you cant compare those 2, exactly apples and oranges. But it would have made a sweet olympia in 77 if lou had such with it.

btw, Lou was planning to enter the 1995 master O. around 340 pounds !!!!
but ended up retiring thanks to Carla (his wife)

He was 325 at the 93 mr.O and took 10th

At the 94' masters he was around 295 or so trying to look "ironAge" and took the runner up.


here's a clip of lou in 1995 weighting around 335 pounds,  enjoy If u haven't seen it.

In Mr.O 1974 Columbu (apple) beated Zane (orange)

and one of the biggest battles in Mr.O history : Lee vs. Lee!!  Haney and Labrada...apples and oranges as well
but still good bb, and we know the results there too.

Gaspari should have beaten Haney in 1987, regardless of Haney's mass and superior structure.  Rich was 222 at 5'8 and 1/2 and as dry as can be.  Apples and oranges.

Don't get excited, you'll give yourself a stroke.
Ferrigno was a mass monster for his time. Zane was a all asthetics and definition. Thats like comparing Amhed Haidar to Ronnie or Jay.

but with Haidar,Ronnie and Jay we know the results everytime they step on stage,

So in your humble opinion..........

Between Zane and Ferrigno,




Who    would     win??


Thank you SOOOOO much.

By angle does he mean Sergio's layer of fat that he always sported ??? ???


He def got a few gifts in his day especially after he left the I.F.B.B. in the 70's.

Sergios best conditioning was training with Arthur Jones he never surpassed his 72MrO conditioning had he stayed with Jones the history books might have had another slant.
