ZANE in '83
« on: July 15, 2017, 02:17:07 PM »
Good or bad? He came in really shredded this year, but I liked him better heavier, personally.

1983 four minute posing routines for a lot less money (granted less competitors) as opposed to what today? :90-2:00min today then rushed off stage?

very ugly physique.

today he would be compared to some board shorts guys and they would SMOKE him in terms of symmetry, lines, better abs, proportions etc

Was 180 pounds in 1983 and just over 200 pounds in 1982. Apparently he had just been in some kind of car accident just prior to the 1983 Mr. O, hence the weight loss.

Anyone who weighs under 300 pounds with a huge GH gut is very ugly to you, aren't they?

zane cut his urethra in 1980 before the olympia thats why he was so skinny. zane was never huge but when he was in shape and standing alone he looked perfect.  but when he was next to bigger guys he looked way off. when posing symmetry proportion and style was what bodybuilding was all about the guys from the 60s into the early 80s were the best. dickerson shouldnt of won anything. ever. not even close but uncle joe needed a black champ i guess but it backfired cuz i dont think joe knew dickerson was gay. lol and no way was he gonna have robby ever win in the 70s.

A lot of people who only look at pictures and didn't see these guys in person don't understand how good they were. Dickerson had a great physique, especially in 1979 and 1980 when he was really thick. Between 1979 and 1981, Dickerson entered 21 contests and won 10 of them and he took second in the other shows (except the '79 Olympia, his first Olympia contest). That's an incredible record! At his peak, Dickerson had thickness, shape, symmetry and polish. If you didn't see him in person (same with Zane), you have no idea how good these guys were for their time. As for Robby, he won the Mr. America, Mr. International, Mr. World and Mr. Universe as an amateur and then won the first two Night of the Champions ('78 and '79), the Professional World Cup in '78 and a bunch of other Grand Prix shows so he definitely had his share of victories in the '70's.

Exactly, Dickerson was an incredible Champion. 79-80.
No athlete today in Classic physic division, even in open, could beat Platz, Bertil Fox, Bannout, Mentzer or Robinson but Franck Zane did it multiple Times. You don't realize how good he was and at light years ahead of Sadik.

Zane was brilliant in his prime.
In 83 he was over the top.
Old face, the freshness of his skin and muscles had vanished.
Still very impressive, but years earlier he looked 10 x better
