TREMENDOUS competitive line-up .. and doz dispatched em with aplomb while not bein 100%.

cormier looks TREMENDOUS from the front as usual but it all fell apart when he turned around.

that comp was the first ever doz olympia i ever bought on tape .... TREMENDOUS domination of a TREMENDOUS line-up.

there you can see dillet aint as big standin next to the monsters. nasser was TREMENDOUS there .. defo got shafted for second by the moanin lil bastard.

TREMENDOUS !!

The two guys that impressed me most in that clip were Charles Clairemont and Mike Fancois, and they only took 9th and 10th.

Matarazzo's double bi was awesome too.

YATES LOOKED LIKED SH!T!!!!!!!

Lots of great talent in that show, i think cormier may have been the youngest on stage that year but he looked great with the wide ass shoulders and tiny waist but you can tell he had more (muscle) maturing to do. There was 6 IFBB hall of famers in that show and atleast 1 (Cormier) or more future hall of famers.

i agree francois looked like he should have been top 6,he really didnt have any weaknesses imo

Its funny when you hear that one guy in the crowd, "yeah ronnie.....ronnie looking good" no idea that he would be one of the best mr. olympias of all time. That was a sick line up. Francois was the man, its too bad he has colitis

Cormier looked Etched in Stone... Flex was a lil watery there ..Levrone was awesome.. Dillet and Fux looked identically weird, esp dillet posing like an epiletic(not funny i know), Nassar got a huge ovation , some Ronnie lover was sitting close ..he was talking to himself..GREAT LINE UP!

Hulkster · « **Reply #14 on:** May 24, 2006, 02:14:40 PM »

both Ronnie and chris looked fantastic from that short clip.

dorian looked blocky with poor taper (gee what a surprise)

There you guys go again trying to judge from a video. I was there, Dorian looked great but was pushed hard by Shawn. As good as any of the others may look on the vid, those 2 were quite a way ahead. This was the year they brought in the diuretic test.

alexxx · « **Reply #16 on:** May 24, 2006, 03:16:41 PM »

Thats what you guys call an ovation? Go check out pumping Iron you will flip out!

youandme · « **Reply #17 on:** May 24, 2006, 03:25:48 PM »

Anyone notice how there were no guts?

All about conditioning back then and eating like a bird, staying tight like a drum.

damn Mike F's skin was so thin when he lifted his arm is was like a thin onion peel

Dan-O · « **Reply #18 on:** May 24, 2006, 04:07:56 PM »

I nominate Aaron Baker for "most screwed-over guy ever in the IFBB." Look at him. Freaky size, near-perfect proportions and no weak areas. He placed 11th at the 1996 O in that video. The highest professional placings he got were a 3rd place in 1994 (beaten by Vince Taylor and Cormier), a string of 2nd place finishes in 1995 and another 3rd place in 1998. Of course he had the misfortune those times of going up against Flex Wheeler.

Can anyone think of someone more deserving of the title? I mean look at these.

What were the judges complaints about Baker?

No doubt Aaron Baker was hugely underrated. Awesome back double bicep and a great bodybuilder. I think he was getting screwed over because he entered the WBF. Anyone else think he looks like an even gayer version of little Richard?

what did ronnie get in that contest he was looking good.
