Shawn Ray got robbed twice.  Zane, Dickerson, and Columbo did it - but today, none of them - including Zane - would crack top 3 at an Olympia again.  Zane has perfect lines here but he wouldn't make top 10 looking like this.

That routine was pretty awesome.  A Frank Zane upsized 15% with all the same proportions would look insane.

Thats old news last name who was under 200 was Samir in 1983

In today's world, the only way zane could have upsized 15% - or 30 pounds - would be gh, insulin, and the like.  He'd like just like all the other blocky, small guys.

No man under 240 will ever win the Olympia again. And even that's stretching it.

[Bluto]

im waiting for the time when no man under 300 pounds will ever win the olympia 

[WOOO]

no man under 260 has won it in the last 10 years

[jacshelb]

Ronnie was 245 in 2002 right?

[nycbull]

your forgetting sevestes, he will break the cieling.

[The Coach]

Only if they bring back back weight classes and the overall comparisons are fairly judged and just not on size.

Hi Silvio!

Ronnie was around 250-260 when he first won it

some people predict that the physiques will get smaller in the future, since no one will ever be bigger than Ronnie Coleman

Ronnie in 1998 was 249 pounds , Dorian was 242 pounds !

[MB_722]

samir was under 200? looked slightly heavier

[Knives]

Ronnie in 1998 was 249 pounds , Dorian was 242 pounds !

yeah, that makes sense.  they always claim to be heavier than they really are, so it can get confusing.

I've heard claims of Dorian's weight being 260-270, but at his height, size, and condition 242 sounds more realistic

[Captain Equipoise]

You guys remember when Kovacs was supposed to compete at 395 or some ridiculous weight like thaT?!

[adipo8]

Request a separate division from the IFBB - Tall and short or classes - but you have to request it

[WOOO]

I don't think Shawn Ray competed <200lb. Wasn't he 205-210?

[gh15]

ray would win the o now days if looked like mid 90s at 200-210lb,,frank zane would win the o now days if competed at 200lb,,but thats about it,,you are talking here about guys that has symetry and condition out of this world,only reason ray didnt win is dorian which is a diff leage comparing to current champ

if ron came 100% on no one would win beside ron

Do you think Ron is the best ever?

[marcus]

Do you think Ron is the best ever?

I think it's pretty much fact at this point.

Previously you said Labrada was better than shawn; so y wont Labrada win an O??
You always conflict with yourself with time,, that shows what kind of insecure fake you are

Not a meltdown but insulting people’s intelligence and taking people for granted is a act of desperation

Huge Jackman was 200lb in X-men, practically every guy on the street weighs this these days. Zane was great but no-one would tolerate a Mr O smaller than most highschool guys who lift in this day and age when over 1 million American teenagers are juiced.

[webcake]

Yeah 200lbs and shredded is fairly big, but come on, we're talking about the Olympia here. The O is the best of the best, and in turn, also the biggest of the big. No Olympia winner has been under 200lbs for like 20+ years. So this isn't much of a revelation really.
