I see a lot of people saying Lee could have come back for a ninth win in 1992.
Maybe, but I disagree with their reasoning. They say shit like, "Oh, Haney would have come in even bigger" and the like.
That makes no sense to me. Lee tried competing in the high 250s in 88 or 89, and he was criticized for losing definition.
Dorian beat Lee in the muscularity round in 91. So, Haney was magically going to get back to well over 250 and get way more cut to win in 92, after many years of coming in with roughly the same form?
Doz added maybe five pounds of stage weight for 92, but he was arguably leaner than before, and lost muscle to achieve that condition. He knew no top guy could match his size (242ish?), but he also wanted to be sure he was shredded beyond even the likes of smaller guys like Levrone, Ray, Taylor and Labrada. Had he known Haney was coming back, he could have retained roughly comparable condition but not dieted off the mass needed to match Lee at 248-250.
Thoughts, apart from how I'm a thong-sniffing schmoe? ;) (I'm really not, apart from Tuesday evenings. That's when I set up my shrine to Ken Sprague and that big, tattooed guy who recently died, Chris Duffy. At least, I think he died?)
;)
-
Lee Haney was at his all time best in 1991. He said this was the only Olympia he actually peaked the day of the contest , He was 249lbs. If he could replicate that compared to Dorian in 1992 he could beat him again. Dorian in 1991 was 239lbs and in 1992 he was 242lbs. Haney did compete in 1989 at 257lbs and he said his conditioning suffered for it. No version of Haney is beating Dorian in 1993. Haney retired in the best shape of his life ( No Mr Olympia after him can say that ) and broke Arnold's record. He had nothing to gain.
-
One of those years Haney "was criticized for losing definition" they were doing drug testing at the Mr O or some other similar BS. Everyone looked worse "definition" wise those years.
Haney retired pretty young. He was like 2 or 3 years older than Dorian and 4 or 5 years older than Ronnie. Assuming he was willing to embrace the chemical game similar to those guys he could have almost certainly added more size.
Also if their kidneys don't blow up then Black bodybuilder also tend to peak (size and conditioning wise) slightly older. Blacks peak mid 30s and into early 40s. White bodybuilders peak around late 20s to mid 30s.
If Haney had the desire and retardation he could have absolutely kept going throughout the 90s and maybe into the 00s

Yates said that when he heard that Haney was not going to compete in 1992, he (Yates) decided to not come in as big as possible. He just focused on conditioning.
If Haney did not decide to retire, and Haney entered the show in 1992, Yates said that he would’ve come in as big as possible to battle Haney’s mass.
-
In many ways Dorian was Haney 2.0, similar with a big back and smallish arms. Everything that made Dorian great Haney had and better. A better taper and much better flow to his physique. Also Olympia judges are notorious for awarding the sandow again and again to the same guy as long as he isn't getting blown out like we saw in 2006 with Ronnie and his atrophied left lat and arm.
I don't think Dorian would have won in 1992 and had he lost who knows what 1993 would have brought. Whatever Dorian was doing or taking in 1993 In theory Haney could have done as well. Also keep in mind Haney never really touched his potential yet Dorian definitely leaked in 93. He never looked improved beyond.
-
Haney would have beaten Dorian in 92, 93 not a chance.
-
The most admirable thing about Haney was knowing when to retire ... he is the most dominant /respected Olympian ever for many reasons .... coming back after breaking Arnold's record (which seemed impossible at the time) to see if he could beat a "newcomer" wouldn't have make any sense.
WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LEVRONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
-
Haney was a great champion but..Dorian was in another league & Haney knew it & left the stage

I don't see how Haney would have improved much.
His shape would be compromised, and he would not be in the same condition at a higher weight.

100% grape & to get bigger he would have to go one step higher which was too risky for him health wise. Haney is a clever man too

Haney retired because he knew Yates was the future. The 91 O was only Dorian's 3rd pro contest. He probably would have beaten Haney in 92 and would have destroyed him in 93.

