Nasser = Uncrowned Mr Olympia between 1965-2010. Although Nasser was not competing in the 60's, 70's and 80's, he still should have won the Mr. Olympia.

Noone dominated the world like Nasser in the past 4-5 decades.

Chris had a great physique and deserved at least 2 Arnolds

More complete than his contemporaries however didn't posses that wow or freaky factor

, not short, had calves, no gut some of the best abs in the day (better than Dorian,Ronnie and Cutler's abs), his quads made up for lack of sheer quantity with almost near perfect lines and cuts, his back was top five in a HEAVY field of competitors, chest shoulders and arms were all in porportion not much more you want to take or give to make it balanced but just makes you think how sick Ronnie, Levrone and Flex were back in the day. I always think that he shitted on cutler ...fuggin robbery.

Cormier was one of the best, his time is pretty much done.

Hulkotron · « **Reply #12 on:** April 08, 2010, 09:07:11 PM »

For all the "lazy" accusations that get thrown around about him, Cormier was very strong in the gym. There are some videos of him lifting pretty heavy.

Always one of my favourites I think he had better balance than Coleman (and Dorian) but perhaps missed the wow factor.

Cormier was great in 1999, but Coleman crushed everyone.

Cormier could have been an Olympia winner. Too bad. He's a cool as dude though. The guy that sold me my car is best friends with him. I didn't believe him till he pulled out his phone and called Chris on speed dial and I spoke to him myself. lol.

It was probably cool to Chris as well. That someone out of the blue, knew who he was was or followed bbing.

pics of the CC v Jay Cutler need to be posted.

Chris got fucked. He should have beaten Jay the year Jay came in all stringy looking like shit. Other times also.

I agree he had an amazing build in a time when people where looking for freaks the Ronnie style build.
I think he would have done very well with that shape build in the late 80s early 90s

He had the type of physique one could visually keep adding muscle to and it would still look proportional...and that may have been his undoing...physique wise that is.

Nope. Sorry to say but as good as Chris was, Flex Wheeler out muscled him head to toe and was that much better.
