Title: 1980 Olympia - CBS never released the footage
Post by: Pet shop boys on January 06, 2015, 03:48:03 AM
If the remastered never before seen footage of the most controversial bodybuilding contest of all time is finally released., And all the comparison shots from the back shows Dickerson in better shape than Arnold, and all the booing after Arnold is called the winner is evident. 


Would you be surprised ? Buy the DVD ?

 Would it hurt Arnold's bodybuilding legacy or simply make it more relevant for younger generation that would get to see Arnold in a bodybuilding contest in a more realistic approach than Pumping Iron  ?





Woooshhhhhhhh.    2015.

I took a lot of photos of the 1980 Mr Olympia which was in Sydney. During the finals I was shooting colour slides and got a mate in the row in front of me

to take a video. Would you believe most of that was ruined because he got so excited he started stamping his feet. I haven't looked at it to see if I

recorded the booing at the end. This mate was cheering for Roger Walker who made the finals and thus all the excitement. What a shame

because I was in a great position in the middle of the Concert Hall and we would have had a good view of what happened.

Controversial only because Arnold shouldn't have been allowed to compete, not because he was undeserving of the title, won fair and square in my opinion... Most controversial? Hardly... Mr Basile himself, if i remember correctly, said that Arnold was booed for a moment, cheered after...

Booing or not... the video does not lie.  Arnold (25lbs lighter than he was previously) was the best bodybuilder on that day.

Get over it.

True, the video really shows even when Arnold was 80% he was still better than the rest.

You should take a look at the whole footage then .... 

with magazines dying, nothing relevant or appealing going on with today's bodybuilding .....

you might have a treasure there.

No, I think you are the one missing the point.  The point is that this happened in 1980.  It's over.

There are no new developments or new ramifications for Arnold or anyone else that was involved.

Plus you need to admit that It'd b wicked fun to watch the most respected bodybuilders of all time, in one line up displayed from a neutral source rather than just Weider,Busek,Balik, old pics and articles .

Booing or not... the video does not lie.  Arnold (25lbs lighter than he was previously) was the best bodybuilder on that day.

Get over it.

It was very close and Arnold, being Arnold, won the day.

In 1980, Zane was lighter and off from his incredible 1979 winning form.
Mentzer looked good but lacked the chest depth and overall stage presence to defeat Arnold.
 Roy Callender and Chris Dickerson looked incredible but seemed small next to a man of Arnold's stature.
Boyer Coe lacked abs and back detail and Platz was still too bottom hvy in 1980

I can see why Arnold won and have no problems with it.
Based on what I have seen , I would have picked it:
Roy Calender 1st, Dickerson 2nd, Arnold 3rd, Mentzer 4th...

I had Tom Platz winning in 1981 as he looked incredible.
Franco winning in 1981 was the worst Olympia pick of all time.

I was watching 'The Comeback' on youtube, and noticed this. But I also felt Arnold looked, I dunno, kind of old and tired. Didn't have that enthusiasm from before. Which I guess could be attributed to his focus on Hollywood?

Zane and Mentzer were very close on Video, Zane much better structure but too small and looked a bit sick which he was. Mike was big but structure was not as good. Arnold won easily, best structure by a mile, bigger than all, very ripped.

This a great article about the 1980 Mr. Olympia contest -
http://www.starkcenter.org/static/igh/articles/igh11.1.4.pdf

Interesting that I am quoted in that article but John Fair never talked to me. What he wrote was inaccurate as well. John goes into great detail about the judges at the 80 Olympia and their relationship with Arnold.

I had the original judges sheets so compiled the results and made some observations. I was standing in the Opera House before the judging and was talking with Frank Burwash and Peter McCarthy from Melbourne.

Frank was a contest promoter and Peter won the Mr Australia a couple of times plus he won every contest promoted in Australia at his peak. Someone came up to Peter and told him the judges meeting had started.

Peter was upset because no one told him. He raced off but we found out he wasn't allowed to judge because he missed the meeting. He was there for part of the meeting because he is in some of the photos.

I call this bullshit. Peter knows how to judge a bodybuilding contest and was the most respected and awarded bodybuilder in those days. If the accusation of fixing the contest is true then this is how it happened.

Paul Graham apparently decided to replace Peter with young Brendan Ryan who had won only a Junior Mr Australia title and no senior title that I am aware of. I actually judged the contest that he won.

I knew Brendan personally because I hung around Coogee Gym where Brendan trained as did Les Spendlove and Robert Nailon. We knew that Brendan stayed with Arnold when he visited LA. That suggests

they were mates and Brendan would favour Arnold. As it turned out Brendan gave Arnold clear first places in all rounds. Other judges gave several guys a 20 out of 20 score in one or more rounds. So

Brendan's score carried more weight than those who tied several guys. If we replace Brendan's score with the rightful Australian judge, Peter McCarthy, then Arnold might NOT have won. It was that close.

Of course, that is the prejudging and there is another judging at the finals. That is the time 'adjustments' can be made if promoters or officials feel 'errors' have occurred.

Fair quotes Dickerson as complaining about promoter Paul Graham who was a mate of Arnold when they lived together in late 68 up to Paul's arrest in early 69 for sending stolen cars to Australia.

Arnold wasn't arrested so many felt he owed Paul who took the rap. I was in Honolulu the day after Paul was arrested and relatives cut out a clipping showing a muscleman holding a car with the

caption about Paul being arrested by the FBI who handle cases involving interstate or foreign crimes. I sent the clipping to my buddy Robert Nailon who tells me he can't find it. Yeah, sure.

Dickerson swears that Graham was a bigot and called Chris a fag and wouldn't allow him to win the Olympia. Read what Fair wrote in that History article.

Fair used my photos and never paid me for them or got permission to use them. He won't reply to an email I sent him. Funny, that.

In the last photo below you can see Peter McCarthy to the left of Mike's head. Why wasn't he a judge that day?

http://www.musculardevelopment.com/news/bodybuilding-news/11982-mentzer-vs-arnie.html#.VLUwIVWUeMI

This is why the original footage should be released ,

Arnold being friends with judges, refusing the open class, The booing when he is announced the winner ,and all the posing (one on one) against the likes of  Dickerson (awesome muscle separation and balanced) you can see clearly that Arnold refuses to do mandatory poses against him,and wasn't marked down for it, also comparisons with  Zane and Mentzer  were the prime reasons the footage didn't make it to the public,

Just Because Arnold was pushing his image for the Conan movies and didn't want to be perceived as a fraud  in that contest

So Arnold is the only bodybuilder who deserves all the credit and all the glory ?

Arnold was only 33 when he won that contest. Hardly old and tired. He just had other priorities that's all. These days, guys are lucky to qualify for their first Olympia by the time they're 33.

Rightly or Wrongly Arnold Won.
Nothing can change that Now.

Have seen the Comeback Video & Several Magazine Articles / pictures.
Zane.. Looked to Small & Light. Great frame & structure, in shape.
2nd or 3rd.
Dickerson... Small, odd arms, good condition.
3rd to 5th.
Coe... Big, no abs, some Great poses only he could do.
5th or 6th.
Mentzer... Big, good arms & legs, chest looked small & Flat, yet looked full in the waist.
3rd or 4th.
Walker... Very big heavily muscled, looked too pale.
Hard to place, 2nd to 4th.
Arnold... Not his Best. Very light Bodyweight, Legs very Small, Upper Body 85% of peak, good condition.
Big +'s His Name his charisma his friends.
1st.

From the limited footage Etc I have seen, He Probably deserved it.

And we do judge him up against his previous Best.

On some level that controversy was the best thing to happen to bodybuilding.  It let the eras change, but let Arnold stay relevant to bodybuilding throughout the 80s.  It also ushered in the time of Lee Haney just a few years later.  The bodybuilding world needed another dominant big man after a couple of years of nutsos like Mentzer and some small who cares guys like Zane, Franco and Dickerson.  Bannout looked carved out of plastic for his win, but he wasn't able to dominate thereafter.

Now it is all, who cares.

I was so disappointed with the Olympia and the magazines that I sold my negs and slides to Robert Nailon. Robert then sold a lot of those photos around the world and especially to Musclemag. Not knowing who to send photos to and what to send each I asked Robert.

He suggested a few magazines plus I was sending to Ironman. I wouldn't send anything to Joe. Robert said not to worry about what to send so I sent everyone the same photos. Well, Robert Kennedy was livid and never communicated with me again. Neither did he pay

for the photos I sent. So Robert the Brain got me real good. I reserved the right to have copies made for my personal use of any of the photos and slides but recently Robert has forgotten we signed an agreement. Trouble is my ex has that agreement and I have no

idea where it is. There you are, be careful in your dealings with friends and partners. Trust no one else.

Mentzer and Anie seem to be the only two who are expanding the ribcage in the sidechest.That always looks more impressive than merely contracting the pecs.

Difficult to tell from a blurry photograph but Mentzer looks to have both size and conditioning in his lower body. Arnie has the best upper body,but it kind of overpowers his legs,

Flex mag should have that picture on the cover sometime this year....

Arnold looks spectacular besides his image always sell, the magazines are dying and its a picture in full color.

Honestly, what gets me is that Peter McGough (sp?) thought the '80 Olympia was more controversial than the '81 OR '82 contests.

Yeah, Arnold wasn't quite himself in 1980 -- but he still easily K.O.ed all of the competition.  His [supposed] nearest competitor was Chris Dickerson, for Christ's sake.  That dude couldn't do a front double-biceps pose to win a novice contest in the early 80's, forget the Olympia. 

Franco "beating" about four or five guys who should've placed ahead of him in '81 is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa y more controversial, Peter.  Dickerson winning the '82 Olympia over some vastly superior dudes is a whole other matter ... it wasn't until '83, with Samir winning, that things were beginning to sort out.  Even then, a bunch of the old-timers would argue that a great many bullshit results proliferate until Haney was dominant.

It was very close and Arnold, being Arnold, won the day.

In 1980, Zane was lighter and off from his incredible 1979 winning form.
Mentzer looked good but lacked the chest depth and overall stage presence to defeat Arnold.
 Roy Callender and Chris Dickerson looked incredible but seemed small next to a man of Arnold's stature.
Boyer Coe lacked abs and back detail and Platz was still too bottom hvy in 1980

I can see why Arnold won and have no problems with it.
Based on what I have seen , I would have picked it:
Roy Calender 1st, Dickerson 2nd, Arnold 3rd, Mentzer 4th...

I had Tom Platz winning in 1981 as he looked incredible.
Franco winning in 1981 was the worst Olympia pick of all time.

Platz, Dickerson or Padilla shold have won in 1981

his physique suffered in the 80's from drug overdosing.  In the 70's the just worked hard constantly and stay in contest shape but some time off he rushed back, drugged hard to get ready for the show and in the process pushed his physique too hard and too fast.

I think it's because he didn't trained long enough in '75 and '80. He had planned to retire in '74 but was approach for the PI movie. And by then I think he lost the hunger he had to really push himself. He was so dominate for his time that he simply lost interest. I don't think he had more than 3 months to get ready for both shows. And that's coming from not, or barely, training at all.

Didn't know Boyer got to watch the uncut version of the CBS 1980 Olympia footage along with few others  !

So, they didn't aired it cause it was too controversial ?

Hmmmmm The best thing that can happen to any tv network is to air a controversial show ......

So, they followed around Tinerino ,Zane ,Dickerson and Boyer all featured as the main contenders for the contest.

At then comes Arnold,unexpected out of nowhere and win it all ,  now that will make the whole crew and production look like they did a poor job by following around the wrong contestants and making the contest about everyone but the winner....

That to me makes more sense to not air the show. 

Arnold was booed, fellow competitors feel he wasn't even top three
But to Arnold in general the 80's were the most successful decade due to his popularity in movies. 


Which will make the controversial 1980 MrO never aired footage more attractive to mainstream audiences than pumping Iron was in the 70's



We need to get hands on that footage John !!

Controversial only because Arnold shouldn't have been allowed to compete, not because he was undeserving of the title, won fair and square in my opinion... Most controversial? Hardly... Mr Basile himself, if i remember correctly, said that Arnold was booed for a moment, cheered after...

It's a bodybuilding contest. It's judged by rather subjective criteria and ARNOLD won.
Poor Mentzer never could get over it and quit competing as a pro after that.
The only on Mike hurt on that, was himself.

In 1975 he lost a lot of weight to do Stay Hungry. Then he was asked to do Pumping Iron and had to get ready for that. Arnold's overtraining would make it harder to get back in the same shape because he doesn't let himself recover properly.

1980 he did at last minute too and was leaner than any other show. Once you start dropping weight when you are already lean it shows.

Serious question to competitive bbers. How come they don't do RDB like this anymore? Why do they step back and stop and squat down. Just like a standing relax they use to stand normally with a just slight flare of the arms so it doesn't look like you are slouching. Now they flare their arms out which flattens out your delts and makes you look like a school boy that's goofing around trying to look strong in a mocking way. BBers use to have some semblance of dignity when they posed back in the day. Remember in PI how majestic Arnold looked? Didn't have that fake smile when doing a most muscular. That's not a pose that you should smile. It's suppose to be more of a "Look at this, bitches!" pose.

But there are specific poses that feature leg development. The rear double bi is mostly back, bis and calves. If you have sick hams and flaring quads it will still be evident. No need to caress them or squat down.

I just feel that more thought and consideration should be taken into having not only an impressive presentation but also a dignified one.

I mean, look at Arnold's facial expression and demeanor in this brief posing routine.
Very dignified and majestic. Even when he walks off the stage. No pretentious strutting or arms flaring. Just walking like a normal person. His physique speaks for itself.

I am not impressed with the posing of most of the pros. Most copy each other, etc. Take the standing relaxed pose. Each competitor tries to look as big as possible so the arms go out and they look ridiculous.

Most have no clue how to look impressive just standing there. Then you  have guys like Branch who put his huge legs out wide making his lower body look even more out of proportion. Since he is placing high

or winning contests he figures he must be doing things right. Ben P makes the same mistake. I am afraid bodybuilding hasn't evolved in a positive way.

Yup.  A lot of liddle guysss, they hide when they pose.   Now they just squat down like they're about to take a dump.  I magine how they must feel... From the back. From the side.  From the front.  It's like they're taking a dump all de times.  Can you imagine how de muss feel?  They're dumping all de time!

Bunch of squatty little turdlets.  Even the taller guys like Wolf squat down like they're about to cannonball a turdle in a public restroom.  Ridiculous.

Stand up and show them what you've got. Height (if you've got it)  for one.  Aesthetics instead of assthetics.   Striated glutes?  Schome-bait.  40 inch thighs?  Just plain disproportional and fooked up.  48 inch waists.  What a waste.

I train HIT. As you are getting stronger you have to lower sets.

Arnold won in 1980. Easy. Mike didn't have the structure. He did to win most other comps, not against Arnold.

Too right, look at the depth and thickness of arnold in the background of that pic above, mentzer is closer and flexing but arnolds size even fully relaxed there wipes him out.

Both had great physiques.
Arnold at his best though was in a different league.

Clearly Arnold was mentally stronger as he was beat in competition
And came back bigger & better.
Mike let that one defeat devastate his bodybuilding career & his life.
One Fcuking Comp. whether it was fixed or not.
That's a very fragile mind set.
All the other competitors never quit, Though they may not of been in agreement
With the results.

Why did mike have such a huge problem with just Arnold  Dickerson Zane Were also
Placed ahead of him, Boyer Coe was tied with Mike & the 4th place was awarded to Boyer.
Did Mike honestly think Arnold had also arranged all them placings.

It's a shame Mike could have had a great career & had a lot of good ideas.
The mental weakness let him down.
RIP Mike.

Watching that youtube film Mike is talking about himself when he says that some beginner bodybuilders with inferiority complexes think that big muscles will make them feel good and then when they get big they don't feel any better about themselves and compete in bodybuilding contests and discover they are fixed and it pisses them off mentally.

Ray was always genetically better than Mike because Mikes muscles were kind of stringy and he had a funny shaped mid section.
Ray had a much more symmetrical physique with rounder muscle shape and just needed to diet a bit harder and he could have been a real contester in Mr Olympia in 81,82,83.

Then you're not really a bodybuilding fan , don't want any negative publicity towards Arnold last Olympia, or are under age 21 and don't know much about it.

So you are TRUE bodybuilding fan???  LOL... have you competed?  I bet when people first see you the immediately think " wow that dude is jacked - he MUST be into bodybuilding".
If not - then you aren't a fan - you're a schmoe

Ray had a more classic bodybuilder look. That's  what I liked about Mike. He had a different look. I felt he stood out. The way his arms had this balloon-like look just hanging relax at his side. But not puffed up marshmellow look that Heath has. He looked hard as a rock and carved out of stone. He had a compact muscular density that you don't see much with other bbers except with Dorian.

Yup.

Arnold in first and then either Mike or Frank in second/third.  It was close between those two but the Oak for the win.  I think Mike should have just done what Arnold did when he lost the Universe to Zane, i.e., taken himself back to the gym and trained with even greater ferocity and won the next year.  Arnold may have cried in his hotel room about his loss to Zane, but Mike whined about the '80 Olympia the rest of his life.    I still think Mentzer was one of the best ever but he could have been even greater.

As John used to say, if life gives you lemons and you don't like lemonade, then throw 'em back at life and go get what you really wanted in the first place.

Same here.  80% of Arnold smokes the rest of these guys on their best day.

Some people trying to apply today's standards to this contest where a small chest and a big stomach is acceptable.

Even if the were right (which they aren't) it's way past time to get over this.

Nice find. Zane and Coe both looked very good. Mentzer from the front looked alright but he completely vanished when side on. I don't think he had much room to complain the way he did.

Padilla's arms looked insane from that angle, something's going on with that camera. And not sure if it was a joke but that is not Bertil Fox.

Danny was huge in the 1980 Olympia. Bertil Fox wasn't in the Olympia that year. I think he meant Roy Callender.

The video makes Zane look like the clear winner.

Mentzer really does vanish from the side. 

Coe and Casey Viator looked good -- should have placed higher.

Arnold's legs and forearms look surprisingly weak, and he seems off-balance somehow.

That's probably why Zane smashed his trophy.

1980 was 40 years ago and we still talk about who should have won the Olympia in Sydney that year.

I was there but saw the contest through my camera lenses. I did take 360 photos at the judging then some slides at the

evening show. They called out 7 men for the pose down. Roger Walker had tied for 6th so he was included as the home-town favourite.

Somehow the judges scored the pose down which really was silly. Guys were doing all manner of poses and moved around. No way

anyone was really compared.

Well, imagine the excitement before the places were announced. We knew something was brewing because Mike Mentzer placed 5th.

That was a surprise. Then Boyer Coe 4th. The shock was three time Mr Olympia placing 3rd...Frank Zane. Then the Concert Hall became

silent....in second place...Chris Dickerson. That meant that Arnold won. The audience booed long and loud. Finally they accepted Arnold's

victory and gave him what he deserved.

I wasn't surprised that Arnold won but the placings were all over the place. There were 200 people from our gym there and everyone

had an opinion. I was surprised that some of the bodybuilders from my gym favoured Chris Dickerson.

I formed my opinions later when developing my black and white photos. Several of the guys could have won. The judges thought so, too,

and many of the competitors got a 20 score in at least one round. That was the trouble with this contest. Too many judges awarded 20 scores.

When many judges fail to separate the competitors that leaves the scores of those who did to count more.

There was also a mystery how Brendan Ryan, a junior, was chosen to judge over several times Mr Australia, Peter McCarthy. I was standing

with Peter and Frank Burwash before the judging and someone told Peter the judges' meeting had started. Peter swore and raced off but

was told he missed part of the meeting so couldn't judge. Apparently Peter was told the wrong time for the meeting! It turned out that

had Peter judged and not Brendan the result might have favoured Chris.

Well, those of us who are cynical and have been around contests for a long time suspect that many contests are 'fixed'. What happens

most of the time is that a certain competitor isn't allowed to win. I cite Bev Francis as one such person in the IFBB. No way they were

going to let her win the Ms Olympia. Sergio also placed 8th when he competed in 1984 but he was past his prime.

Dennis was the hardest competitor and had the best abs. His posing let him down. Boyer Coe had the best routine and that is probably

why he placed ahead of Mike. Chris Dickerson gave a superb presentation. What more could anyone say? Just a beautiful physique that night.

Arnold wasn't great at the judging until the posing and comparison rounds. All of a sudden there was the old Arnold looking great in his

posing from front to back. His arms and calves were huge and they helped him look better than he was.

Mike Mentzer looked good by himself but he, Frank and Chris looked small when compared to Arnold. Mike looked the winner in some of his

poses. 5th place was a bitter pill to swallow and he never competed again which was a shame. Frank Zane looked a bit red. Classic physique

and he posed for what seemed like an eternity. He was appreciated but the audience didn't go nuts or anything. 3 times Mr Olympia and

now 3rd place. He somehow 'dropped' his trophy back stage. He didn't want any company at the Hilton, either, and was heard to be crying

in his room!

Paul Graham organised a harbour cruise after the contest. Almost all the competitors and judges were there including Joe Weider.

After viewing my photos and slides I came to accept that Arnold won the contest. His arms and chest dwarfed the others. His thighs

were down but he was really cut up. The competitor who was totally overlooked was Danny Padilla. He wasn't called out for any comparison

among the winners. If you put his photo on a grid then he had the best physique there. His height let him down which was a real shame.

Just some thoughts after 40 years.

Roger Walker looked like the only competitor who could match Arnold's size.  Mentzer was mentally weak.  He lost one contest and quit.  He should have kept competing and he easily could have won in 81, 82, 83 and maybe even 84 when Haney was raw.

I don't think so . . . I believe it was just part of his structure. I had a copy of the 76 Mr. Universe in Montreal which was broadcast by ABC's Wide World of Sports - Oscar State doing the commentary with Bob Beattie commented on it. Wide World of Sports, a show that still to this day has not been equaled.

Both Mike and Arnold have one side of their traps flexed differently in that photo.  I think they are twisting the left arm differently in the pose than the right.

83 and 84 would have been much tougher than 81 and 82 but he would have been the reigning Olympia making him tougher to beat.  Lou should have never retired after 75 and he may have won the title 10X.

Post by: Rmj11 on June 10, 2022, 03:22:34 PM
There really is no controversy. This ongoing myth really needs to die now. Controversial? Not really, big guys always have the advantage. Dorian over Ray and mostly Cutler over Dexter etc. Arnold was big and developed while the other competitors were tiny compared to him. Bigger is better in the real world.

First up. The story of CBS sports, which was covering the event, had supposedly Mentzer pegged as the winner before the contest results were announced. After the contest, they pulled their crew and never aired the coverage and never covered the O again. Well that’s all a lie.

The reality is there was never any statements by CBS about a fix or anything at all. No footage was broadcast because the filming crew had run out of tape. That’s all it was. They never filmed the whole thing. The story about CBS pulling because of a "fix"was conjured up by Coe and Mentzer since they were bitter losers and wanted to discredited Arnold. The story is still being kept alive by fans of Mentzer’s training philosphy who want to rewrite history, because what else do they have to hang on to? Nothing.

Secondly. Mentzer was never a contender. Mentzer still would have been in 4th place even if Arnold never entered. This whole Arnold vs Mentzer thing was created years later he was never a real threat onstage. He was a footnote and nothing more. Revisionist history. He became a contender years after the fact when he had a resurgence of popularity from his HIT training system. Back in 1980 he was just a footnote now somehow he was better than Arnold. People can’t seperate their need to embellish his brief competitive record because they like HIT. So they make it seem like Arnold and Mentzer were rivals, when Arnold barely knew Mentzer existed most of the time. Arnolds only rivals were Sergio and Ferrigno. Mentzer just wasn’t worth noting as competition and no one would remember him if he hadn’t become an author of HIT books later in life.

Mentzer couldn’t even beat Zane or Dickerson and they were pretty small. HIT devotees want to deify their idol though so they won’t stop claiming he was the rightful winner despite the evidence. Ludicrous. Mike Mentzer places lower than he felt and spends the rest of his ‘career’ whining about it.
And another thing about Mentzer- his HIT is BS. Did he train like that? Nope. First he says train 4 days a week, then his HIT gets more minimal over the years so he can get some attention. Finally, how often did he advocate training a bodypart- once every 12 days or something? Just a pile of BS to generate money. Nothing more.

As for Arnold not being at his best is he didn’t need to be. He didn’t have to be at his best. Do you know why Arnold risked his legacy to compete one more time? Because it was a WEAK line-up. All the major contenders were gone like Sergio, Ferrigno and Nubret and all Arnold had to do was beat a bunch of B-Listers who were half his size. None of them could be a dominate Mr Olympia they were just keeping the seat warm until a guy like Haney showed up.

Zane beat Mentzer at the 79 Olympia but both guys were pretty small, and in 1980 Mentzer finished a distant 5th while Zane got 3rd. There were a lot of guys in the contest but they were all B-list or C-list in some cases so stacked doesn’t mean much at all just a lot of filler. Now if an A-list guy like Sergio had of competed Arnold may not of entered. Only Samir had the potential and drive but he finished 15th in 1980. So yeah full but weak line-up at this contest.

The big guys had moved on, and the second tier guys were left or do you really think a small guy like Dickerson could have beat Sergio? Nope. Between the Arnold and Haney years was the rise of the smaller, skinnier Olympians who put more emphasis on conditioning rather than mass.

Anyway Zane was way off, Dickerson was too small and Samir was a long way from achieving his potential so none them posed a significant threat to Arnold which is why he entered and won.

And finally, people tend to believe what other people tell them about the 1980 contest, that is until they get to see the actual evidence for themselves and realise it was really was much ado about nothing. For some people it can be quite a surprise to realise that the judging wasn’t some great scandalous betrayal of everything that was good and holy like Mentzer constantly claimed in his articles up until death finally let him get over it. It’s funny how people always say how Arnold’s prestige affected the results, when all this “controversy” is due to Mentzer’s constant crying about the result! It was MENTZER who has created a hype around himself! He didn’t like Arnold’s training style, so he didn’t like Arnold. Mike just could not stop acting like a little child, very bad sport.

Post by: illuminati on June 10, 2022, 06:00:18 PM
Interesting that I am quoted in that article but John Fair never talked to me. What he wrote was inaccurate as well. John goes into great detail about the judges at the 80 Olympia and their relationship with Arnold.

I had the original judges sheets so compiled the results and made some observations. I was standing in the Opera House before the judging and was talking with Frank Burwash and Peter McCarthy from Melbourne.

Frank was a contest promoter and Peter won the Mr Australia a couple of times plus he won every contest promoted in Australia at his peak. Someone came up to Peter and told him the judges meeting had started.

Peter was upset because no one told him. He raced off but we found out he wasn't allowed to judge because he missed the meeting. He was there for part of the meeting because he is in some of the photos.

