1981
I have a hard time believing Padilla ever competed over 200 lbs.
From the late 70s to today i`ve seen most of the top pros,either competing,watching them train,or training with them,and obviously they all looked impressive,but i have to say that Danny is the only person i`ve seen and thought "now thats a bodybuilder".You really had to see him up close to understand what i mean,every single muscle group was perfect,proportions unreal,and every bodypart flowed into the next one.
Coming in third in the Night of the Champions. Yates first pro American contest where he came in second. Padilla should have won. He was over 200lbs here.