Haney won his first O in 1984, as he kept on winning, he then wanted to beat Arnold's record ..... worrying about Dorian is like if he had a crystal ball to see the future and wanted to keep at it forever or until falling apart like Ronnie Coleman .
WooooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Let´s not forget people like Haney & Dorian competed against a field of top Bodybuilders, Arnold won at least one Olympia because no one else was present! or it was just a few people

He made his impact in the history of bodybuilding no doubt. Leaving in 92 was perfect timing because Ray, Wheeler and Levrone were on their way up along with Yates. Things would have gotten much tougher to crack the top three.

You have to take in to account historical context, when Arnold won unposed he was like a 24 year old kid and the Olympia was a 5-yea rold contest,( not a big deal at the time ) most NABBA top contenders Universe Mr. World etc didnt want to risk their traditional tittles /status at the time to lose to some youngster at a Weider show that didn't mean anything for those "legends" . Yes, Arnold 71 was in a class of his own, alone on stage or with the top 10 bbers at that time (maybe Oliva could have bitten him).
WooooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Utter Rubbish Arnold didn´t want to face Pearl

Haney was at his all time best in 91 because he knew he had to be after seeing Yates at the NOC
he left no stone unturned in 91 so much so his wife said that she would never let him go through that again, what she meant by that could be guessed at.
Haney got out with his health intact , he was smart.. he was also the most respected of any bodybuilder among his peers

haney was the best representative for the sport of bodybuilding all around imo... best in the game, well spoken, preached hard training and diet... had the mindset of a "champion".. just like jordan, brady, kobe ect... i loved those saturday morning workouts as a kid on tv.. watching haney make 40lb db flys look hard lol, talking shit the whole time.

Haney and Yates where both smart with there health after they retired unlike that big retard Ronnie Coleman who is crippled now and definitely has brain damage from his opioid abuse
Haney got out early now you have idiots destroying themselves In there 40s like Samson

aparently he got a crsh weight gain 6pack and. a dynamic muscle builder 4 pack from argos used them for 12 weeks and took 2x anabolic mega packs (weider) and abottle of liquid aminos a day.
apparently sirley said the bathroom pan looked like an IRA cell wall 5 or 6 times a day. and stunk like a 3 month corpse.
-
After the contest he wrote about his approach. He felt he needed to eat 2 whole eggs a day to maintain mass. He also went running for cardio, felt any bodybuilder should be able to do it. So there you have the secrets.

ND as you know, Lee Haney raised Levrone’s arm after he was announced the overall winner of the 1991 Nationals. Shortly afterwards, Haney said that Levrone was the future of the sport.

There it is. I remember when that pic was in the magazine. That was about 6 weeks after the 1991 Mr Olympia.
I believe: the threat of Yates, and the potential of Levrone, were factored into Haney’s decision to retire.
-
Haney was just at the cusp of the high dose GH plus insulin plus high test revolution.
If he'd had a madman like Chad circa 95-00 advising him for 93 he could have added considerable muscle I think. The products were there but like the GH still wasn't used at optimal amounts, very expensive too. Then the Genotropin started flowing in Europe and guys like Yates took advantage.
Haney was a magical physique to me as a kid. Down to his skin texture, he projected uniquely.

This may, or may not be true....
Yates said in an interview that he didn’t use insulin until 1997 (his final year)
In 1997 he was about 20lbs heavier than he was in 1996.
It’s just unfortunate that Yates tore his tricep during the prep for the 1997 Olympia.
Ronnie Coleman said that Yates would’ve won in 1998 if Yates had competed. But seriously, Yates had damage to his left bicep and to his left tricep. Dorian probably would’ve had a significant injury heading into the 1998 show (torn lat or a torn pec).
Yates was smart to step away when he did.

YATES WAIST LOOKED BIGGER DUE TO IT 97..

Haney was smart which is why he is still healthy and looks good today. Yates and Coleman not so much.

I’m pretty sure Haney meant G4P and not insulin

He looks like shit though. Half his body is torn muscles.

