hey its not what the doctor prescribed, its what god gave me, so I have made the most of it, that’s what an intelligent man would do."

This shit true?

A lot of retarded people have an extra chromosome.  There have been several studies on this matter in the prison system.  Some believe there is a direct correlation with this chromosomal mutation and the direct link with incredibly LOW INTELLIGENCE and a  HIGH penchant for VIOLENCE

In the early 90īs Vic Richards held a seminar in my country. He was more than half an hour late, and when he came he was very arrogant and looked like he wished he was somewhere else.
He didīnt want to answer any questions, but gave the usual "train hard and eat right speach.
He said there that he ate up to 20.000 calories a day from only CLEAN food!! Total bs!

A few years later Dorian was here in offseason shape (similar to vics) and i can promise you that Vic was NOT near Dorians develpment!! I have NEVER seen bigger calves than Dorians in my life, and he said they were around 21-21,5 inches (he didnt know for sure). So the claim of Vic having 24 inch calves is total bullshit! 

The truth is out there!

Good job at dispelling the myth of Block Bone.

you are absolutely correct man..yates was know for his calves and no way in hell a nobody like vic richards had 24inch calves..also yates was alot wider than vic richards.and thats a fact

[candidate2025]

I think people have spread the myth of this clown long enough.

He DOES NOT LOOK ANY BIGGER than ANY CURRENT PRO!

In fact, He looks smaller.


There is NO WAY he is bigger than COLEMAN or CUTLER.


The ignorant are responsible for spreading the myth of Vic Richards.

no one from the nineties looks bigger than any current pro, jackass.    he would have won the olympia had he competed.
the ignorant are reponsible for your birth.

[Your MAAAAaaaa]

how do you know that?

  Every single number and word on that page/site is absurd.

whats funny, is on that page that is actually Aaron "batman" baker, the queer who runs that muscle worship site put vics head on bakers body (98 noc or olympia i think), vic never got into competition condition.

[Disgusted]

I used to speak to Vic a lot a few years ago and got to know him a little. I never got the impression that he hated to diet. He never said anything bad about any of his peers , to me anyway. He did seem pretty bitter about the fact that Weider was so rich and almost all of the competitors were broke and never got anything back from the sport. He said he never saw the logic in trying to kill yourself over a trophy.

He said the only reason that he turned pro was he used to get a lot of guest posing appearances for NPC shows and a certain someone told the promoters that hiring Vic was taking away from the pros so they were not to hire Vic since he was not a pro.

I once brought up the 30,000 cal story a nd he just laughed. He said it was more like 12,000 and it just got blown out of proportion.

I friend of mine was an old Room mate of his....so thats where I come up with the fact he really hated the cutting down (dieting) side.

So how big was he in person?

I got to know Vic back in 97, he was a really cool cat and pretty damn strong.....I personally saw him step on the scale at 325 with abs.....and yes Adonis, the man was extremely large, you don't know everything bro, just accept it

[Disgusted]

Never met him, we talked on the phone.

i can believe that, he may have been watery but he was at one stage HUGE. BUT NOT 360.

[Hulkster]

he was huge, no doubt.

but the 90's pros would have killed him:

[sarcasm]

Victor looks unbelievably narrow in that shot above, it looks like he's been pushed together from the sides of his body

[chris_mason]

he was huge, no doubt.

but the 90's pros would have killed him:

The problem with your picture comparison is the same problem when we look at Sergio pics.  What someone looks like standing alone can be VASTLY different than when in comparison to someone else.  Victor would have DWARFED Sean Ray had they competed against one another.  Assuming he was in contest shape he would have carried roughly 40-50 lbs more weight at a similar height.
