Did this really happen? I heard Lee was 5'6'' in his prime (possibly 5'4'' nowadays though)

If Labrada was 5’0 here, then certainly Shawn Ray was 4’3

Someone here read one of Dorian’s newer books. In the book, Yates said that Labrada was going behind his back, complaining to the judges about that tatoo’s that Yates had....


...Apparently the judges went back to Dorian and told him that Labrada was pestering them 😂

Camera angle. Labrada is a few inches shorter than Ray.

Mr O should be 6 foot. Otherwise it is embarrassing.

Yates said it on his documentary  they did, "The First Mass Monster" watched it yesterday (Free on Prime if you are a member)..

Good to see his kid not living up to the original expectation. After hearing Lee was a "whiny teller" fuck them...  :D

This would eliminate almost all winners including Haney and Yates.

It was in his book.  I think I posted that along with a few other tidbits in my mini review a while back.   While I am anti-tat, I can say that Dorian's didn't distract from his physique.  Roelly, Priest, and some others shouldn't even be allowed on stage with their bodies looking like the stall door of a interstate restroom.

Another 5’10 guy, which isn’t tall at all, arguing about another sub 5 ft guy, only in bbing

Tall is 6’4 and above, 6’2 is where it starts

He was actually just chuckling about it and not arguing. Just throwing a dig at Labrada for being a whiny/teller...

 Actually  back in the late 70s oscar state ( in charge of ifbb judging ) even  had it in the rules that ALL contestants would be marked down if they had tattoos!!! So lee was right and also lee had a better build that Dorian as far as asthetics and what a bodybuilder was supposed to look like.
