Some Unseen Shots from Mr. Olympia 97!!..

So, the point is that Dorian was still better than Nasser.

End of discussion.

[The Grim Lifter]

Dorian's density is light years ahead of Nasser.

Can't inject that Nasser.

[HugeAl]

Dorian has no arm at all and a disgusting, bloated belly. His quads are even narrow, despite being 'big'. Giving a Sandow to that over Nasser's superior flow, symmetry and aesthetics set the shocking precedent that has led to the most unappealing, vile, unsymmetrical blob that gets the best conditioning, winning.

[Jaime]

Lee Priest looks the best. Everyone else looks way off. Dorian looks like a bloated sack of shit like normal.

[Papper]

For a mr olympia dorian does not look good here.

hi nasser

[Agent69]

i agree nasser was not close to his best here.. still deserved to win with the horrible shape yates came in!!..

Ya Dorian is terrible--i mean look at his conditioning and size-  

pics never did dorian any justice--
i was at this show sitting in the 5 th row-When Dorian came out and it was pretty much game OVER !!!!!!
Plain and simple-Nassers back was soft and flat and shitty lat spead-like nothing happens when he turns around except=damn his back still sucks-_ and he does looks good from the front thats it
Lee Preist looked very good in this show-


Get your head out of the past this was 15 years ago--

[IceCold]

yates easily dominates.

not his best showing but too much mass and conditioning like always.

[doriancutlerman]

Nasser destroys Yates in all but a few back poses. Even then, Nasser's back is decent and nowhere near as bad as some people try to claim.

To clarify: Nasser wins 2/3rds of the poses and closely loses maybe a 1/3. Yates wins with a perfect score. The show was fixed. No way to argue round it; Nasser was robbed.

Huh?

Yates:  Side-triceps by a comfy margin, side chest by several points IMO, front and rear lat spreads by a mile, rear double-biceps by a mile
Nasser:  Front double-biceps and most-muscular by a mile/hefty margin respective, ab/thigh by a small margin if at all

5 vs. 3, more like 5 vs. 2.5.

Nasser looked much better just standing there from the front, so I might give him 45 out of 100 overall.  Yates takes the rest with relative ease; the only reason people argue about it is because they're fixated on a good front double-bi and front relaxed.  That might've been enough to win in 1970 ... 1997, not so much

[Kulutues]

paul dillett best bber ever

[Immortal_Technique]

Yes Yates is killing him even from the front in most shots, mostly because his conditioning sets him apart so visibly. Nasser had fake biceps by then too, so they are are inadmissable!

[jakesonyou]

lol I have all these pictures.

Anyone who thinks Nasser won is clueless.

The GOAT is massive.  Turn around, lights out for Syntholbaty.

The GOAT crushes him in tricep, ab thigh, back double bicep, front lat spread, back lat spread.

Nasser wins...  front double bicep.  relaxed?

Dorian's worst showing due to tricep injury and stomach bleeding...  Yet superb conditioning, massive, thick, crushing the competition...

[Sherief Shalaby]

no doubt yates (AT HIS BEST) had one of the best FLS ever but in 97 he appeared relatively weak in this pose.. his small deformed left arm couldnt be hidden and his chest appeared somehow flat and his quads lacked details!!.. only full round lats but the rest of him was very bad.. in this year i give nasser the FLS over dorian especially nasser here started to hit it right unlike 95 and 96!!..

[Sherief Shalaby]

and as for the A/T pose no dorian was not better than nasser,.. his mid section was still bloated and his quads again were smooth and lacked details..

[delta9mda]

put the hookah down sharief

[L.L]

Shawn won...there is no way Dorian deserved the win with a fucked up bicep
