Three other men beat Mentzer too.  And broke his mind.  And broke Royalty’s mind too.

1980 Mr Olympia, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

No amount of videos with aging bodybuilders is going to change that. The viewpoint of losers is all these videos are.
To date there is zero validation to any of their accusations. Just comes off as sore losers. Male "karens"

Wow, so not only was Samir a competitor in the contest. He was also a judge?
He was also buddies with Mike so who cares what Samir "thinks". Key word "thinks" as in opinion.

As much as you are wrong about the gimmick accusation. You are wrong about the 1980.

What is your endgame with this obsession over the 1980? Do you think those in power will eventually make Arnold place his 1980 Sandow on Mike's grave?

Listen to that .

Sammir who wasn't even in the conversation, it wasn't his war, yet he felt betrayed by his idol, lol because how everything went on ,,, Samir was training with Arnold and somehow thinking Arnold gave a flying F about a newcomer to tell his plans Terminator mode in Sydney ..

True. All these years and not a single proof to validate the claims of these sore losers despite so much effort from their side.

Samir was a friend of Mike, and Mike saved his life by giving him potassium when  Samir started cramping up from a diuretic. Samir owed it to Mike. Also, Mentzer went all the way to Germany to support Samir at the Olympia in 1983 while Arnold was rooting for Bertil.
Plus, Samir's viewpoint standing at the back of the stage while not getting a single comparison is not the best angle to observe the physiques and judge the results. I would rather listen to the opinion of IFBB Pro John Terilli who saw everyone not only backstage but also sitting front and center row in one of the best seats in the house.

Agree with all you state. I dont put any stock in competitors that never went on to achieve much afterwards. Di Arnold really crush all their hopes and dreams, their ambitions crush by the weight of Arnold's victory. Or where they just slightly above average bodybuilders used as fluff fillers till the new upcoming champs arrive, the likes of Lee Haney.