I call this bullshit. Peter knows how to judge a bodybuilding contest and was the most respected and awarded bodybuilder in those days. If the accusation of fixing the contest is true then this is how it happened.

Paul Graham apparently decided to replace Peter with young Brendan Ryan who had won only a Junior Mr Australia title and no senior title that I am aware of. I actually judged the contest that he won.

I knew Brendan personally because I hung around Coogee Gym where Brendan trained as did Les Spendlove and Robert Nailon. We knew that Brendan stayed with Arnold when he visited LA. That suggests

they were mates and Brendan would favour Arnold. As it turned out Brendan gave Arnold clear first places in all rounds. Other judges gave several guys a 20 out of 20 score in one or more rounds. So

Brendan's score carried more weight than those who tied several guys. If we replace Brendan's score with the rightful Australian judge, Peter McCarthy, then Arnold might NOT have won. It was that close.

Of course, that is the prejudging and there is another judging at the finals. That is the time 'adjustments' can be made if promoters or officials feel 'errors' have occurred.

Fair quotes Dickerson as complaining about promoter Paul Graham who was a mate of Arnold when they lived together in late 68 up to Paul's arrest in early 69 for sending stolen cars to Australia.

Arnold wasn't arrested so many felt he owed Paul who took the rap. I was in Honolulu the day after Paul was arrested and relatives cut out a clipping showing a muscleman holding a car with the

caption about Paul being arrested by the FBI who handle cases involving interstate or foreign crimes. I sent the clipping to my buddy Robert Nailon who tells me he can't find it. Yeah, sure.

Dickerson swears that Graham was a bigot and called Chris a fag and wouldn't allow him to win the Olympia. Read what Fair wrote in that History article.

Fair used my photos and never paid me for them or got permission to use them. He won't reply to an email I sent him. Funny, that.

In the last photo below you can see Peter McCarthy to the left of Mike's head. Why wasn't he a judge that day?

I was thinking the same thing.

Saw him in person back in the early seventies.....words don`t do him justice though I could try to no avail....he looked like carved marble.........very impressive, in fact one of the best memories I have of ever seeing a top guy in great condition to this very day.

There really is no controversy. This ongoing myth really needs to die now. Controversial? Not really, big guys always have the advantage. Dorian over Ray and mostly Cutler over Dexter etc. Arnold was big and developed while the other competitors were tiny compared to him. Bigger is better in the real world.

First up. The story of CBS sports, which was covering the event, had supposedly Mentzer pegged as the winner before the contest results were announced. After the contest, they pulled their crew and never aired the coverage and never covered the O again. Well that’s all a lie.

The reality is there was never any statements by CBS about a fix or anything at all. No footage was broadcast because the filming crew had run out of tape. That’s all it was. They never filmed the whole thing. The story about CBS pulling because of a "fix"was conjured up by Coe and Mentzer since they were bitter losers and wanted to discredited Arnold. The story is still being kept alive by fans of Mentzer’s training philosphy who want to rewrite history, because what else do they have to hang on to? Nothing.

Secondly. Mentzer was never a contender. Mentzer still would have been in 4th place even if Arnold never entered. This whole Arnold vs Mentzer thing was created years later he was never a real threat onstage. He was a footnote and nothing more. Revisionist history. He became a contender years after the fact when he had a resurgence of popularity from his HIT training system. Back in 1980 he was just a footnote now somehow he was better than Arnold. People can’t seperate their need to embellish his brief competitive record because they like HIT. So they make it seem like Arnold and Mentzer were rivals, when Arnold barely knew Mentzer existed most of the time. Arnolds only rivals were Sergio and Ferrigno. Mentzer just wasn’t worth noting as competition and no one would remember him if he hadn’t become an author of HIT books later in life.

Mentzer couldn’t even beat Zane or Dickerson and they were pretty small. HIT devotees want to deify their idol though so they won’t stop claiming he was the rightful winner despite the evidence. Ludicrous. Mike Mentzer places lower than he felt and spends the rest of his ‘career’ whining about it.
And another thing about Mentzer- his HIT is BS. Did he train like that? Nope. First he says train 4 days a week, then his HIT gets more minimal over the years so he can get some attention. Finally, how often did he advocate training a bodypart- once every 12 days or something? Just a pile of BS to generate money. Nothing more.

As for Arnold not being at his best is he didn’t need to be. He didn’t have to be at his best. Do you know why Arnold risked his legacy to compete one more time? Because it was a WEAK line-up. All the major contenders were gone like Sergio, Ferrigno and Nubret and all Arnold had to do was beat a bunch of B-Listers who were half his size. None of them could be a dominate Mr Olympia they were just keeping the seat warm until a guy like Haney showed up.

Zane beat Mentzer at the 79 Olympia but both guys were pretty small, and in 1980 Mentzer finished a distant 5th while Zane got 3rd. There were a lot of guys in the contest but they were all B-list or C-list in some cases so stacked doesn’t mean much at all just a lot of filler. Now if an A-list guy like Sergio had of competed Arnold may not of entered. Only Samir had the potential and drive but he finished 15th in 1980. So yeah full but weak line-up at this contest.

The big guys had moved on, and the second tier guys were left or do you really think a small guy like Dickerson could have beat Sergio? Nope. Between the Arnold and Haney years was the rise of the smaller, skinnier Olympians who put more emphasis on conditioning rather than mass.

Anyway Zane was way off, Dickerson was too small and Samir was a long way from achieving his potential so none them posed a significant threat to Arnold which is why he entered and won.

And finally, people tend to believe what other people tell them about the 1980 contest, that is until they get to see the actual evidence for themselves and realise it was really was much ado about nothing. For some people it can be quite a surprise to realise that the judging wasn’t some great scandalous betrayal of everything that was good and holy like Mentzer constantly claimed in his articles up until death finally let him get over it. It’s funny how people always say how Arnold’s prestige affected the results, when all this “controversy” is due to Mentzer’s constant crying about the result! It was MENTZER who has created a hype around himself! He didn’t like Arnold’s training style, so he didn’t like Arnold. Mike just could not stop acting like a little child, very bad sport.
Very good points, and one more thing.
Mentzer was amazing on his own, and he had his fair share of trademark poses.
He had freaky limbs in general, which is very rare.
Also he was very photogenic, so his fans made an icon out of him.
Next to Arnold with his shallow chest, not so broad shoulders and not so thick back, he had no chance. (His deltoids were great but he had relatively compact frame)
Arnold on the other hand seemed like slim when off the sauce, but actually he had a large frame, I guess it is something to do with height difference.
Ferrigno was the only tall 1st tier bber who had truly large frame, and Arnold still had thicker arms

During the pre-judging you can tell Arnold held water. He was even sweating it off under the lights and toweled off. Legs weren’t getting the cuts and lower back had water. Once evening show started he was ripped.

Which was an issue, Franco was helping Arnold during prejudging by throwing Arnold towels to wipe sweat off and oil. Competitors later complained that it was unfair.

I remember when I was in middle school, we bought “Too Hot for TV”. It was a VHS tape of various controversial antics that were deemed too crazy for regular TV like a Hebrew being stomped to death by an angry moose that wandered into the city. I was hoping the finals for the 1980 Olympia would make the cut, but after rewinding and rewatching several times, I realized I’d been had! $14.95 plus 9.99 S&H down the fuckin’ drain!

Edit: never mind it was a chinaman with a brutal lack of awareness. Surprising in the least. This is Anchorage, not Shanghai, bucko. This was during the non-HD tube television days, so forgive me

I mean, what kid wouldn’t want to see this when the Internet didn’t have anything like this on it at the time?

I was watching 'The Comeback' on youtube, and noticed this. But I also felt Arnold looked, I dunno, kind of old and tired. Didn't have that enthusiasm from before. Which I guess could be attributed to his focus on Hollywood?

Agreed about Arnold.

I think it was a bit of anxiety/uncertainty. To begin he fucked up by taking cortisone shots which dulled his condition.  So he knew he fucked up.

Two- back in the 70's Arnold played his little gags and mind tricks and it seemed like everyone was in on the joke. And everybody fucked with every one else. But the new crop weren't having that. They didn't take his bullshit in good humor.  Those guys like Mentzer, Zane, Walker got really pissed at Arnold for entering at the last minute and then arguing about the weight groups. They definitely didn’t have a sense of humor about it and weren't just gonna laugh it off.

Three the show was more competitive.  A lot of guys were vying for the top spot and the prize money increased. Instead of having to beat 1 or 2 people he had to beat 15 guys. 4 or 5 were in as good if not better condition than he was.

So all these things sapped him of his characteristic confidence. Most of all knowing he sabotaged his chances by fucking up with cortisone must've weighed on him. Guys with Arnolds drive are often hardest on themselves. Im sure Arnold was kicking himself backstage.

No matter what, for some (and it is understandable) Arnold can really only compete with Arnold.  But he was the best that day.  Prime Arnold is to me, vastly superior to anyone before or since his time.  Unless Joseph gives in and his father gives him the keys,  we will not see anyone come close to him.

For those that think Arnold should have lost? 

Take solace in the fact that he is now a worthless cuck.  ;D

The best summary of this Olympia is that Arnold at ~80% of his best is still better than everyone at ~90-100% of their best in 1980.  He didn't have to beat/match the 1970-75 Arnold, he just had to beat the 1980 lineup.

Mentzer said in one of those videos that Arnold was doing lines of coke all day long. Arnold never struck me as the recreational drug user type. Certainly not someone feeding a habit to the point where he's doing lines during a contest. But being the social animal he was I can see him indulging at a Hollywood party.

Also ironic a meth addict calling him a coke head.

I can picture Mentzer hallucinating , having nightmares in deep meth-induced psychosis having a vision of Arnold back stage in Sydney , doing lines of cocaine with all the judges and Ben and Joe Weider, Paul Graham, Franco, Jusup, Waller,and Samir "Mike, if you want to get lean for a show you're supposed to use coc-CAINE not coca-COLA" then everyone bursting into laughter. A furious Mentzer pops another dexadrine and washes it down with a cup of his own urine.

Funny how nobody mentions Arnold's cocaine use ....... Mentzer became famous by trashing Arnold in his seminars ......

Only one encounter/meeting with Arnold was enough to wipe Mentzer out of the Stage for good .


Mentzer needed professional help right after and never got it .

It had plenty of views too, so maybe some people just like to retreat into history/nostalgia rather than face the shit-show going on in the World at the moment...?  I mean, I can be as guilty of avoiding the news some days as anyone - and I wear rose-tinted glasses, sonny...  ;D

But I remember just before Mikes death or maybe just after a story circulated where Arnold reached out to Mike when Ray went on dialysis and offered to help in some way.

Q. Wait a second, Mike and Arnold? Everyone knows about controversial placing at 1980 Mr. Olympia. Did Mike and Arnold finally make peace?

A. A few months ago, Arnold's assistant emailed Mike with a message from Arnold. Arnold was concerned about Ray's health conditions and tried to offer help. For those of you who don't know, Ray had a severe kidney problem. Arnold even wanted to come over to Ray's apartment and offer help personally. At some point Mike spoke to Arnold over the phone and was very touched by Arnold's kindness and concerns. Despite differences of opinions in the past, Mike always stated that Arnold was the greatest bodybuilder of all time and his contributions to the sport are enormous. During the shoot Mike has told me that he would like to have a reunion with Arnold on this videotape.

Everyone that knows arnold says he's the most generous guy and loves to give back, he doesn't forget anyone on his journey upwards.  The persona back in the day was part of his drive to succeed but alot was also a persona to create controversy and attention to create his brand. For example we know he did actually go to his dads funeral.
From the books I've read Arnold always liked Lou but also knew he was never a threat in competition and knows he's very insecure. A comment from a few years back someone said to Arnold, lou says he's more muscular then you now. Arnold said well let him have that,  he needs that more than I do right now.
Regarding Mentzer he never hated him but found it easy to wind him up, where as Mike took everything so seriously Arnold would always see the funny side of what he's doing but while giving 100%. Plus he always had this mindset of moving forward, not regretting and not looking back.  Some people like Mentzer let things eat them up and destroy them.

Also the Gallaach interview posted above is probably the most objective analysis I've heard of 1980. A very realistic and reasonable take.

X2

Most competitors were saying that Arnold wasn't even top 5

However, Gallaach has a good point, not the same competing against Arnold and flexing next to him , than having the best seat on the audience and watch the entire contest unfold right in front of you.

Lmao! So brutal yet true! Would rofl if an overly eager Lou in his ready to pounce position gets bumped by security and his hearing aid batteries simultaneously fall out creating a sudden panic.

I took a lot of photos of the 1980 Mr Olympia which was in Sydney. During the finals I was shooting colour slides and got a mate in the row in front of me

to take a video. Would you believe most of that was ruined because he got so excited he started stamping his feet. I haven't looked at it to see if I

recorded the booing at the end. This mate was cheering for Roger Walker who made the finals and thus all the excitement. What a shame

because I was in a great position in the middle of the Concert Hall and we would have had a good view of what happened.

The Weiders did not want CBS to air that footage even after all the time and money wasted from crew...... that pretty much was the end of Bodybuilding on National tv,

Imagine the amount of footage, photos, compromising material sitting in the Weiders archives that will never see the light of day now they're both deceased.

True. Its a baseless argument.  CBS probably sent crews to multiple events that day and eliminated most of them from their line-up. But nobody is sitting around talking about why CBS decided not to air the 1980 underwater basket weaving championships, or the New Zealand Bad Minton quarter finals. They got one winner- probably a major professional sports league game or perhaps the PBL and decided to air it instead of this other garbage based on viewership.

But nobody is sitting around talking about why CBS decided not to air the 1980 underwater basket weaving championships, or the New Zealand Bad Minton quarter finals. They got one winner- probably a major professional sports league game or perhaps the PBL and decided to air it instead of this other garbage based on viewership.
Fuck, are there any copies available to download?

Hell no! It was just too controversial. If you think the O was rigged, the UWBC was down right criminal.

     As others have pointed out, it's likely an urban legend about CBS. This is the documentary film that was shot. It was a documentary that Arnold and his friend Paul Graham produced. Go to the end and read the credits. Graham produced it, and they had their own director, editors and a whole crew, including the credit "additional cameras on contest night", which means they didn't get the footage from CBS, they shot it themselves. No mention of CBS anywhere. And full access, including backstage. Very clear that Graham and Arnold had exclusive rights to shoot the 1980 Olympia and made this documentary. CBS was not involved.

     The legend started when Arnold created the gimmick that he was going there to "do commentary" and then at the last second entered. Typical Arnold gimmick.

Enjoy the actual film.

Clear winner ..I have to agree 

I just don't understand why if this is the greatest comeback in BB history, most talk about contest; why Arnold on his  800 pages encyclopedia only touches that subject briefly, just one damn page!!!!!!  are you F kidding ?   that tells you right there its  a chapter he either regrets or not so proud about it  .

Because it wasn't a big deal at the time. It was only later when crybabies like mentzer and coe harked on about the 1980 contest being a fix because they didn't like Arnold.

Yes, controversy came out years later ,so it did the Encyclopedia (new edition) came out 1999....

However I have to correct myself ,Arnold only talks  1980 Mr.O in one page in his Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life
another gigantic book Which was released some 10 years ago .

See Arnold Run   the movie by Roland Kickinger and Bodybuilding greatest MC Bob Chick, is mainly focused on 1980 mr.O ..

Arnold did not like the movie at all, as they did not mention his kids and role as loving father"  ...and hated the attention given to 1980 mr.O  "....... I hope one day he can seat down and open up about the whole October 4 1980 .

The CBS footage remastered,  HQ, or better yet  Blu Ray will be worth the 35 years wait.

I went to a pro bodybuilding show once where only the auditorium was huge, but only about fifteen percent full.  All the people who payed for their tickets were in the nose bleed seats where you could barely see.  All the family members who got free tickets were right up front.  there were about twenty rows of seats in between these groups that were empty.  When men's bodybuilding started, Bob told all the people sitting in the back to come up front.  This is the state of bodybuilding today.

He was never a true bodybuilder. He got more lazy as he got older by working out less and less until he gave up on bodybuilding altogether. Like he gave up college, the Airforce, writing for Weider. In the end he gave up on life altogether. The guy was a failure.

This^  I don't think he ever enjoyed training but was using it as a means to an end. No true bodybuilder would just give up training for the rest of their lives. We are addicts to this shit.

Exactly. He never enjoyed training. The hit cult are the same, they don't like training. They want a short cut and mentzer gave it to them by lying to these saps that hit would deliver the best results by doing little as possible. They're just lazy with no passion for bodybuilding.

Yates was the same. He never enjoyed training but used it as a means to an end. Compare him to Coleman who just loved to train. He just had such passion for training. Just like Arnold did. Ever noticed the volume guys enjoyed their training and had fun with it while the hit guys looked miserable and grouchy? All that going to failure stressed out their central nervous systems making them hate their training.

Also consider that both mentzer and Yates took large dosages of drugs to make up for the lack of volume in their training.

Yates now does yoga. Yoga...😆. Real bodybuilders keep on training. Arnold, Serge, Lou, Danny, Robby, Frank, etc All kept on training into their golden years because they enjoyed it.

It's funny to think about this then listen to  John Little who's still bleating about Mike, daily, decades after his death . I mean it's embarrassing how much he crows about Mike to this day..fucking weirdo.

Little is weird. Try to debate him and he blocks you. Same with John Heart. They're just out to make money off mentzer's name. That is all.

All hit types are weird.

Because if you refute their caims, which is easy, they go straight into meltdown as you're exposing their BS. Heart is selling courses of hit, which are worthless, and Little is part of the mentzer estate which means he still makes money off the books he had written about mentzer, which are equally worthless. Ask them both to provide evidence of hit actually working and they deflect or point to two only known bodybuilders to use hit. Yates and mentzer. That's it. 5 decades of hit and they can only point to two drug monsters as so called successes of hit. Pathetic.

He was never a true bodybuilder. He got more lazy as he got older by working out less and less until he gave up on bodybuilding altogether. Like he gave up college, the Airforce, writing for Weider. In the end he gave up on life altogether. The guy was a failure.

Good thing he was never a true bodybuilder and was a failure otherwise he would have taken the Sandow 100 times

Mike would have offed himself in 1985 rather than 2001

I remember when I was in middle school, we bought “Too Hot for TV”. It was a VHS tape of various controversial antics that were deemed too crazy for regular TV like a Hebrew being stomped to death by an angry moose that wandered into the city. I was hoping the finals for the 1980 Olympia would make the cut, but after rewinding and rewatching several times, I realized I’d been had! $14.95 plus 9.99 S&H down the fuckin’ drain!

Edit: never mind it was a chinaman with a brutal lack of awareness. Surprising in the least. This is Anchorage, not Shanghai, bucko. This was during the non-HD tube television days, so forgive me

I mean, what kid wouldn’t want to see this when the Internet didn’t have anything like this on it at the time?

Yep. The thing is, like Yates and mentzer, they were all already built. They had peaked in their size and strength with conventional methods and not hit. They switched to hit methods to maybe maintain what they had built but never used it from the start to build size and strength. No bodybuilder has. Hit has such a very low to non existent success rate.

John Heart still does this easy to see through trick. He takes a bodybuilder who is already built and uses roids then claims the bodybuilder has made great gains on hit. It's all an obvious lie.

Listen I'm tired of hearing about the 80 Olympia.  The fact is Arnold hid Mentzers glasses and mustach trimmer prior to the atheletes meeting.  Mentzer almost fought Arnold over it until Boyer Coe stepped in.  This pissed off Arnold, who then got Waller to swap out Coe's toupee with roadkill (i believe it was Wallaby) Zane was already mentally broken from almost losing his pecker. This left that little Twink Dickerson as the only parson left for Arnold to beat.

I rarely post to this board -- only when I can contribute sometimg.

Years ago I talked to a person very well-versed on this event and, yes, it was apparently filmed by CBS and never aired. Someone would have to get a higher-up in the IFBB at the time to discuss it -- Wayne Demilia likely -- but CBS apparently wouldn't air it without an explanation as to what happened insofar as the judging went.

From what I was told, the judging was a mess and Arnold wasn't doing the required poses when asked. Apparently, when asked to do a reverse lat spread, he'd simply hit a most muscular. There were many other instances I guess where they couldn't make heads nor tails of what transpired.

Take from that what you will, but it's well known that it was supposed to air on CBS, there is footage of it, but, apparently, it was CBS's decision not to air it no only because of the controversial win but also what appeared to be nonsensical judging that didn't look very "sport" like.

 NO. CBS was NOT there! Arnold started that "rumor".  People were asking him if he was going to compete. They were all scared he was going to compete. He was worried they might drop out with some bullshit excuse so he said he was "going there to do the color commentary". That he was not competing. He said he was only getting big again for conan ( which WAS true) but then he decided to shut Mentzer the fuck up and compete. He was there with his OWN film crew to film it. NOT cbs. So when they seen a film crew and Arnold there the competitors all just thought it was for CBS until Arnold showed up last minute to the competitors meeting. And oh boy were there some pissed of mofos then!! So that is what actually happened. There was not a cbs crew or film. So let it go people. Arnold won He didn't look like Arnold but still better than those other panty wastes

I don't know if you guys read, but read the article. And, yes, CBS was there. And, yes, CBS Sports used to cover real sporting events -- and as the article said, they did air bodybuilding until 1979. In 1981 they passed. And they do care about the judging and other aspects. The "sport" came on TV in the 1980s, I think through ABC, but ABC (or it could've been NBC, can't remember) threatened to pull women's bodybuilding coverage when it got too drugged up and obvious -- and they did. I was at one contest before the coverage was pulled. Yes, they used to send real camera crews. That's how people saw things before the Internet.

It isn't, 1979 wasn't broadcasted because cbs weren't there. In 1980 cbs didn't broadcast because they weren't there. It's just a myth that started off as a rumour then become part of the1980 "scandal" (snigger) because both Coe and methzer thought that by saying that CBS wouldn't air the contest would give their story some weight because both of them were salty losers.

I heard this before.  Arnold had a film crew following him around and Platz did too. Someone else as well. Arnold said  it was for CBS.

Later the only video that was aired was produced by Paul Graham. The Comeback or total rebuild or whatever it's called. Not surprisingly it obviously features Arnold but a lot of Platz too.

Did 1980 kill prime time coverage of bodybuilding? Maybe but doubtful.  It was still a niche. Yeah Louie had Hulk but Arnolds career hadn't exactly taken off yet. Zane was the face of bodybuilding at the time and he had about as much charisma as a cardboard box.  Bodybuilding had much more mainstream appeal in the mid to late 80's at the height of Muscle and Fitness readership and the hieght of the super jacked Hollywood action hero: Arnold, Stallone,  Van Damme, etc...and yet none of those Olympias were covered by the major networks.  Some shows were covered by espn.

Maybe they didn't air it because it was competing with other networks television line up? Maybe there was a different sporting event that cbs aired instead. Its likely CBS aired 1979 but decided bodybuilding contests were actually fairly boring for a mainstream audience...who knows but there's a possibilty that CBS wasn't even there...

Im sure if Arnold was guaranteed to be color commentary on CBS he would've rather done that then compete. He probably left his options open until the last minute and when it seemed CBS wasn't going to need him (because they decided not to go) he said ok, ill compete. For him it was about any publicity to get his career in Hollywood going. He would've otherwise looked at bodybuilding competition as a step backward in his career since he was always goal oriented.

THE INTANGIBLE ARNOLD:
THE CONTROVERSIAL
MR. OLYMPIA CONTEST OF 1980
By John Fair

"Arguably the most devastating result was the
decision by CBS, in light of the controversy, not to
broadcast the 1980 event. About two weeks prior to the
contest, it sent a film crew to California under producer
Sherman Egan to gather human interest material on four
of the leading contenders- Mentzer, Coe, Zane, and
Dennis Tinerino-and then on to Sydney. A day or two
after the contest, Egan called Coe,
and we (Mike Mentzer, Frank Zane and
myself) met with Sherm. He made it
clear, that in his limited knowledge of

THE INTANGIBLE ARNOLD:
THE CONTROVERSIAL
MR. OLYMPIA CONTEST OF 1980
By John Fair

"Arguably the most devastating result was the
decision by CBS, in light of the controversy, not to
broadcast the 1980 event. About two weeks prior to the
contest, it sent a film crew to California under producer
Sherman Egan to gather human interest material on four
of the leading contenders- Mentzer, Coe, Zane, and
Dennis Tinerino-and then on to Sydney. A day or two
after the contest, Egan called Coe,
and we (Mike Mentzer, Frank Zane and
myself) met with Sherm. He made it
clear, that in his limited knowledge of
bodybuilding it was clear to him that the
contest was fixed and that they could
never show this on CBS, and they
would not even bother to edit it. He told

Well that was the year Franco won. But 81’ was probably the last year left on the contract and they took a chance that that IFBB wouldn’t sue them for missing the last year since the majority of the contract was complete and it was a waste of money for CBS.

They knew `80 was a joke & a fix so when Arnold´s little buddy was up for the next show they knew it would be even more controversial & it was.

He still had his trademark bodyparts and poses and actually bought a different package being extra dry, ripped and vascular.

Walker is just another salty loser. And that's the good thing about the 1980 olympia. Arnold exposed these cretins for being the fragile egotistical small men they really were. Especially old meth head. Imagine losing your sh!t for the next 20 years over some small bodybuilding contest that most people on the street don't even know about. Pretty pathetic really.

The reason Arnold did not mention the 1980 Mr.Olympia controversy in his Netflix documentary?


He regrets the way he disrespected just about every competitor when he first arrived in Sydney.

He wants to apologize to Boyer .... or at least waiting for Boyer to kick the bucket so he can revisit the whole 1980 victory

Trying to see things as they really were back in 1980.

Dickerson was having momentum as he was winning every pro contest he entered prior Olympia

Zane was going for 4th Sandow straight

1979 was Zane best showing and yet he beat Mentzer by just one point.

In 80 Mentzer came back better and Zane smaller. 

Everyone was expecting a battle between Dickerson and Mentzer.

I am gonna say this again. So  understand it this time people.  The ONLY reason why people think Arnold shouldn't have won is because he did NOT look like Arnold. Arnold used to be huge . He was lighter for this show so he doesn't look like Arnold used to look. He was better than everyone else though. So people look at him and say how bad he looked how thin he was or whatever but that is because you are comparing him to his former self. He was still bigger and better than those other clowns but didn't look like himself. Case closed.

Yeah most people think Arnold shouldn't have won it because he did not look like his former self.

