Mentzer couldn't even beat Zane the prior year even though he won the Heavyweight class.

He didn't use enough meth for the 79 show. He would correct that in 80......a little too much.

Natural O is finally interviewing Arnold for his Legends show. He's putting them up on YouTube in 20 minute segments.  Arnold talks about this incident. He said he knew Mike from the gym and knew he was easily rattled and prone to losing his temper. He knew Mike would get so flipping livid that he'd lose his focus. So he made the 'big gut' comment.



At the 25 minute mark.

Insightful interview, pure bodybuilding, Arnold's memory is second to none.  The pictures accompanying look great on the big screen

 Ive posted in it. Ive made it clear that thread is nonsense.  Nothing more than you and royalty stroking each others fantasies, creating homoerotic fiction.

Mentzer never looked this good. Nobody on stage at the 80 Olympia did. Maybe Tinnerino came close. The closest Mike did was in 78 at that USA vs the World competition. Thats the contest with the head on shot of Mentzer standing relaxed. Thats about the best Mike ever looked that and the most muscular he's hitting, I think he was standing on muscle rock.

Retired from bodybuilding.

 Beats getting buggered by some gutter punk and drinking piss. But hey, maybe that's what you prefer.

Perfect physique right there. Millions were inspired to lift by those outdoor Sydney pics.

^^^ Mentzer looked at the photo for years, tears in eyes, screaming at the top of his lungs "ARNOLD!!!!!!! WHY...WHY DID YOU HAVE TO COME OUT OF RETIREMENT? THE 1980 OLYMPIA WAS MINE.....MINE.....MINE!!!"
