Every year I forget it's happening. And even when I do remember it's getting ready to take place, I always forget soon after.

a load of bloated 6 weeks out competitors who wouldnt have placed in the top 5 in the 90s.

They are leaner than in the 90s but obsessed with "fullness." Someone like Levrone wasn't extremely lean, like in the legs for example. Same with Wheeler. You had some iconic genetic structures in the 90s. How they would have fared today is not that easy to say; well it's easy to assume especially if you became a fan then but sometimes your memory might be a little too rosy. Wouldn't Hadi have won shows then? Maybe not the O but other shows for sure.

I'll admit that this is the most interested I've been in the Mr O since Ronnie wrongly lost to Jay.  But it's negative interest, only in that I'm now worried Nick Walker might actually win and displace Lumpsford as the worst Mr. O of all time.

Lumpsford really is terrible. 5 foot nothing and covered in unsightly lumps. I could be describing Walker there too, but Lumpsford is so full of oil, no real striations or quality to his physique. I hope he doesn’t win or Walker for the sake of the sport.

Imagine Hadi in 2025 alongside Lee Labrada in 1992.
Lee would disappear like spaghetti behind the oak tree.

today they have ripped glutes but zero separation or striations in the upper body

This is because they dont fill up hams and glutes with SEO

Hadi is about the only one with the 90s conditioning

How do you think 14 placed Jay would fare today?

Greatest of all time. This is another smoothed over copy, the ifbb decided Ronnie was too shockingly peeled for the public to stomach it. If you hunt around theres one single unedited (smoothed) copy of Ronnie wearing green trunks where you can see how peeled he actually was. Original footage snd pics are super rare.
