Is Samson the New Samir ?

[Pet shop boys]

Samir Bannout won the Olympia in 83 then couldn't make the top 3 the following year he kept trying for over a decade and failing to the point he ended up placing dead last at the Olympia 92 (tied with Ronnie Coleman) even an out of retirement Ferrigno beat him that year ..

Samir couldn't defend his tittle at age 29
Samson couldn't at 39
So it does not look promising for our dear Samson Dauda .




WoooooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

How many former Mr O's were competing in this last Mr Olympia?  Wasn't there like 5 previous winners or something there?

[Humble Narcissist]

Samir was pretty much blacklisted after competing in a non IFBB sanctioned show (Mr. Olympus?).

That's an interesting thought for sure - all I know is he's probably the most gracious and friendly Pro I ever met (not including Lenda Murray who was also amazingly down to earth)  He worked the room like everyone was interesting - not easy to do!

Team Samir for Life!

Seems that way.

He probably refuses to participate in all the sick, nasty, freaky things behind the scenes that are required to help a competitor place well.

He also did WABBA/NABBA shows as well

Maybe these things only happen in your mind.
Perhaps the Freak is You.

YES,,,

Think about it, Samson finally wins the Olympia in 24', this year he does three shows and can't win one !

Turning 40 don't see him retiring anytime soon or getting better with age.

WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Methyl m1ke]

Samson=pathetic, body built with seo and machines like the rest of these losers.

Good riddance

Pretty sure Samir is on the record saying he didn't really fully commit himself to bodybuilding/winning Mr O after he got that first title

So you haven’t heard of anymore armpit sniffing sessions and grapefruit molesting taking place? Those days are over? Glad the IFBB is a pure and holy organization now.

The IFBB is certainly lucky to have a noble individual like yourself who will always fight for their honor.

Unlike you I do not believe every Internet accusation or rumour.
As in any sport no doubt there's some very dirty / shady things that go on.

Try & engage your one working brain cell & act , think like an adult.
Its your fantasies that you need to control.

Well, Haney did walk out head and shoulders above everyone the next year in 1984 and it weas like "Holy Shit!".  84 Haney was not 83 Haney that Samir beat.

He never recovered.
