Arnold finally reveals how he won the 1980 Mr Olympia

Meanwhile, Mentzer didnt bother consulting the judges and spent his time guzzling coca-colas.

Probably so. Remember in '79 Mentzer had a perfect score as a heavyweight yet smoothed out and lost in the final pose down to Zane.

LMAO

Had Mentzer consulted the judges he'd be surprised how many competitors gave the Heavy Duty a run for his money besides the Oak .

Tinnerrino and Callender felt they were heavily overlooked in 1980. but didn't cry their whole lives on it ,

WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH 10.4.80

According to Bill Pearl , Chris was robbed from the Olympia tittle both 1980 and 1981...

While Arnold held a massive advantage in chest and overall mass, Dickerson was lauded for his balance, posing,more dense and conditioning.

Chris himself told Bill Pearl it was more evidence on the CBS footage which he had the pleasure to watch alongside Boyer and Zane.
