Enough is enough, Arnold was the biggest guy on stage, Mentzer at 5'7 looked like Tattoo from fantasy island standing next to him and deserved 5th right behined Roger Walker (who got screwed) and Frank Zane got the biggest gift of the night, he shouldn't have been in the top 5.
Mentzer looks small and narrow next to Arnold and Roger.

More annoying BS is the reports that Zane was so disgusted at the results that he smashed his trophy in the parking lot after the show. First off if Zane really did that then he is delusional, the fact is Zane looked like Garbage and was given a giant gift from the judges.
Seriously how the hell did Zane get third?
And look at Arnolds "weak" legs. They're twice as big as Zanes!

Roger Walker should have beat Mentzer and Zane who were both given gifts that night (particuarly Zane). But Roger shouldn't have been any higher than second or third cause Arnold just dwarfed him and everybody else on stage.
Check out how much bigger Arnolds guns are compared to Boyer Coe's in that last pic.

Roger Walker always seemed to get screwed. He was a greeat bodybuilder that never really got his due respect.
I will admit that Arnold looks better in most of those shots.. I wish we could watch the entire contest.Certitude is the enemy of wisdom.

i think, when compared to they guys he was next to on stage the exact same reasons ronnie overcomes his abs (which are genetic) is the same reason arni does too. size wise and even condition wise for the most part he takes the stage as seen in the pics above.
plus i love any excuse to post those freakishly awesome pics of ron.___________________________________________________________

I guess the same time a Back did...OR...Lats...OR...Legs...OR...Arms..Every year these body parts are picked apart as who had the best and people saying " well this person should have won cause they had better xxxx part"..
FOR me..if you dont have the best abs "the one thing every single pro should have a 6pk" then you lose points. Does that mean that Arnold shouldnt have won? NO, he clearly is larger and more detailed then pretty much anyone there.

wow these pics are awesome
From seeing short vids, it looked to me like Arnold won... and now after seeing pics, it's painfully obvious that Arnold won.
Zane looks shockingly bad... and for having a reputation as one of the most elegant posers, well, let's just say he looks half retarded. Then we have Mentzer looking more narrow than a light post with a chest shallower than a wading pool.
Z00mggg teh judges favrited Arnuld cuz hes more cool than us