However on the show, backstage every competitor felt Arnold shouldn't have placed higher than 5  ;D... So, there was a lot of guys thinking they looked better than Arnold standing next to him that day (Oct 4th 1980)

I said it before. Arnold was 80% of his peak but even with that when I watch the film I have him winning. Mentzer looked great but he was fifth. He deserved fifth. Roy Callender was ripped off. Dickerson deserved second. His density was on another level. Zane even though he came in super light at 183 lbs looked incredible. He sliced his dick up on a sharp edge on pool lounge chair tanning. He said that hampered his prep while he healed but he still looked fantastic.

Exactly. Arnold did NOT look like Arnold. BUT was still better than these guys. He was NOT leaps and bounds better like he normally was but still better. Zane is one guy who when standing alone has the perfect body. ( he was too small this year though)  A statue. Just great. BUT when he stands besides others he looks like a swimmer or a tri athlete or something.  Mentzer is almost the same. He looks good when alone but thats it really. Dickerson really has no reason to be on the stage .   He was ok but just not Mr Olympia material.  no real balance in body parts. Odd shaped. Back then they looked like real bodybuilders. These ass clowns nowdays look like 10 pounds of smashed assholes shoved into a 5 lb bucket.  They all look the same. Back then you could tell who was who by their bodies Not now. Same drugs same training same food and more of the same drugs . No one does anything different.  I liked the old school shows. Maybe up to 10 guys in a contest. Only a few shows a year and they all trained to be big cut proportioned and balanced. They could walk around the block without gasping for air. They didn't carry food with them. Or worry about "macros" or the "anabolic window "  smh.   They trained hard long and often. Ate when they could. slept well tanned and all hung out together.  What happened !!!

Pearl said no Arnold, i just said you're the most ferocious competitor I've ever seen. Arnold said that's good then and that was that.

Mentzer was on his way to be the golden child of bodybuilding  in the 80's

The Sandow was meant to be Mike Mentzer's in 1981 had he moved on from 1980

Being beaten by Arnold eventually killed him.

I noticed Platz has been fairly disparaging of Arnold lately.  LOL. After years of kissing Arnolds ass and being the biggest brown noser ever Platz has realized he's in the final stretch of his life and it never paid off. All the ass kissing and sucking up. He probably burned alot of bridges with his WBF involvement.  He tried acting and had two bit parts in a few obscure movies. So now he's got his schtick training people like he used to train and trying to generate some relevance by bad mouthing Arnold now? When everyone already knows Arnold was always out for himself? Haha. Lame.

Platz is really much of a bullshitter as old meth head was. Out to sell a gimmick. Most of the time he never squated ass to grass. He only did that occasionally. Most of the time he went to parallel. Just ask Lee Priest who had trained with Platz numerous of times.

Mentzer said something derogatory to Arnold which I don’t remember, and Arnold replied, “You didn’t win Olympia last year because your waist was hanging way out, and you won’t win it this year for the same reason.” With that Mentzer lunged at Arnold and several of the officials including Bill Pearl broke it up.

Mike always insisted the 80 Olympia was fixed. I believe he has a point. After the contest I was given all the judges' score sheets so could do an analysis of it. The big problem with the judging method was the foolish idea of scoring each round. Ben Weider had hoped to have this contest in the Olympic games so adapted a system of judging resembling diving, ice skating and gymnastics. Disaster occurred because they did not standardize the scores for each round. After the first round the scores should have been collected then a score given so that there was room for a higher score. They didn't do this and in all the rounds too many competitors received a 20 out of 20 score. In effect those scores did not separate the men. Multiply this error by 3 and the results are not accurate. The judges who did separate the men had their scores count for more.

A more important revelation was made by John Fair in an article. (link below) Paul Graham promoted the Olympia that year. They were room mates in Los Angeles in late 1968 and early 1969. Paul was arrested on January 29, 1969 in Honolulu by the FBI for sending stolen cars from LA to Australia. Arnold states in Total Recall, that he made some money driving cars to a dock in Los Angeles that were destined for Australia. Paul took the rap himself and spend over 2 years in a California prison. So Paul and Arnold were close. Randy Roach, 'Muscles, Smoke and Mirrors', believes Arnold did not enter until he knew he had the majority of judges who would place him first. Here is where I made an error when writing about the contest. I was standing in the foyer of the Sydney Opera House just before the prejudging. I was with Frank Burwash and Peter McCarthy. Someone came up to Pete and told him the judges meeting has already started. Peter swore and raced off but was told since he missed part of the meeting he was replaced by another judge but he could judge as a spare. Brendan Ryan, who won a Junior Mr Australia contest was a judge. I assumed Paul replaced Peter with Brendan. Nope, Brendan was already selected to judge. Peter was replaced by Dr Michael Walczak. Four of the judges placed Arnold first. Reg Park, Brendan Ryan, Albert Busek, and Mits Kowashima. Walczak placed Dennis Tinerino first and Arnold second. He placed Dickerson 8th. Jacques Blommaert and Dan Howard placed Dickerson first. Arnold was a good friend of Howard's but Dan didn't let that affect his score. There you have it, before the contest Arnold believed that 5 out of the 7 judges would vote for him. 4 did and that was sufficient to win.

I took the best photos at the prejudging at the 80 Olympia. A year earlier there was a pro bodybuilding contest there and I calculated where the best seat would be to take photos. So I selected a seat at waist level to the competitors on stage and of course in the middle of the Opera House. I had a sturdy tripod and an excellent camera with very good telephoto lenses. I took 360 black and white photos of the judging. At night I took colour slides. Here is an edited photo of 4 of the competitors. I removed all the background distractions.

For all anyone knows,the judges could be looking for the second place man in this call out.

I`ve seen it quite a few times where the overall winner doesn`t get called much, if at all, because he`s already a shoe in for first place, and the battle is for 2nd. place on down.

Anyway,it`s getting stupid, this was 43 years ago,and nothing will ever change the fact that

Post by: NarcissisticDeity on September 01, 2023, 12:59:26 AM
More has been said and written about this questionable competition than any other Mr. Olympia contest, and if you add these comments to the 1981 Olympia competition you get the most controversial two years in competitive bodybuilding ever. In my mind Arnold didn’t deserve to win in 1980 nor did
Colombu deserve to win in 1981.

Did I deserve to win? I was in great shape, but I could have been better. With my mind set on winning four Mr. Olympia titles, I stood in my living room at our Palm Springs house looking out at the pool. It was early August, and I was right on schedule with my Olympia preparation. 208 pounds rock hard and angry about my life of deprivation and sacrifice.

“Oh hell, another 8 weeks of torture to look forward to” I said to myself as I kneeled to sit in the lawn chair near the edge of the pool. As I did the chair slid into the pool with me in it. I felt a hard bump in the groin and sunk to the bottom, dazed. Crawling out there was blood gushing from my penis. The bulbous urethra was smashed. Christine rushed me to the hospital, “keep saying your mantra” she advised.

Four hours later the doctor showed up, he’d been golfing. The nurses had been taking turns squeezing my penis to control the bleeding, but it wasn’t working too well. Finally, the doctor taped me in such a way that pressure was put on the urethra area. The bleeding stopped, a catheter was inserted, and I
went into shock.

Passing out, I thought I was dying. There was a lot of light, and I felt free of all cares and worries. “I could check out right now” I thought and then woke up in a hospital bed. I was there for at least a day (don’t quite remember) and didn’t know what to think or do. So, I called Arnold. He’d given me contest advice for the last several years and I really need it now.

“The word is at Gold’s Gym that you took so many steroids your dick exploded!” Arnold laughed. I expected derisive remarks from the Gold’s animal pit contingency and explained my situation. “What do you think I should do?” I asked the Oak. “You should go to Australia and defend your title” he told me. “You are training hard, are you going to compete?” I asked. “No, I’ll be there doing the TV commentary for CBS” he told me.

To further compound bad advises, my doctor told me I’d be OK to compete in 8 weeks. As it turned out I lost a good 15 pounds because of the accident, the extra muscle mass I’d added was gone. Would I be good enough to win?
A catheter had been installed in my urinary tract and it was anything but comfortable. “How long does this need to stay in?” I asked my doctor. “Six weeks is normal.” He answered. “How about 6 days, I have to train for the Mr. Olympia”. So out came the catheter and I went home feeling skinny and weak.
Immediately I called Canada as I had a posing exhibition scheduled for the following weekend. No way I’d be able to do that without having trained for it, I better cancel I thought. But I learned they couldn’t get a replacement, so I had to do it. Then lying on my sofa, the bleeding started up again and lasted 12 hours.

Phoning my doctor, he told me a small blood vessel probably ruptured and to just stay still until the bleeding stops. “The problem is that you don’t know how to be sick. You need to realize your condition before you can heal.” He was right I accepted my fate.

It was a lot of lying around for the next few days. Should I even go to Australia? Arnold and even my doctor said I’d be able to compete. Problem was I didn’t know if and when the bleeding would start up once I began training. But I wasn’t ready to start yet, a few more days of rest up to the Wednesday before we left for Canada, and I got in one workout which consisted of walking one mile. We flew to Toronto, I posed, and the audience wondered how I ever won Mr. Olympia looking like I’d just gotten out of the hospital (which was actually the case). Then we flew to Calgary for a seminar, and I was exhausted.

But after resting a few days at home I started weight training again. I’d lost a good 15 pounds, but my strength came back pretty fast. I’d do a set and then open my shorts to check if my penis was bleeding. Luckily, it wasn’t.
Two weeks later I had an exhibition in Philadelphia and people who saw me in Canada couldn’t believe the transformation. Talking with Robbie Robinson backstage, he told me he wasn’t going to Australia to compete. “Why not “ I asked. “I heard the contest is fixed for Arnold to win” he told me. I began to wonder if I’d made the right choice. Time would tell.

There was no way I could gain the muscle mass back in the remaining three weeks, I’d just have to go for maximum definition. It was a long, long charter flight to Australia and all the competitors from the USA were on board.

There was Mike Mentzer, cocky and sure he’d win, Dennis Tinerino preaching how he was saved in his jail cell by Jesus Christ after being arrested. Christ became his training partner and Dennis was confident he would win too. So was Chris Dickerson who thought he deserved to win since he’d been cleaning up in all the grand pris the entire year. Many were confident but I wasn’t sure. I’d learned that hope was note enough but I hoped I was wrong. After all I was still Mr. Olympia.

But I knew although I was in great shape I wasn’t as good as I could have been, and this made it more difficult to act like the winner on stage. I was feeling the stress and my face looked drawn and tired.

The morning before the competition there was a meeting of the competitors with the judges and officials at the Sydney Opera house where the contest was being held. “Same old crap” I said to myself. Having to listen to all this nonsense was unnerving and tedious since prejudging would be right after. The
vote was to eliminate the under 200-pound class and I think this was the turning point in professional competitive bodybuilding. Now everybody had to weigh over 200 (the more the better) to stand a chance and they would only be judged in a single group all together. As the meeting dragged on Arnold and Mentzer began arguing. Mentzer said something derogatory to Arnold which I don’t remember, and Arnold replied, “You didn’t win Olympia last year because your waist was hanging way out, and you won’t win it this year for the same reason.” With that Mentzer lunged at Arnold and several of the officials including Bill Pearl broke it up.

Finally, the pre-judging started. As we stood outside the dressing rooms there was Arnold with his gym bag which removed all doubt that he’d entered. “Do you want to share a dressing room with me, Frank? He asked. “Why are you going to try to psych me out?” “No were making a video (Arnold’s comeback)
and I thought you might like to be in it,” Arnold retorted.” “I’ll pass” I answered and retired to a private room while Tom Platz joined Arnold for a co-starring role in his film. I wondered why Arnold had misled me and gave me the ‘wrong advices.’ Was he getting even for my statement on ABC tv when he asked me how it felt to win Mr. Olympia for the third time and I answered, “It feels even better than when I beat you for Mr. Universe?”




So, pre-judging began with all the comparisons, and I found myself standing next to Arnold, so I said to him “How does it feel competing after not being on stage for 5 years?” “It’s really hard” he said and with that I laughed and went into a most muscular pose. This photo of me laughing next to him appear in his Arnold Encyclopedia with the caption “Arnold tells Zane a joke during the Olympia competition, so he’d break his concentration and laugh.” Not true but no one would know the difference until now.

Pre-judging concluded and I was exhausted, too tired to even leave the Opera House to eat so Christine went out and brought food back as I took a short nap. After eating and feeling a little better we took a short walk outside before the evening show started.

It seemed like everybody was in this contest. Arnold certainly didn’t look his best in pre-judging by he looked much better in the evening show but still not good enough to win. I was impressed with the size Boyer Coe had added, Mentzer looked about as good as he did last Olympia, Dickerson’s ballet posing routine only showed fancy moves but little muscle, and I couldn’t see past Platz’s thighs. I thought I had a chance because I was more defined than anyone. But when judges see you bigger one year and smaller the next the likelihood of winning decreases. It was hard to match my 1979 combination of size, muscularity, and confidence and there was some doubt in my mind as I did my posing routine on stage. The crowd loved it, and this boosted my spirits.

The contest concluded and we waited for the winners to be announced. This has always been the most challenging part of all the competitions in which I’ve participated: waiting for the winner to revealed. Most of the time I knew after pre-judging. It was easy to tell: if you won everybody wanted to be around you, if you didn’t win nobody said much to you. But things could change in the evening show voting if you looked way better or much worse than in the afternoon. If you sweat a lot in pre-judging, you’ll be more muscular at night; if you eat a lot after pre-judging, you may be smoother and puffier at night.

“In sixth place is Roger Walker of Australia” came the voice from the podium. He was in good shape, and they want an Australian to be in the top six I thought. “In 5th place Mike Mentzer USA” “Wow, he’s angrier than hell and can’t believe he’s 5th” I said to myself. “4th place Boyer Coe USA” And at that moment I had a strong feeling that my name would be called next. “In 3rd place Frank Zane USA”. Loud booing from the audience preceded “In second place Chris Dickerson USA” “I guess they like ballet” I thought. And the winner of Mr. Olympia 1980….(who else?)….Arnold Schwarzenegger. I’d accepted my trophy, bowed to the audience, and left the stage. Walking with trophy in hand backstage, I set it down and put on my warm-up suit. Picking up the trophy, the oil from my body had spread to the trophy and it slipped out of my hand, hit the floor, and fell apart.

I leaned over , looked at it and took the name plate off it that spelled Mr. Olympia 1980 third place. And walked out to the back of the auditorium where Arnold was addressing the audience from the stage “This proves once and for all that I am the greatest bodybuilder of all time.” Booing must have gone on for a full minute. “Well, the audience has good taste” I thought. I met Christine and we walked out the backstage door and there were hundreds of people waiting to greet us with cheers. There was a party, but we went back to our hotel, I had a few glasses of wine and went to sleep. The next day we went to a barbecue on the beach across from the Coogee Beach Motel where we stayed. We picked out steaks, cooked them and sat down. “What’s the strongest beer you have” I asked the beer mate. “This one in the white can” I took two. But the booze couldn’t erase what had
happened from my mind. I had a long time to think about it on the flight home. “Why the accident, how freaky, why me? It wasn’t until I realized it that I had created conditions for it’s occurrence by my attitude. I’d spent so much time being angry and resentful, I was “pissed off” when it occurred.

The result was a physical manifestation of this anger: My pissing was off with a smashed urethra. This negative body metaphor had become selffulfilling prophesy. I had created my experience with negative thinking and emotion. Back in California everything got back to normal. Arnold was away making his Conan movie and when he returned, I saw him at World Gym, and he asked me out to breakfast. I had agreed to pose in Columbus Ohio for his Mr. World contest but after the Australia fiasco I refused. Since Arnold had MC’d a contest Christine and I ran that summer I owed him this posing exhibition and when I didn’t do it letters from his attorney began arriving threatening a lawsuit. “Just pay my attorney costs and we’ll call it even” he told me, so I did. Then Arnold explained his contest behavior by comparing it to politics: “Suppose Jimmy Carter approaches Ronald Regan before the election and tells him his plan to win. Regan would be a fool to not take advantage of this information. Competition is about strategy, not friendship.”

He was right. I had mistaken a competitor for a coach. Touché. I didn’t compete the next year. The wise move would have been not to compete in 1980 but enter in 1981. In a fair contest I’d beat Franco Colombu but how fair did it turn out to be? Dickerson thought he had the title only to place second to Colombu whose injured leg looked different than his other one. Judging from what I saw Danny Padilla should have won.

I still wanted to win four Olympias and losing in 1980 fueled my resolve to do so. In 1982 I’d come in bigger, after all the critics said I needed to get bigger.

For all anyone knows,the judges could be looking for the second place man in this call out.

I`ve seen it quite a few times where the overall winner doesn`t get called much, if at all, because he`s already a shoe in for first place, and the battle is for 2nd. place on down.

Anyway,it`s getting stupid, this was 43 years ago,and nothing will ever change the fact that
"Arnold is numero uno"!  :D

It is always interesting to debate things that were controversial. What happened in 1980 re the call outs was the judges put who they wanted to see on a piece of paper and the head judge selected one without seeing what it was. It just happened that the 4 called out didn't include Arnold. Sure, that judge might have already selected Arnold and was looking for the other places. I was there and took this photo. Arnold states that he never likes to do anything where there is doubt about what will happen to him. At the moment when he wasn't in that call out he was worried and that shows in the two photos posted here. Why would his head be down like that if he wasn't worried about what was happening. He surely feared he might not win this contest.

By the way, Les, just because the judges picked the winner doesn't mean the best person won. When Arnold was compared to the top guys he dwarfed them in chest and arms. Calves were good, too. Zane and Dickerson lost in those comparisons. If we go back to the year before this contest then it is clear that Chris Dickerson won several of the pro shows leading up to the 80 Olympia.

Don´t think Arnold was worried because he knew he would win, Bill pearl said he was very cocky or aggressive on stage doing what he wanted, Roger walker also confirmed this.
He won not because of his physique but because his friends gave him it.

Fact is arnold came back and they had nothing on him, he looks superior, bigger and more pop in all the main poses, everyone disappeared from the side next to him, even his lat spread actually made the second biggest guys, walkers look not so big.

Poor old Zane. First he broke his penis, then he broke his trophy. Mike Mentzer lost the 80 Olympia then later lost the will to live.

There are others even less fortunate.  Angry little men who live with regret. 43 years later, still angry at themselves for having listened to the wrong advices. Their only recourse is to, impotently, jab at the Austrian Oak, posting endlessly on internet forums, attempting to detract from Arnold's accomplishments,  not having any of their own to focus on instead. Waging a never ending war against reality.  Looking in the mirror each morning telling themselves that Arnold stole the 80 Olympia. They cannot come to a consensus on who should've won; they only know that it shouldn't have been Arnold. These people live an empty existence, knowing the lies they tell themselves carry about as much weight as Rocky telling Mick he won the first match against Clubber Laing. Only, unlike Mick, these little men must go on living, knowing the truth.

Their inability to cope makes you wonder: would they trade in the last years of their lives if it would produce total consciousness on their deathbed? To no longer be haunted, daily, by the thought of Arnold's victory propelling him into a superstardom beyond their wildest imagination? Knowing the thoroughly uninspred existence that would come to define their own legacy?

Mike always insisted the 80 Olympia was fixed. I believe he has a point. After the contest I was given all the judges' score sheets so could do an analysis of it. The big problem with the judging method was the foolish idea of scoring each round. Ben Weider had hoped to have this contest in the Olympic games so adapted a system of judging resembling diving, ice skating and gymnastics. Disaster occurred because they did not standardize the scores for each round. After the first round the scores should have been collected then a score given so that there was room for a higher score. They didn't do this and in all the rounds too many competitors received a 20 out of 20 score. In effect those scores did not separate the men. Multiply this error by 3 and the results are not accurate. The judges who did separate the men had their scores count for more.

A more important revelation was made by John Fair in an article. (link below) Paul Graham promoted the Olympia that year. They were room mates in Los Angeles in late 1968 and early 1969. Paul was arrested on January 29, 1969 in Honolulu by the FBI for sending stolen cars from LA to Australia. Arnold states in Total Recall, that he made some money driving cars to a dock in Los Angeles that were destined for Australia. Paul took the rap himself and spend over 2 years in a California prison. So Paul and Arnold were close. Randy Roach, 'Muscles, Smoke and Mirrors', believes Arnold did not enter until he knew he had the majority of judges who would place him first. Here is where I made an error when writing about the contest. I was standing in the foyer of the Sydney Opera House just before the prejudging. I was with Frank Burwash and Peter McCarthy. Someone came up to Pete and told him the judges meeting has already started. Peter swore and raced off but was told since he missed part of the meeting he was replaced by another judge but he could judge as a spare. Brendan Ryan, who won a Junior Mr Australia contest was a judge. I assumed Paul replaced Peter with Brendan. Nope, Brendan was already selected to judge. Peter was replaced by Dr Michael Walczak. Four of the judges placed Arnold first. Reg Park, Brendan Ryan, Albert Busek, and Mits Kowashima. Walczak placed Dennis Tinerino first and Arnold second. He placed Dickerson 8th. Jacques Blommaert and Dan Howard placed Dickerson first. Arnold was a good friend of Howard's but Dan didn't let that affect his score. There you have it, before the contest Arnold believed that 5 out of the 7 judges would vote for him. 4 did and that was sufficient to win.

I took the best photos at the prejudging at the 80 Olympia. A year earlier there was a pro bodybuilding contest there and I calculated where the best seat would be to take photos. So I selected a seat at waist level to the competitors on stage and of course in the middle of the Opera House. I had a sturdy tripod and an excellent camera with very good telephoto lenses. I took 360 black and white photos of the judging. At night I took colour slides. Here is an edited photo of 4 of the competitors. I removed all the background distractions.

Yeah and Arnold still looks the best.

Mentzer said something derogatory to Arnold which I don’t remember, and Arnold replied, “You didn’t win Olympia last year because your waist was hanging way out, and you won’t win it this year for the same reason.” With that Mentzer lunged at Arnold and several of the officials including Bill Pearl broke it up.

Too short. No back development and too much fat in the glutes. He really thought he was going to win. 😀😃😄😁😆😅🤣😂

When I saw this photo it told the story of the shape Arnold was in. This was the first call out for comparisons and Arnold wasn't in this group. There he is with his head down wondering why he entered the contest. Mike is smiling because he felt the call out meant those guys placed ahead of Arnold. That wasn't to be and when Arnold was called in later groups he rose to the occasion and stole the show.

Arnold won at just 80% of his best. Mentzer was a sick, weak, mentally ill guy in his 40's.  He looked like he could barely walk and picking up a 45lbs plate was a chore for him. Some say it was this contest that ruined him but my view it was his meth drug use and smoking.  Zane is always quick to say he beat Arnold. When was that? 1969?  Roy Callender looked amazing but was always over looked. Very little Weider coverage for him but he was just as good as Robby.  Dickerson for a period in his long contest history for three years looked incredible. I think behind scene knowledge of his gay films that were out there kept him from winning the big one until they couldn't deny him anymore. Coe looked amazing but deserved maybe to be switched out with Zane for third. Mentzer fans cry foul but he came in fifth. No he didn't come in second, third or fourth.

Think Arnold sitting in his various mansions thinking about the 1980 Olympia?  Have you seen his spread in Austria?

Zane at least built a very good business for himself and did things his way. He is very aloof, laid back and a bit odd, so 'acting' was not for him.
Though he gave it a try and did not like it or do well at it... He 'worked for himself' for life (post teaching) so a 'win' in my book...

When I saw this photo it told the story of the shape Arnold was in. This was the first call out for comparisons and Arnold wasn't in this group. There he is with his head down wondering why he entered the contest. Mike is smiling because he felt the call out meant those guys placed ahead of Arnold. That wasn't to be and when Arnold was called in later groups he rose to the occasion and stole the show.
How did Arnold manage to improve his middle delts, still sloped but very round and looks heavy, probably HGH helped him with his conditioning.
Even his forearms looks great, which was relatively mediocre compared to the rest of his arms (Mentzer is the king of forearms)
I find it stupid to call Arnold weak in 80' Olympia, he dwarves the rest of the lineup so badly, and he has fantastic conditioning, his legs are slimmer, but he is still ahead of the competition in general.

Zane at least built a very good business for himself and did things his way. He is very aloof, laid back and a bit odd, so 'acting' was not for him.
Though he gave it a try and did not like it or do well at it... He 'worked for himself' for life (post teaching) so a 'win' in my book...
Yeah, Zane fared better than most.

I love the conspiracy theories about 1980. Especially the ones from 1980 about the CBS film crew, or George Butlers film crew. LOL!

 Turns out it was neither.  It was Paul Grahams film crew for a shitty little amateur film that no one has ever heard of other than fairly die hard fans of the sport. Hilarious.

Padilla has said in numerous occasions that Arnold  at 85% was still good enough to beat anyone in 1980.  And he even said Dickerson didn’t deserved to be runner up. 

I doubt he “signed” the 1981 infamous open letter.

and if they really did say that they are admitting that they would look like children against
a fully trained Arnold.

like Robert Kennedy (rip) said.  leave it alone.  if Arnold gets pissed off about this contest he
will get serious again and win every single pro show for the next 10 years.

    Funny how they all say Arnold should not have won but none of them can tell you should have won!  ( well Mentzer did but he always said himself. lol. I remember at 16 years old and i was working out at a gym in Toledo Ohio and one day my training partner said he just heard that Arnold had won.  I was excited to see the pictures ( always about 3 months or so after the shows the magazines had pics) And when I got the magazine I remember seeing Arnold and I thought to myself about how bad he looked.  BUT then I seen him with the others and said oh ok he won.  The reason I felt bad was because I expected him to look like ARNOLD.  He of course didn't. BUT he was still better than everyone else but not by a whole lot like he used to be. Even he admitted it. So case closed. Arnold didn't look like Arnold but he didn't have to. He just had to be better than everyone else which he was. The contest was close but he still deserved to win

That is exactly why 1980 was,is and will be the most controversial BB contest in history.

Sure people will often say 1981 was worse ... saying either Platz or Padilla should have won it.
or in 2007 V. Martinez was the uncrowned mrO , or Shawn Ray 96' ,Sergio 72' or Nasser 97' ....etc

But when you ask who is the uncrowned 1980 mrO ?

Yep. This is how exactly it was. Arnold won but barely. There was no fix. That's just a conspiracy conjured up by Coe, Zane and most of all that dead old junkie meth head so they could discredit Arnold. Another reason Arnold entered the olympia was because he helped Zane in his preparation in the last Olympia. When Arnold asked Zane what it felt like to win the Olympia Zane retorted "Well Arnold, it fells almost as good as when I beat you." That's was an slap in the face to Arnold who had helped Zane and Zane just spat it back in his face on live tv. Zane the so called Zen Master. He was nothing of the sort and actually quite the asshole.

Course there was that deadbeat junkie methzer. He was going around bashing Arnold in the magazines making out that his Heavy Duty system was superior than Arnold's way of training. Arnold had stated that methzer had found what worked for him. He didn't agree with it but left it at that. But methzer had to just go out and slag Arnold of at every opportunity just to sell his crappy way of training.

