[NaturalWonder83]

[JohnnyVegas]

There is no controversy here, Arnold won........ with the legs of a chicken from KFC.

[QuakerOats]

he was 205 pounds at 6'1" at that show.

Vince Basille from this site was front and center and took this photo that has been published in several mags.

Im sure your legs probably dwarf Arnold's, "QuakerOats"

[The Wizard]

that was the last thing he did that was worth anything

[kevcat]

Yeh i still bet his quads and calves were bigger than these people who are calling him bird legs etc
He was the best man at that contest like it or not

[Method101]

Mags said he was 218.

And that photo looks shopped to me. He was a bit more slender than  that, it seemed.

[njflex]

there are some shots where arnold looked like a dry bber with sunken cheeks,rear hard looking with good abs,in 70;s he was lean for that era but massive ,he showed most seperation at 80 but much smaller.

[Bobby]

cut him some slack! he ran out of dbol 5 weeks out

That's what X Factor said when he took his own pics........

218 looks about right. Arnold still had the massive upper body, even at 90%, nd the lack of legs would account for a 15# BW loss.

[Antony77]

Arnold dwarfed Mentzer.

[knny187]

I think roger Walker looked better than most on stage that day

[Antony77]

Roger looked great but was lacking from the back. He had good detail just no width. And Arnolds arms were better by quite a bit .

[knny187]

you're kidding right?

Roger's back killed Arnold by shear density, thickness, & conditioning



& I'm an Arnold fan

[Antony77]

True, Roger had better detail and density but I have to go with Arnold because of his greater width and mass, I mean compare their arms in that last pic.

[Antony77]

Mentzer definitely couldn't have beat Arnold that night but he should have at least placed higher than Zane. Zane deserved 8th at best, he looked like a stick. People dump on Arnolds legs but Zanes are much worse, it looks like the only exercise he bothered using was leg extensions, and his arms are about 15 to 16 inches.
