Since you've competed as a pro, I was wondering what your opinion would be on this. Do you believe Vic Richards here (who is 5'9") weighed 275 lbs in contest shape? ND thinks so. I would put him more at 230ish. What's your estimate? Thanks.

He might have been heavy-boned.

Bones don't make that much difference in weight.

He is somewhere between 200 and 300 pounds depending on multiple factors.

What does "nowhere near" mean in your opinion? 250? 265? 215? Vic Richards was probably one of the most massive bodybuilders to have ever existed, way ahead of the size curve for the era he was involved in bodybuilding. I'd say he could have come in pretty damn close to 270 in contest shape. Is 250 not close enough for you?

he was no different than any of the mass guys of his day as much as he wanted everyone to believe he was, he'd have probably competed at around 240.

Maybe so but he still fucking dwarfed everyone. He was fucking huge. To deny that is lunacy.

More likely would have been in the 240's if he were ever dieted down to contest shape

never said he wasn't but the legends about this guy seem to get more ridiculous as the years pass, 5 years from now people will be saying, "you should have seen Vic Richards, if he chose to compete he'd have been 380 onstage at 5'9"

You mis-quoted mesomorph now you're mis-qouting me , I said he was NOT in contest shape in that pic and I also said he was never in ' contest shape ' because he never competed , again if you're going to quote me do it correctly and not make up shit to support your claim

http://www.vicrichards.com/index2.htm 240? I think he'd be a lot closer to 270 than you want to admit. The guy was fucking huge, probably one of the most genetically gifted bodybuilders ever to step on stage. Even moreso than Flex Wheeler and with probably have the drug use.

Yeah. He probably figured what's the point? He'd destroyed them all! Have you seen him today Bob? He's HUGE! Much bigger than you.