They say Arnold is an asshole but in actual fact these guys were the real assholes. Once Arnold had retired they were all going around running their mouths off at Schwarzenegger. Fortunately he put them in their place by beating them in the contest. Their petty little minds and fragile egos couldn't handle it. Zane smashed his trophy then went to his room to cry. Coe threw a childish tantrum and meth head had a complete break down.

Arnold was the clear winner. No fix. No conspiracy. Just a bunch of salty jealous b-list bodybuilders who thought they were better than they actually were who didn't like the fact they got their asses handed to them by Arnold. He had the last laugh.

Arnold Schwarzenegger made an appearance on the highly rated television program 'The Mike Walsh Show' preaching the benefits of bodybuilding for both men and women.

At this point in time Arnold had not shared his intention of competing in the 1980 Mr Olympia title in Sydney, Australia.

Funny how in recent years Padilla ,Banout and Platz say they knew all along that Arnold was entering the O,

you can't find a single article video or audio from the first 20 years after 1980 Olympia of them saying so ....
they were all in shock when Arnold was announced as a competitor in Sidney.

In reality, only Franco knew for certain.

Back in the day The Olympia was taped and after Weider publications milked the entire contest photos articles in magazines, then months later the contest would finally be shown on tv ...  Even the Lee Haney years" were on ESPN months after the actual show......

Dorian Yates  has said in several occasions that Arnold did in fact bough the CBS footage as soon as he could so no one could air it.

More conspiracy bs. There's no evidence that cbs were even there. There's plenty of footage of the 1980 olympia that shows what actually went on. The footage of methzer saying this is bullshit is so satisfying to watch. He really thought he was going to win. What a berk.

I wonder what kind of shape Larry Scott was in 1980. He’d be turning 42 eight days after the show which seems kind of old for competitive bodybuilding back then. Upon further schmoesearch, I see he made a comeback of some sort and didn’t place well in ‘79

This would've been around the '79 comeback -

I've seen a few pics of the time between the '79 - '80 comeback, it was like the above. He looked great, but old against the new crop.

It’s known that Arnold and Dorian aren’t friends, That’s exactly why Dorian says that Arnold bought the infamous footage so people couldn’t see clearly that Mentzer was better in 1980 Lol.

I have heard him mention it on several occasions  throughout the years in videos /expos. including the  Valuteintment “ interview.

   Ok guys this the last time I tell you this. CBS was NOT there!!!  Arnold told people he was going to do the commentary for CBS ( wide world of sports)  because they were asking if he was going to compete ( he was getting big again for the movie Conan). So he told them that. Plus when they would have seen him on the plane they would have been suspicious as well.  Plus he didn't want the sissy nancies pulling out of the show if they knew he was competing and then ruin it for the promoter. So they did NOT know until Arnold showed up to the athletes meeting. Then everyone knew they lost and got all pissed. He beat them before he even got on stage . Bunch of weak people. There now there should be no more discussion on if CBS was there. They were NOT.
       And Dorian?  Again a person who has nothing but bodybuilding. Everyone wants to be like Arnold. Rich movie star famous etc.  But Arnold knew back then there was no money in bodybuilding. He used it as a stepping stone. He won 1000 dollars for all of his olympia wins except in 1980. And then only because he was increasing prize money at his contests. So he worked his ass off to get where he is. He got bodybuilding to be popular. He went on tv . Talk shows commercials . He did charity work. He was already a millionaire in the early 70s from his real estate and other business ventures outside of bodybuilding. These people like meth head and dorian and coleman and pretty much everyone else thinks they will be Arnold just by winning  a contest. Then sitting around waiting for everything to fall into their lap.  Smh.  Then they retire and have nothing. Their bodys are shot. They have no real income and have to do personal training etc. Dorian is full of shit. He was a chemical experiment taken to the extreme and looked what happened. No one knows who the fuck he is outside of bodybuilding. He thought Arnold dissed him when Arnold said this "  and this guy from england comes over and wins the olympia and then goes back to england and no one knows who he is"  Dorian took that as a  insult. He thought he was on Arnolds level or even "above" it. Smh .  When Arnold said that he was talking about how bodybuilding is dying. No one is doing anything for the sport like he did. ( tv shows commercials prison seminars charity events etc )  There so now everyone knows

 Oh and one last thing . Arnold NEVER worried about Methhead Mike. He in fact didn't worry about any of them. They were all good but Arnold knew he was better. His mind set never let him think otherwise except once with Sergio. So no he wasn't worried. He knew zane couldn't because zane called him for advice after he got his balls cut from a lawn chair. He NEVER put down Mikes training or anyone elses. He always said that "mike found a training system that worked for him" and things like that.  He did say that people like Methhead and franco both have powerful looking bodies but when they flex nothing really changes. He said they need to do more sets more reps more exercises and train more often to give their body a different look ( or something like that) and it is true. He wasn't putting them down but bodybuilders who trained like Arnold and the rest had more "pop" in the poses.  Look at these bag of shits nowdays. They all look the same and they don't "pop" when they pose. And wtf is this posing with their tounges all hanging out and pushing their legs against each other and straining. Looks like they are constipated and trying to take a shit. Posing should be gracefull and asthetic and smooth and look like they are not flexing hard etc. Bodybuilding is dead and its because of the rich schmoes  and other idiots who just want to see "freaks".

I've always heard Boyer, Samir, Danny, all of them tell it that Arnold said "you lost the Mr. Olympia because of your big belly."

Which always seemed childish and non-sequitor to me. But this makes sense. Arnold actually said "Mentzer, the only thing bigger than your mouth is your belly". Hahahaha Roflol!!! You know Mike's psyche was shattered at that exact moment!!!

Why would a perfect reaction need to be broadcast anyway, it would have no effect on viewership or ratings or piss off the average person watching at home.
Ive heard the booing going on for ages and drowing out cheers was bullshit anyway, there were boos but plenty of cheers too.
Yea there was a film crew there making "the comeback" or "total rebuild".

No, the booing was loud and lasted for some time. Eventually the audience did applaud Arnold. I had a friend take a movie of the posedown and presentation but he was so excited about Roger Walker that he kept stamping his feet and the film was ruined. I should have the audio, though. Must get the movie from my ex and have it processed. Then I will post the sound track here which should stop all this speculation.

No homo here! Geoff Stannard was the guy taking the movie. I was in the row behind taking photos. I even got John Balik a seat beside me for the finals.

I believe the booing was because the audience favoured Chris Dickerson who gave an artistic presentation. Arnold was popular in Australia and this is the first time

he was booed. The MC interviewed Arnold but the crowd kept booing. Eventually the booing stopped and applause emerged for Arnold.

There's no way was this can air on national tv!? What Arnold dwarfing Coe himself and everyone else for that matter, schooling them  at only 80%.
Why would a perfect reaction need to be broadcast anyway, it would have no effect on viewership or ratings or piss off the average person watching at home.
Ive heard the booing going on for ages and drowing out cheers was bullshit anyway, there were boos but plenty of cheers too.
Yea there was a film crew there making "the comeback" or "total rebuild".

The total Rebuild " made no sense as only featured Arnold making comments days after the contest was over, him being already back in USA , and Tom Platz who wasn't even top ten in the contest lol .....

All the real footage of actual contest with Bill pearl as commentator interviewing contestants both during and after contest has never been released.

During the editing, You can pretty much pick and choose cheering and applause from other segments of the film prior the results, according to Zane,Coe,Duval, Mentzer,Dickerson etc ...that's what happened.


The Total Rebuilt was a joke  ... And none of competitors wanted part in it ...besides Banout, Platz and Padilla who at the time weren't as relevant.

That's what I thought too but the pic of Pearl in a suit holding a microphone that has the CBS logo on it. Still have no idea how that works. There's been demand for it for years. Perhaps it was planned but crew never went? Or something else bumped it off the TV schedule? Who can say why it was not aired ? As the promoter of the show I would imagine that Paul Graham would've been I volved in some way. And he was just a puppet promoter for Arnold. Maybe Arnold himself thought 'I can't let this be aired on TV. There's boos in the audience,  I look like shit compared to my previous shape. This could damage my movie career.' Who knows? But the thought that CBS executives gave a shit about "controversy" or made decisions based on what Boyer Coe or MM or Zane had to say? Baldetdash!

No cbs logo on that camera. But everything else is spot on. Although the idea that Arnold didn't want it to be aired is void since the photos of the olympia would be published and the fact that he made the short film Total Rebuild centring around his 1980 comeback I don't think Arnold had any issues with his appearance.

Lol After some research" I think Boyer meant that when he actually sat down and got to see the UNEDITTED footage, the loud booing when Arnold was announced the winner was evident .... also, Bill Pearl interviewed top contestants giving their impressions back stage regarding  the results and basically, they were trashing the Judges and Arnolds shape lol .......you could even hear the crowd still booing at that point ....


Remember, Arnold wanted to use his comeback victory to promote his image for the Conan movie , but that footage alone on national tv was probably do the opposite had it air as taped....  same for Weider and IFBB image.

Judging from CBS film ,for some stranger reason Roger walker and Dickerson seemed more dense and were crowd favorites at that point the crew even followed them more than Arnold himself .... As Arnold was looking like a 3rd place finisher

So It looks like Arnold and friends agreed to keep the footage "for free" to release it at some point during the Conan premier (18 months  later?) ....  but Arnold knew better.  ;D

Great editing job, who did this ? a Mentzer/Getbigger ?

Just in this thread alone you can find interviews/audio of Padilla saying Arnold won  despite not being 100 %

Tinerino had a great point of why this is the most controversial Olympia

Never mind Arnolds shape; Any pro bodybuilder would have felt disrespected the way Arnold entered the show, treated fellow competitors and didn't listen to the judges while posing .


I still think Arnold was the best on stage though
but ,   can you name a MrOlympia winner that regrets winning a particular sandow ?

In his Netflix Bio series , Arnold did not mention the 1980 Olympia , So basically mainstream audiences think he was done with bodybuilding after winning O 1975 in Africa ,  that tells you right there something is off. like he wants to erase that chapter of his life, At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Arnold believes he didn't compete in Australia 1980.lol

I have no doubt it was originally mentioned but they took just 3 hours out of 40 hours of footage and interviews filmed. Much like the what is it, 100 hours of pumping iron footage that's sat on the shelf.

Given that 1980 MrO has been the greatest comeback in bodybuilding history, and there was an entire episode dedicated to Arnold as a bodybuilder in the Netflix documentary, I couldn’t help thinking it was strange that Arnold totally ignored it.  Specially with the rumors of him destroying/hiding footage and pictures of that contest only growing stronger. 

I wouldn’t go as far as saying It makes no difference to include it on the documentary , bodybuilding is boring as it is , Arnold should own that shit.  And say : “I did in 6 months what the rest of bodybuilders do in a full year came back and won it “ and live it at that. 

Was he friends with the judges? YES! Did the Weiders blocked Mentzer ? YES ! Was Arnold booed in Sydney? YES ! Did 13 competitors feel robbed ? YES  did he almost get his ass handed ? YES !


Arnold is keeping that can of warms closed. … that’s for sure.

The director/editors seem to have just made a story, the familiar one we all know.  I mean i learnt nothing new from that documentary but people i know who've watched it who don't follow him said it was really good and insigjtful.

Good point , however I've been doing a deep/ research on this 1980 controversy ....

For instance: The book Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life out of 656 pages ! in just one page he mentions briefly 1980 Mr.O with a lame picture hugging Joe Gold at the gym and another walking down the streets of Santa Monica with GF Maria and BFF Franco lol . in reality he treated everyone like shit in Sydney .

He has mentioned in his so called Arnold seminars that he was 4th at pre judging and he started posing until he got rid of the extra water and won .

There's also a video on Youtube where he tells kai Green that after 1980 pre judging Bill pearl told him he was third ! behind Dickerson and Boyer .... so he started posing non stop prior the evening show and ended up winning the whole thing lol .


I don't know, like someone said, as he got older he rather chooses to be open about his Olympias victories beating Zane and Oliva specially when he pushes his image to mainstream audiences .

THE WIZARD OF OZ
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s win at the 1980 Mr. Olympia staged in the glamorous environs of the Sydney Opera House in Australia raised a storm of controversy that still reverberates today. Here’s an in depth look at the event.

By Peter McGough

THE FIGHT
It was mid-afternoon on Friday October 3, 1980 and Arnold Schwarzenegger, ensconced in his suite at the Sydney Hilton Hotel, was transfixed by the drama being played out on the TV screen in front of him. The live images were those of Larry Holmes pummeling an over-the-hill and spent Muhammad Ali in their world title fight in Las Vegas. (In Vegas it was 9.00pm Thursday October 2, which meant that given the separation of 18 time zones it was 3.00pm Friday October 3 in Sydney.)

Ali – bereft of his long-gone float like a butterfly skills – took a terrible shellacking before his trainer Angelo Dundee called the fight off at the end of the 11th round. It was a pitiful sight for all observers (even Holmes seemed reluctant to hit Ali as the fight approached its end), as it was clear a great champion had gone to the well once too many times. Ali’s demise in the desert heat must have rung symbolic warning bells for Schwarzenegger. After all wasn’t he known as the Muhammad Ali of bodybuilding, wasn’t he like the Louisville native, his sport’s most charismatic and famous champion? And now hadn’t he seen Ali’s legend along with his body take an awful beating? Hadn’t he seen an icon humiliated and rendered mortal to an adoring public?

The next day Schwarzenegger, at age 33, was due to compete for the Mr. Olympia title five years after taking his sixth victory at the sport’s most prestigious contest. He was set to make a sensational comeback but 24 hours prior to the event, very few people knew of his plan. Mindful of the carnage he had seen beamed from Vegas, he still had time to pull out; still had time to avert an Ali like collapse of a golden career. But with the self-belief that had dictated his career the future Governor of California decided that the show must go on and in many ways what was to happen over the next 36 hours was indeed a show: Perhaps the greatest ever rendition of The Arnold Schwarzenegger Show.

ARNOLD, FRANK & SYDNEY
Eight weeks prior to the 1980 Mr. Olympia contest, after three years of typical Hollywood “tell your peeps to call my peeps” negotiations, production for the movie Conan The Barbarian, with Arnold in the lead role, had been given the green light. Shooting would begin in late October of that year and the muscular demands of the role compelled Arnold to launch into an intensive workout blitz at World’s Gym, Venice with the aim of returning his then streamlined dimensions toward a semblance of his previous Olympia winning physique.

With muscle memory kicking in, allied with Arnold’s ferocious commitment to grow, word soon spread around the village that is bodybuilding that Arnold’s sudden gym activity meant he was Olympia bound. When asked, he scoffed at such suggestions, affirming that each rep was in pursuit of a Conan type physique while at the same time stating he would be at the Olympia, but only in the role of doing color commentary for CBS who had covered the event in recent years.

It was early August 1980 when Frank Zane having just finished a workout thought to himself, “Oh shit! Another eight weeks of this.” The then 38 year old had won the previous three Mr. Olympias and in doing so launched the Zane Era in which he symbolized a classical look that attracted praise from the mainstream and bodybuilding’s core audience alike. Even today Zane’s physique is Exhibit A for lobbyists calling for a return to aesthetic and healthy bodybuilding. 

That fateful August afternoon he went to the pool at his Palm Springs home for his daily tan. He recalls what happened next: “I sat in this lightweight chair by the pool and as I did it slid on the wet Astroturf by the side and I fell onto the lip of the pool which hit me right between the legs and smashed my bulbous urethra. Blood was gushing from my penis. I was rushed to hospital and was in for four days with a catheter attachment … it was horrible.” It was also, for a short time, a life-threatening situation.

A few days after leaving hospital the bleeding started again and more treatment was required. By the time his condition stabilized two weeks had passed and Zane had lost 15 pounds of muscle. The scuttlebutt around Venice was, forget a fourth title, the odds are he wouldn’t even be able to compete in Sydney. Contemplating what to do Zane did what most of the top guys of that period did – he consulted with Arnold.   

He explains why: “Since his competitive retirement Arnold was the go-to guy before contests. Everyone went to him for advice. They’d do their posing routine and he’d point out every little thing that was wrong. I called him and he said, ‘Yeah, the word is out at Gold’s that you took so many steroids your dick started to bleed.’ I asked him what he thought I should do. He told me, ‘You should go to Australia and defend your title.’”

Arnold’s “advices” sort of confirmed what the triple Mr. O had been thinking: He had the tickets, he had six weeks left to whip myself in shape, why not?

In that same conversation Zane asked Arnold if he was entering the Mr. Olympia. Back came Arnold’s standard Getting in shape for Conan/CBS commentary answer. At the time the questioner had no reason to doubt what the man he considered a friend told him.

Whatever Arnold’s thought process was at the time, one can speculate that it may have crossed his mind that a sub par Frank Zane showing up in Sydney would be to the advantage of the comeback aspirant. He may have mused that once he (Arnold) stepped onstage he would be the focus of attention, but that would be followed closely by how he compared to the defending champ Zane; who had defined the post-Schwarzenegger era.  That’s the way it works: the man who wears the crown is the target. That’s who the judges compare everyone else to. Those who had seen Zane at six weeks out were amazed at the shape he valiantly attained by contest time. But at 180 or so pounds, ten pounds lighter than his 1979 form, he was not the force he would have been at his best. Zane’s accident was really strike one for Arnold.

SECONDS OUT: DING! DING!
The fifteen official entrants scheduled to contest the 1980 Mr. Olympia showdown duly arrived in Sydney a few days before October 4. They were still unaware that there would be a 16th contender entering at the 11th hour.

Boyer Coe, who was destined for fourth place, first heard about Arnold’s participation on the morning of the contest. Bill Pearl (who withdrew from being head judge) called him in his hotel room and said, “I just want to let you know that Arnold is gonna enter the contest.” Pearl also added that Arnold wanted the competition to be run under the format of two classes: under 200 pounds and over 200 pounds, with the two class winners posing off for the title. The contest had been conducted along those lines from 1974 through 1979. But after the ’79 Olympia it was decided to go back to the open class as the situation could occur where the second placed guy in the lighter class may be better than the winner of the heavy class and/or vice-versa.

Only when Arnold – complete with gym bag -- showed up at the competitors meeting shortly before Saturday afternoon’s prejudging did the rest of the field know he was in. 
Arnold’s immediately called for a return to having two classes in the contest. It transpired that Arnold was the only one in favor of maintaining the two-class system. To cut to the chase Coe addressed the meeting as follows: “Fifteen of us want it one way, Arnold’s the only guy wants it another way. Why not let Arnold explain his reasoning.”

Arnold snapped back, “Boyer why don’t you act like a man.”

Before Coe could respond Mike Mentzer jumped into the fray. This is how Mentzer recalled what happened next. “I interjected and asked Arnold why he was so reluctant to see the open class introduced. For some reason, that question pissed him off and he barked at me, ‘Mike Mentzer, we all know Zane beat you last year because you have a big stomach!’

"I was seated 20 feet away from Arnold, who was standing holding court, and I perhaps allowed that comment to irritate me too much, as on impulse, I bolted toward him. As I approached him, I decided I wouldn't hit him.” At that flashpoint moment someone stepped in between the two and defused the issue. Coe recalls that the peacemaker was Bill Pearl; others cite Joe or Ben Weider. Whatever, at that juncture Arnold withdrew his plea for two weight classes and some sort of peace was restored.
 
So why was Arnold so strongly opposed to an open class? Some say he saw the greater threats to him coming from under 200 pounders like Dickerson and Zane and felt he would have a better chance standing against only one of them at the end when his size and height would be thrown more advantageously into sharp relief. That may be the case but what can’t escape scrutiny is the theory that he just wanted to show up at the meeting and press more buttons than an overworked elevator operator and if the other guys had been in favor of two classes then maybe he would have argued for one class. Perhaps the whole point of creating the altercation was to deflect his rivals from the intense inner mental concentration that is de rigueur for bodybuilders in the hours before competition. As it was his rivals perhaps left the meeting with dark thoughts of Arnold, and not fully focused on their own preparations. Mission accomplished?

ZERO HOUR
As the competitors changed backstage Boer Coe remembers his first sight of the 1980 model of Schwarzenegger. “He looked very light, particularly in the legs and was lacking the thickness we’d come to expect.” As for Coe himself, the then 34 year old was, at 208 pounds, to many observers in the shape of his life.

When Zane eventually saw a betrunked Schwarzenegger he thought the former champ would be, “Sixth. He looked puffy early on, like he was holding water. Then he sweat so much during the prejudging that he did look better by the night show. But he still wasn’t Arnold. It’s like you’re out of it for five years and you train eight weeks …. C’mon?”

Estimates of what the late entrant weighed varied between 217 and 225 pounds. In winning the 1975 Olympia Arnold had been around 230 pounds. In 1974, which many cite as Arnold’s best year, he was 240 pounds. His bodyweight in 1975 was light for him as earlier in the year he had to reduce his physique to appear in the movie Stay Hungry, and then in three months put size back on to compete at that year’s Olympia in South Africa. In fact the only reason he did compete in ’75 was because producer George Butler made the contest the backdrop for Pumping Iron.

Arnold’s performance during the contest was unorthodox to say the least. Call it arrogance, call it unsporting, but maybe finally call it generalship. When asked to hit certain compulsories – side triceps for instance – he would instead do one of his trademark poses: like front double biceps, side chest, single arm biceps, and three-quarter back shots. Despite the streamlining elsewhere he was still impressive in those shots and, true to the template of his life, played to his strengths and ignored his weaknesses.

Bodybuilding's showcase muscles are the biceps and chest. Arnold had arguably the best biceps and chest the sport has seen, even to this day. Coincidence? Gimme a break! Arnold has street and gym smarts. His bodybuilding master plan was uncomplicated. Go for the jugular with the best showcase muscles around; exploit your strengths, ignore weaknesses, let the charisma ooze out. Never change a winning formula; modify, improve, but don't abandon. Never, ever, give any indication other than that the rest of the guys are only there for second place. Inspired by the opulent surroundings of the Sydney Opera House he executed his lifelong strategy and parlayed those show-stopping biceps and pecs into a winning position. How else to explain how a less than stellar Arnold returned to the Olympia in 1980 to take the most controversial win in the contest's history? What critics discount is the all-enveloping Arnold "I'm first, who cares who's second?" aura that just becomes irresistible.

As George Butler aptly phrased it: “If you want to beat Muhammad Ali on points, you’ve got to beat him by ten points. Likewise if you want to beat Arnold Schwarzenegger in the grandeur of the Sydney Opera House, you have got to beat him by a distance. You can't just be a little better.”

History records that Arnold Schwarzenegger won his seventh Mr. Olympia title on October 4, 1980 and also that for just about the first time in his career he was booed. Didn’t matter to Arnold, all that mattered was that he won. End of story. Bodybuilding contests, box-office returns, elections for state Governor – all that history remembers is the winner. Arnold didn’t really fixate on who was best, what was of paramount importance to him was who was “Number One” or as his iconic t-shirt shrieked “Numero Uno.”

In being called third, Zane was, “Really depressed. There’s a story that I left the stage and smashed my trophy. But what really happened is that I set the trophy down backstage – I really didn’t want it – and it sort of just fell over and the top came off. I left the hall went back to the hotel, drank a bottle of wine and fell asleep.”

In assessing his 1980 physique Zane says, “The main thing is, I think I got compared to the way I looked the year before. In Sydney I was ripped: Showing maybe even more muscle but I was smaller than ‘ 79. I felt that in 1980 I was still in really good shape, but not as good as ’79 when I was outstanding. And everyone knew what I had been through and my face, which was like a death mask, showed it. All that stress … my God, I almost died and then eight weeks later I was competing. Who would do that except a fool? In retrospect the best thing I could have done was not compete in 1980 and then come back in 1981.”

WHY DID HE DO IT?
In reflecting on the 1980 Olympia one has to ask, why did Arnold enter? He knew he couldn’t be at his all-time peak, and was risking defeat and a denting of his reputation.  Zane feels he has at least part of the answer: “I think one of the reasons is he wanted to get even with me for something I said at the previous year’s Olympia. Now, let me tell you, Arnold has helped me a lot, both before 1980 and since. In 1979 he was really helpful to me. He was doing CBS commentary for the ’79 Olympia and he really built me up with his on-air comments. As I came offstage with my third Sandow I was feeling really good and maybe a little cocky.  As Arnold came forward to interview me, He asked, ‘Frank, how does it feel to win Mr. Olympia for the third time?’ And, I answered, ‘Arnold it feels even better than when I beat you for [the 1968] Mr. Universe.’ I know he hated me saying that. It really bugged him and I think to get back at me for that remark was part of his motivation to enter the 1980 Mr. Olympia.”

Zane may not be far off the mark. In a February 2006 interview the Governor said the following: “Why did I do the comeback? It was a combination of things. The first and most important thing is that I was training for the Conan movie. At the same time I thought it was a good idea to compete because these guys had been saying in interviews that today’s bodybuilders are much better than when Schwarzenegger was around and I think we could all beat him now. That motivated me to jump in. [Ed’s note: Zane’s previously quoted comment and Mike Mentzer’s criticizing Arnold’s volume approach to training seemed to be the main targets for what the Governor said.]

In the same interview he went on to say,  “Was it the right decision? I couldn’t tell you that today. It might have been the wrong motivation. The fact of the matter was I was an established bodybuilding champion who had crossed over into the entertainment field. And now I’ve been making money from movies so [others thought] why would I take the title away from the guys?

“I always had a big ego and that also came into play. So I competed, and I barely won -- I barely won. It was a hair-raising experience. I remember Bill Pearl came to me [after the prejudging] and said I was in third. I said to myself there is a chance to make up the deficit in the evening pose-off. I remember I did everything I could, no matter what it took to pose and pose and pose and to look as comfortable as possible and to be as good as possible in the evening to make up those two points and actually win.”

Responding to Pearl’s summation Arnold berated himself: “I immediately accused myself of being a major idiot. ‘Loser Arnold. You idiot: You ‘re going to lose this. Didn’t get your act together.’ [It was] self-punishment right away. Which I’m always very good in doing – beating up on myself. Then I immediately snapped into gear and said, ‘Now I have just to do everything I can do to pull this off – I have one more chance in the evening show.’ And I was very fortunate that I pulled it off and that I lost enough fluid. In the afternoon I had so much fluid and then with all this posing [I lost the fluid] I got really ripped. So by the time the evening came around I was in better shape than the afternoon and won.”

THE BOTTOM LINE
Leaving Sydney Zane was still a little perplexed as to why Arnold – whom he considered a friend – hadn’t told him he was making a comeback when he (Zane) had asked him point-blank eight weeks before the contest. He got his answer two months after the event when he and Arnold had breakfast at The Rose Café in Venice.

