Mike was never able to best Arnold. He went down hill from 1980 on, yet his build was awesome in his prime.

Poor Mike, A victim of his own mind. I have wondered if he had a mild form of schizophrenia.

Well he did have issues, amphetamines probably did not do him any favors.

He needed to just put that shit behind him and compete in a few more shows.

Agreed, had he stuck with it he may have won the Olympia at least once.

Mentzer was a daredevil.  He didn't mind trying new drugs and pushing the limits on gear. 3 grams a week of deca alone.

He kinda looked like a figure from "Masters Of The Universe". Simply outstanding in some shots.

p.s.: the day I saw the video of him and his brother training the german Markus-dude was such a sobering experience.
