How-Many-Pro-Bodybuilders-Retired-On-Top

by Christian Duque

When I stop to think about the Totally Awesome Lee Haney I think about a variety of things that make him earn that title. I want to tell you something, as a bodybuilding writer and as a bodybuilding fan, I make a conscious decision whether or not I’m going to call an athlete by their nickname. Sometimes it’s a nickname they think up on their own, other times it’s a nickname that’s given to them by people. Maybe you use the nickname, maybe you don’t. I’m not going to call someone The Lion of Lebanon unless they were the greatest bodybuilder out of Lebanon of their day. Samir is that guy! The same thing goes for The Totally Awesome Lee Haney. Why is he totally awesome? Was it a product of his physique? Was it a product of his work ethic in the gym? Or was it something else? Was it a collection of things?

It should come as no surprise that Hunter won Italy. There really wasn’t a lot of competition there and even though the top five did a good job of bringing quality physiques as we predicted they would, nobody was really any sort of a match for Hunter’s. I know that there is a camp that suggests that Andrea could have won and maybe he could have in a different lineup, but Labrada was too much. In fact I have no doubt he could have done very well with lesser quality guys but when you’re up against a guy like Hunter that has competed on the biggest stages in the world, you have to really bring it.
