He was 232 at the 1993 Mr. Olympia.
Nope. Not even close. 232 maybe at the 98 O. When he was 230ish, he had no crispness to him and was larger. That was in 96-97. In the Hardbody vid, which was shot one week out, when he was in the the posing room he said he was about 220, and had water to drop. So that means he was still losing weight. His size was not that far off from the Arnold. At the Ironman he was bigger and fuller, and a week or so later at the 93 Arnold, he was cut and lighter. Looking close to his 92 form.
At the 97 Arnold, he was 224. Nasser had said that Flex told him, and Nasser said this in an interview be Shae he was incensed that he lost to a 224 pound Flex. Also, again Flex's physique matches closely with 92, USAs, 93 Arnold and 93 Olympia. And when Flex did that 2002 Mr. O (supposedly natty), he was about 218-220. And again, you could tell that he is lighter. Everything is pretty consistent with him being 216-220ish his first few years, except for 96 or 97. Apparently for the 96 O he was 227.
The only time during his rookie year that an argument could be made for 232 is at the Ironman, where he was fuller and noticeably bigger. You cannot go by the listed weights on the vids.
If Fortress or ND can dig it up, there was an indepth Flex Wheeler interview by Musclemag (back in 99 or so), where he disclosed his true weights. And I think even Joe McNeal had said the same weights. 215 92 USAs, 216 93 Arnold Classic, and 218 93 Mr. O.
