Arnold reportedly wouldn't do the mandatories, well the only one missing from all the pics and videos is the side tricep. It was great without even pressing it into his side so no idea why he apparently avoided it. Actually is there any pictures of anyone doing the classic side triceps pose from 1980?

Ironically, Arnold mocked Mentzer’s midsection.

There is no such thing as winning a body part. Bodybuilding is as crooked as Miss America.

Arnold backed down from Mentzer because Mike would´ve punched his cocky head clean off his shoulders
I remember an interview with the late Ric Drasin where he laughed when asked about a small "scuffle" Arnold had one day at Golds..Ric said, "Arnold couldn´t fight to save himself" infact i believe he also said Arnold fought like a little Girl  :D

They should´ve let Mike loose on the Globalist Turd

It was a first time mandatory pose and it's very likely he didn't even know they have it as a mandatory  so he hasn't practice it. He performed the praying mantis instead.

And what kind of a fighter goes into a fight wearing his glasses on?  :D

^^^^ There was no need for it


In this scene from  “The Running Man”, we see Sven turn against Killian because Killian was consistently talking down to people. You can’t insult people forever.

How many times per week would Mentzer direct traffic in the nude?