The effective insulin use really only began in like 94 with Milos. I think he was just giving an excuse as to why not go on, "the sport's just got crazy!" I think he made the perfect choice on when to retire. Insulin btw would have been the least deleterious part of a stack. Yates blamed it for his waist in 97 though but I don't know what he did exactly. Ronnie's waist got way out of control and he used insulin for several years, but getbiggers now look back and admire him despite the gut.

HOLD ON BECKLES HAD AN INSULIN issue in about 89

:D

his muscle popped, really jumped off the bone… top tier structure.
there was also a compact/dense/dynamic quality about his musculature that suggested function - projecting the appearance of actual athleticism - if not super human ability.
that kind of thing captures the imagination...

This thread was started because this bum named “Titus Pullo” saw that ND and I were having an intelligent conversation about Haney and Yates (in other thread)
This “Titus Pullo” moron decided to make his own long-winded thread.
Of course he completely checked out after he made the thread. He just vanished. He doesn’t have anything to say or add since then.
The empty person behind that account just recycles information that he reads from me, ND, or other knowledgeable bodybuilding people.
-
I feel like just like Arnold, Haney wanted to retire because years of steroid abuse can't be good for your health, that's why they retire
-
IF Lee had competed in 92 Dorian would've Likely beaten him.
And Lee knew it.

In Germany I believe
I remember he took lasix he got off another competitor think they were his usual 5mg tabs, they turned out to be 40mgs
He said if he had been anywhere else than Germany (on the European Grand Prix) where the health service is so good he might well have died

A completely ridiculous stacked HW class (not in the pic because they finished outside the top 5 for the HW finals were Cicherillo, Chris Cormier and Edgar Fletch). And waiting in the wings in another year were Dennis Newman and Mike Francois. Just nuts.
Lest we forget, the LHW class was stacked too in 91. Porter Cottrell won his Pro Card, beating future pros Daryl Stafford, John Simmons, John Sherman, and shoulda-been-pro-Beau-Matlock.
Absolutely nuts, the level of competition at that show.

I happen to think LeRoy Haney is the GOAT.

ND as you know, Lee Haney raised Levrone’s arm after he was announced the overall winner of the 1991 Nationals. Shortly afterwards, Haney said that Levrone was the future of the sport.
I’m sure Lee actually wanted to raise Levrone’s cock instead

note the difference in lat- mass
like Dorian, Lee dominated from the back.

prime Haney would dethrone the current Mr Olympia
-
When Levrone hit the scene, Haney said that Levrone would dominate the sport. Haney also felt that Vince Taylor would be up there too.
Levrone showed up: destroyed Mohammed Beneziza, Vince Taylor, Lee Labrada, and Shawn Ray. Only Yates could stop him.
Levrone would shock peywith those early visits to Los Angeles, Levrone was an unknown freak.

Love this comparison by the way!
I know its different lighting and all...but to my eye, Wheeler is more aesthetically proportioned (and a tad more conditioned) than Levrone. A prime Wheeler beats a prime Levrone, always (my opinion). Maybe the judges didn't always see it that way, but that's opinions for you.
The above said, I can't see either of those two guys, in those conditions, beating the version of Haney beside them in the pic. Haney has a shorter torso, which conveys a more extreme X-frame (when compared to Levrone). Haney's lats and small waist just overwhelm Levrone. And though Levrone has ridiculous arms, because of their shape, they don't seem to compare extremely favorably to Haney (though they do beat his). I see Haney beating Levrone in this pose easily.
I also see Haney beating Wheeler. Wheeler's arms really do beat Haney handily. And Wheeler's midsection gives no ground to Haney. But Haney annihilates Wheeler in chest width and thickness, hits lats do likewise, and Haney's natural clavicular width makes Wheeler look narrow. This one is closer, but Haney still wins the pose.
ND - great comparison shot!

Thanks again for describing the pictures to us all.

I got to hand it to royalty , he’s been schmoeing it up with bbers since the 80’s, that’s dedication
Wonder if he’s been in the pump up oil rooms? The glistening, bulged up thongs, hard ripped bodies walking around, what a sight to see
