1980 Olympia where he came in 5th.  I think it was a fair placing.

It was Milos who brought the use of insulin to bbing.

gary strydom taught a few of my friends about it in 1989.

Dickerson sucked big time. He had no business being on that stage and how he got second is beyond rational belief.  Arnold in 1st and Mentzer and Zane could go either way for 2nd.

Dickerson sucked.  Pointy elbows and a face and ears reminiscent of Curious George.  Plus he's a man-ho.  Disgusting creature that sold him self on film.   And Weider had Nubret exiled for making a "risqué" movie?  Dickerson probably was the blackmale in a Drasin film or two.

Mentzer may have over dieted and came in a bit small and flat than usual but standing next to Zane you can see how much bigger and thicker he is than Zane and just as conditioned.

I am also at a lost as to how Dickerson got into the top five. He looks good from the back and has tremendous calves but other than that very unimpressive.

dyke's physique was much more aesthetically pleasing than gay's

Man, Mike's build was so fucking cool.

I completely disagree about Dickerson. During that period he came in first or second in every contest he entered. He looked during this peak of his competitive years like he was cut from ice with his density. Look at all the Grand Prix he won and didn't he come in second in three Olympias? Look at that picture. Just amazing just standing there. Seeing him live next to another top champ made the other guy look bloated and soft.

Also Mentzer was far from as conditioned as Zane and Dickerson.  I think fans of high intensity have a warped impression on how good Viator and Mentzer were. They could do nothing wrong on stage in their subjective eyes.

If he had real confidence he could be the ultimate pussy slayer. He has the physique and rugged good looks, too bad he was too tense, kind of wooden personality.
He could only be the prophet of wannabe acne faced bbers.

What are you talking about? Obviously you've never met Mike nor are aware of his reputation and how he was perceived by others. "Wooden personality"? Based on what? He was considered by most as very personable and I was pleased at what a good sense of humor he had. And as far as "pussy slaying" a writer once described him as "getting more ass than a toilet seat."

Both Mike and Ray had no trouble getting the hotties.

[pellius]

A young Howard looking pretty intense there.

[karasan]

Happy to hear that, the guy seemed to have amazing potential, well above average intelligence and education, unique physiue and good looks, I dunno, what I read about his quarrel with Arnold he seemed lacking ease and humour Arnold had.
Getting more ass than a ladies' toilet seat, respect!

Nothing like judging someone based on a second or third hand account of ONE encounter.

Boy, I loves me some interwebs!

[Never1AShow]

Imagine reading in all the muscle magazine about Mike Mentzer being such a god and the uncrowned Mr Olympia in 1980 and then being in Golds Venice day after day seeing him in there looking like a nobody fat sloppy looking dirtbag.  "is thatMike Mentzer?"

It's all illusion
