Who Was The True Runner Up To Arnold In 1975? *Franco Columbu vs Serge Nubret*

[@pkudey]

Thank you my friend. I believe the judges would have most likely picked Franco as well.

[@ΑθανάσιοςΕυσταθίου-ε7υ]

Too massive and thick for Nubret.Defenetely franco wins.

[@MrJames-eb6rp]

I doubt it. Nubret has bigger arms, smaller waist looks more graceful.

[@bobbydemarko]

wow that was really good! I love the build up for the great ending! Franco's delt was really built! Gosh I wish the guys today would hit the side chest like this, with a nice 70's bow, bough, booo, (spelling?)

"marx marx muscle mansion or... trailer" ah ah, that made me laugh. Yeah hard to tell. I'm not a leg man but those of nubret looked really weak. Supposedly nubret was looking awesome a few weeks before the show, enough to be a threat to arnold. Then the IFBB decided he was not allowed to compete only to let him enter the competition at the last moment. During that interval, nubret had lost many pounds of muscle. Whether it's true or not, I don't know but one thing is sure, due to the filming of pumping iron, there was much politics at play around this contest.

Yes, Danny Padilla was kicked off the USA Mr. Universe team at the last minute so they could have 2 heavyweights(Waller and Katz). There were a lot of shenanigans.

Serge has an interview on YT explaining the whole ordeal

[@localreviewking134]

Franco, i think he just years ago walked past a gym window Arnold was in and just starting training and gaining then winning

[@itsgleneaton4883]

This might have been the only draw in bodybuilding history.

[@ignatziusturret5641]

Very interesting. I hear you and buy your argumentation. But, for me, Serge is more asthetic and looks more attractive.

[@lionsinofprideescanor8709]

I gotta say without any doubt that in 1975 the second best was indeed Franco Columbu..

[@sauli776]

i dont understand the hype about franco i mean he didnt look good on stage like no aesthetics

[@MP-pz9oe]

Between the two eternal second place , Franco wins. How about Serge vs. Sergio ?

[@michealgreforcyk3095]

Franco hands down

[@ArshadAli-gh4wu]

Franco's weakness was thighs with lack of seperation. Serge had weak calf's.

[@bastianmaoro8278]

For me, Nubret won the 75 "tall man" but overall = Franco, better than Arnold also.

[@davidward5225]

I love Franco, but he should never have won a Mr. Olympia.

[@jeffreystinger]

DO ONE WITH AN ALL-ROUND; ALL YEARS; SERGE NUBRET VS AKA THE OAK; ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER....I FEEL THIS TO BE A GREAT OVERALL LOOK AT THESE TWO AMAZING, AWESOME, BODYBUILDERS!!!💪🏼💉🧬🏋🏻‍♀️🇺🇸😷

[@petrnovak3492]

Are you on drugs? Mass doesn't mean all (especially in waist area)!!! Franco had wide waist, and overall very ugly physique 😖... He was the most overrated Mr.Olympia ever!!! Serge looked MUCH better in every pose. Franco was powerlifter, but Serge was true bodybuilder. Not only blocky Hulk... His chest, traps, delts and arms had much better shape and fullness. His body with small joints and little waist looked like greek statue and not like box! His picures here are definitelly not from his best size and shape...

[@ignatziusturret5641]

Exactly.

[@MP-pz9oe]

Thats your idea about masculine beauty

[@shaunigothictv1003]

Excellent analysis @Petr

[@MrJames-eb6rp]

Facts.
