  • Shawn got screwed so many times>

  • Normal persons who are not into bb can admire this guy cause he really looks awesome > perfect physique!

    This is what bb should be about - about beauty of the body!

    P.S. FUCK DORIAN YATES!!! > bloated asshole!

  • Shawn has the most perfect physique among all the body-builder's to date!

  • My favourite bodybuilder. But did you know he's 5'7?

  • O melhor !! Shawn Ray....

  • Fuck Dorian Yates!

  • dorian is still better,

  • hands down the most perfectly proportioned bodybuilder since the great Arnold Schwarzenegger

  • Dorian was great until he started looking like shyte!

  • Amazing...absolutely stunning

  • BEST BODY EVERMADE!!! this is what I called BODYBUILDING!!! amazing!!

  • If I may, would you please stop playing this sorry ass music? Anyway, I agree with ahmadhamad. Also, Dorian Yates, I always thought, had the most blockiest body in the sport and Flex, Shawn and Kevin should have won over him a long time ago. Also, I couldn't believe Dorian even beat Lee Haney! That's nuts!

  • The total package Shawn Ray.

  • nobody can fuck with that midsection

  • This is the smallest pro bodybuilder I have ever seen

  • If Sugar Shawn was competing today, he would be kicking every ones tush!! The man still has a good physique till this day!! The Best to ever do it...

  • the man still has an awesome physique!

  • i think if his back was a little thicker he wouldve won mr O

  • What kills me is those wheels at 2:45 .. daaaaamn!.. dry as a bone and just f'n chiseled.. how he doesn't have an "O" is just a travesty to the sport.. just sayin'..

  • his lower body matches his upper body perfectly even his calves.

  • yeah man he was robbed in 94...its a dam shame b/c of politics

  • That's for the people who are curious but great vid though :)

  • The song that is playing is Intro by Staind

  • Even Dorian was down on this guy BUT i always thought he looked great.

  • This guy has a beautiful body, its in proportion, very well balanced, and the abs.....those are some chiselled wash boards.

  • Just like Prettyemofreak said ; Not too bulky, he had a much more natural look! great body!

  • Shawn Ray has one of the very few PERFECT physiques on the Planet.

    Size, mass, symmetry, definition, vascularity, proportionality, what the f*** more can I say.

  • @haroon777 I agree,he was one of the best if not the best,also Kevin Levrone had similar body and no one else

  • el culturismo es pura hipocresia. saludos

  • who sings this songs

  • this is the shape we all try for just the right size everything looks right top shape for the beach

  • Song: Staind - Intro

  • Song: Staind - 14 Shades of Grey

  • he looks fuckin spectacular

  • Shawn Ray is a born-again Christian and lives for the Lord now. He is a tremendous inspiration to other Christian athletes who choose to put Jesus Christ first and humble themselves before the mighty hand of the Living God in an environment of tremendous vanity and arrogance. God bless you Shawn and may God get the glory!

  • Dorian yates said at a seminar I went to that Shawn Ray was a baby. That he didn't want to lift heavy weights to get bigger. Shawn had a great body but he just wasn't big enough, especially standing beside Dorian.

  • @JaKeth3snake At that level, its about medication not weights. Dorian used crazy amounts of growth hormone and insuline which Shawn didn't. Just compare the waists.

  • @arpussupra how the hell do you know he used insulin?

  • @arpussupra at this level it is about pureley pefection, because at this level they are nearly all at the same medication......

  • this guy was phenomenal the best bodybuilder since haney!!!

  • I think Shawn should of taken his matters up with the judges and not to the BBing media to bitch about it. It's not like Dorian was up the Weider family's arse like Arni was in the 70s because Dorian was always in England training and let his body do the talking on the day.

    Still, Shawn was a fantastic bodybuilder, amazing waist, awesome abs and super blessed with being that vascular. One of my favourites.

  • one word pussy

  • damn.. vascular as fuck.. low lats.. huge chest.. always conditioned.. tiny waist.. def one of the greatest..

