There was a crazy shot of him doing the front double biceps in the gym, too lazy to find it. Very underrated bodybuilder, another uncrowned Mr. O.

Didn't he win the "tall" Mr Olympia a few times? Either way, if it isn't the best, it's up there for sure.

Hard to argue against it seeing that shot.

Very good arms. Also good back. But the rest of him was not up to par. Even himself admitted he never had any legs...

Robby was being too hard on himself. His legs matched his upper body and the legs of the day. Robby was the Chris Cormier of the golden era.

That third pic was from when Robby guest posed at the 1977 AAU Mr. America in Santa Monica, California. He was HUGE there. I got into bodybuilding in 1977 and every month in Muscle Builder magazine, Robby looked like he was getting bigger and harder. I thought he was going to be an easy winner at the Mr. Olympia that year.

It's a real picture. I scanned that picture from Joe Weider's Mr Olympia book and posted on forum last year

Robinson whooping ass on both Christian and Haney here.  Robbie is one of the all time greats.  Superb arms too.  I think the Oak has him in the arms race but Arnold had everybody where that was concerned.  

Haney sucks here.  But then he should not have won 8 Olympias at all.  Maybe 5 max.  I can hear his royal hebroness whining now...
