Nice to get a glimpse of Lee at his best. No wonder he won 8 Olympias! That is what bodybuiding is all about!

He was never a freak. His arms and legs never matched the great torso. Anyone relying only on numbers of wins doesn't understand the constant politics and backstories that have always been part of the Weider Olympia. There were a number of BBs on his level that were never allowed to win even once. Dexter's actually a lot more balanced.

So true. The last of his kind. Before the next generation of GH gut monsters fucked everything up.

Where did the comparison to Dexter Jackson come from? This thread is dedicated to a bodybuilding champion that dominated over his peers for almost a decade.
Dexter has his strengths and weaknesses but there where better bodybuilders in awe of Haney, such as Shawn Ray, Flex Wheeler and Chris Cormier. All who would mop the floor with Dexter at their bests.

Why not just open this thread and appreciate the marvel that is Lee Haney and all the positive things that he has done for the sport.

Calm down and reread, someone else brought up Jackson.

This whole theory that the older BBs "would mop the floor"...try not to idolize quite so much. ;)

This is the same clown who (1) actually believes these shows are always fair and (2) actually believes Yates was balanced with good arms lol

Huh? Dexter competed against all the bodybuilders I just mentioned that would beat him and he got beat by all of them.

Same guy keeps pretending that shows are above board while being entirely unable to  explain the 1981 debacle using any established judging criteria. Franco loves him for his naivete. The result was entirely due to the promoter Schwarzie's decision to support his buddy.

Same guy who claims 2001 Ronnie dominated by losing the entire prejudging , you pick & choose what is a fair contest and what's not

So, please, educate us.  

Go year by year for Haney's reign, and explain to us who was more deserving than Haney on that particular year, and the reasons why they "weren't allowed to win."

That's on you. Learn some history. Start with 1981 the year that befuddles ND, his weak excuses and any believable theory that the shows are legit. Then look at some of the decisions in the 70s and 90s involving Yates.  

I'm not saying that Haney didn't deserve his wins, because the guys he beat in those years in weak fields relative to the 70s or 90s weren't great. But to then obsess on the number of his wins over weak competition as well as the fact that various great BBs were never allowed to win even once is a little much.

83 Olympia with really pronounced imbalances he did not deserve a placing above Bertil Fox. This was a good indication of the BS seen in some shows.

As usual you can't offer up one shred of evidence or proof just type ' see ' no cognizant explanation why just ' see ' I told you before I wasn't there in 81 and there is very limited pictures and no video that I have seen and based on that I think Danny looks much better but that's way to limited to claim someone should have lost or won if you're comfortable making hasty decisions based on limited resources it shows your bias and preference which we know is how you base contest placings anyway

Still never explained why the Weider's handpicked a pasty British guy with a very un-aesthetic physique as the poster boy of the IFBB , you can't offer up an explanation oh how this would increase the bottom line , if that was their intentions as you so love to claim

ND was so befuddled and unable to explain 1981 that he started a thread on another forum. Nuff said. ;D
