Nick you’re awesome. So objective and real… Love your all videos
In 5 short years from '75 to 80 the sport had evolved drastically. Arnold didn't look his best by any means in this competition as the competitors had become more ripped as well as big. Even in '75 Arnold wasn't as shredded as these guys here in '80. Being a former bodybuilder myself I had always heard about the '80 and '81 Mr. Olympia's being rigged. Just by looking at these videos/photos you can tell that Arnold was NOT the best bodybuilder out there.
By the way, Mentzer was always outspoken about Arnold for those that don;t know and the two had an on again off again love/hate relationship.
Arnold not as massive as when he retired, he was still in great shape for the 1980 Olympia and was the winner. Calves, Back, Abs, Deltoids and biceps still there at this show.
When in doubt . . . beat a dead horse.
I really enjoyed this; for my money, as much as i love Arnold. I think Mike Mentzer had it in Spades!
Judges were clearly Corrupt as Fk
Arnold looks as good or better than the other competitors. And his height puts him over the top. If that’s his worst showing, it just means no one had a chance of beating him in ‘75.
It's the usual Arnold was the man they wanted on the screen on old was in good shape but other guys that work very hard to get on that stage where very good shape to has nothing to do with looks and has something to do with who you know and that's how you get through the door like everything else America's full of baloney sometimes more times than others
Mentzer was clearly better than Arnold. But, nobody outside of the bodybuilding world knew Mike Mentzer, so they gave it to Arnold. He should be ashamed.
After looking at all the comparison pics in this video, I think Arnold won fair and square. The competition was close but Arnold looked a little better that the other competitors.
Don't like the fact that these guys were on roids..that said Zane's size and definition make the size freaks look ridiculous and disgusting.Of course no bodybuilder can hold a candle to Steve Reeves!
Everything in life is fixed.
Never knew about this. Doesn't seem cool that Arnold just showed up and competed out of no where. Seems like a diyack thing to do.
Arny Schnitsengruber rules..Go Arny
Love Arnie but for me Mike Mentzer won the 1980 Mr Olympia.
Arnold was Joe Weider's marketing tool….
I do not understand what the controversy was all about. Apart from Mentzer, no other bodybuilder was in a better shape than Arnold in 1980. If not 1st, Arnold would have been 2nd. Zane was lucky to be 3rd. He shouldn't have been in the top 6.
Ad: enjoy a McDonald’s commercial in Spanish.
Me: I don’t speak Spanish or eat McDonald’s…
What controversy? Its not a real sport.
Smallest I've ever seen Arnold. Looks almost like Frank Zane here.
The Mr Olympia has been as crooked as politician ever since.
Arnold Schwarzenegger said if I don't win I'll be back
Zane should have won…
Not sure if he should have won but he still looked damn good… it’s hard to say it was totally fixed with certainty as I could see him winning regardless.
I really can’t tell how much of it is just due to familiarity but I really feel Arnold still looks like a reasonable pick for winner in that lineup.
It’s a much closer race than it would have been half a decade prior, but still I don’t think this choice necessitates a conspiracy to explain.
I still think Arnold looked better than the other competitors. His upper body at least. His bis were still at the top of his game. His legs obviously were weak not good. But I think looking at it him winning wasn’t that crazy when u compare him to the others.
Wow that sucks . The other guys were piss d , who wouldn’t. E?
Dang Arnold has weak legs
What's the controversy? He had the physique, charisma, appearance, posing routine, the works. That's why he won. He was the best on stage that day. So, what's the controversy?
Legs was Arnold's only body part that was arguable. He had the best CHEST,BACK,BIS,TRIES,SHOULDERS,UPPER TORSO! He smoked everyone that year. Mentzer wasn't even close to winning.
That was worse?
You know Arnold is whispering some bs to try and distract the other guy
I've always been a big Arnold fan his arms are great…. But Lee Priest has the best arms ever even Larry Scott has to take a back seat to him….
arnold wasnt at his best….ok. neither was zane or walker. he was friends with the judges……..really??? all the competitors wereso he couldnt compete because he was 20 years ahead of the curve by promoting shows??.his abs werent sharp…… an dickersons were??? his thighs were small??so were zanes…his leg biceps werent good…..they were never a standout….etcetcetc…. he only trained 8 weeks boohooo. ive heard the (id have won if i had the same drugs arguement} before. its politics??? really….theyre all Weider boys. its just not fair that arnold had a xmas tree low back an vacumm…again booohooooo .he overwhelmingly won 3 of the 8 mandatory poses. an close on 2 others but no one else overwhelmingly won more than 2. the numbers are what they are a lot of the photos show the other competitors relxing in between poses…..really??? thats a nono in this era.
The Terminator said he'll always be back, Astalavista baby😎👀🤦🏻♂️😉
Puto fraude arnold
Still looked the best, Moe man just salty
Most people who know Arnie know what a shark of a person he really is – he's a winner , he gets what he wants. Nice guys don't succeed.(women love bad boys!!)
Arnold at 80 percent of his best still better than the rest and he deserved the hard fought win.
Mentzer was spoiled and acted as a spoiled brat. His chest was thin and his muscles looked the same when he posed. No change unlike Arnold.
jealously is a cruel thing
even at 80% he looked better than the rest when he posed
