Which could be the reason why Lee Haney called him "Flea Lebrada...but he did give him props at the 1993 Arnold Classic.

Where he weighed in at 195 pounds. He had gradually put on size over the years.

This question comes up every now and then but the explanation given was that his birth certificate said 1938 but that the 8 was half erased and looked like a 0.  Also, apparently Albert himself was unsure of his actual birth date.

Okay, I understand being off by 1 or 2 years (same dispute with Joe Weider being born in 1919 or 1920), but not knowing if you were born at the beginning of the decade or at the end of it is ridiculous. I was born in 1977. For me to be a grown adult and say, well, I'm not sure if I was born in 1969 or 1977 is absurd.

Labrada is someone who makes contact with the audience, has a good overall muscle control, makes his poses slow on a confident and non arrogant way. How many today 'pro s' have all of these qualities inside?

Kai Greene? ;D

Ronnie weighed the combined weight of Labrada, Kawak and Benaziza!

K, maybe not, but you know what I mean...
