    Nasser seemed better to my eye in 1997

    How can they disqualify you for an injury that makes no sense whatsoever all they can do is mark you down for the imperfections 🤦🏼‍♂️

      He wasn’t. I love how everyone shows the front double but Dorian was so much better in side Tricep, the lat shots and the back double. It’s hard to accept that for many people

      @@Furor_Teutonicus14maybe but not side or back so what’s the point? The front may sell magazine covers but they’re not any more important than the sides or back. Sorry to the people who think Nasser was robbed. He’s lucky to have beaten Shawn Ray for 2nd with all the synthol he was using

      ​@@connorclarke1218 Nasser had better front and side shots, dorian only won in back shots, and even then it was close. Dorian didnt deserve anything above 5th place.
      And nasser didnt use synthol until the 2000s late in his career

      @@thehomefront1905 Nasser just didn’t look better than Yates when they were next to each other. He didn’t have the pop. Nasser had better flow and a tighter midsection, better arms. But Mr Olympia is not won body part by body part. It’s the entire package and Yates is unbeatable perhaps against anybody in the history of the sport

      No it was Dorian at his biggest and he was conditioned. That’s lights out, game over. Nasser can have all the insertions and synthol volume but he wasn’t beating Dorian here. Chris Aceto said Dorian convincingly won. Nasser has the back of a men’s physique compared to Diesel

    No one is mentioning synthol use, do you honestly think Nasser never used it?

    • @danielhicks4826
      @danielhicks4826 Před 2 měsíci

      Yes he essentially admits it by default in his interview by not flat out rejecting the question then saying 95 percent use it, he included himself in that by default, that being said its always lame and gay and pointless cause these guys every single one of them work hard and are bloody amazing and never ever need it and it always makes them look worse always without exception, Steroids is one thing and of course thats always gonna be bad enough, but they need need to make a test to test for synthol outright fast and efficient and not allow that crap like ab etching either which I know dang well some of these guys are also doing, it simply takes away from the countless thousands of legit hours they put in, now obviously a guy like Nasser did it specifically post 2001 in his older post prime days can usually tell with those weird awkward shoulder "things" the question is how much did he if any and other elites use in there primes even, that will simply never ever know unfortunately its literally unknowable without full admissions from every single athlete. As for Nasser did he probably deserve to win 1 or at best 2 Mr Olympias? yes, was 99 percent of his physique a result of legendary hard work and training day after day year after year? yes, did he also at least post prime use even synthol and possibly other times as well? yes especially later in his career the last years and likely same with others, is he an objective all time great? yes, all of these are true.

      @danielhicks4826 You make some good points, but just listen to me for a second.
      Nasser is standing next to Dorian in 97, he has atleast 4 obvious body parts full of synthol, Dorian is not at his best, but obviously doesn't use synthol because one of his arms are 2inchs smaller than the other through injury.
      Do you give it to Nasser and reward an obvious synthol user? Just stop for a second and think what that would do to the sport, it would open up the doors for bodybuilders to abuse it even more, is this not common sense to you? Maybe I'm just a really clever son bitch and see things all you amatures don't. Anyway I hope you've learnt something today.

    Nasser looked better. Dorian fans cant keep relying off of the back to justify that he won 2 more olympias than he shouldve....

    • @TheLusianPopa
      @TheLusianPopa Před měsícem

      nassers best 2 poses were front relaxed and front double biceps....those also happened to be Dorians worst poses.
      The only problem here is that there are NINE other poses that are taken into account in the judging process
      3 semi-relaxed poses and 6 mandatories
      Dorian could win at least 4 of the then 7 official compulsories even when injured
      like it or not, the injuries on the left upper arm are NOT visible in the front lat spread, rear lat spread, abs thigh, side chest or side triceps. In the 2 lat spreads and abs thigh the arms are basically irrelevant due to how they are positioned , and in the 2 side poses he simply hits them with the intact right arm....
      and you gotta be plain stupid to think tiny tit shawn ray was ever even close to defeating dorian
      he was giving up 55 lb of muscle and had inferior structure-way shorter, way narrower, long torso w short legs
      now go back to bed

    How arrogant. Just be honest. You are one of the all time greats in bb. It is not a same to admit that in the 97 O. Nasser was in Perfect Shape and that’s why he should have won!
