People That Should Have Been Mr.Olympia

[Line]

Sigh.... what years should they have won?

People responding to the OP without reading the rest of the thread? I'm shocked!

 

[Rocky]

Greg Kovacs should have won.

 

[Adam23]

Kevin Levrone should've won the 2002 olympia

 

[Line]

Kevin Levrone should've won the 2002 olympia

Not with his legs and back the way they were.

 

[Pickle]

008- Phil Heath
2007- Victor Martinez
2006- Ronnie Coleman
2002- Gunter schlierkamp
2005- Gunter sclierkamp

Here's mine: Flex Wheeler, Shawn Ray and Kevin Levrone. All of these at least once.

And based on last year; Victor Martinez. But especially those three who never won the title. It's too early to say if Victor will win the title...

 

[Daniel Andersson]

2008- Phil Heath
2007- Victor Martinez
2006- Ronnie Coleman

2008 - Wouldn't mind at all
2007 - Yes
2006 - nOO

 

[Maxmonzter]

in my mind Lou was kinda stupid cuz he chose acting instead of bbing so he could have been 76,77,78,79 mr olympia

my list is:
-shawn ray
-flex wheeler
-kevin levrone

shawn had that eye pleasing physique not a mass monster as dorian and ronnie are, same goes for flex he was taller and just about perfect

shawn was more complete than flex and just awesome in everyway should have won a mr.o title in the 90´s era

 

[Napol3onator]

kevin, flex, shawn, and greg valentino

 

[lifterdead]

Shawn Ray, for sure, in 94 or 96 when he took second to Yates.
Personally, I'm a HUGE Yates fan but Shawn just looked so much better.......



That, and this ad in Flex, circa 96', was what first drew me to bodybuilding.....

 

[Oloz]

IMO, levrone.

 

[Line]

It's great to see we can post, read each other's comments, and have an evolved conversation within a thread...oh wait.

 

[lifterdead]

Remember,

This is what Shawn came second to in 96'.
damn. can't seem to attach the file I wanted. Balls. Anyways, just compare vids/pics of Yates Vs Ray in 96, I think it's clear Yates had ruined his physique by then.

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Lou and Vic for sure

 

[Prote]

Flex, Levrone and Priest

 

[Tonka]

no doubt priest is good but his chest is too small.

 

[Prote]

no doubt priest is good but his chest is too small.

I don't argue about that, but every other part of his body is really close to perfect. His shortness is also one thing, but in my opinion he has the most aesthetic body ever seen on bodybuilding stage.

1977 - Robby Robinson
1978 - Robby Robinson

1980 - Mike Mentzer (he was absolutely robbed this year)

They seem good but roonie being Mr 0 in 2006 wouldn't be right.

I posted a long analysis dealing with that competition and the shape/mass paradox and came to the logical conclusion that the only winner outside of Ronnie would have been Victor. I'm too lazy to dig that up now.

In any event, I feel his pick for Levrone winning in 2000 was unrealistic due to how far and beyond Ronnie was in terms of back and leg development.