Zane recalls that meeting. “We got around to talking about why he didn’t tell me he was competing. The Carter vs. Reagan election had just taken place and Arnold said, “If prior to the election Carter had gone to Reagan and told him exactly how he planned to win the election, Reagan would have been a fool not to take advantage of that knowledge and use it for his benefit.’” Zane pauses before continuing, “Arnold then came up with a classic line as he said, ‘Frank, competition is about strategy; it’s not about friendship.’ That nailed it. And I got it. He was right – you can’t confuse the two.”

Decades removed from events how does Hall-of-Famer Frank Zane look back now at what transpired at the 1980 Mr. Olympia contest. “First of all I would like everyone to know that Arnold has helped me a lot. He is a friend in my book so it all balances out. Basically the lesson learned is, if you are smart, never compete against Arnold, because you won’t win – you just won’t win.”

Great editing job, who did this ? a Mentzer/Getbigger ?

Just in this thread alone you can find interviews/audio of Padilla saying Arnold won  despite not being 100 %

Tinerino had a great point of why this is the most controversial Olympia

Never mind Arnolds shape; Any pro bodybuilder would have felt disrespected the way Arnold entered the show, treated fellow competitors and didn't listen to the judges while posing .


I still think Arnold was the best on stage though
but ,   can you name a MrOlympia winner that regrets winning a particular sandow ?

In his Netflix Bio series , Arnold did not mention the 1980 Olympia , So basically mainstream audiences think he was done with bodybuilding after winning O 1975 in Africa ,  that tells you right there something is off. like he wants to erase that chapter of his life, At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Arnold believes he didn't compete in Australia 1980.lol




WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHH  Oct.4th 1980

Mainstream audiences don't even know the Olympia exists.

THE WIZARD OF OZ
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s win at the 1980 Mr. Olympia staged in the glamorous environs of the Sydney Opera House in Australia raised a storm of controversy that still reverberates today. Here’s an in depth look at the event.

By Peter McGough

THE FIGHT
It was mid-afternoon on Friday October 3, 1980 and Arnold Schwarzenegger, ensconced in his suite at the Sydney Hilton Hotel, was transfixed by the drama being played out on the TV screen in front of him. The live images were those of Larry Holmes pummeling an over-the-hill and spent Muhammad Ali in their world title fight in Las Vegas. (In Vegas it was 9.00pm Thursday October 2, which meant that given the separation of 18 time zones it was 3.00pm Friday October 3 in Sydney.)

Ali – bereft of his long-gone float like a butterfly skills – took a terrible shellacking before his trainer Angelo Dundee called the fight off at the end of the 11th round. It was a pitiful sight for all observers (even Holmes seemed reluctant to hit Ali as the fight approached its end), as it was clear a great champion had gone to the well once too many times. Ali’s demise in the desert heat must have rung symbolic warning bells for Schwarzenegger. After all wasn’t he known as the Muhammad Ali of bodybuilding, wasn’t he like the Louisville native, his sport’s most charismatic and famous champion? And now hadn’t he seen Ali’s legend along with his body take an awful beating? Hadn’t he seen an icon humiliated and rendered mortal to an adoring public?

The next day Schwarzenegger, at age 33, was due to compete for the Mr. Olympia title five years after taking his sixth victory at the sport’s most prestigious contest. He was set to make a sensational comeback but 24 hours prior to the event, very few people knew of his plan. Mindful of the carnage he had seen beamed from Vegas, he still had time to pull out; still had time to avert an Ali like collapse of a golden career. But with the self-belief that had dictated his career the future Governor of California decided that the show must go on and in many ways what was to happen over the next 36 hours was indeed a show: Perhaps the greatest ever rendition of The Arnold Schwarzenegger Show.

ARNOLD, FRANK & SYDNEY
Eight weeks prior to the 1980 Mr. Olympia contest, after three years of typical Hollywood “tell your peeps to call my peeps” negotiations, production for the movie Conan The Barbarian, with Arnold in the lead role, had been given the green light. Shooting would begin in late October of that year and the muscular demands of the role compelled Arnold to launch into an intensive workout blitz at World’s Gym, Venice with the aim of returning his then streamlined dimensions toward a semblance of his previous Olympia winning physique.

With muscle memory kicking in, allied with Arnold’s ferocious commitment to grow, word soon spread around the village that is bodybuilding that Arnold’s sudden gym activity meant he was Olympia bound. When asked, he scoffed at such suggestions, affirming that each rep was in pursuit of a Conan type physique while at the same time stating he would be at the Olympia, but only in the role of doing color commentary for CBS who had covered the event in recent years.

It was early August 1980 when Frank Zane having just finished a workout thought to himself, “Oh shit! Another eight weeks of this.” The then 38 year old had won the previous three Mr. Olympias and in doing so launched the Zane Era in which he symbolized a classical look that attracted praise from the mainstream and bodybuilding’s core audience alike. Even today Zane’s physique is Exhibit A for lobbyists calling for a return to aesthetic and healthy bodybuilding. 

That fateful August afternoon he went to the pool at his Palm Springs home for his daily tan. He recalls what happened next: “I sat in this lightweight chair by the pool and as I did it slid on the wet Astroturf by the side and I fell onto the lip of the pool which hit me right between the legs and smashed my bulbous urethra. Blood was gushing from my penis. I was rushed to hospital and was in for four days with a catheter attachment … it was horrible.” It was also, for a short time, a life-threatening situation.

A few days after leaving hospital the bleeding started again and more treatment was required. By the time his condition stabilized two weeks had passed and Zane had lost 15 pounds of muscle. The scuttlebutt around Venice was, forget a fourth title, the odds are he wouldn’t even be able to compete in Sydney. Contemplating what to do Zane did what most of the top guys of that period did – he consulted with Arnold.   

He explains why: “Since his competitive retirement Arnold was the go-to guy before contests. Everyone went to him for advice. They’d do their posing routine and he’d point out every little thing that was wrong. I called him and he said, ‘Yeah, the word is out at Gold’s that you took so many steroids your dick started to bleed.’ I asked him what he thought I should do. He told me, ‘You should go to Australia and defend your title.’”

Arnold’s “advices” sort of confirmed what the triple Mr. O had been thinking: He had the tickets, he had six weeks left to whip myself in shape, why not?

In that same conversation Zane asked Arnold if he was entering the Mr. Olympia. Back came Arnold’s standard Getting in shape for Conan/CBS commentary answer. At the time the questioner had no reason to doubt what the man he considered a friend told him.

Whatever Arnold’s thought process was at the time, one can speculate that it may have crossed his mind that a sub par Frank Zane showing up in Sydney would be to the advantage of the comeback aspirant. He may have mused that once he (Arnold) stepped onstage he would be the focus of attention, but that would be followed closely by how he compared to the defending champ Zane; who had defined the post-Schwarzenegger era.  That’s the way it works: the man who wears the crown is the target. That’s who the judges compare everyone else to. Those who had seen Zane at six weeks out were amazed at the shape he valiantly attained by contest time. But at 180 or so pounds, ten pounds lighter than his 1979 form, he was not the force he would have been at his best. Zane’s accident was really strike one for Arnold.

SECONDS OUT: DING! DING!
The fifteen official entrants scheduled to contest the 1980 Mr. Olympia showdown duly arrived in Sydney a few days before October 4. They were still unaware that there would be a 16th contender entering at the 11th hour.

Boyer Coe, who was destined for fourth place, first heard about Arnold’s participation on the morning of the contest. Bill Pearl (who withdrew from being head judge) called him in his hotel room and said, “I just want to let you know that Arnold is gonna enter the contest.” Pearl also added that Arnold wanted the competition to be run under the format of two classes: under 200 pounds and over 200 pounds, with the two class winners posing off for the title. The contest had been conducted along those lines from 1974 through 1979. But after the ’79 Olympia it was decided to go back to the open class as the situation could occur where the second placed guy in the lighter class may be better than the winner of the heavy class and/or vice-versa.

Only when Arnold – complete with gym bag -- showed up at the competitors meeting shortly before Saturday afternoon’s prejudging did the rest of the field know he was in. 
Arnold’s immediately called for a return to having two classes in the contest. It transpired that Arnold was the only one in favor of maintaining the two-class system. To cut to the chase Coe addressed the meeting as follows: “Fifteen of us want it one way, Arnold’s the only guy wants it another way. Why not let Arnold explain his reasoning.”

Arnold snapped back, “Boyer why don’t you act like a man.”

History records that Arnold Schwarzenegger won his seventh Mr. Olympia title on October 4, 1980 and also that for just about the first time in his career he was booed. Didn’t matter to Arnold, all that mattered was that he won. End of story. Bodybuilding contests, box-office returns, elections for state Governor – all that history remembers is the winner. Arnold didn’t really fixate on who was best, what was of paramount importance to him was who was “Number One” or as his iconic t-shirt shrieked “Numero Uno.”

WHY DID HE DO IT?
In reflecting on the 1980 Olympia one has to ask, why did Arnold enter? He knew he couldn’t be at his all-time peak, and was risking defeat and a denting of his reputation.  Zane feels he has at least part of the answer: “I think one of the reasons is he wanted to get even with me for something I said at the previous year’s Olympia. Now, let me tell you, Arnold has helped me a lot, both before 1980 and since. In 1979 he was really helpful to me.

At the same time I thought it was a good idea to compete because these guys had been saying in interviews that today’s bodybuilders are much better than when Schwarzenegger was around and I think we could all beat him now.

Funny how Zane and Coe were happy enough to take home their runner up checks. If they had any real integrity they would've gave back both their trophies and the money.

In his Netflix Bio series , Arnold did not mention the 1980 Olympia , So basically mainstream audiences think he was done with bodybuilding after winning O 1975 in Africa ,  that tells you right there something is off. like he wants to erase that chapter of his life, At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Arnold believes he didn't compete in Australia 1980.lol




WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHH  Oct.4th 1980


John Little did the video so I wouldn't trust anything that comes out of that penicil neck's mouth. He's so biased towards methzer it's like they were once lovers.

you're missing the point, taking the conversation out of this thread makes absolutely no sense...

The average Joe or fitness influencer has no F clue what took place that dark Oct 4th 1980 in Sydney Australia

This is a Tread for elite exclusive old timers Getbiggers in the know .....



Just ask yourself , Why the controversy 43 damn years later?

Most witnesses /big names on the sport" feel they have more to lose saying publicly that the whole 1980 Olympia was a fraud ...... Since Arnold has been above the industry and is pretty much the face of BB, a little cult 'sport" where there's basically no money to make even with Arnold as a friend' ......  again I feel he was the deserving champ.


However, The obvious hermeticism that Arnold has on this subject only feeds on the rumors....


I just pray Generation iron doesn't end up making a garbage "movie:" about it and ruin the fucking investigation for all of us .  lol

There is no controversy. It's pretty simple. Arnold may not have been the Arnold from the 70's but he didn't have to be. There was no Sergio. No Ferrigno. No Nubret. Arnold was up against some b-listers bodybuilders. He was better then everyone else that day. He didn't "destroy" them like usual but he did beat them and that's people's problem. They expected him to look like he used to. Others were good but still not good enough. You could even see it their eyes during the show. Look at the pics. They are looking at him like "heck he wins" they were admiring him. Plus it's not just about him winning it's the way the others reacted that kept the so called controversy going. Bunch of loser cry babies . methzer being the biggest of them all. He thought way too much of himself. He even said " bodybuilding just lost its best spokesman" (when he said he was done putting his body through this hell for a bad decision).

And here's the real problem with Arnold winning.  He didn’t look like Arnold. Period. We expected him to come in looking like he always did but he didn't. He didn't have to though as he was still better than everyone else but he didn’t look like "Arnold". So some people say he shouldn't of won.  People like Zane etc always look good standing by themselves but when compared to a real bodybuilder like Arnold they don't cut it. Now Arnold wasn't superior in every pose but he was in enough to win. 

People liked methzer because they are lazy and thought his way of training would work for them (in reality he used volume just like everyone else) and Zane they liked because he had a very small build like a swimmer, easily attainable for almost anyone. By himself Zane did look good but next to Arnold? Forget about it. And Dickerson?  He shouldn't of even been on stage.  methzer went nuts after this his world crashed around him as the 1980 contest finished him off and deservedly so.

So yeah, Arnold won. There was no fix. Arnold was simply the best out of a bad line up.

I don't understand the "controversy."

Dickerson had ugly, small biceps and a droopy chest.  He looked good in the back double biceps and his legs were sliced; otherwise, I was amazed he made the top two.

Frank looked okay but was way down in size.  Boyer's lack of ab separation and his weird aesthetics cost him.

Mike was ripped but flat.  RMJ will attribute that to Mike's HIT training that he supposedly didn't follow :/ (I say forget about John Little's Mentzer worshipping and take it up with Larry Pollock.  He's the guy who said Mike "flipped," right?  So why believe him about one thing but not the other?)

Walker was huge but a bit smooth, complete with bitch tits.

Arnold was Arnold.  Tall, huge showy body parts and he dried out as the show went on.  The judges should have been less forgiving of his antics -- No, Arnold!  We called for side triceps, NOT a mantis pose!  Do it right! -- but he was still the best that day.

That's right. methzer never did hit. John Terilli had trained with methzer in 1980 and saw him do 25 sets for the back alone. Fact is, methzer just didnt have it. He thought he was going to beat Arnold...lol. He couldn't even beat Zane so what chance did he have against Arnold? None. It was never going to happen for old meth head.

A little bit of The Controversy started the minute Bill Pearl learned that Arnold was entering the show ,
He wanted to have a quick meeting to let the Competitors, he wasn't going to be part of the charade that was in store ,
However, he was convinced by Arnold and Ben to take the job as CBS commentator instead so he could have national exposure , he agreed
And ended up saying he was pulling out from judging panel because he was Dickerson's coach and didn't want to have a conflict" there.
Some of the guys (Tinerino and Boyer) were really pissed because they knew Pearl had no problem judging and placing Dickerson first place months prior at the Grand Prix which Dickerson won . lol

When the crew got back from Sydney , and the footage disappeared ... Thats when Mr Pearl felt they were playing with his name and time (weiders and Arnie) so from then on he  had no problem saying that Dickerson Boyer and Mentzer were better than Arnold and Arnold was booed by entire opera house .

So does our own The Scott, who personally saw the Mentzers and Viator training in a HIT style in the late seventies.

I'm not sure why you're so wrapped around the axle when it comes to HIT.  Even Fred Hatfield admits that it works.  Is it necessarily better than, say, how Padilla trained?  Absolutely NOT.  But it helped me win my first show as a teenager (natty), and it didn't seem to hurt Larry's contest resume.

We've been down this road too many times, mate, and I can't help but to think we are speaking at cross-purposes sometimes.  Let me ask you something:  how do you define HIT? 

I'm being earnest here, in an effort to understand one another.  Consider it an olive branch.

We've been down this road too many times, mate, and I can't help but to think we are speaking at cross-purposes sometimes.  Let me ask you something:  how do you define HIT? 

I'm being earnest here, in an effort to understand one another.  Consider it an olive branch.

Fred Hatfield was very critical on hit actually.
* decreasing rest between reps
* decreasing rest between sets
* increasing the number of exercises per body part
* increasing the total number of exercises or body parts trained at one session
* increasing the number of training sessions per day
* increasing the speed of movement
* increasing the amount of work done at the anaerobic threshold (maximum pain
tolerance)
* increasing the amount of eccentric work your muscles are required to perform.
Perhaps most importantly, going to failure is NOT a prerequisite to adaptation!

The SAID Principle is violated by the first commandment of HIT. Their idea is to go to failure all the time, but certain "specific" training objectives mitigate against it (e.g., speed training). And, the GAS Principle, which states that there must be a period of low intensity training or complete rest following periods of high intensity training, is violated. These guys go to failure all the time!

2. Attempt To Increase The Resistance Used Or The Repetitions Performed Every Workout.
"...every time you work out you should attempt to increase either the weight you use or the repetitions you perform in relation to your previous workout. This can be viewed as a "double progressive" technique (resistance and repetitions). Challenging your muscles in this manner will force them to adapt to the imposed demands (or stress)."
The SAID Principle is violated. Sometimes, lighter weights done rapidly is required. And sometimes heavier weights done for 3 reps is required. (If your training requires that you go to failure with a weight that's so heavy you can only do three reps, you are BEGGING for a MAJOR injury if that takes you to failure!) The GAS Principle is also violated. Alternating periods of high versus low intensity is a better way to go. If you wait until total recovery is accomplished in any given muscle, atrophy place.

3. Perform 1 To 3 Sets Of Each Exercise.
"...numerous research studies -- which I once again am probably viewed as dreaming up--have shown that there are no significant differences when performing either one, two or three sets of an exercise..."
Yep! You're dreaming pal! Dr. Richard Berger (my mentor during my doctoral studies at Temple) years ago showed that there IS a significant improvement in gains with three sets as opposed to one. Other studies have shown the same results. Nowadays, many athletes (bodybuilders included) do as many as 10 or more sets. Even Arthur Jones --the original HIT man --showed that people with white, fast-twitch muscles require fewer reps, sets and workouts per week than people with predominantly red, slow-twitch muscles.
Apparently, all HIT men are white muscle fiber guys? I think not! So, while none of the seven laws are violated here, some (especially the overload principle and the SAID principle) are not being applied to their maximum potential.

4. Reach Concentric Muscular Failure Within A Prescribed Number Of Repetitions.
"Repetition ranges differ from body part to body part and from coach to coach. In the course of training hundreds of collegiate athletes over the past eleven years, these are the ranges I usually assign: 15 to 20 (hip exercises), 10 to 15 (leg exercises) and 6 to 12 (upper body exercises). Other HIT strength coaches are pretty much in that neighborhood, with a few electing slightly lower ranges but not less than six."
Woah! You guys should be blushing on this one! The SAID principle as well as the principle of individual differences are quite specific in recognizing that not everyone is alike. Not everyone responds in the same way to any given rep/set scheme. Look again at my response to Commandment Three.

5. Perform Each Repetition With Proper Technique.
"A quality rep is performed by raising and lowering the weight in a deliberate, controlled manner. Lifting a weight in a rapid, explosive fashion is ill-advised for two reasons: (1) it exposes your muscles, joint structures and connective tissue to potentially dangerous forces which magnify the likelihood of an injury while strength training and (2) it introduces momentum into the movement which makes the exercise less productive and less efficient. Lifting a weight in about 1 to 2 seconds will guarantee that you're exercising in a safe, efficient manner. It should take about 3 to 4 seconds to lower the weight back to the starting/stretched position.
First, I grow weary of the HIT business of being "safe." Where in the book does it say that going slow and deliberate with a heavy weight is safer? I think otherwise. What about predisposing an athlete to greater harm on the playing field as a result of this sort of nonsensical preparatory training?
And, certainly, these slow, deliberate movements are not as effective as other methods in many instances. SOME reps are well performed in the manner described above. However, this commandment clearly disregards the importance of cheating movements, explosive lifting (e.g., the Olympic lifts), and many other techniques of lifting.
Further, slow, deliberate movements are nowhere NEAR as effective for forcing an adaptive response in connective tissues as are more explosive (and yes, often "ballistic") movements. So much for their claim to "safety!" Deinhibition of the Golgi tendon organ's protective feedback loop can be moved back far more effectively with controlled ballistic movements than with slow, deliberate movements. Clearly, this commandment is in violation of the Overcompensation, Specificity and SAID principles.

6. Strength Train For No More Than One Hour Per Workout.
"If you are training with a high level of intensity--and you should--you literally cannot exercise for a long period of time. ...Training with a minimal amount of recovery time between exercises will elicit a metabolic conditioning effect that cannot be approached by traditional multiple set programs. Don't ask me why cause I've been makin' all this stuff up as I go along."
Ol' Jedi Brzycki continues to put his sandalled foot on top of his golden tongue. Here, I think (one can't really tell) he's claiming that doing one set of squats, then one set of benches, then one set of pulldowns, then one set of curls, and one set of 3, 4, 5 or so additional exercises, and you're outta the gym. C'mon!
Clearly, this commandment is in violation of the Overcompensation, Specificity and SAID principles. Re-read my response to Commandment Three.
People are DIFFERENT!

7. Emphasize The Major Muscle Groups.
"The focal point for most of your exercises should be your major muscle groups (i.e. your hips, legs and upper torso)."
Oh? Have we lost sight of training weaknesses first? Bodybuilders know this instinctively. Most athletes do as well. Clearly, this commandment is in violation of the Specificity and SAID principles.

8. Whenever Possible, Work Your Muscles From Largest To Smallest.
"Exercise your hips first, then go to your legs (hams, quads and calves or dorsi flexors), upper torso (chest, upper back and shoulders), arms (biceps, triceps and forearms), abs and finally your low back."
Duhhhhh! Am I missing something? In the Eighth Commandment, you told us NOT to focus on smaller muscles! In addition to violating one of your own commandments, this commandment is in violation of the Specificity and SAID principles.

9. Strength Train 2 To 3 Times Per Week On Nonconsecutive Days.
"...a period of about 48 to 72 hours is necessary for muscle tissue to recover sufficiently from a strength workout. A period of at least 48 hours is also required to replenish your depleted carbohydrate stores.
...Performing any more than three sessions a week can gradually become counterproductive due to a catabolic effect. This occurs when the demands you have placed on your muscles have exceeded you recovery ability. Recovery time is adequate if you continue making gains."
Sometimes 48-72 hours is sufficient, and sometimes it's not. Depending upon the muscle involved it may be less or it may be more.
Remember:
* Big muscles take longer to recover than smaller ones
* Fast twitch muscles (your "explosive" muscles) take longer to recover than slow twitch muscle fibers ("endurance" muscles);
* Guys recover faster than girls;
* You recover faster from slow movements than from fast movements;
* You recover faster from low intensity training than from high intensity training.
* The older you get, the longer it takes to recover

By carbohydrate stores, do you mean glycogen? Not 48 hours...something closer to 2 or 3 hours! I, and every athlete I've ever trained, often trained twice a day! The Russian athletes do, the Bulgarian weightlifters train 3-6 times a day! And, even if there were (as Bryzcki put it) a "catabolic" effect, wouldn't that call for a "periodized approach to training?
Grand daddy laws violated with this one are the SAID, GAS and Specificity Principles.

WHO SHOULD HAVE WON THE 1980 MR OLYMPIA CONTEST?



John Little has ran out of material and is regurgitating the old vids again. He had already covered  this topic in his older vids. The methzer fans in the comments of course claiming that methzer should've won...it was a fix...Arnold, Weider blah blah blah. Same old shit. Little trying desperately hard to rewrite history that methzer somehow won. The hit cult don't like the fact methzer could never win against a superior bodybuilder like Arnold. Even when Arnold was at 90% of his best he still bested methzer who was supposedly at his best (he wasn't as he had a deflated chest, fat ass, undeveloped back, deformed traps, narrow clavicles, small arms with biceps having no peak, small frame, protruding gut). No wonder he came 5th.

Despite the anti Arnold crap that's coming from the hit cult the fact remains Arnold won the 1980 olympia because he was the best that day and that is how it will remain. Doesn't matter how many dully vids Little comes up with trying..and failing..to prove otherwise Arnold was the winner. The hit cult can suck on that. 


 Funny how he never has vids of real evidence of methzer's methods working.

the highliight of interview

1980 Mr.O

Shawn " Ok Arnold legs were down .wide waist but you couldn't take your eyes off him the entire contest."

Jay "(annoying chicken voice)  "People say Arnold didn't deserve to win "

Shawn - Then who you think should have ?

Jay - (afraid to vent his own opinion)" Well ... Samir Banout says Mentzer was the best man that year "

Shawn - Mentzer? the guy finished 5th ...  Dickerson was the runner up ...funny how people keeps mentioning Mike Mentzer .

This is what Arnold should have said in his recent 3 episodes long documentary .
instead of making viewers believe his last contest was in AFRICA 75' LOL

Again, I think he was the best man in Sydney , although in this photo alone Dickeson looks perfect

WRONG!  They all knew they were going to lose. Arnold was a master poser. If someone hit a pose and Arnold was better in it he would hit the same pose to dwarf them ( example here with coe) and if someone hit a pose that Arnold thought he didn't look as good in he would then hit one of hid better poses to get the attention  on himself.  And of course it always worked.  In a post above someone said that "MOST people thought methead won".  Smh That is funny because  only methead and a few others ( methead fans) actually thought he won. Oh and of course anyone who didn't like Arnold.

Arnold Schwarzenegger won his seventh Mr. Olympia and officially retired from professional bodybuilding.
Unlike the 1975-1979 Mr. Olympia contests which had two weight divisions (above and below 200lbs), this contest had no weight divisions, returning to the 1965-1973 format where large and small bodybuilders competed directly against one another.
The loss and resulting controversy had a major impact on Mike Mentzer personally and professionally; it would be the last time he competed in professional bodybuilding, and he swore until the day he died that the event was rigged.
According to Chris Dickerson, "the promoter was a real low life, a bigot, who had a real dislike for me –partly on racial grounds and partly for my sexual orientation." Paul Graham even told another official that "Chris couldn't win because he was a fag."

WRONG? lol ...how so?   youre saying the same exact thing I said lol ....  You're only implying what you feel Arnold thought when hitting a dominating pose , its common knowledge that most competitors had Arnold out of top 6 (during the damn show) ..... Not saying I agree but quiet the opposite buddy , how wrong they were lol  .....   As for you throwing methead in it ? didnt even mentioned the guy ,,,,

 Wrong meant that no coe didn't hit the pose to compare his arm to Arnolds. Just the opposite. Coe hit a pose so Arnold hit his. And Wrong they ALL didn't think they were beating Arnold. Only one person did and that was Methead. I brought up Methead NOT because of your post. I even stated "in a post above" the person said EVERYONE thought MEATHEAD was the winner. NO not everyone did just Meth and his hit nuts and those who didnt like Arnold. So my bringing up methead had NOTHING to do with your post per se. Oh and gay dickerson was a typical black. He lost so it HAD to be racism. Smh. Ever notice how when they win they never say " I didn't deserve to win but I did win only BECAUSE I am black".  But the minute they lose its only racism ( or because they are gay or whatever) I don't see how dickerson EVER won anything.  Probably the worst Mr O ever!  ( from Coleman on to the present don't count because to me they all look like shit. Huge just for huge sack. No symmetry or proportion and they just get worse. )

Generally speaking,  that is a great point.

I have to assume that Chris was one of those people who looked better in person.  He had great legs, back, shoulders, triceps and forearms.  He was also able to pose in a way that made him look wider than he was. He was very dense too.

A lot of his contemporaries speak highly of him. But a few, like Danny Padilla and Roger Walker, have said that they always thought he was average. Almost everyone who knew him spoke highly of his character though.

