Jusup who was 6th

Dickerson

Ed Corny Mr-Pumping-Iron himself !!

Roy again

Another Pumping Iron alumni Mike Katz

Mr Dead-Last Jorma Raty

Jusup & Dennis

Not to mention in that pic with Danny Franco and Tom, Padilla is the only one who is executing the lat spread effectively.

Danny again
awsome shot, thanks ND...it's very hard to find pics from this show....hmmmmm, I wonder why???

Nice to see those pics. Reminded of the travesties that led to departures of the best guys. '82 was no better than '81 or '80; Padilla lost to both Columbu & Dickerson.
it's very hard to find pics from this show....hmmmmm, I wonder why???
Just a coincidence.. ::)
-
The Late Johnny Fuller
Look at his torso !
he must be cousin with Dexter Jackson
-
Tom Platz was way better than Padilla
Danny very well could have presented the best ever body under 200lbs at that show..Platz was great but his upper body had still not even come close to his legs...
-
Roger Walker again
-
Look at the expression >:(
-
Franco - ugly chest, horrible right gyno, shitty legs
Platz was disproportionate
It was Padilla's show

seems to me Danny got shafted.

The winner

Dickerson

-
Roy again
-
Carlos Rodriguez
-
[quoteFranco - ugly chest, horrible right gyno, shitty legs
Platz was disproportionate
It was Padilla's show][/quote]
It is impossible that he was the world's best-built man in either Olympia he won. No wonder Padilla gave up!
-
Danny looks outstanding in this shot
-
Tom Again
-
Mr last-place again
-
Another Pumping Iron alumni , Ken Waller he should have stole Katz shirt again and gave it to Franco to cover-up the gyno .

Samir Bannout

franco again
-
Again
-
Franco
-
I'd be happy to if I just stole a Sandow !! and thats all she wrote for pics .
-
Surprised they didn't have any back shots of Franco, That was his strongest bodypart and he dwarfed all of those guys in the lat spread.
Padilla looked great though, Platz was never a factor, his legs were just to big for his body ... they actually cared a little about symmetry back then.
Thanks for the pics though.
-
at least with the 1980 contest, people are either 'for' or 'against' Arnold. but for 1981 NO ONE argues on behalf of Franco. and i shall adhere to that tradition.
platz rules.
-
Overall i would say Franco had the best upperbody but his legs really held him back, if his legs were atleast striated and ripped i would say he fully deservred to win but not by a large margine.

agreed. Franco looked good considering what he had gone through but he was outclassed at this show. One could argue for Padilla, Platz or a couple of other guys. Plus you have to remember that alot of top guys boycotted this show because of the 80 fiasco. Throw in Zane, Coe and even Metzer and you've got one hell of a brew ha ha.

Some boycotted because of the questionable judging, eventually most of the very best ones left the IFBB without many greats for a few years. Yet this bozo claims the contests are 100% legit-exactly what an Iron Age clone would say. hahahhhahah
-
Roger Walker looking small
Roger had gyno too.
-
All Franco had was chest and back thickness. I would of went with padilla and then Platz and then maybe franco.
-
Carlos Rodriguez
The late Carlos Rodriguez.
-
Hubert Metz
Metz, was another guy with gyno. 1981 Must have been the year of bitch tits.
-
Danny with a textbook front double bicep shot , it doesn't get better than this .
Danny should have won. I would have given Tom Platz second.
-
Good God! Look at the gyno on this soryy sack :o

Pumpster. Sometimes you act like you have a brain but most times your fucking clueless. Most people on Ironage think the 1980 and 1981 Olympia's were a joke. How many people on Getbig were even old enough to remember 1980 and 1981? Most people at Ironage do remember those years. Yet by your logic the people on Getbig who weren't even born have a better view of the 1980 and 1981 Olympia's than the people at Ironage who actually remember the contests?

Metz beat Ray Mentzer for the Universe in 1980. That ruined Ray's career.

Franco has shitty arms, he had bitch tit so that ruined his chest. That don't leave much of an upper body imho.
-
Look at Walker's gyno. It actually looks sore.

