Only guest posings I've ever seen were Ernie Taylor and Flex Lewis. Can't remember what years though.

In my 25 years of promoting the biggest standouts are.........

Gary Strydom 1988 at 128kgs
Lou Ferrigno 10 weeks before his comeback show at 330lbs
Dorian Yates a week after winning his first Olympia
Ronnie Coleman 2005, 2 weeks after Olympia

I will think of some more and maybe dig up some pics.

some pics of these GP"s would be awesome TD!

Ok, not to go completely off track but the worst guest poser ever was Larry Bernstein ( I know this is a different century). The fattest poser I've ever seen. Looked like he'd swallowed a keg!

Easy one......Kevin Levrone!!!! One year Dexter and I went to the southern states and Kevin was the guest poser, he walked up to us all 205-10lbs looking like a young schoolboy, 4 months later he takes second to Ronnie at the Olympia....I can promise you this, if he would've won that year a lot of people would've been ok with that. Incredible response to AAS!!!!

Tom Platz in 83 at the british champs,he had been out of the gym all year after his biceps surgery so no-one expected him to be the guest poser,then after 8 weeks back in the gym he shows up like this (starts at the 7 min mark).

Gustavo Baddell was certainly the worst I would say

Markus Rühl @ Best of the Best Championship in Germany... 2004 I think it was... or 2002? Not sure but he dwarfed everyone on stage and looked just cartoonish..

Saw Sergio Oliva guest pose in South Florida think it was 1986. I will never forget that! Have seen Nasser, Cutler, Levrone, Dexter, and others. Sergio takes the fucking cake!

Yates

I was going to say Yates as well. He was 305 at a show in Boston that Anthony D'arezzo won. D'arezzo was so ridiculously better than anyone in the show, and dwarfed everyone.

Yates made him look like a school kid. Yates' smallest bodypart was his head - he litterally looked the size of a refridgerator.

Figured you might have been at that show.

I saw many of the 90's top pros guest pose. Late 90's Chad Nichols put on the Missouri Bodybilding Championships and Ronnie (320 lbs), Nasser (310 lbs), and Flex (260 lbs) all guest posed.
