1981 WABBA Pro World Cup

1     Sergio Oliva
2     Serge Nubret
3     Robby Robinson
4     Ahmet Enünlü
5     Dave Johns
6     Kalman Szkalak

http://musclememory.com/show.php?c=Pro+World+Cup+-+WABBA&y=1981

all these guys had been "banned for life" by Joe Weider for some offense or another, so they all got together for Nubret's WABBA contest


So Weider had his own contest by the same name

1981 IFBB Professional World Cup

1     Boyer Coe
2     Chris Dickerson
3     Bronston Austin
4     Johnny Fuller
5     Dennis Tinerino
6     Albert Beckles

and Bronston was and always remained an amateur.  gave back the prize money to the AAU I think to retain his status. and pretty much faded away after the contest.