Synthol nips ::)
-
Whoever said it first, I totally concur, that was one horrible lineup. I always rooted for Waller, he was always thick, but he looks like total shite here. He should have retired already. Franco, although powerfully built, did not have what I consider a championship bodybuilding physique. You know it's a shitty lineup when not one guy looks not just good but amazing. There were a couple guys here that looked good but nobody looked amazing. By default only I would have gone with Padilla.
-
ND, do you have more pics of Callendar ?

This is Roy from the 1984 Mr Olympia
-
Roy
-
Alot of folks say Callender should have won...so now you have people saying Roy, Danny or Tom..but hardly anyone says Franco...hmmmmmmmmmm.
-
Roy again
-
damn he had a great chest.
I see him around a lot and at 64, he still has monster legs :o
-
The man
-
Franco looks horrible in every shot compared to his competition. Looks like he should have placed third or something. All he had was lats and chest. thats it.

And Gyno like Ronnie in 98 ;)

please...not again....save it for the other thread guys.....don't ruin this one...please...
-
This Olympia should of went to Tom, in my opinion he was solely robbed.
-
its kinda sad how franco and ESPECIALLY waller look like they aged 20 years between 1975 and 1981....
id say dickerson then platz.
-
I think he's turning 66 in August actually.
http://musclememory.com/show.php?a=Callendar,+Roy
???
Well I think it ain't right cause I remember saying him happy birthday at the end of september last year If I remember right.
I wasn't a that gym in august. HE told me he was 64 so maybe he lied ;D
-
sometimes he is sympatic but I think he is clearly delusional about modern day bodybuilding.
the other day he was explaining to me that It should only take me 4 years to become a pro bber ( I am 18 ).
So I asked him, how am I supposed to gain pro level size in 4 years ?!
he said: " Listen kid, at your age I was mr.universe and training with arnold in california ! Look at the bodyfitness girls that I train, next year they will win the canadians and get a pro card" ( those girls barely won a regional level show )
-
The man
damn, that 2nd shot is pretty awsome....
-
Padilla has NO quad sweep and a very goofy, strange look on his face in all the shots.
-

well, he's totally shredded..I think it's ok to give up a little sweep to come in in that condition. I actually remember reading that the judges marked him down for being drawn in the face...no that's being a little nitpicy.

Thats a piss poor excuse why judges placed Padilla so low. Since when does a face have to do with a physique contest?

I agree.
Padilla had the best overall package in 81. He should've won that contest, IMO of course
-
Noone was a worthy Mr.O that year, except Danny maybe, but he is like 5.2 or something, not that it should matter, but apparantly it did, or a feud with you Weider but I dont know. He was smaller than usual at tha contest too, I think he said he ate 40 grams of protein "to try something new".
Franco has a wierd body. He looks very massive in some shots, esp from the back. His upper chest might be the best ever. That said I think he has the astetics of a fridge and awful awful looking legs, sweep? cuts? anybody? I think he did leg extentions only for that contest after that accident in 1977 that held him back from training legs at all for quite some time.
Overall you really have to knock almost all the guys lack of leg development. You could not win a novice contest with that now. They can not have given their legs more effort then 3 sets of squats, a few sets of legextensions and at tops some leg curls on that. ed Corney could not do more than 8 reps with 3 plates in Pumping Iron and had to lie down on the floor and weep after that. Thats incredibly weak pondage. Guys today do that for their warmup.

weren´t they 100 pound plates?
-
No that was regular ass plates bro.
-
Agree everyone there but platz had weak legs.
-
I think it's important to remember that in the 70's up until platz came along big legs were not as important as they are today. Basically it was all about the upper body. It was only after guys like Platz and belknap came along that eveyone said "hey, look at that...I gotta get me some of those" calves were always important because of the old theory that if you had good delts, abs and calfs you were halfway there but thighs and especially hams were not the be all end all that they are today.

1. Padilla
2. Callender
3. Platz
4. Dickerson
5. Columbu
6. Bannout,
I would place them like this.
Dickerson really had the worst arms of any Mister Olympia, Franco the worst legs ever. If Franco didn`t stop competing in 1976 and didn`t break his leg he could have been a legit Mr. Olympia in 1976-1979.

Viking:
That are good placements. I would place them identically.
