Title: Anyone have any pictures of Johnnie Morant
Post by: MassInMass on January 23, 2006, 03:40:41 PM
Johnnie Morant was one of the biggest dudes of his time. He was  one of the first guys to step on stage nearly 300lbs, and that was 15 years ago (even though it was for McMahons organization)...

I believe he was 5'11" he was supposed to be the next Haney , I think he competed at 260 in the IFBB , I'm not sure how much he competed at in the WBF .

No GH belly either.  Amazing structure.

I was in Vegas the year he won the North Americans and turned pro.

He DID have a GH gut, just not to the same degree as the guys of today.  I can clearly remember a photo shoot he did by the pool and the fact that when he relaxed his abdomen he looked pregnant even though he was shredded.  That was my first real-life viewing of a GH gut. 

That said, he had an awesome physique and was HUGE.  As someone else mentioned he still trains and looks quite large in a recent photo I saw of him somewhere.

You're 6'1 right?  That helps to narrow down Johnnie's height.


6 ft 1 and a half "..to be technical

Seen him in person about 15yrs ago.  Had the biggest and thickest pecs I have ever seen, and I've seen many pros in person before.
