Samir was the shit back then.  Should have been Mr O a couple more times.  Too bad he was never able to recapture his 1983 conditioning ever again.

Jeez, it looks like being a straight male stripper would be cool.  Any chance these dudes are slaying poon whilst on the clock?

Also, that is a good pic a Sammir, classic shape and lines, no homo.

Excellent conditioning there, Samir is one of my favorite bodybuilders.

Much more complete than Arnold ever was. 1983 Samir was one of the best showings ever. The Arnold nuthuggers can't admit that Arnold was mainly chest and arms, back was ok-absolutely not comparable to Samir, legs aren't even in the discussion except for calves (Samir had them also).

Samir did one great showing so he can't be compared to Arnold if only for the consistency. Also Arnold had an impact on Bbing which was way beyond the simple fact of having the best physique. Nobody judges Arnold strictly on his physique because it's impossible, every aspect of his career automatically comes into the equation. But that 83 showing is by far one of the best ever. And in my opinion way more complete than Arnold ever was.

Bannout looks unbelievable in those pics, and in 1983 was awesome... But, comparing him to Arnold? Yeah, i agree he's probably overall more complete, but he's a midget next to Arnold... The Oak was not "mainly chest and arms", he was a conditioned 6' tall monster with great structure, mindblowing arms and chest, super detailed wide back, shredded upper legs with incredible deep cuts and massive calves... And his body flow greatly... Bannout is one of the greats, but Arnold is Arnold... ;D

These dudes over do on legs as far as I'm concerned, 1973 Olympia arnold is best build ever in my opinion, and your moms.

Something we agree on. If you look at weaknesses, I think Samir had the least weaknesses of any Mr. O ever. Arnold... lack of shoulders...Haney and Dorian weak arms... Cutler big waist... Coleman no calves big waist etc. Cant say ANY of those things about Samir in 83.

Yeah.  It's a shame he had to run head-first into Haney, but if he could've recaptured his best form, maybe he could've taken Lee in an off-year, like 1990 :?:

Samir does look thick as hell and very impressive in those '85 photos, though, sure enough.  Even his forearms had an extra pop to them.

It wasnt his physique that let him down it was his attitude.

He didn't toe the line with the Weiders.

Can be done naturally with the best genetics of peace (tested sprint runners)

He should have won more than one Olympia, I think he stands out more than Haney.
