Francois placed 2nd in Heavyweights at ‘93 USA

Bodybuilding in the 90s was so much better than every other time in its history. The striations and detail along with small waists, just my opinion but bodybuilding as a sport peaked right there with Yates in 93 and slowly went downhill from there.

agree, dennis wolf looked good and dexter jackson , but jay cutler as mr olympia will always baffle me

I hate to say this, but it looks like we don’t have the same taste in men and this upsets me slightly.

We do not.  Dennis Newman was too standard looking for me; you can have him.  I could name a dozen guys that were much more attractive: Phil Hernon, Armin Scholz, Chris Cormier, Dave Fisher, Jim Quinn, even Greg Kovacs….

What about Ian Harrison?

Francois was very good, only problem was his lats were high which gave him somewhat of a long waist syndrome. So his structure was just so-so. It does seem like a Mr O needs that back, historically.

I saw both him and Dorian guest pose in 96.  At the time it felt like they were pushing Mike as the next Dorian.  Don't let pictures fool you, Mike was impressive but not on Yates level.