Just saw the recent Legends of Bodybuilding podcast. Roy Callender and Bill Neylon said Franco disliked and dismissed Chris because he was a homosexual.  But Franco was the only one.

Ironically almost every one  ( next generation of Olympia competitors and champs )  say neither Mentzer nor Arnold should have won the 1980 . Well at some point Yates , Banout,Dickerson and Heath felt  Mentzer was better between the two. 

And to make matters more controversial neither  Arnie or Mentzer came came back to compete ever again, and Arnold bought (or stole) the raw footage so there you have it.  A chapter tough to close.

Was Cutler there at the 1980 olympia? No. He hasn't a clue.

Were you present?

methzer came 5th, not 2nd but 5th and for good reason. He looked like shit. He got placed behind 4 superior bodybuilders. There simply was no fix. It's a myth. Nothing more.

Mike was okay in 1980.  A bit flat and overdepleted, but to say he looked like shit just betrays your weird hard-on for "Methzer" (huh huh, so clever, since Mike admitted to using uppers).

Since you are so vocal about just how badly Mike sucks and you look better and know how to better train, why not throw up a few pics?

You called out one of our vets, Tim Wescott, who has a great contest record a mile long.  You posted something truly _nasty_ about Big Ro's father passing.

These men you're picking at are national level competitors.  Can you match them?

Ah!

I forgot something.

You say there was no fix in the placings in 1980?

Great -- but that cuts both ways.  No fix?  Then your pal Mentzer earned his tie for fourth with Coe, and ultimately, fifth.

I do agree that Arnold, for all his onstage antics, still won.  Dickersuckerson in second?  Probably not...good quads, good back and solid side tri, but ugly abs, the smallest arms in the show, droopy pecs...how they rated him so highly, I'll never know.  I can only reckon that Chris, as an openly queer, blew the right judges *shrug*

Unlike the rest of IFBB he was very articulated, intellectual and fluent.

Booing or not... the video does not lie.  Arnold (25lbs lighter than he was previously) was the best bodybuilder on that day.

Get over it.

Yes absolutely he never looked better that's what I think.

Summer Redstone, owner of National Amusements, which owns Paramount Global, which owns CBS, has the raw footage of the 1980 Mr. Olympia and keeps it under lock and key in a private chest in her boudoir.

She has watched it over 3,000 times and many weekends go by where she will retreat to her bedroom with a mustachioed man and nothing other than the reels, a projector, a double ended dildo and a box of amyl nitrite.

Going to take a minute to call Bill Pearl out on some bullshit....

He supposedly stepped down as a judge for the 80 O due to a conflict of interest as he was Dickersons trainer.

But c'mon he judged other shows with Dickerson.  And a conflict of interest doesn't apply to color commentary?

Arnold was too much of a bitch to even make eye contact with the Genius

This conflict has been the topic of debate and has grown in legend over the years... before this feud is settled it could take hundreds of years and cost thousands of lives.

What was the powder keg for such warfare?

Similar to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria kicking off world War I... The Arch Duke of Bodybuilding,  the Austrian Oak, told Mentzer that he had a big belly. This insult was the defacto assassination of Mentzer,  who never recovered and ultimately died (19 years later.)

This is a grievous matter of extreme importance. We may never peacefully resolve this aggression. Pro Mentzer rebels are assembling for a counter offensive as we speak.

When George Butler released the book Portrait of a bodybuilder was it 1990 ?
it was meant to be mainly pictures from 1980 Olympia both on and off stage...

There's anecdotes how Arnold only trashed Mentzer and asked Butler to have less 1980 Mr.O pics and more personal/family oriented photos to promote his persona outside of the gym .......Book ended up being mostly candid Pics of a downsized Arnold in Austria ......( All photos from Butler collection of course).

There's even a comment" prologue"  on that book about Mentzer and how Arnold ruined his life" or something to that effect without even mentioning Mentzer.


We'll keep investigating .... hoping HULU is not stealing precious info from this thread.

Easy man. I'm not Rimjob11. That's just mean

Royalty isn't doing too well at the moment.  He's in a crisis cycle of excited delirium.  He's hallucinating and thinks everyone is Rmj. I think he's suffering an emotional breakdown.

You have 20 accounts.

You're escalating again on your crisis cycle. Believing everyone is Rmj, furiously beating off to pictures of mentzer, posting more pics, having paranoid delusions, believing everyone is Rmj.

You've been at it awhile now. You should get some rest.

I sound angry? Are you hearing voices?

Listen, you're on a roller coaster of emotions. You're upset with me, you're longing for more , yet unseen, pictures of the Mentzer brothers, you're so strung out on Mike that you'll even settle for a pic of a downsized Boyer Coe on the nautilus leg press or an angry Ray in grass stained sneakers, you're having paranoid delusions about multiple Rmj accounts, you've been , bizarrely,  demanding pictures of umbrellas and upside down coffee mugs and now you're hearing my voice apparently. I think you're in a bit of a manic state. You've been on one. Take a rest.

Next thing you know you'll be running down Venice Blvd
 totally nude and drinking your own urine. Only no one will ever accuse you of being a genius or confuse you with ever having worked out. :-\

It has been closed. Arnold won. That's it. But the methzer girlie fans just can't let it go. They argue the point that methzer should've won...but how? He came 5th. 5TH! It wasn't even close between Arnold and methzer. Arnold only had to beat Zane to win and he did that easily. methzer couldn't even beat Zane since he lost to him in the olympia the year before. How was methzer ever going to beat a superior bodybuilder like Arnold when he couldnt even beat Zane? The reality is he couldn't. It just wasn't going to happen.

I think you’re either trolling or missing the point.  Take Mentzer completely out this mess. ( if you can)  ;D And the fact that Arnold won and CBS never aired the contest is exactly why there’s controversy surrounding the whole show.

There really is no controversy. This ongoing myth really needs to die now. Controversial? Not really, big guys always have the advantage. Dorian over Ray and mostly Cutler over Dexter etc. Arnold was big and developed while the other competitors were tiny compared to him. Bigger is better in the real world.

First up. The story of CBS sports, which was covering the event, had supposedly mentzer pegged as the winner before the contest results were announced. After the contest, they pulled their crew and never aired the coverage and never covered the O again. Well that’s all a lie.

The reality is there was never any statements by CBS about a fix or anything at all. No footage was broadcast because the filming crew had run out of tape. That’s all it was. They never filmed the whole thing as they didn't realise the contest goes on all day. The story about CBS pulling because of a "fix" was conjured up by Coe and mentzer since they were bitter losers and wanted to discredited Arnold. The story is still being kept alive by fans of mentzer’s training philosphy who want to rewrite history, because what else do they have to hang on to? Nothing.

Secondly, mentzer was never a contender. mentzer still would have been in 4th place even if Arnold had never entered. This whole Arnold vs mentzer thing was created years later as mike was never a real threat onstage. He was a footnote and nothing more. Classic case of revisionist history. He became a contender years after the fact when he had a resurgence of popularity from his HIT training system. Back in 1980 he was just a footnote. Now, somehow he was better than Arnold which isn't true. People can’t seperate their need to embellish his brief competitive record because they like HIT. So they make it seem like Arnold and mentzer were rivals, when Arnold barely knew mentzer existed most of the time. Arnold's only rivals were Sergio, Nubret and Ferrigno. mentzer just wasn’t worth noting as competition and no one would remember him if he hadn’t become an author of HIT books later in life.

mentzer couldn’t even beat Zane or Dickerson and they were pretty small. HIT devotees want to deify their idol though so they won’t stop claiming he was the rightful winner despite the evidence. Ludicrous. mike mentzer places lower than he felt and spends the rest of his ‘career’ whining about it.

mentzer came in bad shape. He had a deflated chest, undeveloped back, narrow shoulders, deformed traps, protruding gut, wide hips, fat ass, small arms with no peak along with poor posing. You are not going to win against superior bodybuilders with the look mentzer had in 1980. Very poor.

And another thing about mentzer- his HIT is BS. Did he train like that? Nope. First he says train 4 days a week, then his HIT gets more minimal over the years so he can get some attention. Finally, how often did he advocate training a bodypart- once every 12 days or something? Just a pile of BS to generate money. Nothing more.

As for Arnold not being at his best is he didn’t need to be. He didn’t have to be at his best. Do you know why Arnold risked his legacy to compete one more time? Because it was a WEAK line-up. All the major contenders were gone like Sergio, Ferrigno and Nubret and all Arnold had to do was beat a bunch of B-Listers who were half his size. None of them could be a dominate Mr Olympia they were just keeping the seat warm until a guy like Haney showed up.

Zane beat mentzer at the 79 Olympia but both guys were pretty small, and in 1980 mentzer finished a distant 5th while Zane got 3rd. There were a lot of guys in the contest but they were all B-list or C-list in some cases so stacked doesn’t mean much at all just a lot of filler. Now if an A-list guy like Sergio had of competed Arnold may not of entered. Only Samir had the potential and drive but he finished 15th in 1980. So yeah full but weak line-up at this contest.

The big guys had moved on, and the second tier guys were left or do you really think a small guy like Dickerson could have beat Sergio? Nope. Between the Arnold and Haney years was the rise of the smaller, skinnier Olympians who put more emphasis on conditioning rather than mass.

Anyway Zane was way off, Dickerson was too small and Samir was a long way from achieving his potential so none them posed a significant threat to Arnold which is why he entered and won.

And finally, people tend to believe what other people tell them about the 1980 contest, that is until they get to see the actual evidence for themselves and realise it was really was much ado about nothing. For some people it can be quite a surprise to realise that the judging wasn’t some great scandalous betrayal of everything that was good and holy like mentzer constantly claimed in his articles up until death finally let him get over it. It’s funny how people always say how Arnold’s prestige affected the results, when all this “controversy” is due to mentzer’s constant crying about the result! It was mentzer who had created a hype around himself! He didn’t like Arnold’s training style, so he didn’t like Arnold. mike just could not stop acting like a little child, very bad sport.

This whole idea that "volume" was Arnold's system, is pretty foolish.  I mean "volume" has been every successful bodybuilders style with the few exceptions of Mike and Dorian.  Mike was unhinged he had to create a rivalry with Arnold to generate interest in his own b.s.

"Arnold's system" = "Everyone else's system except for mine"

Very true. Dorian and methzer both used volume to build up before switching to hit type training while at the same time upping the dosages of drugs they were on to compensate for the lack of volume they were doing.

Arnold didnt look like Arnold and that is the biggest issue. people compare him in 1980 to his previous self. He was smaller. But still better than everyone else but just not as dominating in every pose etc. NOW methead mike actually believed his own hype. He even wrote an article saying how only him and zane have poise and polish etc and how he is going to win. Smh. PLUS the one little gay writer for weider really hugged mikes nuts  I think his name was jack neally or something. He was a schmoe who worshipped Mike!  He started the bs by saying how Mike was robbed ,Arnold cheated ,people booed Arnold, how Ray was walking around ready to throw a punch, how zane smashed his trophy etc. The guy was nuts. So that is really how it all started. Yes Meth was mad but everyone is at that level when they lose ESPECIALLY if they think they were going to beat Arnold because he didnt look like Arnold. And then Mike said how someone really wanted him gone to put him so far down the list as 5th. Hell there were people better than him that got even lower!   He even said this about himself "bodybuilding just lost its BEST spokesman" because he will never put his body thru this again!   Best spokesman? See how he thought of himself. The guy was crazy. Period!

Roger Walker was hugely underrated.

He was crowd favorite ..... but he is Australian while the contest being held in Australia so that was controversial in itself.

Mentzer looked great in that contest but he didn't come in second, third or fourth. He came in fifth. Hard to argue he deserved to win. I know there is a lot of hate for Dickerson for being gay.  He had a sick long career of competing but during the late 70's and early 80's few could beat him when he was on.  1980 he deserved second and I could hear an argument for first. He had a density others didn't have. Arnold in some pictures looks lacking but watching the videos he's clearly better than the field even being at 80% of his former self. Doesn't matter what we say. He won and it's over.

In the July 1981 m&F mag Mike wrote a feature on Tim Belknap and he wrote that Tim was ripped at 215 at 5 feet 4. He stated that 215 was his best weight at 5 feet 9. His later claims of 225 are obviously bull*hit as the 229 Arnold looks considerably bigger then the tint tit.

He gets way too much shit. I don't think he was as good as his record indicates. He's got dozens of victories and the Olympia.  And I think Casey should've won 82. But he's not as bad as people make him out to be. He had weak biceps and a couple of muscle tears but he was complete and dense. He was also probably one of those guys who looked more impressive in person hence his impact on the judges.

Title: Re: 1980 Olympia - CBS never released the footage
Post by: Vince B on December 23, 2023, 05:49:32 PM
When all is said and done I believe I took the best photo at the 1980 Mr Olympia contest. Years ago I remember reading the advice

from John Grimek who recommended taking photos from back in the audience at waist level to the competitors. There was a Mr Universe

contest at the Opera House in 1979 I believe. I figured out which row to set up my tripod and when it came to the contest we bought up

all the seats in the middle of the Opera House...200! Being a fair minded guy I invited John Balik to sit beside me at the night show. It

required one of my gym members to vacate his seat and take John's seat down at the front. He jumped at the opportunity. I had a contest

with Robert Nailon about who would take the best photos that year. He decided to use his 35mm camera on stage and back stage. Not a wise

decision as far as I am concerned. I took 360 B&W photos at the judging and then took colour slides at the evening show. Would you believe

the film in my camera jammed just before the finals that night. I still curse that time. I had a friend sitting in the row in front of me taking

a movie of the finals. I should have taken the film camera and put it on my tripod. Nope, I let him continue and he got so excited when Roger

Walker was in the posedown that he stamped his feet and cheered and spoiled the film. I do have the sound from the presentations and recorded

the long and loud booing when Arnold was announced as the winner.

I asked Robert what photos to send to each magazine and he told me to send them all. Silly me did exactly that and MuscleMag wouldn't publish

or pay for any photos because IronMan had the same photos. Joe Weider told me what to do but I didn't listen. I should have sent them contact

sheets and let them select what photos they wanted. I was so disgusted I sold all my negatives and slides to Robert Nailon for $1000. I had an

agreement with him, in writing, that I could make any copies of those photos or slides but I lost that agreement and Robert changed his mind

about what we agreed. I might get lucky and work out something with Robert. He was going to publish a book about the 1980 Mr Olympia but

so far nothing has been seen. It probably costs too much and who is going to buy them?

Yeah worth reaching out to him and maybe show him the pics you've touched up. Then tell him all you want to do is work on touching up the pictures and if he ever does his book you'd let him use the touched up pics. That way there's something in it for him too.

That's not a bad picture.  I thought these were taken the following day or two after the show. I always thought he looked tighter and not as flat, a little fuller, in these pics than he did on the night of the show.

Muscle Digest: What do you think about your victory at Mr. Olympia 80?


Arnold Schwarzenegger: I'm very happy about this victory. First: this was my seventh victory in these competitions. The victory raised the number of my records, as well as this victory over many new bodybuilders who have appeared over the past five years. I didn't speak out against them before. It was a great feeling - I beat all the new athletes. However, I must say that I was not in peak shape at these competitions, compared to, for example, 1975. My friends told me this, and I myself saw it in photographs. But this was enough to defeat these guys and win the competition. The victory was very difficult, because... The competitors were in excellent shape, which made these competitions very rough, which was more so than in my other starts.

Muscle Digest: How much percentage do you rate your terrain compared to the best terrain?

Arnold: I think it's somewhere around 90%.

Muscle Digest: Which bands were lagging behind?

Arnold: In my opinion, the overall definition was not perfect. I also haven’t been on stage for 5 years, this was my first meeting with the audience. I was surprised that during the compulsory program I had to perform to music. This victory was very difficult for me.

Muscle Digest: You've said in the past that you're tired. What made you change this statement, and at what point did this happen? Do we understand that the decision was not made until the last minute?

Arnold: That's right, I started training after a vacation in Europe at the end of July, beginning of August. We had a meeting with the directors of the film "Conan" - they decided to shoot the film in London and Spain in October. Conan was very healthy and well built, and also muscular. The director of the film asked if I could make the weight 220 pounds (105 kg) for filming in October, although he had previously asked me to weigh 215 pounds (97.5 kg). I agreed. However, I have to be as lean as possible at this weight. He said that you don’t need the same type of terrain as in competitions, you need to look muscular and big, because... During filming, the weight will change. In October, the director wanted me to weigh 230 or 240 pounds. I trained very hard - once a day, then twice, more and more intensely and harder, and when there was little time left before the competition, Vader and Franco (approx. we are talking about Franco Colombo) told me: “Why don’t I perform at “Mr. Olympia" and don't change "Mr. Olympia"?"

Muscle Digest: Who said that? Franco and who else?

Arnold: And Vader, Joe Weider. They said why don't I try to change the results of Mr. Olympia. This happened 3 weeks before the competition. I still refused, I really didn't want to perform. I'm tired. I'm risking too much. But one day I felt the desire to try - you know, it didn’t even happen consciously.

Muscle Digest: Were you planning to perform a demonstration program?

Arnold: No, I had to judge the competition.

Muscle Digest: When did you make your final decision?

Arnold: 2 or 3 weeks before the competition.

Muscle Digest: You didn't tell anyone about this?

Arnold: No one, because. I didn't know if I could stand it all. I could not do as Paul Graham advised - sign up for the starting list; I was not confident in myself. I've been working really hard, in the last two weeks I've had a lot of injuries due to overtraining and I've had to have cortisone injections for my shoulders. Cortisone retains water in the body. My ankles were swollen, but Franco said that was a side effect from the cortisone. I said that I would pose all day to improve the terrain and remove the water. I spent Friday posing and getting more and more ripped. After all this, I asked Ben Weider to tell Bill Pearl that I was participating in the competition.

Muscle Digest: When did you do this?

Arnold: Friday evening, the day before the competition.

Muscle Digest: Was this decision a tactical move? Were they surprised to hear this?


Arnold: I don’t know how others reacted, because... I lived in another hotel. Dennis Tinerino and others lived in the same hotel. The rest lived on the Sydney coast. Apart from Tinerino, I didn’t communicate with anyone else. I did not meet anyone until I arrived at the Opera House on Saturday at noon. There I saw Christina and Frank Zain. We shook hands, they laughed and joked: go back to the hall or something like that. Christina: "We wish you success, because today you really need it." I replied: “Yes, you are right.” After that, we had a meeting on weight categories, one or two weight categories, and also about refereeing - whether it is necessary to change judges. Finally, Bill Pearl was eliminated as a judge, Chris Dickerson was eliminated, and Bill Drake was eliminated because of me. But I really didn’t know the reaction of my opponents. I felt a certain coldness in my approach, but this always happens before a competition.

Muscle Digest: We want to ask a few specific questions that many people have been wondering: the names of the authors are not important. On the one hand, we heard that you were the best that night, despite shortcomings in muscle definition - and that the fight was very stubborn, victory was not clear until the last minute?

Arnold: I have to say that it was. It was a difficult battle. I didn't know anything about musical accompaniment until someone told me about it and it threw me off balance. I think some guys posed better than me.

Muscle Digest: Did no one warn you about the need for musical accompaniment?

Arnold: No, however, they had a recording of "Ixodes", which was the music I performed to in 1975, so I chose that again.

Muscle Digest: The second thing we heard was that when the mandatory posing began, you did everything your own way, and not the way the judges required. Still, judging by the protocols, you received the most points for the compulsory program.

Arnold: That's a lie. Looking at the judges' reports, you will see that judge Julien Rlommaert reduced the score for my behavior on stage. He gave me 18 points because... I, in his opinion, did not follow the judges’ commands, did not do the poses that they asked. However, we can not talk about Arnold's new behavior, but about the old behavior to which I always remained faithful: first I did the pose that the judges required, and then my own. This is how I spoke against S. Oliva in 1970. After all, when you know that you are not very good in this pose, then you try to make the judges forget about your shortcoming by doing the second pose. If the judges ask to show the abdominals, I will do this pose, but not more than 3 seconds and after that I will do the “most muscular” pose. The judges have the option to ignore my second pose or accept it. And I did it, but it was not new, strange behavior. The rules had changed a bit and I was waiting for someone to warn me.

Part 2

Muscle Digest: People said that you made posing a joke, that your performance took precedence over sports performance and that you made entertainment out of the show?

Arnold Schwarzenegger: I can't agree with that. On stage I am a personality. I'm especially happy when I go on stage. Sometimes I do everything with humor, but this is not a new behavior. -In South Africa, while posing with Franco, there were a lot of jokes. We laughed and talked. We pushed each other and joked around, but it was a serious rivalry, and Franco wanted to take the title from me. It's the same with Sergio. The kids these days are very serious, but I don't blame them for that. Probably now there are different times, new things that I don’t understand and which seem very serious to them. However, I will always remain true to my behavior. If I want to joke on stage, I will do it, but not out of disrespect for the sport. Quite the contrary, I did a lot for sports.

Muscle Digest: Some have said that another Mr. Olympia win will help keep you a movie star and promote a new role as Conan. Does this have any basis?

Arnold: The Mr. Olympia competition has nothing to do with Conan. They add nothing and take nothing away from the picture. I don't need advertising to win. After all, I have won so many times, and this victory no longer solves anything. I didn’t want international publicity, I didn’t want to be talked about as a reborn bodybuilding star, because... I devoted a lot of time to the goal of becoming an actor. There were no plans for advertising. After all, the star "Conan" - 5 times "Mr. Universe" and 6 times "Mr. Olympia" sounds just as good as 5 times "Mr. Universe" and 7 times "Mr. Olympia" . No difference. Universal invested 10-15 million in the film, so we got enough from it. I didn't need the Mr. Olympia competition for the film to be successful.

Muscle Digest: How much did you weigh on the day of the show?

Arnold: 225-230 lbs.

Muscle Digest: Some people claimed that the judges at the competition were your friends?

Arnold: No one could say that. When you devoted 18 years to bodybuilding, when you organized world championships for five years, when you are involved in the politics of bodybuilding, then you are friends with everyone and every judge. We live in a certain world, but if the judges at competitions choose you, it is for a completely different reason. I already said that my best friends were not for me. For example, Dan Howard, one of the judges and my ski partner, put me in third place, and my old friend from Belgium Blommert put me in sixth or seventh. It was with him that I had the most friendly relations. Frank Zane spoke bitterly about the competition after losing to Franco in 1976. The competition and judging were really not up to par. Franco said the opposite - the competition was wonderful, because he won! The next year, when Frank Zane won, the same people judged and everything was the same as the year before, he told me: “Thank you, Arnold, it was the most wonderful attempt of my life. The judging was wonderful, everything was great, I really I want to thank you." And in the next two years he told me the same thing. And Robbie Robinson and Bowyer Coe were disappointed with the refereeing. I think that after every competition the picture is the same, the winner always says that everything was wonderful, and the rest - that it was unfair. I'm the kind of person, if I lose, I was either fat or this guy is better. I remember how Zane "beat" me in 1968. He was better than me. He had better relief, that was obvious. He proved that volume doesn't always win. When Sergio beat me in 1969, it was clear that he was better, I agreed with it and was happy.

Muscle Digest: Some participants said that this was wrong, they trained for a whole year, and Arnold came, who had not competed for 5 years, trained for 2-3 months and won. What do you think about it?
Posted Image
Arnold: There can be no such question. You can't say at competitions: "I trained for so long, but Arnold only trained for 8 weeks." It won't help. If you are in a car race with a car that you have invested all your money in, and Paul Newman gets a brand new car from the factory and wins the competition. This does not mean that he won unfairly, but that he spent less effort on winning. I have a rule - to achieve greater success with the least amount of effort. This is why I think Mike Mentzer's training principles are very suitable for many bodybuilders, because... The greatest success is achieved with the least effort.

Muscle Digest: Suppose you lose?

Arnold: It would be scary, especially losing to a kid like Chris Dickerson. Losing to Frank Zane, Franco Colombo or Sergio Oliva is one thing, but losing to Dickerson would be a big blow.

Posted ImageMuscle Digest: Have you seen any slides or photos of these competitions?

Arnold: No. They will be very useful to me for a new book in the future. So I'll go to the reporters and get some good pictures.

Muscle Digest: People said that you weren't in the best shape, that you shouldn't have won. What can you answer?

Arnold: I'm not like other bodybuilders. I have so many other things to do that I don't pay attention to such things. The day after Olympia, I left Sydney, flew home, put on a suit and went to Columbus to organize the Mr. Universe competition. I didn't even talk about it. If you measure the reaction of the audience, you will notice that my performance was greeted with greater applause than others. In my opinion, if there are as many complications this year as you say, it is because these guys were shocked. They put a lot of time and effort into preparation. It was a shock to go up against someone who had trained for such a short time and won. In the past, you could lose glory in competitions. Now it's money. The guys are planning what they will do with a check for 20 or 30 thousand dollars. Things are getting too serious. The guys sit and expect rewards from the money and effort invested, but if you don’t win competitions, then the money is lost. But they should do other things, like me or Franco. He made great efforts to obtain a medical degree. While the boys were lying on the beaches, Franco was laying bricks and cement to earn money for classes at medical college. Bodybuilders shouldn't wait for a check, they should do other things too.

Muscle Digest: Some judges put you in third, fourth or fifth place. How do you rate this?

Arnold: I feel like a winner. I am very happy about this victory.

In the interview above Arnold said he told no one he was entering when he decided to enter about 3 weeks out. That is not true. Paul Graham knew and he told me so about that time when I visited him at him home in Bondi Junction to pick up more tickets. I was told so we could sell more tickets. They were $35 each and our gym sold 200 tickets = $7,000. There was a big trophy for the gym that supported the contest the best but Paul said there was no time to award it! I yelled out after the contest about the trophy. I picked it up took off the plaque and we sent the trophy to Chris Dickerson in LA. John Doyle took it over. We had a meeting about the Olympia and several of us formed a new bodybuilding organization because we weren't happy about what happened with Paul running things. The magazines didn't report that Chris was awarded a trophy by the bodybuilders of Australia. Quite unprecedented I believe for the 2nd place winner to get such an award.

He didn't do to well in 80. Thought he was smooth for that show. Big but smooth.  I thought Roy Callender was overlooked big time as you said. In some pics standing next to Mentzer, Dickerson and Zane it's obvious he's carrying a lot more muscle than those guys, especially in the chest and other than calves his legs were among the best at the show.

In an article I wrote about the contest I urged Danny to come back cut to pieces and that is exactly what he did in 81 and 82. They still didn't give it to him. The history of bodybuilding is a strange one. In the old days anyone who wanted to promote a contest would worry about getting an audience. The solution was all the local gym owners were invited to judge and they would bring competitors and families, etc. If judges voted for their own competitors their votes would be cancelled by the others. Seemed to work. Trouble was were those gym owners good judges?

