Nope was in ´74   but at the Mr O in `80  he was in his worst shape, it was fixed

By shape I think he means leaner and dryer ....  That rear double biceps in 1980 unreal. First time a Xmas tree was displayed despite photo and videos from Sydney available are poor quality for the most part ...


WooooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Trying to see things as they really were back in 1980.

Dickerson was having momentum as he was winning every pro contest he entered prior Olympia

Zane was going for 4th Sandow straight

1979 was Zane best showing and yet he beat Mentzer by just one point.

In 80 Mentzer came back better and Zane smaller. 

Everyone was expecting a battle between Dickerson and Mentzer.

If by "better" you mean smaller, flat and depleted then yes, you could say he was better.

I am gonna say this again. So  understand it this time people.  The ONLY reason why people think Arnold shouldn't have won is because he did NOT look like Arnold. Arnold used to be huge . He was lighter for this show so he doesn't look like Arnold used to look. He was better than everyone else though. So people look at him and say how bad he looked how thin he was or whatever but that is because you are comparing him to his former self. He was still bigger and better than those other clowns but didn't look like himself. Case closed.

Yeah most people think Arnold shouldn't have won it because he did not look like his former self.

However on the show, backstage every competitor felt Arnold shouldn't have placed higher than 5  ;D... So, there was a lot of guys thinking they looked better than Arnold standing next to him that day (Oct 4th 1980)


WooooSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Mentzer was pretty clear cut winner here. Superior mass everywhere and better condition. Legs and arms especially where Arnold looked stringy next to him.

I doubt we will ever see that amount of heads full of hair in an Olympia lineup.

No evidence of any gay activity.  I read Barbara Outlands book and she pretty much said Arnold was anti gay, that she kinda helped him atleast change his attitude towards the gay community.

Kind of childish/stupid to bring the gay cock sucking assumptions to win an argument.
