МИСТЕР ОЛИМПИЯ 1980
The 1980 Mr. Olympia was a professional IFBB bodybuilding contest held on October 4, 1980, at the Sydney Opera House in Sydney, Australia. For the first time since 1973, the competition was held in a single weight category, as the lightweight division was abolished, and all 16 competitors competed together regardless of weight.
The event became one of the most controversial in bodybuilding history. Arnold Schwarzenegger, while training for his role in "Conan the Barbarian," unexpectedly came out of retirement and applied to compete just one day before the contest, having trained for only eight weeks. Defending three-time champion Frank Zane competed following a serious injury, maintaining his muscle definition but having lost some mass. Other top contenders included Mike Mentzer, Chris Dickerson, and Boyer Coe, making the competition very intense.
Ultimately, Schwarzenegger was declared the winner with a total of 300 points (295 main points plus 5 additional points for the posedown). His main rivals, Dickerson and Zane, scored 292 and 291 points respectively. The decision caused mixed reactions: Dickerson jumped off the stage exclaiming, "I can't believe it!" Mentzer and Coe tied in points for fourth place, but fifth was awarded to Mentzer, a decision he believed was politically motivated. The total prize money was $50,000. This victory was Schwarzenegger's seventh Mr. Olympia title, after which he officially retired from professional bodybuilding.