The selection of judges in the IFBB isn't an open and transparent process. Seven judges aren't enough, either, if two scores are removed leaving 5 voting judges. The NABBA Universe evolved to have many more judges. Something like 15. That way the contestants feel a fairer process should occur. Politics does play a part especially if promoters have a say in the selection of judges.

Reality is though he had a flat chest, narrow shoulders, small arms with no peak, undeveloped back with deformed traps, a fat ass, protruding gut and poor posing. So no, he had no chance of winning at all. He came 5th.

Wrong ...  Only the background was touched/darken to make the physique stand out more  ....  just look at the pic posted on the post before, mike is behind Zane (further away from camera) yet he looks bigger and better than Zane and the chest looks as good as the picture I just posted......


There's a lot of pictures where Mike looks fairly better (not only the hidden/buried  CBS footage) sadly at the time Busek,Balik,Vince and two others  photographers I can't remember their names sold the pics to "Vader" and Arnie .....

Mentzer looked great but he came in 5th. Not second or third. You can't just look at still pictures, you have to look at the video too. I think the placings were correct. Arnold at 80% was better than the rest even with the light legs. If anyone had a complaint it would have been Chris Dickerson who came in second in second in three Olympia's and was winning all the big pro shows like the various Grand Prix contests that he and Coe alternated winning. Zane was probably the most ripped he ever was but was down in weight from cutting his dick on a sharp edge on a pool chair tanning that collapsed. Coe was probably the best he ever was in that contest. The one that might have a true beef was Roy Callender. He is so black that if the lights weren't bright he would look washed out. Back then he really was placed lower than he should have in so many contests. Padilla was off.

Mentzer looked great but he came in 5th. Not second or third. You can't just look at still pictures, you have to look at the video too. I think the placings were correct. Arnold at 80% was better than the rest even with the light legs.

Great analysis. Boyer was his best ever but his ab genetics would always hold him back. Dickerson and Padilla were just too short to go up against Arnold. Zane's genital injury was brutal. Mentzer was 5th! 5th place which was a gift. Roger Walker got screwed.

Mike was definitely in it to win it, no wonder so many experts consider this the best physique on stage that year.




WooooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH H

I'm pretty sure that pic was in the 1979 Muscle Mag International annual issue.

from a 1979 Grand Prix. 

i think that pic is exactly like in the old mag i have.

Ok.. its good evidence that he was pretty far off in 1980. This pic is pretty impressive.

I read his article about his year leading up to the 80 Olympia he talked about using amphetamines to maintain his hectic life, his training seminars and mail order business and he detailed the impact his fathers death had on him. He said he was sleeping 4 hes a night. It would explain his flat appearance. His cortisol was probably through the roof.

Totally agree. There's always been something about their similarities.  I could quite place it but you are correct. In different era's with different drugs they could look very similar.

There was a Marvel Black Panther comic book on the stands a few years ago. The cover artist clearly copied or traced a picture of a bodybuilder.  It caught my eye because I immediately recognized it and thought: thats Chris Dickerson... then on a second look I thought no, thats Heath.

Ill try and find a pic of the comic.

              Yes that is true. Vince did in fact say that to Arnold. That is exactly what Arnold needed to hear. That drove him to become the greatest bodybuilder that ever lived. Arnold will prove anyone wrong who doubts him. Just like when he needed better calves. He cut off his sweatpants to show his calves . That made him bust his ass 6 and 7 days a week on the calves ( NO he did NOT have implants smh)    He was huge because in europe that is all they wanted ( kind of like nowdays just big bloated masses) So he trained and ate proper and became the best.

Mike did in fact deserved to win that year but just by a hair. Like I have stated Mike was a good bodybuilder but when compared to bigger guys he was tiny. By himself he did look good just like zane did. But on stage next to the bog boys they both  vanished. All the little guys did. Hell even ferrigno at like 40 lbs more than Arnold in 74 looked skinny. 75 he ( ferrigno) was big but smooth. Nubret looked good but no legs. Arnold was the complete package back when that counted. Big, cut, proportionate, symmetry, tan, no tats, and stage presence ( counts for ALOT)

In all fairness,  I can understand why all these guys would be pissed.

But, on the other hand.....

After 75, Arnold goes on to promote the sport, brought all kinds of mainstream publicity to bodybuilding and all these guys, who would've remained total unknowns if not for Pumping Iron, Stay Hungry and the spotlight Arnold brought to the sport.  In addition Arnold promoted the Olympia contest from 76- 79.

All these guys resented Arnold for his fame even though they're benefiting from it, they're still in his shadow. So what do they do? Zane insults Arnold on TV immediately after winning 79. Mentzer thinks it's a good idea to trash Arnold and his training style, shit talking to the magazines and anybody that will listen.... (Gee,that seems like a real smart strategy to win the show)

T: Hi Mike. What's going on in your life? Why don't you tell us what kind of things you've been doing, and how your career is going?

MM: There is only one valid theory of exercise science and most of what has been said has been said by people with no background in philosophy, logic, or science. For that matter, most of what has been said has been said by people who had no background in gardening or gynecology, either, which harkens me back to the 1980 Olympia Contest where history's ultimate non-Ayn Rand person, Arnold Schwarzeneggar, accepted the Olympia crown when every man, woman, and child in existence (I should know, I polled each of them independently, except for a contentious individual in Fresno who refuses to accept my calls) believes I should have been the winner. We may be able to send a man to the moon, but when it comes to recognizing the rightful winner of the 1980 Olympiad, mankind is surely arrested in its development.

T: Uhh, okay?great. Listen, a lot of people are still interested in heavy-duty training and this concept of "one set to failure." For those readers who weren't around in the seventies, could you please clarify this interesting and provocative training theory?

MM: Back in 1980, just before the 1980 Mr. Olympia contest, I was in phenomenal shape; I was the romantic and spiritual ideal of any self-actualized human being. Do you, perchance, remember that sonnet written by Karen Carpenter?who, incidentally, was a classic overtrainer?where she sang, "On the day that you were born, the angels got together and decided to create a dream come true, so they sprinkled moon dust in your hair, and la-de-da-de-da-da-da-da-da?" Well, I was that individual on whom the angels sprinkled their precious extra-terrestrial dust! I had trained with the ultra high intensity of a mad bull who had just heard his mentor, Ayn Rand, verbally attacked by the other bulls in the pen and various other farm animals in general. I had, in short, trained to failure!

T: Mike, you seem to be rather obsessed with this 1980 Olympia?

MM: One set! One set no matter what! I once had relations with a woman. One pelvic thrust! That's all. She refused to have an orgasm, but that was because of her own physical and intellectual limitations. I once was fed a turkey leg at Thanksgiving. I inserted the whole leg?which clearly came from a fowl who was a chronic overtrainer?into my mouth, chewed once, and swallowed. Now, this was before I had mastered the "one set to failure" concept, and the leg lodged in my throat and was expelled forcefully only after my brother Ray exerted a forceful Heimlich maneuver. No matter that the hurling fowl leg shattered most of dinner host Joe Weider's collection of fine china, the experience only reinforced my own ideas about the validity of heavy duty training.

T: Why don't we talk some other time, okay? I really have to go service the laser printer?

MM: Look, I'll prove it to you: Einstein proved the theory of relativity, correct? Well, then, ipso facto, if my sister has a house in Albany with a couple of infants?who happen to habitually overtrain, mind you?and she refuses to lend her brother any money even though he promised to pay her back once the world recognizes him as being its true intellectual leader, and this brother was robbed of the 1980 Olympia Contest, it becomes crystal clear, right? Now, given that the vast majority of bodybuilders are intellectually self-arrested, you couldn't possibly understand that, so don't bother getting contentious with me. Now, we can build a toaster that toasts bread until it's the color of Halle Barry's firm curvilinear backside, so why can't we understand that there's only one valid theory of training?

T: Mike, gotta' go. Really. I'm needed back on the planet Earth.

MM: Yes, it's true that I admire Ayn Rand, but I am slightly discouraged that she doesn't answer my mail or return my calls. Yes, she's been dead about sixteen years, but that seems to me to be a poor excuse for ignoring someone who is her intellectual equivalent. My biceps are considerably larger too, but I suspect that she, despite her inestimable intelligence, was a chronic overtrainer. Yes, yes, we may be able to build one of those funny little devices that gives a man a shock when you shake his hand, but it's apparent that mankind isn't ready to accept heavy duty training yet. Back in Sydney, in 1980, they also weren't ready to accept that man is a heroic being whose highest moral purpose is the achievement of his own happiness, whose noblest activity is productive achievement, and whose only absolute is reason, either. For that reason, I will not rest until I short-sheet the beds of all the judges involved in that reprehensible decision.

T: Uhh, thanks for your time Mike! Gotta' run. Really. Thanks.

By himself Mike Mentzer looked great. Many photos of him available to show this. He had a build most of us would be pleased with. Yet standing next to a near prime or even 70% Arnold he just gets dwarfed and washed out. To be fair most of humanity does. ARNOLD literally is the Muhammad Ali of bodybuilding.  Arnold's genetics combined with his unwavering competitive drive as well as his charisma cannot even be measured. Nobody on stage has ever had Arnold's presence. It's a huge factor in how champions are seen by the judges as well as the novice viewer. People can just see the difference immediatly

Arnold is not leaning too far back, the camera angle is wrong for this shot, he leans back and twists side to side to show he is the best in this pose. Mike loses this due to his small frame, narrow shoulders, small arms and flat chest. 3 points detracted as well for the porn stash and bad hair cut with the home pride bread part down the middle. Mike was a gucked up meth head and lost......get over it.

Mike Mentzer came up with the concept of Heavy Duty while smoking meth.

John Little is the number #1 Mentzer nut hugger. Royalty is just a cheap imitation. Sad.

Afterwards Shawn said that he thought that he was going to “make history” at the 1991 Olympia

Then when Haney took his shirt of backstage...  Shawn realized that he was going to “witness history being made”.... because Haney was 100%, lights out, game over, untouchable. 8th Sandow.

Just before he died, Mentzer said this very thing about Arnold in 1980. I think these were his last words ... P.I.P.

Yes Arnold did lots of things on stage and before the show etc. He fucked with peoples minds. Also on stage he knew if he could keep the judges looking at him then they would  have to compare others even less.  He had that certain "stage presence".  It just screams " I am the best" He was the best.

I'm sorry but the more this retard, Royalty,  continues to bump these mentzer threads, the funnier I find it that Mike Mentzer had the all time biggest meltdown and fall from grace because Arnold told him he had a fat belly. It's actually hilarious when you think about a grown man crumbling to pieces over it. Losing the Olympia then losing his mind.

Mike was so skeptical of Arnolds "mind games" and yet became the All-Time best example of those tricks working!

methzer was never a contender. methzer still would have been in 4th place even if Arnold had never entered. This whole Arnold vs methzer thing was created years later as methzer was never a real threat onstage. He was a footnote and nothing more. Classic case of revisionist history. He became a contender years after the fact when he had a resurgence of popularity from his HIT training system. Back in 1980 he was just a footnote. Now, somehow he was better than Arnold which isn't true. People can’t seperate their need to embellish his brief competitive record because they like HIT. So they make it seem like Arnold and methzer were rivals, when Arnold barely knew methzer existed most of the time. Arnold's only rivals were Sergio, Nubret and Ferrigno. methzer just wasn’t worth noting as competition and no one would remember him if he hadn’t become an author of HIT books later in life.

methzer couldn’t even beat Zane or Dickerson and they were pretty small. HIT devotees want to deify their idol though so they won’t stop claiming he was the rightful winner despite the evidence. Ludicrous. methzer places lower than he felt and spends the rest of his ‘career’ whining about it.

methzer came in bad shape. He had a deflated chest, undeveloped back, narrow shoulders, deformed traps, protruding gut, wide hips, fat ass, small arms with no peak along with poor posing. You are not going to win against superior bodybuilders with the look methzer had in 1980. Very poor.

And another thing about methzer, his HIT is BS. Did he train like that? Nope. First he says train 4 days a week, then his HIT gets more minimal over the years so he can get some attention. Finally, how often did he advocate training a bodypart- once every 12 days or something? Just a pile of BS to generate money. Nothing more.

As for Arnold not being at his best is he didn’t need to be. He didn’t have to be at his best. Do you know why Arnold risked his legacy to compete one more time? Because it was a WEAK line-up. All the major contenders were gone like Sergio, Ferrigno and Nubret and all Arnold had to do was beat a bunch of B-Listers who were half his size. None of them could be a dominate Mr Olympia they were just keeping the seat warm until a guy like Haney showed up.

Zane beat methzer at the 79 Olympia but both guys were pretty small, and in 1980 methzer finished a distant 5th while Zane got 3rd. There were a lot of guys in the contest but they were all B-list or C-list in some cases so stacked doesn’t mean much at all just a lot of filler. Now if an A-list guy like Sergio had of competed Arnold may not of entered. Only Samir had the potential and drive but he finished 15th in 1980. So yeah full but weak line-up at this contest.

The big guys had moved on, and the second tier guys were left or do you really think a small guy like Dickerson could have beat Sergio? Nope. Between the Arnold and Haney years was the rise of the smaller, skinnier Olympians who put more emphasis on conditioning rather than mass.

Anyway Zane was way off, Dickerson was too small and Samir was a long way from achieving his potential so none them posed a significant threat to Arnold which is why he entered and won.

Hey Royalty,

What's the goal here really? I mean are you delusional enough to think we will cave and agree with your belief Methnzer deserved to win? 1+1=2 saying 1+1=3 over and over does not make it so. I mean that's how the libturds work things out, the general public are in fact stupid enough to fall for it. Is it your hope we all do the same?


Surely your trolling. Not one champion bodybuilder became one using Mike Methzners methods. There are no champion HIT bodybuilders, as there are no well built head turning natural physiques in everyday life that train strictly with hit.

Mike lost everything in his life, he lost his ability to compete, arnold destroyed him. He lost his girlfriend, his job with weider, his mind, his friends, then ultimately he lost his life as he slipped slowly I to madness. Died a fat drug added delusional 49 year young man. Clearly he was not.someone to take advice from.

You must be trolling 🧌

This would be especially damaging to Arnold’s image because the average American now considers Arnold to be an evil bitch.

Lets discuss placings 2,3 and 4.

It's fairly unanimous that Coe was better than mentzer

Pretty clear that an anemic Zane is light years ahead of mentzer.

I never saw Dickerson as being all that great but even still I give him more credit than most. Here I think Dickerson has better legs than mentzer by a slim margin. Both had odd abs but Illgive the edge to mike. Neither had a great chest but Chris had more muscle in his chest but it was torn. Though in 1980 chris's chest was still symmetrical. Mentzer had good chest shape but was flat in 80. Ill say chest is even. Arms go to mike. Shoulders are also close. Chris's back was miles ahead of mike. So in 1980 Dickerson gets the nod over mike too.

Yep. Mike was a deserving 5th. My guess is walker and Callender  deserved to place higher than mike.

Bodybuilding scores are rankings, having a perfect score means a judge agrees you were the best bodybuilder at that show, not that your physique is perfect. If someone that placed 2nd to 6th at the Olympia turned up at some no name backwater pro show, they'd be more or less guaranteed to get a perfect score. If someone is unanimously agreed to have the best physique in the novice category at an amateur show, they will get a perfect score. That doesn't mean 2nd to 6th at the Olympia or a random amateur has a better a physique than a Mr Olympia that won without a perfect score, it means means they were unanimously agreed to be the best at a less competitive show. And methzer didn't receive a perfect score at the 79 Olympia, he received a perfect score in the heavyweight division of the 79 Olympia, meaning some judges merely agreed he was the best heavyweight not the best overall bodybuilder. So there.

This is the odd part of this whole discussion.

The Hittites- "80 was bogus. Mentzer should have won blah blah blah judge were corrupt,  all Arnolds friends blah blahblah..."

Then there is considerable debate between the Arnold camp and the Mentzer camp.

The Hittites inevitably point to Mentzers greatness by pointing out that judges awarded him a perfect score.

So when Mike loses it's because the judges are all corrupt and in Arnolds back pocket...when mike wins with a perfect score it's indisputable proof of his greatness. There's suddenly no mention of the judging???

I agree: Mike looked great at the USA vs. The World (thats where the pic is from. He actually looked less sharp when he got the perfect score at the universe)

I also agree: Arnold won in 80 and Mike was 5th.

Can't have it both ways.....well you can but its just hypocritical and diminishes your credibility.

"So when Mike loses it's because the judges are all corrupt and in Arnolds back pocket...when mike wins with a perfect score it's indisputable proof of his greatness. There's suddenly no mention of the judging???"

This applies to many bodybuilders who cry "a fix because of politics" when they don't get their way. Yet when they do place 1st they never mention a fix or politics. A lot of bodybuilders have very fragile egos so when they don't get a placing they think theh deserve they blame politics or the judging or it was all a fix. None of thst is true. They lost because they simply weren't good enough. That's all.

methzer was delusional. He really thought he was going to beat Arnold Schwarzenegger, a genetically superior bodybuilder to the mamlet methzer, despite the fact that he couldn't even told Frank Zane. There was no way meth head was going to come in the olympia in 1980 and top both Arnold and Zane. That was just never going to happen. 4 superior bodybuilders placed before methzer and his fragile ego couldn't handle it. He breaks down and quits bodybuilding forever. He showed everybody that night what a WEAK minded person he really was. That night haunted him for the rest of his days. Instead of accepting defeat he whined about it, blaming the judges being in Arnold's back pocket and other such nonsense but never ever taking responsibility for his own failures.

Just for a moment. Imagine it's 2025. Derek lunsford is in his best shape ever heading into the Olympia. There's a lot riding on the line because there's chatter that the Olympia is going to be moved to Dubai in the near future.  In order to generate interest the rumor is Big Ramy is going to do color commentary for Al Jazeera.

Unfortunately,  due to a freak accident involving a dirty syringe and a lawn chair, Lunsfords armpits explode. Derek calls big Ramy for advice. He says: Mamdoh, you once won the Olympia with pits in your thighs, do you think I can win with no pits at all? Big Ramy shrewdly replies "Matt Damon! Jerka jerka Muhammad jihad jerka!"

Derek takes Ramys advice and to everyones surprise a downsized Ramy shows up an enters the contest at the last minute  Ramy uses all of his mind tricks to psyche out the competetion. Rumor is prior to the show at a secret athletes meeting Ramy infuriates the competitors by insisting everybody compete in one  large open division including wheelchair,  classic, physique, ms. Olympia. Nick Walker gets particularly frustrated at this level of stupidity and snaps his hamstring in two while lunging at Ramy in a moment of anger.

Then, a laclustre Ramy wins the Olympia in a controversial contest. The crowd boos loudly as Ramy takes to tge podium and says: Maaattt  Damon! Jerka jerka Muhammad jihad jerka".  Hadi Choopan is so heartbroken he smashes his trophy,  Samson Duada is so pissed and dejected he retires from the sport and becomes a vagrant on the streets of Dubai. Reps from Al Jazeera release a statement, in between broadcasting war crimes in Ukraine and torture scenes from the gaza strip, that Dubai will not host the Mr.Olympia because "It's just too controversial."

Yeah he did, he used  his genius IQ to rip off Arthur Jones HIT ideas and call it Heavy Duty.

It's amazing the cult-like following Mike has. Padilla, Coe, Calendar, Robinson, Zane, Bannout all have there fans, but not the obsession of Mentzer fans. Even uniquely popular guys like Platz or even Ferrigno who are both really well known bodybuilders don't have psycho fans like Mike.

When you stop and think about it the biggest for Mike's popularity IS losing to Arnold (and throwing a tantrum) otherwise he wouldn't have the enduring popularity that he does.

The film footage that CBS never released was actually “Camel Toe” footage.

After Arnold did 2 lines of cocaine at the 1980 Olympia, he put on his posing trunks...


The CBS film crew’s cameras recorded what appeared to be a “HOOF PRINT” in Arnold posing trunks. This gave Arnold a “dickless” appearance.


Mentzer pointed directly at the “hoof print” backstage. Arnold crossed his legs and changed the subject.

But why?  Can anyone explain to me why people like Royalty and dj and a few others always want to do that?  It makes no sense. I don't pay much attention to this character but I have noticed he will try to argue always. Constantly saying negative things hoping someone will take the bait. But Why?
                        Ever notice people will argue even when they are dead wrong thinking if they say enough people will believe them ( like democrats do)  . I learned a long time ago to not argue unless I am 100% right. I don't want to look stupid like these clowns. Even when I am right and try to prove I am right I don't keep trying for long because your never gonna fix stupid so why should I keep trying? My sisters always accuse me of being a "no it all".  I say nope not even close. I just don't argue unless I am right.
                          Like saying mentzer beat Arnold  . Everyone knows who knows real bodybuilding Arnold was in fact better than all them. It was closer than Arnold was used to for sure. He was not as dominate . So if you compare 1980 version to previous versions he didn't look as good. No doubt about it. BUT he was still better than everyone else.  Mentzer was given a gift that day as he was in all the other contests too. Case closed. Move on from 1980. It is over Arnold won became what he is today and Methead became what he is today. A corpse. I can see his treatment in hell right now. Telling the devil to only burn him a little bit each week because he doesnt want to "over burn".

My sisters always accuse me of being a "no it all".  I say nope not even close. I just don't argue unless I am right.
                          Like saying mentzer beat Arnold  . Everyone knows who knows real bodybuilding Arnold was in fact better than all them. It was closer than Arnold was used to for sure. He was not as dominate . So if you compare 1980 version to previous versions he didn't look as good. No doubt about it. BUT he was still better than everyone else.  Mentzer was given a gift that day as he was in all the other contests too. Case closed. Move on from 1980. It is over Arnold won became what he is today and Methead became what he is today. A corpse. I can see his treatment in hell right now. Telling the devil to only burn him a little bit each week because he doesnt want to "over burn".

Your correct about his need for baiting people into an argument. I've replied more times to his lunacy than I should have. I'm going to let him continue on. Hopefully others will no longer take the bait and he will see how strange his posts have become.

Mike was a better bodybuilder than any of us on the boards could aspire to. Yet the obsession with the 1980 is a sad pathetic waste of time. Even if Arnold cheated that day even if .Ike was better yet still lost. To what avail is Royalty and others obsession with discussing this any further. History will always show Arnold as the winner. Get over it move on find something positive to round out your day. We all know how Mike spiraled into depression ND drug abuse due to this very behavior. 

Arnold won and was always going to

Good points. Royalty is a Royal asshole.

You're right: to what end does he bring this up? Nothing is ever going to change the result. For arguments sake, even if Arnold wete to give the title back and renounce his claim; Chris Dickerson would then be the winner.

Is it validation? He's just going to go on arguing with people to try and make them agree, one by one? Or what?

Also continuously bringing it up invites the criticism of Mentzer.  Ex: if he constantly says Arnold was a coke head and imply he did G4P to advance his career,  it's just too easy to bring up Mike's actual homosexuality and drug abuse... but it's really sad and gross. People who actually knew Mike when he was younger say he was a really good person. Let the man rest in peace. Stop obsessing over it.

Mentzer came in fifth, not fourth, not third or second.  Arnold at 80% was still the winner from my conclusion watching the tapes and not still pictures. Yes, in this subjective sport nothing is a mathematical certainty picking a winner. If Arnold came in his 1974 or 1975 version there would be zero discussion.
Title: Re: 1980 Olympia - CBS never released the footage
Post by: Vince B on February 25, 2024, 05:45:50 PM
Everyone argues about Arnold winning the 1980 Olympia. Yes, but what about the judging? We all underestimated Arnold when he arrived in Los Angeles. He was much smarter than he seemed. His former house mate, Paul Graham, was the promoter of the contest. Arnold was living with Paul and Ken Moran somewhere near Vince's Gym in Studio City. In Arnold's autobiography, Total Recall, he twice mentions driving cars to a dock in LA that were being shipped to Australia. Paul Graham's name wasn't mentioned because he was arrested in early 1969 in Honolulu by the FBI for sending stolen cars out of the USA. We wonder how Arnold's house mates were overlooked by the FBI. Paul was convicted and spent a couple years in a federal prison. He took the rap by himself. So Arnold owes Paul big time. Ken Moran arrived in Vancouver, BC, driving a red 350 Shelby Mustang. He boasted that he lived with Arnold. We asked him why he wasn't still there. He explained that he was in an accident and didn't have insurance so had to leave the country. How then did he get that almost new Mustang? He eventually took that car to New Zealand where it was worth a small fortune...enough to buy a house with in those days.

In 1980 our gym sold 200 tickets to that contest at $35 each. About a month out from the contest Paul told me Arnold was entering. He was pleased I kept coming to his house in Bondi Junction to collect more tickets. Naturally I could sell more if Arnold was competing. Paul and I had a bitter history in Australia about judging contests we were in. There was a trophy for the best support gym but he didn't present it at the contest. No way he was going to give me any recognition. There was a meeting shortly after the Olympia at our gym where bodybuilders decided to form a new organization. We decided to send the trophy our gym won to Chris Dickerson. The caption read, "Chris Dickerson, Mr Olympia 1980, from the bodybuilders of Australia. John Doyle took it over and presented it to Chris. Chris never said anything about getting that trophy.

So, there was Arnold in 1980 needing more publicity to help him get roles in movies. He wasn't happy in 1979 when he interviewed Frank Zane. He asked Frank if winning the Olympia for the third time was the biggest thrill of his life. Frank replied that beating Arnold in 1968 for Mr Universe in Miami was a bigger thrill! The look on Arnold's face was classic. Not often someone gets the better of Arnold like that.

About the judging. Paul had picked Brendan Ryan and Peter McCarthy as Australian judges. Peter had won Mr Australia and several other big titles in the area. Brendan won a Junior Mr Australia title. He had stayed at Arnold's place in LA so was mates with Arnold. I was standing with Peter and Frank Burwash in the foyer of the Opera House before the contest. Someone came up to Peter and told him the judge's meeting had already started. Peter swore and ran off to the meeting. Someone had told him the wrong time! Because Peter had missed part of the meeting he wasn't allowed to judge so was replaced by Dr Michael Walczak.  Arnold didn't enter until he knew he had the support of most of the judges. He was mates with Dan Howard but Dan didn't vote for him. Brendan did. Peter didn't. So, had Peter judged the result would have been closer.

Ben Weider wanted to get bodybuilding into the Olympic Games. So he devised a judging system similar to other sports such as diving and gymnastics. There were 3 rounds then a pose down. Standing relaxed, standard poses, then routine. Finally comparisons were made standing and standard poses. At the finals a pose down was held that was scored. How on earth that could be judged was a mystery. Critics have concluded it was included so that errant judges had a chance to correct their decisions. If any judge deviated too much from the other judges he was considered unsatisfactory and wasn't allowed to judge again.

