Was Louie Cheated in 75?....

[abolish the weak]

3rd was more than fair, and he probably only got that because of the hype magazines printed off long b4 the show even took place. Arnolds arms had way more peak, and arnolds legs had more speration, also tighter waistline and better abs. Lou was bigger but blockier. Serge Nubret was fucking sick with it. I think you guys better go look at some of his pics, www.sergenubret.com Serge was smart back then, many of the bodybuilders came to Serge for advice on diet and water drop/ last week show prep. If there was anybody experimenting with state of the art before its time shit it was Serge Nubret. Guys legs never dialed in like his upper body but that fucker was sliced beyond sliced.

Louie lacked a lot but in some shots he was just as massive as Arnold (upperbody) but Arnold's chest striations were so developed. Don't forget Louie got calf implants in the 80s. In 1975 my calves were probably as big as his. His back was lacking. No one ever thought he should've won the show. This poll is a first. But upper body was massive, but biceps did not have Arnold's peak either -- no one since that I can think of did either (have Arnold's biceps).

At least in my opinion he was....

Third place? He looks close to what todays pro's look like. Big, and thick. I don't think he should have been number 1, because Arnold had more of a presence, if that makes sense. But number two for sure. Look at Surge Nubret! With legs like that, he shouldn't have even been allowed on stage. He looks like those ab doers on the cover of "men's health' or some crap like that. I think Louie was cheated, and should have at least taken second place. Who else thinks he was cheated?

On another note, whats up with his father? What a prick. Talk about living through your son. Lou seems so lonely, and his dad just sits back and takes credit for it all: "we want it" "when we are up there" "when we hit that stage" "what a work out (like he did anything)" what was with all the we's? And the best "I had an old set in the cellar, i used to do a little bit of it myself" So, his dad pretty much takes credit for it all. I read something Lou wrote, about his father abusing him mentally, I believe it! I think if it wasn't for his father, Louie would have went a lot farther in the sport. What a shame....

I definitely dont think he should have one,,,2nd place,,,maybe.

Louie looked like half a Hulk last September (2007) at the Olympia Expo.
He's showing his age, like everyone does sooner or later.

for his age and size lou is still in fantastic shape, but from what i've read and understand he's a bit of an a**hole, from treating his brother like crap to making fans pay for a picture with him.

LOL, it's true about the pictures.
Every year I take several of him (not with him) and I can see it's pissing him off. I've been doing this for a least 5 years.

I think third in relation to Serge Nubret and Arnold Schwarzenegger looked correct. He lacked the symetry and cuts of Nubret and lacked the symetry and torso thickness of Schwarzenegger.
