Not at his best, but from the pics and vids I've seen and posted in other (older) threads, he deserved the win.

Arnold > all.

I agree with the second part
Arnold > all.

That Olympia, however belonged to Mike Mentzer

I don't get it how can Mentzer be compared to Arnold, even in the 1980 Mr O, this is an insult to The Oak.

Mentzer had a gut in some pics, his back sucked, and his chest is worse than a female bodybuilder. Zane owned him, his 5th place was well deserved.

Exellent vid! First time ever when I see him hitting abs and second time when I see him hitting back lat spread! Those 2 are very rare for Arnold.

Oh and yeah, Mentzer was such a crybaby.

No.. The Olympia belonged to Arnold, only a fool would think Mentzer diserved it. Yes pakiman you are.

If everyone would have said that Zane should've won or that aussie guy Roger Walker (he appears in some pics up there, there is a bdb pose with him and Arnold), then I'd respect that as an opinion, but to say that Mentzer was robbed and he should've won that Olympia, well, this is just retarded to say at least.

What do you say pakiman? it is still Mentzer the "real winner" here? roflmao.

Everytime the 1980 Mr O comes up someone has to say Mentzer was robbed. It is an unwritten forum rule. :rolleyes:

As tkD mentioned there were others that had a better claim on the top spot than Mentzer. But when it came down to it Arnie presented the best package. I always thought that Boyer Coe and Roger Walker looked great. Tom Platz was 9th and yet he looked top 5. I thought Zane looked weird.

There should be an internet rule, and every time when someone says that Mentzer should've won in 1980, they should be automatically banned hehe.

If you watch the original Olympia video from 1980 you can hear the crowd was boooing when Arnold was announced as the winner. The boooing was cencored in the video "The Comeback."
