Arnold Schwarzenegger was determined to live his dream of reigning in the bodybuilding arena when he packed bags for America. Soon he took strides toward winning a spot in the bodybuilding events and secured himself a 7x Mr. Olympia title before quitting the sport. However, his last win in 1980, Mr. Olympia is the most disputed of all.

Once again, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s controversial win in a past bodybuilding competition is under scrutiny as a recent clip from the competition resurfaced on Instagram that drew comments from the bodybuilding community as they questioned the unfair results.

Fans react to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 1980 Olympia win

The Mr. Olympia official Instagram page, Mr. Olympia LLC, shared snippets from the 1980 version of the competition. The clip features Arnie’s striking poses on the Mr. Olympia stage as the crowd cheers for the iconic bodybuilder. However, the online bodybuilding community is not impressed by Arnie’s physique and his ultimate win.

“Not his best year and honestly probably shouldn’t have won,” wrote a bodybuilding fan giving some honest reviews for Schwarzenegger’s seventh Mr. Olympia title winning-physique. “Worst disaster in olympia history,” lamented another follower after witnessing The Austrian Oak’s physique. “Arnold in his worst form ever (1980). Mike Mentzer should have won the title this year… Anyway past is past,” stated another fan while accepting the reality.

“Mike Mentzer was the undisputed winner of that Mr. Olympia!” wrote another fan of the sport, revealing the alternate winning champion for that year. However, Arnie’s admirers still celebrated the legend’s physique from 1980 and a fan wrote, “Arnold Schwarzenegger is the father of bodybuilding.” Even Mike Mentzer questioned the Pumping Iron icon’s win in the 1980 championship.

Mr. Heavy Duty secured his Mr. Olympia win at the 1979 competition under the ‘over 200 lbs category’ and came for the 1980’s competition to lift the Sandow trophy. However, the sudden appearance of Arnie on the stage left the crowd and fellow bodybuilding competitors perplexed.

Before anyone realized what happened, Arnold Schwarzenegger won his seventh Mr. Olympia title. This disheartened Mike Mentzer, and he once said, “There is no way Arnold Schwarzenegger deserved to win in 1980, not even close.”

The 1980 Mr. Olympia competition is still a matter of contention among the bodybuilding community. However, Schwarzenegger moved on from the competitive arena of the sport and built his legacy in his acting career.