  • he's the last olympia bbuilder with a real abdomen area(end of a great generation)

  • @3DiegoF lee priest also still has a really good waist

  • he's the last olympia bbuilder with a real stomach (end of a great generation)

  • Music name?

  • Awesome video and Awesome Awesome Awesome Bodybuilder. He's my idol.

  • HE IS ONE OF THE BEST BODYBUILDERS OF ALL TIME............

  • @zarxxx I second this

  • Man look at those abs!

  • Dorian yates has no opinion. NOBODY CARES ABOUT ANYTHING

  • shawn ray kicks ass

  • Shawn Ray, Flex Wheeler, & Kevin Levrone all deserved to win at least 1 fucking Mr. Olympia title.

  • @ahmadhamad TRUE that!

  • @ahmadhamad those r my faves too man. There body type is the most pleasing to the eye. Isnt that what the olympia all about?(rhetorical question)

  • @ahmadhamad Which one's (years) exactly? What year do you believe Ray, Flex and Levrone should have had their "at least" one Mr. O title?

  • @ahmadhamad dorian took it all  : /

  • @ahmadhamad , Yea too bad the Mr. Olympia contest has had the same damn block-headed judges for the past 20 years lol

  • @ahmadhamad I totally agree with you man. They where all in very good shape back in the day.

  • this is the best form ive ever seen!! today all pro bodybuilders have a big stomache with sixpack :d thats shit!

    BUT THIS IS AMAZING!

  • Les meilleurs bodybuilders jusqu'alors sont pour moi : 1° kevin Levrone 2° Flex Weeler 3° Shawn Ray

     4° Dexter Jackson

  • what staind song is this

    

  • @PJDY6 Staind - Intro

  • he actually LOOKS like arnold but BIGGER

  • Mr. Olympia sin corona..

  • what type of pants are those tight ones?

  • That dude in the back is a dumb fuck... he could have trained with Shaw Ray!! and most likely didnt lol

  • i love dorian yates and the way he trains, but shawn def had a better physique. Shawn, levrone and flex should of won the olympia a couple of times at least

  • Somebody explain to me, why is steroids is "bad" for our bodies, and people are still taking them. I am not bringing anybody down who is taking it. But I am bulking up myself but want to get info on it. I may or may not take it.

  • @kpoz7 Look it up only then will you understand. Whatever you learn only your opinn will count.

  • Fair comment too, how did Yates win so many times with that mangled arm? Please no comments about how good his back was. It has more to do with the lack of rotation of judges that the same guys can keep on winning when they don't deserve to.

  • I have followed Shawn Ray his whole career and think he is the greatest bodybuilder never to win the Mr. Olympia. I hope Shawn KNOWS he will always go down as the best regardless of never 'winning' the Mr. Olympia. Aesthetically speaking, Shawn's physique sets the standard of what bodybuilders should look like...A PERFECT Model.

  • @NavViiMusic Him and Levrone,, I would say Wheeler but he too much shit pumped into his calves.

  • the song n video both are amazing! 5/5 dude

  • lol 2:33 thats funny! Dang this song has grown on me... ive got to have it

  • whats this song called??

  • nothing beats those abs and midsection

  • I like pork chops and apple sauce!!

  • I have always been a big Shawn Ray fan. I think what killed him was we just was not very wide. You look at the past winners who kept winning Haney, Yates, and Coleman. All had enourmous backs. I think Dorian early on in his career was unbeatable when in great condition and without his injuries. However, Dorian did get worse every year. I think Shawn should have won in 96 for sure. The judges still today just want pure size and seem to care less about symmetry.

  • Ray,Kevin and Flex were the creme de la creme! It`s too bad Dorian was considered better. If these 3 were competing today they would be in the top 10 of BB!