In the first call out Arnold wasn't included. There he was with his head down behind a grinning Mike Mentzer. That photo told the story. However, Arnold was included in subsequent call outs and he did every thing he could to bring attention to himself. He was warned a couple of times not to do things but he wasn't marked down for them. Like doing a biceps pose during the triceps pose. And doing a most muscular before leaving the stage. Frank and Chris didn't look so good beside Arnold in the comparisons. Arnold's huge arms and chest made them look like beginners.

By the way, they scored each round out of 20 points. What happened was too many judges gave 20 scores so they didn't separate the competitors. Those who did separate them had more weight in the placings. Brendan did separate them so his scores counted for more than those who gave several competitors a 20 score.

Yes, the contest was close. Mike looked the best in the photo I took that made the cover of IronMan. Boyer Coe had a flawless routine. Chris gave an artistic display that was popular with the audience. Dennis was the most conditioned bodybuilder there with the best abs and probably the widest. Roger Walker didn't look small beside Arnold. Danny Padilla wasn't compared that I remember but had the most complete physique and was huge as well. In an objective contest he would have been the winner but because he was short he wasn't even considered which is a shame. I can tell you the audience booed loud and long when the winner was announced! Eventually they did applaud Arnold but I bet that was the first time he was booed like that.

The reason this contest is still being discussed is because of the reasons I mention above. It isn't a waste of time. Just because someone wins a contest doesn't mean he was the best there.

Hard to criticize Mike's physique in 1980. The whole show was a travesty.

I wrote an article about the judging at that contest but no magazine would publish it. I finally gave it to Mike at Gold's Gym in 1991.

I remember after the contest that it was hard to know where to place Arnold. Sergio and Arnold dominated bodybuilding from 1967 until the late seventies.

The judging process with those silly rounds contributed to the controversy. NABBA had already developed an excellent process but Ben Weider tried to

impress the Olympic Games officials by having a system similar to ice skating, gymnastics and diving.

What should have happened in 1980 was that after the first competitor was scored in each round the judges committee would meet and give the competitor a corrected score.

For example, if the competitor scored 20 out of 20 it would be adjusted to a lower score to enable a higher score if another competitor surpassed that first competitor. They didn't

do this so what happened was that a judge would give several competitors the same maximum score. That isn't separating the competitors.

The round should have been a guide to select the finalists. Once selected then comparisons would be made and all the finalists placed first, second, third, and so on.

The ugly truth is the selection of judges shouldn't be the responsibility of the promoter. Definite no, no. A committee should select the judges and no one else.

1980 saw Paul Graham promote the Olympia and his former house mate, Arnold, entered secretly. That isn't fair to the others who competed. No wonder so many are pissed off,

and rightly so.

Great points, but for some reason it seems all linked one way or another to Arnold being so powerful within the industry ....

However, If Arnold was a Rookie/new face pro bodybuilder entering the Olympia for the first time looking the exact same way he did ....

Do you think people would still have as much pain/problem with him winning the show ?

Arnold’s legs belong on a soccer player or a swimmer

Zero adductors, Almost no sweep

No striations, Poor teardrop development

Just like the rest of the lineup, Dickerson destroyed Arnold’s legs

Arnold also posed naked for schmoes & he was involved with Paul Graham this is pretty much known but like some things just not spoken about.
If Arnold was/is Bi-sexual is his thing but when it involved criminalitate & the promotor of the `80 Mr O was his lover then yes it is an issue.
Paul Graham covered Arnold´s ass in more ways than one  :). He (Paul Graham) took the rap for Arnold & must have had feelings for him to do this.
Paul Graham is probably an OK guy to his friends or his lovers & i suppose it shows he´s a loyal man ..even if he was a criminal.

Bodybuilding is a narcissistic, obsessive compulsive activity I don't know anyone expecting to become a millionaire from it.  Lol. 

However, By 1980 Arnold was already Ritch and had 6 MrO tittles .....  to think he had to suck some promoters dick to win another show at that point is just plain stupid ....

Especially when you had current top competitors sucking D for free across the IFBB, ;D

I agree, Arnold sucks in those pictures by himself (specially compared with his 1974 shape )

However, it is when he is compared to the rest of line up that he looks like the winner....

There is is no “crying”.


Arnold won 6 Olympia’s.

Arnold fucked a man in 1980 and he got booed of off the Olympia stage.


End of story.


Mentzer got fucked by several men and got fifth .... ;D


So there you have it , you and your endless fixation with GAY SEX.

If the remastered never before seen footage of the most controversial bodybuilding contest of all time is finally released., And all the comparison shots from the back shows Dickeson in better shape than Arnold, and all the booing after Arnold is called the winner is evident. 


Would you be surprised ? Buy the DVD ?

 Would it hurt Arnold's bodybuilding legacy or simply make it more relevant for younger generation that would get to see Arnold in a bodybuilding contest in a more realistic approach than Pumping Iron  ?





Woooshhhhhhhh.    2015. 


Arnold lost badly. Every pro who competed that day said that Arnold wasn’t in the top 5.


Then we all found out that he fucked the promoter. Gay for Pay in its purest form.

Yes! The mindset of a winner. The determination of a champion. One of the most winningest bodybuilders of all time. Then he climbed to the top. Kept trying improving every year until he won the Olympia....

Unlike some.

What was the one guy? He lost at the O? Placed out of the top 4? IIRC he threw a tantrum , blamed Arnold. I think he even quit and eventually became a homeless addict, sucking cock for meth....

The Origins of Gay for Pay

Im afraid you found out about G4P some 50 years a bit too late ...

Doing Gay for free getting you mustache iced, and not getting anywhere, living in a condo having to do some very nasty stuff (Trumps voice) to get the rent 25 % covered ...  must be a never recover trauma ....

No to mention being extremely mentally unstable, completely out shape by age 40 and chasing youngsters for sexual favors... and again , getting NOTHING in return :'(

“For five years I had Arnold under training. Singing lessons; acting lessons, dancing lessons. I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on him. I was gonna make Arnold a big star! And let me be even more frank, just to show you that I'm not a hard-hearted man, and it's not all dollars and cents. He was beautiful; he was young, he was innocent. He was the greatest piece of ass I ever had, and I had 'em all over the world!”

Royalty,  read Beakdoctor's words

Royalty first became infatuated with me on new years eve, 2023. I'm not really certain what caused his sudden obsession, but it appeared to me and everyone else on the board that he was suffering from a complete mental collapse as well as a pre-existing low I.Q.

Royalty would often ask, order, demand, and even beg other Getbiggers,  including myself, to post pictures of themselves. This was ostensibly for the purposes of proving the user in question was not a "gimmick." We only later learned royalty was stockpiling pictures for his own sordid purposes.

A deep dive into the mind of Royalty proved he was a lunatic.  Suffering from psychosis due to years of suppressed homosexual desires. Royalty,  as is typical of others like him, turned to religion only to find that religion couldn't overcome his lust for musclemen. Royalty then settled on Mike Mentzer as the end all be all ideal of masculine perfection.

In Royalty's mind Mike was handsome, muscular and heterosexual (everything Royalty could never be) Royalty ultimately developed several pyschotic, emotional bonds with the ideal of mike mentzer: friend, brother, father figure and lover.

When it was revealed on Getbig that mentzer was a deeply flawed individual, who also suffered a mental collapse (at the hands of Arnold Schwarzenegger) who then debased and debauched himself to include "turning", becoming a homeless drug addict, being institutionalized, as well as plagiarizing the work of Arthur Jones. It was more than Royalty's soul could bare.

His subsequent conduct led to his own banishment from the forum. Men with greater self respect, self esteem, self awareness would've used that time to reflect before returning to the forum. But once again, the man who calls himself "Royalty" has proven to be nothing more than a fool of the court. Now his list of obsessions have grown to include small hands, a middle finger, imaginary gimmicks and,  most telling of all, delusional fantasies of sex with Paul Graham and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Would you be surprised ? Buy the DVD ?

 Would it hurt Arnold's bodybuilding legacy or simply make it more relevant for younger generation that would get to see Arnold in a bodybuilding contest in a more realistic approach than Pumping Iron  ?

You get the chance to talk to any old timer bodybuilder and they will talk about 5 mins about their glory/accomplishments then they will talk hours about those 5 mins they spent with Arnold lol.....ALL OF THEM

You are correct.  I do find it difficult to cope.

Coping mechanisms are all designed to help losers like you and mentzer.

For guys like Arnold and those of us used to winning,  we tend to find coping mechanisms lack in comparison to reality.

Maybe you can shed some light on what it's like to be a perennial fuck up?

I believe what we are witnessing here is Royalties slow spiral into madness.

Spending all of what's left of his precious life hammering away at the keyboard in an attempt to convince people he does not know that Mike Mentzer was the 1980 uncrowned Olympia champion and that Arnold was a dick smoker.

Facts are facts and cannot be denied.

Regardless of the demasculation of the current Arnold. He was the literal King of the 1970s and 80s. The man did more for action movies as a retired bodybuilder than any before as well as the sport of bodybuilding. He has done more for the sport than the Weiders combined, literally put it on the map.

This forum would not exist had Arnold decided to play soccer

The thing that gets me is that Mentzer was fifth.  It's not like he could claim first place. Arnold at 80% was still better than the rest there. If he arrived at his 1975, 74 or 73 condition we wouldn't be having this conversation cause no one would be remotely close. If anyone has a gripe it would be second place Chris Dickerson.

Look at Roy’s forearms... then look at Arnold’s
Look at Roy’s traps... then look at Arnold’s


The only area that Arnold wins is calves.


Roy placed 7th

Note: Arnold stepped forward in the lineup in an attempt to look bigger than the rest of the competitors. That’s why Roy is looking at Arnold’s feet.

Better yet if Arnold was a new guy that year, he would have won it with zero drama . think about it ? most whining is centered om him not being as good as previous years .....

Arnold disrespected his competition? Yes

Was the contest fixed?  It sure looks like it was .....  at least I honestly think so

was Arnold still the best man on stage that Oct 4th 1980?  yes

Does Arnold acts like if the 1980 Olympia never happened? yes

Roy should have beaten Mentzer

Mentzer can only manage 5th place? Also Zane’s physique was more pleasing, smaller waist , flows better and better condition. Mentzer was blocky, wider waist , has a “stubby” look to his overall structure. Makes him look shorter than he is

like a child - do you think Dorian is or would be remotely bothered
by what he says - NO he wouldn't so why would you ?

I don't get the incessant obession & carry on.

Any normal,  mature person understands this. Why the fuck would I, or anyone else, need to make up a gimmick?

No one on here knows me anyway.

Only an intellectually stunted (re:retarded) person would even presume this to be the case.

Royal-assclown is the worst gimmick on here. He's a total pussy, which is bad enough, but he's dumb as fuck too.

I *think* I remember you from IronAge.  I was also  there when that lunatic Abeles was trolling Serge Nubret.

You're cool in my book, bro.  And I know you're not that Rmj "Rimjob" dipshit; you converse on a far more intelligent level. 

I can't say I agree insofar as the site's worst gimmick, though.  Rimjob is as obnoxious as any, and Hankins...he might not be a "gimmick" as such, but he is insufferable.

2015...


If the remastered never before seen footage of the most controversial bodybuilding contest of all time is finally released., And all the comparison shots from the back shows Dickerson in better shape than Arnold, and all the booing after Arnold is called the winner is evident. 


Would you be surprised ? Buy the DVD ?

 Would it hurt Arnold's bodybuilding legacy or simply make it more relevant for younger generation that would get to see Arnold in a bodybuilding contest in a more realistic approach than Pumping Iron  ?

Around this same time, mike mentzer was homeless,  living in a gutter (not too far away from wear the video was shot), strung out on amphetamines and hobo cock. IIRC it was the result of his brutal owning in 1980 at the Sydney opera house.

Everyone loves to show this picture of Arnold,  probably the single worst competition photo of him ever, and yet if you look at a bodypart by bodypart comparison, Arnold is still bigger and better..

Even the legs, this is a side by side comparison, of an 'out-of-shape' Arnold. In this comparison,  you're telling me mentzers legs look so much better? Nah.

The thing was settled 44 years ago. The old saying is 'you can tell a lot about a person by the way they handle defeat' the only one who didn't act like a fucking child was Dickerson.

Yeah, it's subjective.  Him being that light was certainly a different look for him  but look at the striations in the chest. That's probably his lowest bf percentage ever.

I thought those pics over Sydney harbor were taken the day after the Olympia. I would say he looks fuller and leaner in these pics than he was on stage.

No doubt Royalty jerks off with an oversized oven mitt on.

No doubt. Whacking off, scheming how to get gullible Getbiggers to send him pictures of their hands...

"You want me to do what? Pose with a coffee cup? But.."

Roy "yeah, just do it. It's the only way I can be sure you are who you say you are..."

The unsuspecting Getbigger never questions how a picture of a coffee cup affirms their identity and nonetheless complies with the bizarre request...

And getbig's most prolific quirofile, the self styled "Royalty" misappropriates yet another picture to add to his collection.

Lol, fool! "Dear God" is a common everyday phrase you fucking idiot. What? You dont seriously think you coined the phrase? Do you? Please tell me that you think you're the first person to say that.... What a simpleton. 

Speaking of 'stealing pictures' youve stolen every pic you have.  We're all on to your sick little games and your hand fetish. Requesting pics of Getbiggers holding coffee cups, guaranteeing that you'll have a picture of their hand, so you can whack off to it later, like the pervy little gimp that you are...

Royalty,  you've gone all the way to failure, just like your hobo hero.

If the remastered never before seen footage of the most controversial bodybuilding contest of all time is finally released., And all the comparison shots from the back shows Dickerson in better shape than Arnold, and all the booing after Arnold is called the winner is evident. 


Would you be surprised ? Buy the DVD ?

 Would it hurt Arnold's bodybuilding legacy or simply make it more relevant for younger generation that would get to see Arnold in a bodybuilding contest in a more realistic approach than Pumping Iron  ?

And the irony is that on many occasions they were the same judges. Half of the judges in 1980 were the same ones that gave him a perfect score in the heavyweight class of the 1979 Olympia.

Exactly. The scoresheet from 1980 shows that it was pretty close between Arnold, Dickerson and Zane. Arnold may have had "friends" on the judges panel but not all of them had him in first place. He won yes but by a margin.

Arnold got booed by the audience after he was announced the winner. Quite a surprise since Arnold was popular in Sydney since he had posed here several times in the seventies. He wasn't happy about that and the MC urged the crowd to acknowledge the winner and eventually they did applaud Arnold. I had a gym member take a movie of the finals and presentations and he got so excited about Roger Walker being in the posedown that he kept stamping his feet and ruined the film. I still have that film and the audio should be there. Will see if I can retrieve the audio and post it here. This will be evidence about how loud and long the booing lasted.

Royalty is mistaken about no one thinking Arrnold deserved to win. Lots of people did. I wasn't surprised but I really didn't compare them like the judges did.

That claim that Arnold and Paul were sexually involved is preposterous.

Ok. Have two home gyms that I train in. Doing masters athletics in throwing so need to get stronger. The other guys my age have lost a lot of muscle. I managed to keep most of mine.

I won all the throws in the Australian Masters over 80 in 2023: Discus, Javelin, Shot Put, Hammer, Heavy Weight Throw, and Throws Pentathlon.

This year I had a torn hamstring from my first throw but ended up with two gold and 3 silver and a bronze.

The funny thing is, the more these 'total failures' bring up the 80 Olympia and the more pics I see, the more obvious it is that the right guy won.

Also hilarious is mentzer himself said it best when asked what is the best way to succeed in bodybuilding,  he said pick the right mother & father. LOL. Implying genetics,  structure, height,  shape, etc are all whats most important... and hence how an out of shape Arnold still easily beats mike manlet. Lol.

I think the official standing is Arnold won the show... Dickerson was 2nd, zane was 3rd.... Mentzer was all the way down in 5th.

What im dying to know is what became of mentzers 5th place trophy? Do you think it sat on his mantle collecting dust, a constant reminder of his failure? Looming over him, hanging like a rain cloud in a dimly lit apartment? To his dying day?

And with no descendants,  where did it end up? In the hands of a disgusting, schweaty, schmoe like john little or worse royalty?

Bevo, Humble Narcissist, Tacobender and Beakdoctor are “Dorian Cutler” aka “Goliathon”


Dangerous lunatic known as Army of One & Danimal77

Severe Bipolar Disorder. Lonely as fuck. Unemployable. Tiny Hands. Cannot ejaculate. Compulsive Liar. Photo Thief.

Often pretends to be a woman named “JustPlaneJane”

Most likely a registered sex offender. His Bevo account brags about how he spends his leisure time in public restrooms, leering at men’s genitals at the stand up urinals.

His “RMJ11” account once went on a 96 hour posting spree where he attacked Mike Mentzer non-stop. This RMJ11 account also claimed that he trained at Temple gym during Dorian’s reign.

This psychopath used to post under an account known as “Hulkster”. He claimed to be Ronnie’s biggest fan (until Ronnie ended up crippled). Hulkster rarely posts now.

LOL, calm down weirdo.... Better be careful or you will end up like your hero, dead before the age of 50, sitting in a beat up recliner, alone with no one to pass your worthless trinkets on to.

(Actually,  other than the dead before 50 part, you already are a lot like your hero. Loser with a head full of paranoid delusions)

Royalty puts a lot of stock into what the most bitter losers in the history of the sport say. This is a very attractive argument for Royalty because: Royalty = bitter loser.

The majority of the judges all said that Arnold won the show and mike was a distant 5th. This is what is reflected as the record of fact. Very easy to understand.

It is commendable to have a sunken chest in an era of great chests. Even worse, standing next to Roy Callender, who had amazing chest development, even when in a relaxed pose.

Let’s not forget Arnold’s “relationship” with 1980 Olympia promoter Paul Graham.



Mentzer annihilated Arnold on stage.

If Arnold takes a step back, and stands directly next to Mike....  it would get a lot worse for Arnold 😂

This ain’t even close

Yes 💯 percent. Not only dwarfing yet far superior esthetics, muscle separation, posing, charisma the whole package.
Arnold clearly destroyed the weak little men of 1980.
In fact the first thing he destroyed was their will. Just at his announcement that he was to compete broke them and what ever will they had to win.
In effect they lost before they put their little posing trunk on.
If they where so damn good they would not have complained before the show started when he announced his entry. They would have been like...."ok good luck with that".
I stead they all got emotional and cried like bitches

You can make an argument for Arnold not winning but Mentzer wasn't winning the show at all. People were shocked to see Arnold less than his former glory but the whole thing everyone doesn't understand is if Arnold did lose and decided to train fully and come back like he did in 1974 NO ONE in that line-up is beating him at all! I personally think he was good enough to win , I wasn't there and only basing it off of pictures and limited poor quality video clips though so maybe he did deserve to lose but it is what it is Arnold got the Sandow

No one remembers it because its another delusion you just made up. And to be clear, no one considers anything you say to be "comedy gold."

I remember when your stupidity got you banned from Getbig and everyone laughed their asses off at what a fool you are.

True. If Arnold lost in 80 this would've made him come back next year with a serious prep and destroy the competition. The thing is no one from that era could've stop him if he wanted to win more Olympias.

Yes, your right .Arnold could have gone right up to 1984 barring possible injuries. Fact is he was not driven to go that long. He had no desire to win more than 5
Olympias.
He was convinced to enter the 75 for Pumping Iron which meant exposure for his acting goals. Which proved very beneficial for him
He entered the 1980 not because he wanted another Sandow.
He entered because he wanted to silence Mike Mentzer for his criticism towards Arnold and Joe Weider. Not to mention it would help promote his Conan movie.
I remember this contest well when it happened as well as the aftermath. You did not hear much from Mentzer until he got exposure from his revitalized career in his Heavy Duty years later.

Mike Mentzers claim to fame is his competing in the 1980. Had he not done so nobody would know who he was.
His fans think he should have won because he had a perfect score of 300 prior at a Universe contest
Well Mentzer claimed the system was rigged and corrupt
How do you think his competitors at his 300 score universe felt about that. Was his Universe contest rigged as well?
Or does his narrative only fit when it applies to his losing?
Mike was a weak champion. One whom felt cheated when he thought so highly of himself. He thought he was going to just walk on stage and be guaranteed a win.
Mike in his best condition was not good enough to beat Arnold at his worse.

No. CBS didn't end up sending a crew. The only camera crew there was following Arnold for a documentary.  And that's that.

That's a lot to unpack and speculation at best.
Your assumption that Netflix had a desire to make Arnold look bad is hillarious. They showcase his series as well as movies.
Why would they wish to take issue with him regarding what the general public considers a circus sport, yet know Arnold for his action movies as well as his work in charities,  politics and much more.
Your literally grasping at straw here.
Nobody but thong worshipers know of the 1980 Olympia

Because CBS are such experts in judging contests. ::)
They were told so by the crying bitches Mike and Boyer...

There were many who were there and said Arnold deserved to win, including Wayne Gallash, Joe Gold, John Terrilli, Robert  Nailon, Danny Padilla, Roy Callendar, Bill Reinolds, Bill Drake, Jorge Butler etc, etc.

Half of the judges in 1980 were the same ones that gave Mentzer a perfect score in the heavyweight class of the 1979 Olympia. Yet, no one had Mike first in 1980. They either had Arnold or Dickerson winning. Not a single judge voted for Mentzer.

Arnold stomped a hole so deep in mentzers ass that he never ever recovered and over the course of the next 20 years mentzer disgraced himself, shriveled up worse than your penis, and slowly died..... best known as a guy who lost to Arnold....

Which is still better than you, a guy best known for your desperate search for semen stained pants.

Arnold looks amazing here, no question he won the 1980.

Arnold went on to become an author,  highest paid and biggest block buster action star of near 2 decades, became a govoner,  fucked a Kennedy,  then a maid...his seed is so potent he created another Conan
He now seeks a better world 🌎 via green technology, ever looking for the next challenge and goal. This terminator machine just keeps crushing his enemies.

He could lay back on his Billion dollar empire and smoke his stogies.....but no he just keeps finding new goals to crush. Love him or hate him.. he is a get bigger on the highest level

Arnold wins every mandatory, from the side everyone disappears next to him, no depth. His back is proper wide in that rls but he didn't place his hands infront so it made his arms look long and distracting.
No ones calves looked as good from the back, no one was good enough to beat him.

If by original you mean a deep dive into paul grahams underwear, you are correct. But that's where you come in.

The hair on his temples horizontal from him pulling the remaining strands out... staring into his monitor. Trying to figure what to say next.... the only words that pop into his mind are: dry hump & semen. He slams his palm into his forehead and screams "Think for fucks sakes! Think!"

Slowly his palm slides over to the hair on his temporal lobe and he begins to pull until another lock is stripped from his scalp....

I know you're IQ is extraordinarily limited, but even you can't be that obtuse?

Lets look back to New Years Eve. You were a lonely,  sexually frustrated and repressed schmoe living at home, building up an ager towards me, for apparently laughing at jokes about mike mentzer.  This anger boiled over into a hatred and an obsession that ejaculated all over the forum in a way you never could with a woman. You spewed one dumbfuck post after the next about me... each one less comical and more impotent than your limp penis.

You're an embarrassment.

Not once have I complained to the mods, or created a thread about you. (Maybe one thread, but I came to my senses,  realizing how pathetic you are, i did not want to stink up the forum the way you've continued to do for 8 months now)

8 months... holy hell.

If your real life existence even remotely approaches your online persona, you are the biggest bitch I have ever encountered. You should do your parents a favor and find an extension cord to wrap around your neck as tight as your weak bitch-ass hands will allow until the rest of your body is as limp as your dick. Then you can be buried next to your fellow fa66ot loser mike mentzer. (You will finally find evidence Paul Grahams elusive semen buried deep in mikes skull) which is the only skull you're ever going to get, loser.

Even in the 2 cherry ppickedpictures when Arnold is standing with slumped shoulders and the other standing relaxed comparison with him flexing his abs/obliques. They're the worst ever pictures of him in a contest and he's still so much bigger than every one. His chest is carrying 3 X as much mass as manletzers.

The more pics that are posted; not only am I certain manletzer didn’t deserve to win, he probably didn't deserve 5th either. Zane, Coe, Dickerson ate all clearly better but so is Callender, Walker and Tinerino.

Why is Paul Graham wearing Arnold’s pants??


Royalty is premenstrual again. Obsessing over Mr. Paul Graham (The wildly successful promoter of the most talked about Mr. Olympia in history) and hunger cravings for his 40 year old semen.

Royalty,  once again, you prove yourself to be a lying sack of shit. You low down, despicable,  dishonest, heaping pile of stinking shit.

Trying to bring your sordid fantasies about Mr. Graham to life by creating a make believe world in which you "find" his semen.... sick. Such rotten shameful behavior.  Lying about a man all for your own cheap self-gratification! Disgusting.!

Arnold is bi-sexual and he lived with Paul Graham. “More than friends”

After Paul Graham pulled the pants off of Arnold (prior to prejudging) he ironed the legendary pants and wore the pants to the night show.


That means the “dry hump” took place in the evening. 


Arnold’s pants had a busy day.


Graham then used the Calgon to lift the semen stain off of said pants.

Arnold’s pants were like Mike Katz’s shirt in ‘Pumping Iron’.

Arnold won big in life, he has kids that will continue on the “Schwarzenegger” name while mentzer is dead, his brother is dead, their bloodline dead. Some people just have it all while others are shit out of luck

Arnold got fucked in the ass by Paul Graham and Joe Weider. That lifestyle carried over into Hollywood


Congratulations Arnold

The crowd was going wild for Arnold. People were clapping and cheering. He recieved a standing ovation.

Meanwhile mentzer received ridicule for his poor display of sportsmanship. He stomped off the stage, then meekly returned only to accept his 5th place award (free parking validation at the Sydney Opera House and an autographed 8X10 glossy of Arnold Schwarzenegger)

Royalty continues to create mentzer fan fiction, like all of his other accusations- just a figment of his twisted imagination.

Royalty's just a filthy lying whore.

Not only did Arnold beat mentzers weak ass but the 1981 version of Franco would've too.

If Mike's tried his finger-pointing 'tough guy" stunt that he pulled in Sydney, Franco would've obliterated him.

Thats why mike walked away in shame. He new he just wasn't good enough.

Unable to stand on his own convictions mentzer tried to persuade zane, coe and others to 'quit' also. They joined mike at first. But once they saw what a loser he was, they distanced themselves from the stench of hobo mike. They quietly returned to the IFBB, turning the other cheek when mike was disgracing himself in the gutter outside of Golds gym, flopping around like a dying fish...... Figures hes your idol.

Around the time mike was finally institutionalized, he would repeatedly accuse Arnold,  Paul Graham and the Weiders of being gimmicks. It was the most shocking and flagrant sign of his mental deterioration.
