Bodybuildings biggest sulk, the man who believes he is an uncrowned mr olympia
Standing 5'7 and weighing a meagre 210 lbs with all the drugs flowing through his veins, he didn't even have a normal job, yet could only muster being 200 - 210 on stage with 18 inch arms.

the back double bi comparison is hilarious I have to admit.

and I am a huge fan of both of these guys. but ronnie is crushing him.

still, shawn was amazing, 210 pounds or not:

If he was 260 pounds looking like this, he blows Ronnie off the stage.

Being 196, however, just doesn't cut it.

Better question would be, does he beat David Henry?

his 87 nationals winning physique at 199 would give david henry trouble and whole 202 class. another class after he starts placing top 5 O. in other words with ami running the O now, he would have had his 1 or 2 Os.

shawn would whip the 202 lbs class if there was one during his time

Close call but I think Shawn still wins. Shawn got alot of Top 5 placings against bigger bodybuilders at the O. When Henry goes against bigger guys his placings arent very good and has never placed well at the O

yes,henry is great and put a lot of size and effort to be top of 202,but he was a sm middleweight,shawn was a full light heavy in shape at 20!!!!his fullness all around relaxed and flexed would beat henry and legs alone give ray the nod.

Pecs · « **Reply #17 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:50:00 AM »

Up till now... a prime shawn>>>>> prime henry

El Diablo Blanco · « **Reply #18 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:54:38 AM »

Those were the days. When bodybuilders actually looked good.

I prefer Shawn's build but Henry is a monster for sure.

I think Henry has a smaller waist too but is shorter.

If shawn could add more thickness to his back and bring up his arms a little.. then he would be the clear cut winner.

As of right now I don't think anyone can compare to Henry from the back.

Good back shot of Shawn!

challenge · « **Reply #21 on:** August 18, 2009, 08:25:28 AM »

More more thing... if Shawn was competing today he would be mr. Olympia without a doubt in my book!

Yes.

David's lines don't flow as nicely & Ray had better overall proportions & aesthetics...although they're close.

NO... not a David Henry in condition... no way. Too much freaky muscle at 202...

Not that it'll ever happen, but I'd like to see the 202 O prize money reach $100,000+, and have Shawn make a comeback (since he said he wouldn't comeback for anything less $-wise).

How about will Lee Priest be able to hang with David Henry (assuming he comes back)?

Wiggs · « **Reply #24 on:** August 18, 2009, 08:46:15 AM »

Don't ever compare that angry little midget to the great Shawn Ray. Not even close. Henry can't even crack the top 6 for the Mr. O and Shawn has done it every year of his career minus the first time.

Not a valid comparision.