  • @realestatefla1 actually real, Ray, Flex, and Kev would not make the top three because they dont do Growth hormone. Keep in mind that when weider owned the IFBB, he kept a strong hand on bodybuilders using growth hormone. He knew that GH distended midsections. when Weider sold all rights to the IFBB and contests to Time Warner,those people told the athletes to use whatever they wanted to come in freaky big. The era of the stomach began and all bets are off.

  • @blackshogun77 You`re probably right. Today,guys like Martinez,Warren, Wolf,Cutler,Greene, and Heath rule the current BB scene. Others like Khan are glorified as being powerful. Sadly, the Brothers W have cashed in and the art of BB is a thing of the past. I`ve stopped buying magazines years ago, because of the blatant nonsense,lies and total misinformation these magazines supply to the masses today...The ear of BB ended in the early 90`s... Too bad it did... The sport suffers for it.

  • Shawn Ray is the epitome of Bodybuilding.

  • this guy is probably the best I mean not bulky and nasty to where he cant put his arms down but still HE'S HUGE.

  • Remember the name.

  • Shawn Ray is a winer but i have to agree completely with everything he said.

  • i know you would like to suck his dick, i know, i know.

  • superpredator shut your bitch ass up bitch

  • shawn ray and lee priest are definitly my favs..... and maybe kai greene who has got a great future.... at least i hope so

  • Shawn Ray is da man n one of tha greatest bodybuilders of all time.

  • Flex weiller had a very good body too the thing with kenneth he wines to much, he is also a good martial artist in the years gone by. As for shaun ray the only guys that beat him in the mr O was lee haney i think rich gaspari and a few more. In those day guys like ron coleman was finishing 7th and 8th. I think it was his steriod use that got him into trouble he was tested +ve once and he never got the chance to win the big O. However i think he is the best spokes person for the sports.

  • @forrest2city

    There are only two bodybuilders that he never beat in his entire career, Dorian Yates and Lee Haney, and, as far as I'm concerned, he beat them both.

    If Shawn never won the Olympia because he tested positive in 1990, then that's bullshit, they're all on stuff.

  • @drwdak drwk, in 1990, weider was trying to clean up the sport so he tested the event. Alot of people failed the tests because they didnt ease back on the roids soon enough. Even Lee Lebrada failed. And the bodybuilders couldn't come in contest in their top conditions. Weider restored the non test policy simply because he was afriad of loosing money

  • @blackshogun77 Lee Labrada never failed any of the drug tests

  • his HEIGHT AND WIGHT may have be the reason he never won MR O. HE HAD ONE OF THE MOST SYMETRIC BODY EVER!

  • @superpredatorr who caaarreesssss! Steriods or not they go thru as much pain as someone whos natural they just get bigger n look more hectic!

  • this guys looks so awsome its sick

  • There are only a few Bodybuilder which was better then him: Coleman, Haney, Arnold and sometimes Yates. The best Body of all times for me.

  • bout levrone..? he wass biiiiggg n great shape

  • Yeah I would put Kevin Levrone above Ray.

    Although Ray's triceps rival those of Levrones.

    Levrone is just a genetic freak

  • gone of the greatest of all time.

  • Shawn should be a 2 time Mr.O. --- To me, Top 10 bodybuilder of ALL Time

  • easily top 5

  • Like the vid, and like the man, he was quality, great shape and size

  • Man SR has the perfect body,... sux he never one the O. But in the highly political world of BB,.. nothing is as it seems.

  • pink floyds welcome to the machine'' would have probaly been a better soundtrack to this vid,co's thats what ray is?a machine.....fine speciman of a human

  • His rear double Bicep shot at the end was very very good,,,the best shot in this vid

    nice vid

  • ur right, amazing footage

  • Who sings this song is it staind? And what is the titile?

  • staind intro

  • @666seth is that the name of this song?

  • I have to say that i really like the way you combined this music, video and voice of Shawn Ray...

