Mike Morris competing at Olympia Wild card show, DRUG FREE
« on: October 06, 2005, 04:12:23 PM »
I was with IFBB Pro Mike Morris yesterday at Gold's in Venice. He was in town vistiting from his new residence in Arizona. We did a photo shot and got some footage for the DVD series. Mike has been clean since May and is looking really good considering he is  Drug free. He was 218lbs when we shot and feels he will come in around 210lbs. Keep an eye out for an Interview I am doing with Mike that goes into why he is drug free and a hole lot more on the situation. Mike is a cool cat, and has a real love for the sport. All the bst Mighty Mike

Wow! That’s big news.  Mike is probably my favorite pro, but it’s hard to picture him drug free after seeing  him in pix like this.  What gives?  Where and when will this interview appear?

Hey mate!

We did the pics for the interview yesterday, we will sit down and do the rest of the interview portion after the Mr. Olympia. Mike always speaks his mind so it should be a good read. I don't want to go into why Mike's natural as he will do that in the interview.

Mike is a great guy and desrves all the fans he has, he is a one of a kind in this sport!

Guy,

210lbs...hard to imagine Mike so much lighter!  Can't wait to see him at this weight!  Hope he wins the qualifier!

Mike's a very cool cat and i wish him all the best!!!

Yeah, it was a little strange at first as Mike is such a dense guy. He looks the same, but a smaller version. His shape looks a lot beter as his waist has come in quite a lot. His rear lat spread is a strong pose now as his waist being smaller changes quite a bit. He is very focused as always and looking forward to a new chapterin in his. If anyone has the chance to speak with Mike, take the oppurtunity and you will walk away thinking what a nice guy he is. A good rep for the sport with his attude towards the fans and the sport

Sounds like Mike was trying to save money on contest prep.

I think Mike is an excellent bodybuilder, but it certainly sounds strange to call him "Drug Free" after four months without drugs.

I talked to him at XSport in Chicago a while back.  One of the nicest pro's out there.

I see him in Chicago regularly.  I spotted him at the same gym about 2 weeks ago and he looked quite a bit smaller (arms were still huge), now I guess I know why.

yeah, for many pros, it seems coming in "natural" is the step that comes right before 'going into the real estate business' which means working at Ballys training overweight housewives.

His legs are still impresive, not as big and full as they were back in the day pf course, they have striations and a lot of quality to say the least. All the best!

Yep, just like Flex Wheeler when he made his comeback drug free...

 ::)

Or wait, maybe drug free like Tom Prince was for his last show...

Now, he might be drug free for a few weeks prior to the show, or he might be on very low doses, but let's not play games with the kiddies' minds...

Can we safely conclude that Mike is soon to retire from competition? I’ll miss his sense of humor.  :D

I know whats up.  Mike is a good dude. You see, When shit happens at least he still has the love for it and doesn`t just give up and retire when not on drugs.

How many others can say that?   The man loves training and bodybuilding.   Countless others cannot do this.

I heard about another pro getting kidney failure, but they would not say who. Could it be Mike Morris since he has decided to go natural... /B.

I heard Mike's liver function was low early in the year.  He wasn't going to compete again, but since his dream was to be on the Olympia stage he's going for it natural.  Good luck to him.   8)

Mike looked very, very good as a LH. I wouldn't be surprised if he does better drug-free, as crazy as that sounds. His waist will be way smaller.

It's like Dennis James' belly with Kamali's arms.

I'm sure he'll do fine without gear.
