The scores. It was close between the top 3 but no signs of a fix. Arnold won but barely.

Arnold winner. Meth head loser.

All the times I've seen that shot, and never noticed that's not a dog-tag around his neck - it's a fucking key-ring LOL

Anyone know the reason why Wells looks so unhappy/uncomfortable in this shot please..?

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.

Please tell me that's a cut-and-paste from somewhere?  Did you write that?

If you did it's a mini-masterpiece 👏👏👏

If anything Arnold got into shape pretty quick to his credit and by then modern conditioning had progressed past his last mro win,other than his legs being so so ,only his chest his awesome side chest actually was down too but in these last pics you can see his delts were more pronounced and arms looked good as well,he looke more balanced that pre 80 ,where he was all chest …his rear db bi pose looked great.

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

[njflex]

TINERINO had a great frame ,he was one of the greats .

[Rmj11]

Who's owning who ?

TINERINO for sure.

Enough said

Mentzer wins the quads, abs, calves, biceps and forearms

[Royalty]

Arnold has zero triceps

Mentzer might be winning that shot... Arnold is leaning way back to far.

In no way does Mike win in this shot. Mike's abdominal wall is protruded and surpasses his flat chest, clearly destroying any semblance to symmetry

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.

Mentzer won the the pose

Meth head mentzer Olympia record stands at ZERO WINS.
He was a hell of a pill popping, piss drinking, running naked through the streets nut job though. Also the fat hand with the stubby fingers is indicative to an individual with a small brain and short penis. Seek help

You’re still sobbing like a bitch 😂

[Eric2]

I'm laughing at the idiots that buy into the HIT culture. Like some religious fanatics with Methzner as their deity. Show us the HIT Champs. Mike Meltzer died at a mere 49years of age due to a small weak mind. A shame as had he sought help he may have been able to be a productive genius.

Everyone is laughing at your Santa’s little elf hand

Mike definitely had bigger arms and shoulders