  • he was nearly flawless,just as bit narrow compared with other guys of his era.but for a 205lb bb he fitted in with monsters without looking small.all this waffle about him not training hard,i dont ever remember him having any serious injurys.he was so consistant.he's a consistant talker too.saw him in seminar and sent most of the punters asleep lol,he looked fantastic though

  • one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time

  • There are 2 separate wurlds in bodbildin. Drug free and Usin and neither understands the other. Recuperation is FUCKIN VITAL but the user says 'got it covered!' Sum giys av no idea wot drug free iz. Noffin against guys on it ut admit u can only train that way coz of gear

  • i've been lifting for 5 years now and have gained 65 pounds since beggining. i trained natural for a few years then juiced a few times. juice just intesifyes your load. you eat more, train harder, lift heavier, ect. you for sure accomplish more juicing it. I would recommend steroids to anyone whos serious about training and has been training natural for a few years

  • @harryscrotum007 but its not easy to find sources of juices, especially in countries like Singapore where i live in.

  • @IamBernieZhzh just go to 7-11 and buy some orange juice

  • @IamBernieZhzh

    why dont you buy online?that s what i do and it work fine..i dont live in Spore(been there though i love it) so i dont know how tight the immigration is but i dont think it cant be worse than other countries like US where ppl still do that..

  • @harryscrotum007

    Sport should be a positive, healthy thing. With steroids you turn it into a negative.

    There are natural limits of each body, try to reach them by training as hard as you can - then you can be proud of the results regardless.

  • @harryscrotum007 just watch out for U juice u will see bad side of it a after 10 or 15 years i know what im talking about cose my dad Was Bodybuilder but u right after few yers u can try it never on u first yers

  • @harryscrotum007 Do you keep your gains if you still train after taking steroids or will you lose them unless you do the ocasional cycle?

  • @deolm big part of that is just how hard you train and diet and how seriuos you are about it you will retain the most and never stop training takeing juise or not

  • @harryscrotum007 Okay, cheers. :)

  • @deolm If u keep training hard and eat right you will with the right post cycle treatment. But only if your gains are within what would be natural possible for you. if you go higher u probably lose quite a bit in the long term.

  • @ozzzzzzzzzzzz Okay, I'll keep that in mind. Cheers bro.

  • @harryscrotum007 I like the fact that you're being honest about your druguse, yet I question on of your statement - you would recommend a 17 year old who's been training serious for 2-3 years to do roids?

  • @hellere10banditters dont do it, man. just train hard and after 6-7 years if u wanna turn pro or compete go to a good doctor and think about it. ur too young and unexperienced for roids. good luck. Ive been training with weights since 1990 but im a martial artist, not a bodybuilder

  • @giugnhgbvinierngvb89 Mate, I am not gonna do roids ;) I am doing fine without them. thanks for the concern anyway

  • @harryscrotum007 I like the fact that you're being honest about your druguse, yet I question one of your statement - you would recommend a 17 year old who's been training serious for 2-3 years to do roids?

  • @harryscrotum007 what is juiced? thank you

  • @harryscrotum007 done that a few times to , all what has left is my heart condition

  • @harryscrotum007 Great dude, your awesome man ;)

  • Listen guys, not becoming mister O doesnt mean hes not a successful BB. Ray was is and will be one of the all time greats. For his hight, he is absolutely massive. Any bigger will look weird and it would detract from his aesthetic symmetry. He trains for quality now and that takes medium weights for a better pump, not heavy and sloppy. He has been one of the most sought after model bodybuilders with numerous contracts and endorsements and has been photographed more than most for decades now.

  • no he is not massive ive seen im in person.Needed to make dramatic improvments 2 win Olym. Adin size in rite places wud giv dramatic physique wiv iz smal waist.Can mr o be a guy who no longa bodybuilds?Not gud role model but u rite - awesome fizik but thik.Why train twice a day, six days a week for no improvement?Had best genetix around but 'head in sand' approach. Steroids stopped im thinkin straight. U min balance? Symetri is 1 side mirorin ova. Wi shud dat change wiv size in rite places? x

  • Ray doesnt know the meaning of training hard, just watch any of his vids, he talks intensity but is too scared of the hard work, 20 sets, 6 days a week means no improvements, he never learnt!

