Anyone feel nasser was an uncrowned mr O?

No he isnt an uncrowned Olympian.I have the VHS Tape, the Flex mag 97 December issue with the report, the scorecard etc
Dorian Yates still beat him in 5 of the 7 compulsories.
Nasser won the FDB and Abs thigh poses,from the side and rear he got beat .
Nasser was a beast though, if he had brought his 96 European Tour version in the 97 Olympia he MIGHT have beaten the 97 incarnation of Dorian, but he was smaller , softer and had started to use site enhancement by 97.

I remember Nasser, he looked great but Dorian was better imo

[Screwtape]

He just didn't have the detail in his back that Dorian did.

[Widenymous]

Maybe. But ive always thought he had had overdeveoped rear delts.

Dude Dorian's back is still a landmark.

ALWAYS wanted a pullover machine like that.

edit: I just googled Nasser 1997 Mr Olympia, and Nasser was hands down bigger and better.

He was a monster but at the end of the day no one could touch Dorian from the back side

Nasser went out on a limb once and was quoted as calling Dorian “backzilla”

No he wasnt, Yates beat him on FLS/SC/ST/BDB/BLS= 5/7 compulsories
Its true that in the FLS and ST he gap was closer than in previous years but Yates still edged it out.Go watch Nasser's routine in the finals, he didnt even hit the side triceps pose,and in the final posedown he hit a side chest next to Yates and he was killed .Plus he avoided Yates almost the whole posedown..
Nasser was bigger but in the arms/delts quads , I think he was about 5 lb heavier overall, but not as hard/dense especially from the side and rear.
The hq tape shows it better, the Flex mag report confirms it .

Agree Yates was simply in another league from the rear. Maybe Ronnie had a better BDB but BLS and back relaxed i dont think anyone can touch Dorian of say 95 O or 96 German GP.
