I was at the 1995 Arnold. Although Mike looked great onstage and deserved to win, he looked a little uneasy being in the spotlight. I couldn't see him winning the O, too many other great bodybuilders in that era.

mike had a great physique but no way could he compare to Dorian in density

dorian was alot thicker than Mike also

rumor was that Mike was a closet homosexual, the rumor was there was an anaesthesiologist in texas who supplied mike with GH/steroids in exchange for ahem, favors

chris aceto worked with Mike

Mike was just getting his run in, and he was thick, and to me he had a better flow than Dorian..I think he had that density plus better muscle shape.

Didn't he have to have his colon removed?

Has to do his business in a bag. Gross.

Physique wise Francois is better but at thier best who is better between Eddie Robinson, Mike and Prince since they kind of have similar physiques?

Francois wasn't exactly a conditioning expert but he had a good run while Robinson and Prince had what? one or two decent showings.

Why did he not place higher at his Olympia showing? I can't quite remember who was in the lineup ahead of him that year....Dorian, Wheeler, Nasser....who else?

He competed three times at the 'O: 95/96/97. Monster fields. Yates, Ray, Dillet, Nasser, Levrone, Flex, etc.....Being top 10 back then was something.

Had the potential to be one of the best of all time. To bad his health failed.

Munzer's quads appear to be much bigger than Mike's in this photo.