  • Yeah, his workouts are so weak, which is why he is so small, duh.

  • You avin a bad day or wot Snake? Never sed he was small. He talks intensity but doesnt deliver, thought he might have got the message during his career, top three aint good enough for a guy wi his potential, but afraid o hard work. Training 6 days a week 2 times a day, the result are no improvements! Great physique but a lost opportunity!

  • I didn't say you said he was small. But "his afraid of hard work because he workouts 6 days a week." That is a very stupid thing to say. Yeah, real lazy, isn't he and his lazy way of training clearly hasn't worked for him has it, because he is rail road thin, isn't he, sheesh.

  • I know guys who go to the gym every day, wouldnt call any of them hard trainers. If you watch his workouts there is no intensity. It does not have to be a HIT workout for me but working out the way Shawn did left no opportunity for growth, the steroids he was taking only allowed him to work out that frequently. Shawn had an outstanding physique and its very disappointing that his lack of thought means he didnt reach his potential

  • It left no opportunity for growth because you do not have super genes and are not on the juice, doesn't mean it doesn't work. Just means that you have to find something that works for you.

    Maybe HIT works for a few people, but if it does, doesn't mean it will work for everyone, because it doesn't, no way. Which is why I'm pissed of at Mentzer for saying his way will work for everyone.

  • Gotta admit to you Snake that MM talked some crap, mainly in saying that an individual could reach their potential in 12 months using HIT, clearly complete crap otherwise we would have pro bodybuilders in every gym. But he did modify his ideas and did come up with some quality comments but you gotta have that to the death mentality for it to work for you.

    On Shawn, he has phenominal genes but making 90% of your potential = no Mr O

  • The one year thing always makes me laugh. He also made it seem or at least try to make it seem that HIT is THE only way to train and nothing else would work. That's bull-shit and that's just yet another one of the problems that I have with Mike Mentzer.

  • sorry guys but it will. You have to adjust for u. Ultra hard trainin is needed, especially if u bin training a few years. You need 2 b progressive, handlin evier waits so as stresses increse YOU MUST compensate. This is a FACT. Evri needs 2 judge their own time off between workouts. Sum may need 3 days, others 10 days. HIT does not mean countless forced reps n negativs. That is the old heavy duty. New cannot be argued wiv. Laws of intensity n recuperation?Challenge em logically if can

  • he didnt reach his potential?? take a look at ray in 1987 when he first got his pro card and look at him in 1997..those are improvements..so I would say yes his way of training most certainly worked for him..

  • @Rocket3rick you cannot pack too much size on a body frame like SR's or its just out of proportion and looks terrible

  • @Rocket3rick "doesnt know the meaning of training?" His build reveals that he does! Whatever training he did it obviously worked for him! A youtube viewer talking up to a former pro bb'er lol think before you criticize

  • GOSH, HES PERFECT!

  • when my dad worked over in southern california he worked out with this guy

    it was at bull dog gym

    my dad had a tattoo on his arm of it pretty sick haha

  • I agree that Shawn and Kevin had some of the most aesthetically pleasing physiques onstage, however they just didn't have the conditioning that Dorian had which is why they never won the Olympia!!

  • Shawn Ray and Kevin Levrone had the best looking bodys on stage. they did everything the right way and safe way. so much hard work and dedication. tru bb.

  • I love the shawn ray audio commentary. Alot of people think he should have beat Yates. Him and Levrone. Shawn Ray has one of the greatest bodies. of all time...

  • shawn ray is possibly the best short of arnold in the purest sense of the sport if you go by how the sport should be judged shawn wins all of those olympias dorian had nothing but back and calves. any one aspiring to be a bodybuilder should try to mold themselves after shawn not dorian or ronnie

  • Fucc Shawn Ray! I was readin' an old Flex mag and all he did was criticize other people...even the Olympians. Fucc him, he has no humility...and no Sandow to go along with his faggot ass.
